Can PR legally place sports bets or gamble online?

I searched through old posts and Google but couldn't find any concrete information on this topic. Basically trying to understand if any of the following activities could jeopardize a permanent residents status or their ability to naturalize.

1) Can a permanent resident take part in sports betting if they reside in a state where it is legal? Of course assuming that they pay taxes on any winnings, bet through an authorized sports book, etc. I couldn't find any sort of federal law pointing to the contrary.

2) Same question as above for other forms of online gambling, such as poker. It appears this may be more complicated, as it seems that online poker and other forms of online gambling are still illegal at the federal level.

Nearly one year later on Feb 2021 they sent me a notice that they'll reuse my biometrics from my green card application, but they won't refund the biometric fee! At the same time April 2021 showed up on my account as the expected completion date. Last week, the status was "17 days". Today the estimated time of completion has disappeared!!! Any idea what that means? More importantly - When I click on "View PDF" link under "N-400 Application for Naturalization", to see my actual N-400 form, I get " {"data":null,"error":{"developerMessage":null,"userMessage":null}} " message! The form is also missing under "Documents -> Your Uploads" tab! So, it appears that my N400 form is missing! What does that all mean, considering that it's impossible to file without N400 form! Finally, under profile, My name is incorrectly sp...
