Casino Moves to 24/7 Operations

It's now possible to gamble at Maryland Live! at any hour of the day.

The Maryland Live! casino will now be open every second of every day. The casino at Arundel Mills officially began 24/7 gambling operations on Thursday, after receiving approval from voters and the Maryland Lottery. Maryland Live! opened at 8 a.m. and has no plans to close its doors. The move to 24/7 gambling comes as the casino is also preparing for the addition of about 150 live table games in January. It plans to hire 1,200 workers, including 800 dealers. Do you plan to take advantage of the casino being open 24 hours a day?

Casino Revenues Decline Between August and September

All casinos in the state pulled in less money than they did in August, including Maryland Live!, which added hundreds of new machines.

Maryland's casino revenue fell as summer turned into fall, even as the state's largest gambling facility added new slot machines in September.   The Maryland Lottery reported $42.9 million in casino revenue statewide, down from $44.6 million in August. At the Maryland Live! casino near Arundel Mills, revenues dropped slightly from $32.4 million in August, to $32.0 million in September. The drop comes even after the facility boosted the number of video gaming terminals from 3,710 to 4,750 on Sept. 12.  But lottery officials said the figures at Maryland Live! should not be cause for alarm. "They already have a lot of capacity," Maryland Lottery Director Stephen Martino said. "Adding more [machines] was not necessarily going to add a lot of …

The Cordish casino is grossing $1 million a day. Not bad. If other casinos open, particularly National Harbor, that should put a big dent in their revenue. That's why Cordish and Penn National are pouring millions of dollars into ads against Question 7. The don't want big new casinos in Baltimore City and National Harbor eroding their revenue. It's pure self-interest on their part because they …   more ›

August Revenue Decreases at Maryland Live!, Other State Casinos

The Maryland Lottery said the state's three casinos brought in $44.6 million in August, down from $48 million in July.

Maryland Live! brought in $32.4 million of the total $44.6 million generated at the state's three casinos in August, according to numbers released Wednesday by the Maryland Lottery. However, last month's revenue at the Anne Arundel County casino was down along with total revenue: In July, the three casinos in Maryland brought in a total of $48 million with $35 million from the Maryland Live! facility at Arundel Mills in Hanover that opened in June. Patch previously reported that casino revenue was expected to rise, as Maryland Live! added more than 500 new gaming terminals at the end of July. The casino also recently opened a concert venue at Rams Head Center Stage, with more restaurants set to open soon. Here are highlights from the …

Revenue From Maryland Live! Rises, Perryville Casino Lags

The Maryland Lottery said the state's three casinos brought in $48 million in July, with about $33 million going to the state. Maryland Live! saw revenue rise by 25 percent in its second month.

Action at the Maryland Live! casino drove record gambling revenues to the state in July, but revenue lagged at one of the other facilities in the state, the Maryland Lottery reported Monday. The three casinos in Maryland brought in $48 million in revenue in July, paced by $35 million from the new Maryland Live! facility at Arundel Mills. The overall casino revenue in the state increased by about $8 million. But revenue dropped at the Hollywood Casino in Perryille, which has seen its income drop by nearly one-third in the last 12 months. In July, Maryland Live! saw revenue grow 25 percent, up from from $28 million in June. (The casino opened on June 6.) Casinos kept about $15.8 million of the revenue in July, with the rest distributed to …

Deliberations on Expanded Gambling Continue

It still remains unclear whether there will be a special legislative session on the issue.

It's been a little more than a month since the Maryland Live! casino opened at Arundel Mills, but lawmakers are still talking about the gambling issue. The big question is whether the state will allow for a new casino in Prince George's County (near National Harbor) while also permitting live table games at existing casinos. Gov. Martin O'Malley this week met with Senate President Thomas V. Mike Miller Jr. (D-Chesapeake Beach) and House Speaker Michael E. Busch (D-Annapolis) about the possibility of a special session, the Washington Post reported. Officials from the Cordish Co., which owns Maryland Live!, have opposed expanded gambling for now, arguing that they would like to see their own facility get established first. "We think table …

The National Harbor location is the only MD casino that EVER made sense. It is the only venue that has a real chance of atttracting out of state money which is what we need. The place will be a big hit especially since VA will never ever approve casino gambling. Cordish's boondoggle simply takes money from locals who, if they weren't wasting money on his machines, would simply be spending it …   more ›

Arundel Mills Casino Still on Track

Officials from Maryland Live! said they have received the first 1,000 slot machines and the complex is scheduled to open in early June.

  The operators of the new casino and entertainment complex at Arundel Mills accepted delivery of their first 1,000 slot machines this week, and said they remain on target to open the facility by early June. Officials from the $500 million Maryland Live! project said construction has moved quickly and credited good working relationships with state and county officials. “A project like this does not get done at the speed it has without the unbelievably close cooperation and coordination between the public and private side,” said Joe Weinberg, a partner with The Cordish Companies, the main developer of Maryland Live! Officials spoke Wednesday during a gathering to recognize the first anniversary of the start of construction and to honor the …
