Pennsylvania lawmakers have proposed a bill that would impose major restrictions on online sports betting and casino gaming, including effectively banning same-game parlays and prohibiting sign-up bonuses.
House Bill 2879, introduced by Democratic Representative Tarik Khan and Republican Representative Jamie Flick, was referred to the House Gaming Oversight Committee on October 21. No committee vote has yet been scheduled.
The bill would ban microbets on individual plays, as well as proposition parlays combining multiple outcomes from the same game. It would also limit customers to two deposits per day, ban the use of credit cards to fund accounts and require an affordability check before an operator accepts more than $5,000 in deposits over 180 days.
