Legal sports betting launches around the country continue, as Virginia legal, online sports betting is now available for Virginia state sports fans. BetMGM Sportsbook debuted their mobile sports betting products Wednesday, January 27.

BetMGM previously announced a partnership with the Washington Nationals. Scheduled to launch later this season, BetMGM plans to open a retail BetMGM sportsbook connected to Nationals Park. It will be BetMGM's first in-stadium sportsbook.

A market leading sports betting and gaming entertainment company, BetMGM launched their sports betting app and website. Their betting app, available on iOS and Android, offers a user-friendly sports betting experience, making it very easy to create and customize pre-game and live in-play sports bets. Sports bettors can also participate in futures and parlay wagers.

Virginia marks the tenth state in which BetMGM's app is available, joining Michigan, which just launched last week. Others include Colorado, Indiana, Iowa, Nevada, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Tennessee and West Virginia online sportsbooks.
