The Bottom Line<\/h2>\n

It is clear to see that WV sports betting has come a long way since it was first introduced in 2018. Starting out with retail sports options and then progressing through to the online versions, the state has welcomed sports betting with open arms. Then again, when regulators had a bill for it ready prior to the overturning of the PASPA law, it can only be expected. Further to this, while West Virginia currently only has five online sportsbooks on hand, it is thought that more will add their names to the list in due course. The Golden Nugget brand has secured a deal with Greenbrier for an online skin, though further details on this have yet to be announced. Others that could be introduced to the state include Caesars, BetRivers and PointsBet.<\/p>\n
