The Short Answer
Wyoming does not have legal, regulated online poker. Wyoming has one tribal casino (Wind River Casino), a state lottery, pari-mutuel racing, and legal mobile sports betting since 2021. Wyoming is notable for being one of the first states to license cryptocurrency-friendly fintech companies.
Wyoming players who want to play online poker access offshore operators. The PokerSites.org review team's top picks for Wyoming players in May 2026 are BetOnline Poker and Bovada Poker.

Wyoming Online Poker Legal Status
Current Law
Wyoming Statutes Title 6, Chapter 7 covers gambling offenses. Sports betting was authorized under HB 133 (2021) with a unique regulatory framework administered by the Wyoming Gaming Commission. The Wind River Casino (operated by the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone tribes) is the only casino. No statute addresses online poker.
Legislative Outlook
Wyoming is a very small market (~580,000 population) but has shown surprising willingness to embrace new technologies (sports betting, cryptocurrency regulation). The state's small population limits the commercial case for igaming. No iPoker bills have been introduced.
Banking for Wyoming Players
