Te plan called for retail betting to be taxed at 15 per cent and online 20 per cent along with a $100,000 annual
licensing fee. However this failed to win support from the tribes. Another second bill also failed to pass the state’s third reading deadline. Oklahoma’s Indian Gaming
Association says the plan puts them in direct competition with commercial operators while taking away their exclusive right to offer regulated sports betting in the state.

Oklahoma has two racinos and 139 tribal casinos. Te racinos are located at Remington Park in Ok- lahoma City and Cherokee Casino Will Rogers Downs in Claremore and both are regulated by the Oklahoma Horse Racing Commission. Te racinos were first authorised in 2004, the
same year the state-tribal gaming act was set up for tribal gaming. In 2023 total commercial casino gaming saw a GGR of $151.4m. In comparison the tribal casinos can also offer table gaming and during 2023 generated around $3.34bn in GGR. Tere are 38 recognised tribes in the state of
which 35 have gaming compacts. Te state has more tribal casinos than any other US state. Remington Park is operated by a commercial
subsidiary of the Chickasaw Nation of Oklahoma and sees the vast majority of the gaming revenue with $129.2m in 2023. It has a maximum of 750 slots.
Cherokee Casino Will Rogers Downs is owned
by the Cherokee Nation and saw $22.2m in rev- enues and operates a maximum of 250 slots. Meanwhile the casinos face competition from
potential legislation in Texas which is looking at authorising commercial casinos. Sports betting, as yet, is not permitted in the
state. A proposal was put forward in 2023 by Governor Kevin Stitt to allow retail sports betting at the tribal casinos and gaming establishments in the state only whilst allowing for online sports betting via the Oklahoma Lottery Commission. Te plan called for retail betting to be taxed at
15 per cent and online 20 per cent along with a $100,000 annual licensing fee. However this failed to win support from the
tribes. Another second bill also failed to pass the state’s third reading deadline. Oklahoma’s Indian Gaming Association says the plan puts them in direct competition with commercial operators while taking away their exclusive right to offer regulated sports betting in the state.

Oregon has no commercial casinos but does have 10 tribal casinos operated by eight tribes operating around 7,000 slots and 120 table games. Two of the locations are Class II casinos. Sports betting is also permitted via the Oregon
Lottery and its contracted partner. A limited form of sports betting was launched in 1989. Tis gave the state a partial exemption from the 1992 federal law prohibiting sports wagering. Sports betting ended in 2007 but the lottery reinstated the offering in 2019 and extended it to include singe event wagering on all professional sports. Te lottery closed its own sportsbook in January
2022, after a contract was signed with DraftKings to market and operate sports wagering on its be- half.
Te sector is regulated by the Oregon Lottery Commission (OLC) and there is no specific state law covering sports betting rather it falls under the broader definition of lottery games. Total sports betting revenue in Oregon in 2023
amounted to $64.3m which was up 53 per cent on the previous year. Tere was no retail sports betting operations set up by the lottery so this is entirely down to DraftKings online sports betting platform. Tere is no tax per se and the lottery instead
