What kind of gambling are you referring to?
Texas has horse tracks and a lottery, but there are no Casinos in Texas.
Only eight states do not sell lottery tickets:
Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Hawaii, Mississippi, Nevada, Utah, and Wyoming.
Commercial casinos:
Commercial casinos are casinos founded and run by private companies on non-Indian land. There are 16 states (and 1 US Territory) that currently allow commercial casinos in some form:
California
Colorado
Florida
Illinois
Indiana
Iowa
Louisiana
Michigan
Mississippi
Missouri
Nevada
New Jersey
Pennsylvania
Puerto Rico
South Dakota
Washington
West Virginia
There are approximately 450 commercial casinos, producing a gross gaming revenue of $28.93 billion in 2004.
Indian gaming:
As an expression of their retained sovereignty, some Native American tribes opt to operate casinos on tribal land to provide employment and revenue for their government and their tribe members. Tribal gaming is regulated on the tribal, state, and federal level. Native tribes are required to use gambling revenue to provide for governmental operations, economic development, and the welfare of their members. Federal regulation of Indian gaming was established under the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act of 1988. Under the provisions of that law, games are divided into three distinct categories. Class I games are "traditional" games that involve little or no wagering. Class II games include bingo, pull-tabs, and certain non-banked card games (poker, cribbage, bridge, whist, etc.). Class III games include all casino games and games that do not properly fall into classes I or II.
Tribal gambling had revenues of $14.5 billion in 2002, from 354 casinos. Approximately forty percent of the 562 federally recognized tribes operate gaming establishments.
The National Indian Gaming Commission oversees Indian gaming for the federal government.

Nevada is the only state where gambling is legal. However i would say at least 20 states have many casinos that are located on Indian Reservations.
