The Massachusetts Gaming Commission is exploring the possibility of allowing sports betting kiosks in retail locations such as bars and restaurants. This expansion could offer patrons a convenient way to place bets while enjoying food and drinks.
However, a recent study conducted by the Spectrum Gaming Group suggests the economic benefits of such a move might be limited, according to a WBSM report. The report highlights potential challenges in regulating and enforcing responsible gambling practices in these settings.
As the commission deliberates on this proposal, it will weigh the potential benefits against the potential risks and costs.
