Tennessee is one of the strictest states in the USA when it comes to all forms of gambling, not only live casinos online but also offline wagering. In a nutshell, commercially operated brick-and-mortar casinos are banned, and so are the virtual lobbies within the state.
Tennessee also prohibits all forms of social gambling, and puts lots of restrictions on charitable gambling. Horse racing and simulcast betting is allowed, but then again — there are no racetracks that operate in the state on yearly basis. The only form of betting that remains available to residents is the lottery which beats the records in terms of selling Instant Tickets. Which is no wonder, considering that gamblers from the state don’t have many other options to choose from.
Fun fact: The nearby states with looser gambling regulations get at least 10% of revenue on slots, games, and betting from Tennessee. The residents of the state are frequently spotted playing games of chance in the neighboring Mississippi.
