Of all the states in the US, California is high on the list of most active land-based casinos available to its residents, with more than 150 available throughout the Golden State. These are made up of around 90 full-scale casinos that are located on land owned by Native American tribes such as the San Manuel Band of Mission Indians, who run the San Manuel Indian Bingo & Casino, one of the largest in the country at more than 220,000 square feet and with 4000+ slot machines and 100 table games. The rest of the gaming properties available to California residents are card rooms; while some of these establishments refer to themselves as casinos they are purely card focused. Some range to a handful of tables, whilse others can boast Vegas-like poker rooms.
The state also boasts several racetracks where you can watch live thoroughbred racing as well as quarter racing. If you cannot get to one of the tracks in person, there are more than 30 off-track betting facilities situated around the state.
Bettors of California can thank Assemblyman Adam Gray for aiding their cause after he introduced the ACA 18 bill (subsequently passed) that should soon allow the residents of California to have access to sportsbook betting in some of its many Native American casinos. Although it is not yet active, the policy is in place to allow the state to easily pass the legislation in future.
Although there are plenty of brick-and-mortar operators that are active in the region, none are offering an online marketplace yet, and they don’t seem to be in a rush to do so. The same goes for online poker playing in the region.
While online gambling is not yet an option, you can play DFS online as well as partaking in legal horse racing betting in California via the normal licensed operators.
