Where things stand
Oklahoma’s offshore market sits at $537M in estimated revenue by CEB. The state has the OKC Thunder, the University of Oklahoma Sooners, and the Oklahoma State Cowboys that drive sustained sports interest and betting demand. That demand currently flows entirely to offshore operators.
Coleman’s re-vote push faces an uphill path. If HB 1047 does not clear before late May, the next opening is the 2027 legislative session.
