What Site Takes Bets From Mississippi on the Preakness?

If you happen to live in the great state of Mississippi and wish to place a bet on the Preakness, you are welcome to do so at international websites the likes of Gambling911.com-endorsed Bookmaker, which has been in business since 1986 and pays 8 percent rebates on both WINS and LOSSES.

US-based websites like Xpressbet and TwinSpires, the first of which is likely to be advertising heavily during the lead up to the Preakness Stakes, do not accept players from Mississippi despite federal law permitting them to do so.

These sites opt to apply local law that does not allow racetracks – and effectively horse betting – in the Magnolia State.

The good news is that Bookmaker – unlike an Xpressbet or TwinSpires – does not require you to provide your social security number or to fill out a lengthy tax form.

Can't Bet on Twinspires.com From Mississippi

Despite it being among the very first states to legalize sports betting following the US Supreme Court decision to abolish decades of prohibition in 2018, Mississippi still doesn't allow mobile sports wagering....and that includes betting on the Kentucky Derby.  As such, TwinSpires.com is not available here.

TwinSpires is available from most US states.  Those states where the app is not available mostly do not feature any of the competition either.  BetOnline is available in states where TwinSpires is not for those 18 and up with two exceptions, New Jersey and Nevada.
