Because that operator would need to be partnered with one of the state’s commercial or tribal casinos, four frontrunners appear obvious: DraftKings, FanDuel, Bet365, and BetRivers. These operators would then be able to subcontract mobile betting contracts known as “skins” to other providers; according to State Senator , that number could be “eight or 20 skins, but we agreed on no less than four.” Around 50 percent of profits will be shared with the state, and consumer protections similar to those for sports betting at casinos will be in place.Governor Cuomo has that the legalization of sports betting on phones could generate as much as $500 million in annual revenue for the state — a number that includes around $200 million in New York cash currently estimated to be flowing across the Hudson to New Jersey’s legal market.The measure is one of several new efforts to increase revenue for the state in the aftermath of the which cut the amount pulled in from sales taxes while Albany adopted new programs to aid New Yorkers who lost jobs during the pandemic.

Matt Stieb

New York is an American biweekly magazine concerned with life, culture, politics, and style generally, and with a particular emphasis on New York City. Founded by Milton Glaser and Clay Felker in 1968 as a competitor to The New Yorker, it was brasher and less polite, and established itself as a cradle of New Journalism. Over time, it became more national in scope, publishing many noteworthy articles on American culture by writers such as Tom Wolfe, Jimmy Breslin, Nora Ephron, John Heilemann, Frank Rich, and Rebecca Traister.
