Eric Uribe

Born and raised in Nevada, Eric was exposed to the world of sports betting at an early age. He yearned to be 21 just to hit the sportsbook, and when that day finally came, he became a regular at the smoke-filled room, sweating out bets with sketchy characters. Eric's passion for sports betting hasn't wavered since. However, he's developed a separate interest in business too. Eric combines both these deep passions for OSB where he not only drops expert betting advice, but also researched news about the state of industry. Things like new legalization bills, tax changes, state revenue, innovation, and so much more!

Education

Bachelor's degree in Journalism from the University of Nevada. Master of Business Administration from the University of Central Florida.

Professional Achievements

Published over 300 sports articles in newspapers across the state of Nevada. Three-year business owner.

States that Recently Introduced Sports Betting Bills and Were Rejected

2021/06/16

Lots of things went wrong in 2020 and at the start of 2021. If one thing went right, though, it was the United States' push toward more widespread legal sports betting. The coronavirus pandemic incentivized local governments to green light sports betting at a faster pace, and the results speak for themselves. Ten new states have passed a bill to legalize sports wagering in the last year alone, with more expected to follow. Some states, however, remain holdouts.

Arizona's Bill to Legalize Sports Betting Passed

2021/06/15

Back in April, Arizona signed a bill that would officially legalize sports betting in various forms across the state. The move comes after initial resistance, and it still needs to go through the Bureau of Indian Affairs, but the official green light is considered a formality. Why did Arizona make this move now?

Wyoming's Bill to Legalize Sports Betting passed

2021/06/09

Wyoming is set to join the throng of states that have legalized sports betting in some form. The move, while not entirely unexpected, comes after an initial rejection. That leaves some skeptical it will get past the governor, who, in this scenario, ultimately has the final say. But we don't believe there's any cause for concern.
