He sees it as a timing issue. Addabbo said he plans to keep pressing lawmakers on online casino gaming each year until the state acts.<\/p>\n<p>His comments came during a video interview on Gambling.com program \u201cThe Edge,\u201d where he also discussed prediction markets, sports betting taxes, and prop bets.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-logo-title-box box-100 text-left relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-box box-25 relative img-radius\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/site\/mirax-casino\/\" title=\"Visit Site\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><br \/>\n\t\t<amp-img alt=\"Mirax Casino\" src=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Mirax-Casino.png.webp\" width=\"50\" height=\"50\" layout=\"fixed\"><br \/>\n\t\t<\/amp-img><br \/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-logo-title box-25 relative py-10\">\n\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/site\/mirax-casino\/\" title=\"Mirax Casino\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Mirax Casino<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\">\n\t\t<strong>350% or 5BTC + <strong>150 Spins!<\/strong><\/strong><br \/>\n\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"pt-1\">New players only.

Addabbo said New York should create rules for the sector rather than try to ban it. In his view, regulation would let the state work with legal operators, collect benefits, and give residents a safer option.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cEvery year that goes by that we don\u2019t regulate prediction markets gives me more ammunition and more data and more justification to regulate it in New York,\u201d <\/em>Addabbo said.<\/p>\n<p>Addabbo also pushed back against a prop bet ban. Nearby states already allow those wagers, he noted, and he said a ban would give New Yorkers another reason to bet outside the state or cross state lines.<\/p>\n<p>For New York online casino supporters, the main issue remains political support. Addabbo can keep the iGaming bill alive, but approval will likely require clearer interest from Hochul and broader agreement inside the Legislature.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/casino-news\/new-york-online-casino-bill-unlikely-before-june-4-deadline\/\">New York Online Casino Bill Unlikely Before June 4 Deadline<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/\">iGaming.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New York online casino legalization appears set to wait another year, with Sen.
