All bets in Oregon are through DraftKings, the sole sports betting operator in the state.

DRAFTKINGS REPLACED THE OREGON LOTTERY’S SCOREBOARD ONLINE SPORTSBOOK IN JANUARY 2022

The operator replaced the Oregon Lottery’s Scoreboard online sportsbook in January 2022, with the latter phasing out in 2022. DraftKings is now the only sportsbook where players can place legal bets.

The migration from SBtech-powered Scoreboard was unanimously approved by the Oregon Lottery Commission in August 2021. This was made possible by DraftKings’ acquisition of SBTech, agreed in December 2019.

The Oregon Lottery has been operating its Scoreboard platform since October 2019 when the state opened its legal market.
