3. When people think of Connecticut gambling, it’s likely they think of the massive casinos in the state that are among the world’s largest. Despite these great gambling options, there is still no legal sports betting in Connecticut, though lawmakers and the state’s tribes are working hard to make this happen.

The alliance, ahead of expected legalisation of sports betting in the state, will see DraftKings will become the official daily fantasy sports partner of Foxwoods Resort Casino.

Through thethis agreement, DraftKings will expand its footprint in New England and the Connecticut, New Jersey and New York Tri-State area.

Sports betting will be legal in Connecticut next year, a top lawmaker said Monday as Foxwoods Resort Casino and Draft Kings, a digital sports entertainment business, announced a partnership pitched.

Matt Kalish, co-founder and president of DraftKings North America, said: “This is a landmark deal in collaboration with the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation as well as a critical next step to bringing America’s top-rated sportsbook app to sports fans in Connecticut.

“The national expansion of regulated sports betting is among our top strategic priorities. DraftKings today is live with mobile sports betting in 10 states, more than any other operator in the US, and teaming up with the tribe will allow us to extend our reach even further.”

Rodney Butler, chairman of the Mashantucket Pequot Tribe, which owns and operates Foxwoods, said: “Partnering with DraftKings, the most prominent name in sports betting, reinforces the Mashantucket Pequot Tribe’s position as a leader in the gaming and entertainment industry.

“We’ve proven our ability to shape the future of gaming time and time again, and now we’re ready to drive sports wagering and online gaming for the state of Connecticut. Working through the tribal gaming compacts, we will help bolster our economy with much-needed revenue and virtual entertainment.'
