What to look for in a Connecticut app
For a Connecticut bettor, the practical differences are speed of line movement, market depth, and how cleanly the app shows live prices. A good prop app updates lines in real time and shows the full menu - points, rebounds, passing yards, total bases - not just the headline markets.
Keep Connecticut's tax treatment in mind when you compare promos. Winnings are exempt from Connecticut state income tax. A welcome offer is only worth what it nets you after the state's tax rules.
