Kansas to announce sports betting launch18 August 2022(PRESS RELEASE) -- BetKansas.com recently confirmed that the Kansas Lottery along with the Kansas Racing and Gaming Commission will finally announce the official launch date of Kansas sports setting on 18 August, setting the stage for Kansas to join the more than 30 states that have sports betting in place across the country. “Expect an official announcement tomorrow (8/18/22) in the early afternoon about sports betting in Kansas, including an official start date and what platforms/providers that will be available,” said the source, who confirmed Thursday’s announcement on the condition of anonymity. Sportsbooks in Kansas will likely have the chance to begin accepting wagers as soon as the 8 September date that lawmakers set out when SB 84 (which legalized sports betting in Kansas) was hammered out this spring, though no official start time has been made public yet. Chris Boan, reporter for BetKansas.com, broke the news recently via Twitter. Boan, our Sports Betting Analyst and Reporter for BetKansas.com is available for commentary. Quote from Christopher Boan, the lead analyst for BetKansas.com: "Using Arizona's launch as a model, the Grand Canyon State went through the same process last summer to green light their sports betting legislature to get up and running for NFL season. Based on the 147 days between the bill being signed and the actual launch of wagering in Arizona, we would tentatively expect an October 9th, 2022 launch in Kansas. "
