scavs - youbet in illinois ?? trouble

you can not get a tvg account to wager online because its illegal in illinois. tvg has a media outlet, a television station, and a legal department, yet they do not allow it.
i went through the preocess of signing up and then at the end of the preocess they say, sorry illinois doesn't allow it.
someone is right and someone is wrong.
i wish i could bet on the phone, it would make life easier.
