As this year’s Little League World Series in Williamsport, PA is winding down, PlayPennsylvania has found illegal, offshore sportsbooks are taking bets on the semifinal games that are scheduled for Thursday night.
Legal PA online sportsbooks are not permitted to offer any markets on the LLWS.
But offshore sportsbooks neither licensed nor regulated in Pennsylvania are, in fact, illegally providing lines for the remaining games in a sporting event involving 12- and 13-year-old baseball players.
The Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board told PlayPennsylvania on Thursday morning that it has referred the matter to state law enforcement. Under the Pennsylvania Gaming Expansion Law, regulated sportsbooks are not permitted to offer lines involving LLWS games.
