Florida
Mobile sports betting is live through the Seminole Tribe's Hard Rock Bet — but online casino and poker aren't legal in Florida.

He created Beat The Fish in 2005 to help fellow frustrated online poker players choose the right poker site for their strengths and then how to win consistently once they got there.

Texas
The biggest red state still bans online gambling — no legal online poker, casino, or sports betting, and the next legislative shot is 2027.
Michigan
A top-two US iGaming market — legal online poker, casino, and sports betting, and the anchor of multi-state shared poker liquidity.
Pennsylvania
A top-two US gaming market — legal online poker, casino, and sports betting, now with multi-state shared poker liquidity.
BetRivers
BetRivers is owned by Rush Street Interactive (NYSE: RSI) — same company as the physical Rivers Casinos. The welcome bonus has a rare 1x playthrough, and iRush Rewards points convert to real comps at the property cages. The trade-off is a smaller game library and a dated interface.
FanDuel Casino
FanDuel Casino is the online casino arm of Flutter Entertainment, the world’s largest gambling operator. Live in 5 US states with 1,500+ games, Evolution-powered live dealer, and a single wallet shared with FanDuel Sportsbook. For poker, FanDuel hosts PokerStars in MI, NJ, and PA — covered in our separate PokerStars on FanDuel review. The casino app is polished but thin on video poker, closes support at 8pm ET, and offers an invite-only VIP program.
Silver Oak Casino
Silver Oak is part of the Ace Revenue Group (formerly Virtual Casino Group), a network that has been on major gambling blacklists for over a decade. Withdrawals reliably stretch into weeks or months, the Costa Rican license provides zero dispute recourse, and the free-chip bonus structure is built to void player winnings after the fact.
Sloto’Cash Casino
Sloto'Cash has been online since 2007 and the operator does pay, but the bonus terms are engineered to void player winnings on technicalities and the $5,000 weekly withdrawal cap drags big wins out over months. Not a scam — just consistently hostile to the player in 2026.
Red Dog Casino
Red Dog is a Curaçao-licensed RTG casino we opened an account at to test. The games work, the interface is fine, the bonuses look generous — but the terms attached, the withdrawal process, and the lack of real recourse if anything goes wrong are enough for us to recommend against it.
PokerStars on FanDuel
PokerStars merged into FanDuel in March 2026 — same software, new wrapper, and Pennsylvania finally joined the Michigan + New Jersey shared pool. If you live in MI, NJ, or PA, this is the best legal poker software you can play.
