Atlantic City’s sports betting is cool, but where do Philadelphia-area casinos stand?

While New Jersey and Delaware are rolling along with sports betting, the question often comes up of where things stand with Pennsylvania.

The short answer is that the Keystone State remains in a holding pattern. Nothing will happen until at least Oct. 3 when the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board holds its next meeting.

Did we mention that Jersey took in more than $95 million in sports action? And this was before the NFL regular season started.

The PGCB has received two applications for sports betting, according to spokesman Doug Harbach on Thursday. One was from the people who own Penn National racetrack in Dauphin County.
