It became a reality one & a half year after Maine Governor Janet Mills signed the sports betting law, aligning the state with over three dozen other states of the country that offer legal sports betting following the crucial 2018 Supreme Court ruling. The Gambling Control Unit carefully reviewed the proposed rules, after receiving feedback from more than six hundred comments made during the process. The regulator's official website also featured a list of events open for betting.
The Maine Department of Public Safety Gambling Control Unit recently released the new sports wagering rules, allowing betting enthusiasts to place bets starting Friday, at 9 a.m. Legal sports betting in the Pine Tree State is all set to start this weekend, thanks to the approval of new regulations by the government. Maine’s adoption of sports betting, with regulations taking effect on 3rd of November has signaled a transformative shift in the state’s gambling industry, attracting prominent companies like Caesars and DraftKings to bring extra excitement to sports enthusiasts and bettors.
