Would this mean that you couldn't bet California teams in Cali for integrity purposes? The NBA wants to control those rules also (not being discussed as it's little known about the Celtics games)
Plus if you bet online already why would you do it legally? It's just like people who have bought pot for years illegally, why would you go to a dispensery now? So you can be taxed on it?

I would expect that part of making it legal will involve a crackdown on offshore books
