In the United States you must follow your state laws for each individual state, when no state law is present for an activity, you then go by the federal law.

The federal law states that persons must be at least 18+ to gamble; some states have taken it into there own hands to make the minimum age 21+ while others have banned it completely.

WA is the only state that has written a law pertaining to online gambling; it is illegal to gamble online in the state of WA. In all other states you can gamble online at age 18+ as all other state laws are written for land based casinos only.
