The bill, which now goes to the Senate, would allow for 22 locations where people could place bets in person. Sports betting would be allowed online, at Maryland’s six casinos and the stadiums where the state’s three major professional sports teams play, as well as horse racing tracks, under a measure approved Thursday by the House of Delegates. Maryland voters first voted to approve sports betting via referendum last November. In one of the final phases toward beginning sports wagering the Maryland House approved measures within House Bill 940 to allow for sports wagering in the state both at select onsite locations and online.
