Colorado sports betting is legal and live as of 2020.
Sportsbooks apps offer live odds on many sports, including spreads, moneylines, and sometimes even proposition bets on events that take place during a game. What’s available for live betting depends a lot on the sportsbook you use, and which game or sport you are look at. Even though “on average” bookmakers have a 4.55% advantage on straight bets (2.38% @ -105), the key word is “average”; advantage players find bets where the bookmaker’s advantage is negative. Whether your goal is to be a sports betting pro, or just earn a little money on the side, the first step to winning is to stop making –EV bets.

Apps are available throughout the state for betting on sports in Colorado. That means you can bet directly from your smartphone or tablet as long as you are physically located within Colorado. You do not need to be a state resident to bet on CO sportsbook apps.
The CO sports betting apps live today include:
These apps are next in line to launch in Colorado:
Your device will use geolocation technology to verify that you are within Colorado before allowing you to wager on any of these sportsbook apps.
Here’s a closer look at some of the biggest players in the market:
The current market leader in the US sports betting market, FanDuel is a popular choice with bettors in many states with legal online betting. That includes Colorado, where FanDuel is one of the top operators.
FanDuel leveraged its popular brand for daily fantasy sports and its acquisition by international gambling giant Flutter into a dominant position in the US.
New bettors at FanDuel get up to a $1,000 risk-free bet with a first deposit.
Generally the No. 2 operator throughout the US, DraftKings is another company that leveraged success in daily fantasy sports into a solid position in US sports betting.
New bettors at DraftKings get $25 free with no deposit, and up to a $1,000 deposit bonus with an initial deposit.
The betting option from MGM Resorts International, BetMGM has started getting serious about gaining marketshare in the US, including in states like Colorado where it doesn’t have a physical casino.
With a long-established presence in Las Vegas, a well-known brand and with a partnership with a longtime partner in European online gambling, MGM believes it has the recipe for success in the US.
New bettors at BetMGM get a 100% deposit match up to $500.
An upstart company from Australia, PointsBet has aggressively tried to establish its brand in the US. It’s even put its US headquarters in Colorado and partnered with Colorado teams, showing how important the state is to its overall plans.
New bettors get up to $250 in free bets on a first deposit.
A European bookmaker with a huge presence in Nevada for years, William Hill is attempting to make in-roads across the US. After being taken over by Caesars Entertainment, that dream could become more of a reality.
New bettors get up to a $500 free bet with a first deposit.
Another brand under the Flutter umbrella alongside FanDuel, Fox Bet tries to leverage the brand recognition of the eponymous Fox Sports, which has a major presence in American sports media. So far, that hasn’t translated into major marketshare, but it’s among the second tier of operators behind DraftKings and FanDuel.
