00:00We've seen a lot of pullback on casino betting online.

00:03It seems like some states are in favor of it,

00:05but actually it feels like it's 50-50.

00:07Some want it, some don't.

00:09We have a new state here that says

00:11we'll pass on casino gambling.

00:13Who is it?

00:14Yeah, New Hampshire was kind of one of those states

00:15that you thought might be able to slip in.

00:17To your point, there was an avalanche

00:20of states legalizing sports betting after PESA.

00:23And now that we've seen a lot of states legalize that,

00:26and you're down to the few states that don't want to,

00:29that we talked about, like Georgia.

00:31Now we're turning the attention,

00:33and the industry's turning the attention to online casino.

00:36You know, the big operators want this.

00:38It's a huge revenue opportunity,

00:40and states are kind of seeing it

00:41as revenue opportunities as well.

00:44But then there's the balance of problem gambling

00:46and responsible gambling and the like.

00:49And New Hampshire was one of those states

00:50that kind of looked like it could be a good chance

00:52to get a state to legalize this.

00:54You know, there's only seven, six or seven,

00:57I can never remember.

00:59But they are tabling it.

01:01The sponsor said, nope, let's not do it this year.

01:04And so we've seen quite a few states introduce it,

01:07quite a few states talk about it a little bit.

01:10But then a lot of lawmakers kind of pumping the brakes,

01:13saying, nope, this is something that we definitely need

01:15to take a deeper look at, a closer look,

01:17and see if it's okay for our constituents,

01:19whether or not it's okay to move forward.

01:22So yeah, it's gonna be interesting to see

01:25if any state kind of moves it any more than it has.

01:28I'm hearing some things out of Arkansas,

01:30might be a state that kind of sneaks in with it this year.

01:33So I'll keep you updated on that.

01:35But yeah, New Hampshire is a no-go

01:37for online casino this year.
