As the second most populous state, Texas could be worth $1.3 billion at stabilization, BofA analyst Shaun Kelley said in a note.
Penn National Gaming (NASDAQ:PENN), which Kelley rates Buy, is singled out as a good pick for the Texas market with their ownership of multiple racetracks in the state.

Sports Betting in New York: Governor Andrew Cuomo has favored a limited market with help from state lottery companies. A competitive market could provide up to 14 skins and opportunities for several sports betting companies to get a piece of the large pie in the state.
The analyst estimates the New York market to have a total addressable size of $900 million under a multi-operator scenario.
DraftKings Inc (NASDAQ:DKNG) has a strong market share in neighboring New Jersey and MGM Resorts International (NYSE:MGM) made an acquisition of a New York casino in 2019, which could benefit the companies in the state.
Sports Betting in Canada: The repeal of the national single-sports betting band and efforts to privatize Ontario’s state-run system are reasons for optimism and opportunity in neighboring Canada.
“We estimate Ontario has about a $750 million opportunity for sports betting and another $1.1 billion if iGaming is included,” Kelley said.
The analyst notes that Ontario’s size would make it equivalent to the fifth most populous state in the United States.
