Five Maryland casinos are significantly closer to offering in-person gambling on sports after getting the green light from a state commission on Thursday.

The Sports Wagering Application Review Commission gave its blessing to Horseshoe Casino in Baltimore, Live! Casino & Hotel in Hanover, Hollywood Casino in Perryville, MGM National Harbor in Oxon Hill and Ocean Downs Casino in Berlin.

It’s not immediately clear when the casinos will be able to start taking bets on games and player performance. Several procedural steps remain before the Maryland Lottery & Gaming Control Commission can formally issue the licenses.
