You can bet the NFL online from San Jose, California thanks to the US Supreme Court decision this past May to abolish previous prohibition against sports betting.
The state of California may not offer sports betting in any of its casinos for some time due to amendments that have to be added to current law. More of an obstacle is the complicated relationship between the state and its Tribes that operate the casinos. It's been a decade long effort now to legalize online poker and still nothing on that front. Do not dispair, a host of top notch internationally licensed online gambling sites offer sports betting on just about everything and are available to California residents.
San Jose a Hot Bed for Sports Bettors
With its significant Asian population, primarily Vietnamese, San Jose ranks among the largest wagering communities in the world. San Jose has the largest Vietnamese population in the United States, coming in at 106,992. The great news is that BetPhoenix caters to Vietnamese bettors, this year claiming the biggest Vietnamese player base in the world.
San Jose has its own professional sports franchise, the Sharks National Hockey League team. This means that the betting season for locals here doesn't end after the NFL.
The Rams have also gotten good in the NFL so we anticipate even more wagers on this team.
Oh wait, did we forget those 49ers, who ended the season on fire in 2017? The Raiders will still have plenty of fans here despite their upcoming departure to Vegas.
