The five casinos in the state with sportsbooks paid out more than $28 million to bettors, leaving operators with a $4,375,316 profit, the agency said.
Following the deduction of promotional plays and other amounts, the state receives a 15% tax on those winnings. In January, the taxable win was $4,293,989, giving the state $644,098 toward the Blueprint for Maryland’s Future Fund for early childhood education.
Live Casino! and MGM National Harbor were the only casinos to see more than $10 million wagered.
