Maryland got its ninth mobile sports wagering sportsbook operator Thursday as the Maryland Lottery & Gaming Control Commission issued a license to SBOpco LLC, perhaps better known to its customers as SuperBook.
The SuperBook Maryland Sportsbook now becomes the ninth mobile operator in the state. Seven online sportsbooks started operations in November 2022 and an eighth, Betfred, joined in February.
