    Maine Expected to Legalize Sports Betting

    But the tribal casinos will have sole control of online and app betting...



    The Maine Senate approved bill LD 585 to legalize retail and mobile sports betting with a 23-11 vote Tuesday evening, and Governor Janet Mills is expected to sign off on the bill.

    Under the bill, The Wabanaki Nations, consisting of the Passamaquoddy, Penobscot, Micmac, and Houlton Band of Maliseet, will control the mobile sports betting market. In-person betting will be allowed at Maine’s two casinos in Oxford and Bangor.

    Geeezus, just how many states are beholden to the Tribes?

    I know FL and CA get bogged down, and in Conn they embraced it.

    But man, Maine?

    I did not know that. If I did, I forgot about it.

    At least it looks like they will embrace it in Maine.

    Yeah, but will conglomerates move in?

    Are they takinga piece, or trying to run it.

    I admit, I don't know much about Maine right now.

    Is DK arleady there for fantasy?

    Many moons ago, I was banned from the State of Maine.

    Going on vacation with the family up there this summer.

    Will report back if I stayed under the radar.

    Mostly the cheapest New England state. Gets cheaper the more in the boondocks you go.

    Tribes are great for the industry.
    They (IMO) go out of their way to make sure the players get a fair game, and they will let you 'gamble'

    Yes. My point is 6/5 should be criminal. Yet tables are usually full. Customers are either too stupid to notice or just don't care.
