All Atlantic City Casinos Applied for Online Gambling Licenses by Deadline
The Newark Star Ledger on Monday reported that all Atlantic City-based casinos have made the deadline to apply for an online gambling license. That deadline came and went on Monday.
"For applicants that meet this filing deadline, the division will be in a position to determine if they can commence Internet gaming operations by the go-live date," said Lisa Spengler, a spokeswoman for the Division of Gaming Enforcement.
Under the online gambling law Gov. Chris Christie signed in February, Internet wagering is supposed to be launched by late November. Regulators said they will move aggressively toward meeting that goal, but the state can extend that deadline.
On Monday, it was announced that the Trump Taj Mahal had entered into an arrangement with Ultimate Gaming, a Stations Casinos and UFC property, to offer real money Web gambling in the state.
