Oklahoma governor unveils sports betting plans
Oklahoma governor Kevin Stitt has announced plans to legalise sports betting in the state. The move would allow Oklahomans to place in-person bets at gaming sites operated by federally recognised tribes and on mobile sportsbooks licensed by the state.
The governor’s plan will prohibit wagers on the individual performance of student-athletes, coaches, referees, player injuries and prop bets at the college level. The governor is awaiting input from the NCAA and athletic conferences.
