West Virginia represents a bright sport for online poker. Last month the WV House passed HB2934, sending the bill over to the Senate for approval. Over the weekend, the WV Senate passed HB2934. The final step before the bill becomes law is to obtain the signature of Governor Jim Justice.
Justice is fully expected to enact the legislation. “Governor Justice is the owner of The Greenbrier Resort, home to one of the five casinos that will have the option of taking gambling online under the legislation if it becomes law.”
With the potential for two states to legalize online poker this year and the launch of the soon-to-be largest online poker market in the country in Pennsylvania, 2019 stands ready to become the best year on record for online poker in the US.
