Best Connecticut Sports Betting Sites & Apps 2025
The legislation included provisions for the issuance of three sports betting licenses; two for the state’s recognized tribes and one for the Connecticut Lottery.
As a result of the legislation, the Mashantucket Pequot tribe and the Mohegan tribe have partnered with DraftKings and FanDuel respectively and have launched both retail sportsbooks and mobile sports betting apps. Following an extensive application process, the Connecticut Lottery chose Rush Street Interactive as its sports betting partner and has since launched its PlaySugarHouse app in the state.
The Connecticut sports betting industry is regulated by the Department of Consumer Protection (DCP) Gaming Division. The department is responsible for all industry oversight including the issuance of licenses.

Daily Fantasy Sports in Connecticut
Online Daily fantasy sports sites (DFS) were included in the state’s gaming expansion bills that legalized sports betting. While the industry was previously unregulated, it was still possible to play DFS contest prior to the recent legalization.
The legislation allowed sports betting license holders to partner with DFS operators. Both tribes have partnered with sports betting providers who are also DFS operators in DraftKings and FanDuel. The Connecticut Lottery’s partner Rush Street Interactive has also intimated that it will have a DFS presence in the state.
For now, this means that exactly as with sports betting, the current DFS operators in Connecticut are:
- DraftKings
- FanDuel
- PlaySugarHouse
The legal age for DFS contests in set at 18 years or older.
What about online poker & live poker in Connecticut?
Online casino gaming was included in Connecticut’s recent gaming expansion bills allowing the state’s tribes to launch iGaming products at the same time as the sports betting launch.
In theory, this means that online poker is legal. However, neither of the online casinos in operation currently have an online poker room or have indicated any desire to open one. Although, it is technically possible for online poker to launch immediately, it’s more likely that the tribes will focus their energies into sports betting and online casino table games for the foreseeable future.
There’s a very good chance that online poker will arrive in the state at some point, but it could be some way off for now.
