Delaware likely to OK sports betting
When Delaware Gov.-elect Jack Markell and a new General Assembly take office next month, the legalization of sports betting is expected to be high on their "to-do" list. State lottery director Wayne Lemons said that with legislative approval, sports betting could be in business by the summer.

It looks like they are going to do it like in canada meaning Parlays and Props. I wonder what the problem is with betting on a single sporting event? There has to be a reason.
Atlantic City is in trouble. Those casinos are bleeding money right now. Wouldnt it be something to see Donald Trump and company on Capitol Hill asking for a bailout of Atlantic City?

The reason is it effectively increases their takeout, because let's say for example a 3 team parlay that should pay 8-1 in Vegas I guarantee will pay 7-1 or 6.5-1, yet most people aren't smart enough to realize that. This is what they do in Ontario. Their net take is closer to 15% rather than the 4.5% in Nevada this way...

All I know is that one of the 3,832 times I have been stuck in traffic in DE driving to and fro DC and points north, I wouldn't have minded stopping in Christiana a few times to throw some duchats at a 3-game parlay.
