BetUS vs. In-State Utah Apps

BetUS offers some great options that are comparible, if not better, to those of the state-regulated apps.  "Regulated" should be placed in quotes as there have been countless documented issues with these apps in recent months - everything from crashing to account compromises - that have not been adequately addressed.

Utah does not offer any form of regulated gambling, even at the state lottery level.
