Hard Rock Bet Launches 'Games', a Legal Motor Racing Betting Product in Florida
Hard Rock Bet, a Florida-based gaming operator, has launched a new interactive betting product called 'Games'. This product is authorized by the 2021 Compact with the State of Florida, despite online casino games being illegal in the state.
The 'Games' allow players to predict the finishing order of drivers in three past races. Wins are determined by the players' selections and the drivers' probabilities. This product appears to be similar to historical horse racing (HHR) machines, which are legal in several states. In fact, the 'Games' closely resemble slot-like HHR machines, but with a motor racing theme.
Unlike other states like California, which is yet to fully legalize online casino games despite a 2025 law addressing sweepstakes casinos, Florida maintains its stance against iGaming. Therefore, interested players must visit physical casinos in Florida to access these 'Games'.
Hard Rock Bet's 'Games' offer a unique betting experience based on past motor races. However, due to Florida's laws, players must visit physical casinos to participate. The product's legality is ensured by the 2021 Compact with the State of Florida, but it remains a grey area in the broader context of online casino gambling in the state.
