Bovada does not allow betting from the state of Maryland. Alternatives includes BetAdrian, perhaps the largest of the online sportsbooks focusing on the North American market. Jazz Sports offers a generous welcome bonus (max bonus $2000) and presently for a limited time only a $1000 RISK FREE BET.
Voters have decided the fate of in-state licensed sports betting sites, and sports betting has won, just not yet. In the meantime, residents have many options in which to choose from outside the state.
Three Maryland casinos met the qualification requirements for sports wagering licenses, the Maryland Lottery and Gaming Control Commission announced in early October 2021. It's a slow process for sure.
The applications for Horseshoe Casino in Baltimore, Live! Casino & Hotel in Hanover and MGM National Harbor in Oxon Hill will next go for final signoff by the Sports Wagering Application Review Commission, which is responsible for awarding the licenses.
In-state operators were expected to launch their apps some time after the conclusion of the NCAA Men's College Basketball Tournament, just in time for the dreadful Baltimore Orioles to begin their 2022 season. They had the third shortest odds to win the World Series.
Sites like Jazz Sports are based outside the state and allow wagering to those 18 and up.
