Then fantasy sports is the right play for you. Contrary to traditional sports betting, where the focus is on picking outcomes for specific teams or an entire game, fantasy betting zeroes in on the individuals.

The Louisiana Gaming Control Board adopted the final regulations and licensing application needed for the online cash prize competitions to start later this year, as early as April or May.

Maj. Chuck McNeal, with the Louisiana State Police’s Gaming Enforcement Division, told the board that fantasy sports contest operators can start submitting the applications Feb. 19. He said the suitability investigations conducted by the State Police usually take 60 days to 90 days to complete before an entity can appear before the Louisiana Gaming Control Board for a gambling license.

Under that timeline, fantasy sports betting operations could be up and running by the spring, if the gambling board approves their licenses.

Voters in nearly three-quarters of Louisiana’s 64 parishes agreed in the November 2018 election to legalize fantasy sports betting. Lawmakers have since set the tax rates and the regulatory process. All that remains are the licensing decisions for individual operators from the Gaming Control Board.
