Sports Betting in Slovenia
Sports gambing is quite popular among Slovenians, just as it is all across Europe. Though the sports gambling industry had a slow start, it is quickly growing, and betting shops are providing punters across the country with many ways to place wagers on sport events.

The most popular form of sports betting in the country is through the Sportna Loterija sports lottery. This is the second largest lottery system in Slovenia, and is the only one to offer a sports-based lottery system. The system allows punters to place lottery-style bets on most major sporting events, and tickets can be purchased at hundreds of retailers across the country.

Online Sports Betting in Slovenia
Online sports betting in Slovenia is also increasing in popularity. Sportna Loterija offers the only official Slovenian sportsbook today. The site lets punters place wagers on a variety of sporting events, though it focuses very heavily on European football matches, which seem to be the most popular games to bet on in Slovenia.

Other options for internet sports betting in Slovenia involve major international internet sportsbooks. Many of these sites accept players from Slovenia, and a few of the biggest ones even offer Slovenian translations of their page, letting punters navigate the website and bet on sports in their own language. The Slovenian government has not yet gotten involved in online sportsbooks or other forms of internet gambling, but it seems likely that this will happen in the future as the industry continues to grow and become more profitable.
