Sports book operator Cantor Gaming of Las Vegas said today it reached agreement with California horse racing tracks to provide online poker wagering technology and infrastructure, should such betting be legalized in California.
It's unclear when, or if, intrastate poker will be legalized in California.
Cantor said its deal was reached with a group called Horse Racing United, which it says is a not-for-profit organization representing the interests of substantially all thoroughbred racing and breeding in California.
The agreement is subject to Horse Racing United being selected as potentially one of a limited number of licensees to operate intrastate Internet gambling websites, Cantor said.
