DraftKings, the fantasy sports giant, manages Hollywood Casino’s online sports-betting operation. It operates online sports betting in five states that consider fantasy sports to be games of skill, not chance. Games can be played in demo mode, with play-money chips or using real money.

Slots are the biggest online category. Video poker, other table games and novelty games are available. New games are added as the PA Gaming Control Board approves them.

Anyone who is at least 21 years of age, has a valid United States Social Security Number and is physically within the state of Pennsylvania can bet with DraftKings Sportsbook in PA

Online sports betting came to PA after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that a federal ban on sports betting in most states violated their rights.
