The Story of Legal Gambling in Ontario, and What Will be Next for Europe?

Is this time, will the Toronto Maple Leafs actually win the Stanley Cup? Do you think North Carolina will win the March Madness championship against Kansas? Do you have your hopes on Canadian Corey Conners taking home the green jacket at Augusta?

Congratulations are in order for residents of Ontario, who may now legitimately put their money where their speech is.

The first wager in Ontario’s embryonic sports betting sector was made in a matter of days.  Only at 12:01 a.m. on 28 March 2022 did the Ontario single-game online gambling market reopen after being closed since last summer. Only 50 seconds after its opening, PointsBet in Ontario stated its “first large bet” in the region was a $500 two-leg tandem of North Carolina against Kansas in the men’s basketball championship of NCAA and the Toronto Maple Leafs against the Tampa Bay Lightning on Monday night, both of which took place in Canada.

You need to know everything as Ontario is now the first jurisdiction to expand its legalized sports betting market.

Was Sports Betting Already Allowed in Canada and Ontario?

Since the passage of Bill C-218 in June of last year, only parlays (bets on several outcomes that must all come true to win) and horse racing have been permitted in Canada.

Canada’s government prohibition on sports betting was overturned by Bill C-218, which enabled futures (such as a Stanley Cup bet made at the start of this season) and single-game wagering to be legalized.

With the launching of numerous sportsbooks recently, Ontario became the first jurisdiction to implement a legalized sports betting system. This year, sports betting is predicted to produce gross revenues of $800 million in Ontario, a province with 14.57 million people, hardly a risk for the regional government.

Thirty states in the United States have now legalized sports betting after a similar measure was enacted in 2018.

Why Are Some People Not Seeing Much of a Difference as a Result of This?

With an offshore internet sportsbook, you’re likely currently betting on the secondary markets. If you bet with a sportsbook in person, your betting may not be impacted at all by this.

There seems to be little difficulty in the first scenario. The Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario may ask for proof of your age (you have to be 19 to wager) if your existing sportsbook has a deal with them. Don’t be fooled into thinking that bet credits are actual money, since they aren’t. Many conditions must be met before a credit account may be used to withdraw cash.

What Impact Will This Have on the Way You Watch Sports?

Other than seeing sportsbook advertising after every blow, betting can add some excitement to a late-season NHL game — and who knows, you could even win some money. This is the point at which the book always wins, and you’re going to lose. This is just a heads-up.

Prop bets, something you might recognize from the Super Bowl, are one method to wager during a game. Props may range from the duration of the national anthem (which is usually only available during the NFL championship) to particular statistics about the players themselves. With each extra dollar of income, professional sports organizations are progressively warming to the concept of allowing spectators to place these sorts of bets in the stadium.

What Are the Drawbacks?

Addiction to gambling is one such example. There are online resources provided by the government to address this issue, including a self-assessment questionnaire. As a result, all sportsbooks must offer self-control that allows you to set deposit limitations and a predetermined loss.

The athletes also have a negative to consider. For betting on his playoff players, Falcons wideout Calvin Ridley was recently banned for the whole season by the NFL, even though he apparently placed many prop bets for Atlanta to win. Because of this, some believe that single-game wagering was forbidden initially and that individuals like Pete Rose are greatly respected because of their reputations for manipulating games.

So, Where Should You Begin?

Just to be clear, whenever you see -110 beside a bet, you must bet $110 in order to win $100. In the other case, a wager of $100 would result in a profit of $220 if the odds were +220.

In a Moneyline wager, you wager on the outcome of a game, with odds tilted in favor of the underdog. By using the points difference, the odds are equalized. For instance, Kansas has a 4.5-point advantage against UNC in tonight’s championship game. With the margin, the Jayhawks must beat by a minimum of five points in order to cover your wager. UNC bets win in case Tar Heels lose by less than five points or win by more than five points.

The Bottom Line

It is possible for Canadians and Ontarians now to play on top-notch iGaming platforms in a safe, fully-regulated environment. Enjoy betting!
