Two more Maryland businesses have qualified for consideration for a sports wagering license, according to the Maryland Lottery and Gaming Control Commission, which oversees casinos and sports wagering in the state.
The businesses, one of which has plans to open a betting facility inside the bar Sports and Social in North Bethesda, must get additional approval before opening to bettors.
It’s not yet clear when the businesses may begin accepting wagers, commission spokesman Seth Elkin said in a phone interview Monday. Timelines will depend on how prepared each business is to complete the operational and technical requirements that remain, he said.
