The sports wagering market is mature and approaching saturation (12 of 60 mobile licences live; FY25 handle above $5.9bn), with consolidation and product innovation expected rather than new launches. iGaming faces a structural constitutional barrier — expansion requires a voter referendum — and the 2026 effort (SB 761/SB 885) died when Senator Watson withdrew the referendum bill on 13 March 2026, the fourth consecutive failure. A sweepstakes ban (HB 295) passed the House but stalled in the Senate. Next realistic iGaming window: 2027 session or a November 2026 ballot push.
