Sports Betting Overview: Connecticut

Connecticut legalized sports betting in 2021 through a landmark agreement between the state, Mohegan Sun, and Foxwoods Resort Casino. Online betting launched in October 2021. The market is unique because licenses are controlled by the two tribal casinos and the Connecticut Lottery, creating a three-operator system. Despite the limited number of operators, CT bettors have access to major national brands through partnerships. Both professional and college sports wagering is permitted, with some restrictions on in-state college events. Connecticut's proximity to the massive New York market influences its competitive landscape.
