This is very surprising. I have been following this and even as late as just a few weeks ago Christie vetoed a bill that would have allowed it.

If anyone can explain the legal basis for this I would love to know - because if NJ can do this - any state can do this and it should open the floodgates.

Isn&#x27;t this the NJ AttorneyGeneral just saying we arn&#x27;t going to arrest anyone from booking bets @casinos/racetracks and who&#x27;s going to stop us? This going on as a backdrop of several AtlanticCity casinos are closing this month. Who calls the bluff?

this is a bit like smoking dope in amsterdam, it was never officially "legal", the law "tolerated" it.

Spitfire15 · Answer

I wouldn&#x27;t compare the two, I&#x27;d much rather be smoking dope in Amsterdam than sports betting in AC.

Sled · Answer

not there yet fellas. NJ just repealed the state laws that had prohibited it. still have PASPA to deal with.

I think NJ is hoping feds will not enforce PASPA, but I would not count on that. look for NFL/NCAA to get an last minute injunction

rudy22 · Answer

PASPA blocks states from running their owning betting. It doesn&#x27;t block them from legalizing it. It will be like pot farms, they will license certain casinos.

[/Quote]He veto&#x27;ed it because gambling would be private and he is holding out that the state can over see it. The feds are going to let it go through so AC is the east vegas and then outlaw private gambling companies so AC, LV and Delaware are the only states to bet in.
