Mark Cuban backs Texas casinos but is less supportive of sports betting
Mark Cuban expressed less enthusiasm for sports betting than casino gambling in Texas, according to the report. Texas lawmakers passed casino and sports-betting bills in the House in 2023, but neither advanced in the Senate; supporters would have to wait until at least 2025 for another legislative effort.
The legislative impasse leaves operators and suppliers without a near-term path to expanded casino or sports-betting markets in Texas.
