A bill sponsored by the Connecticut House General Law Committee could seek to place a maximum amount on wagers for online sports betting.
SB01464 was referred to the Senate’s Joint Committee on General Law on Thursday. While the primary goal of the bill is to empower Connecticut to join the Multi-State Internet Gaming Agreement (MSIGA) for online poker, farther down is a clause that reads: “The maximum sports wagers established for online sports wagering in regulations adopted pursuant to section 12-865, as amended by this act.”
In the “Statement of Purpose” at the bottom of the bill, the last two points read:
(C) disclose the maximum sports wagers established for
online sports wagering; and (3) require the Commissioner of Consumer Protection to adopt regulations establishing maximum sports wagers
for online sports wagering.
