Maine passed legal in online gambling.

Statement from Governor Mills.

 I considered this bill carefully, and while I have concerns about the impacts of gambling on public health, I believe that this new form of gambling should be regulated, and I am confident that Maine's Gambling Control Unit will develop responsible rules and standards to hold providers of this new form of gambling accountable while ensuring that Maine's tribes benefit from its operations," Mills said in a statement. "It has always been my strong desire to work with tribal leaders to improve the lives and livelihoods of the Wabanaki Nations, and it is my hope that this new revenue will do just that."

 What do you think?

Good or bad for there?

It would be good for this area. And legal online gaming was needed. It will be interesting how the gaming board sets the parameters of what is allowed.

Sports gaming boards across southern Maine exists in an in person situation. This will take from that pool and those business will have losses. The nations will get needed resources to make their nations solvent and able to establish credit lines to off set costs.

The wrinkle will be in limits of action, able to deposit only a certain amount of income during a day or month . Whether online texas hold em is offered and what platform will be allowed for an example of regulation.

I feel this could be beneficial to Maine citizens but the devil will be in the details.
