The home of the Boston Tea Party and Paul Revere has historically yielded passionate, hardworking, freethinking individuals.

It’s a bit surprising Massachusetts has taken so long to come to the party on casino gambling.

However, it is happening – right now.

Read on for more information about current legal gambling options in the state, how the stage is set for expansion of casino gambling in Massachusetts, and for details on how online lottery and online gambling could also be making their way to the Bay State.

Social casino site options

Bay Staters can make use of all social casino sites available in most states. Slotomania, DoubleDown, BigFish, and Zynga are all available via Facebook or mobile device apps. They may also play on the Plainridge Casino site, which maintains a Play4fun network site due to the fact that the casino is owned by Penn National Gaming (which owns the Hollywood Casino chains). The advantage of playing on this site is that it allows Massachusetts residents to get a free preview of the offerings at Plainridge.

Background on expanded gambling in Massachusetts

Encore Boston Casino Free Online Slots Games

In 2011, Massachusetts passed the Expanded Gaming Act. The law allowed for three Las Vegas-style casinos and one slots parlor to be constructed in the state. Specifically, the law divided Massachusetts into three regions. It allowed for one casino per region. Four years later, the Plainridge Park Casino (the slots parlor) opened to great fanfare in Plainville, Massachusetts. As evidence of approval for gambling in the state, the casino reached its allowed building capacity within a few hours, and cashiers were temporarily running out of money.

MGM Springfield opened on August 24, 2018, to fanfare and festivities. The nearly $1 billion property is located in the south end of Springfield and could be an economic shot in the arm for the city and region. (This is Region B under the law and covers the western third of the state.)

Encore Boston Harbor, opened June 2019. Originally named Wynn Everett and then Wynn Boston Harbor, it is a $2.5 billion property located in the Boston suburb of Everett. Under the law, this casino will serve RegionA, which is the middle third of the state. (It includes Boston, the state’s capital and largest city).

What remains is RegionC, the eastern third of the state, which includes Cape Cod and Martha’s Vineyard. This is an important area because of the overall wealth. The lag on its development is largely due to ongoing court battles with the two federally recognized (and therefore eligible) Native American tribes in Massachusetts.

The Mashpee Wampanoag tribe wants to build a $1 billion facility in Taunton. Resistance from residents is delaying the construction. At this point, it is still up in the air whether the tribe can proceed. The other tribe, the Aquinnah Wampanoag, resides on Martha’s Vineyard. They may have a better shot at approval from the court system, but nothing has been decided so far.

For now, Massachusetts can look forward to the three current mega-resorts underway in the state. In general, things have not been so dire in Massachusetts because of the state’s relatively small land area and its proximity to casinos in other states.

Residents and visitors to the state have two options in Rhode Island for slot play. There is the Twin River Casino in Lincoln and Newport Grand Casino in Newport. Beyond that, Bay Staters can also visit Connecticut’sMohegan Sun in Uncasville or Foxwoods Casino in Mashantucket. All four of these casinos are fewer than two hours’ drive from most of Massachusetts.

Massachusetts Sports Betting

As of now, sports betting has yet to materialize in the Commonwealth. However, a new bill, which would authorize sports betting for various outlets, recently passed through the House and sent on to the Senate.

Massachusetts sports betting would be authorized for:

  • Three commercial casinos
  • A single slot parlor
  • Horse racing tracks
  • 5 online-only operators

In the Senate, though, the proposal stalled. But that does not mean hope is lost.

Massachusetts could still find a way to legalize wagering, as the legislature holds an informal session throughout the calendar year, during which time lawmakers will certainly discuss the industry’s legalization.

Online gambling options

Massachusetts does not have laws directly addressing online gaming one way or the other. As in many states, the legal framework simply hasn’t caught up to reality yet.

However, Massachusetts has shown itself to be relatively agreeable to the notion of online gambling, as it was one of the few states to legalize daily fantasy sports betting. It’s possible that expansion to other forms of online gambling and sports betting will occur in the near future.

President resigns months after casino opening

The president of the Encore Boston Harbor Casino, Robert DeSalvio, is stepping down less than four months after the casino’s opening.

Encore

The announcement of his resignation was made by Wynn Resorts, with the company already having a replacement for the position. Brian Gullbrants, a Wynn Resorts employee for the last eight years, will be taking over as president of the $2.5bn casino In Massachusetts. He was formerly overseeing the operations of the hotel’s beverage and food facilities.

No explanation for DeSalvio’s sudden departure

Wynn Resorts did not give a reason for the sudden resignation of DeSalvio. In a statement, it noted his “remarkable” ability in dealing with local and state officials as well as leaders of the local community, which was pivotal at a time when the casino was under development.

According to Wynn officials, it was his own choice to step down

Wynn Resorts CEO Matt Maddox said: “His unique talent to both manage a complicated construction process while listening to the needs of key stakeholders was essential to our success.”

DeSalvio did not issue a statement about his departure. According to Wynn officials, it was his own choice to step down after having led the Encore development project for five years.

Two further appointments

The Wynn Resorts announcement also spoke of a couple of further appointments.

Eric Krauss is set to be the new Senior Vice President of Communications and Public Affairs, with Jenny Holaday becoming the new Executive Vice President of Operations.

These two appointments will need to get approval from the Massachusetts Gaming Commission.

Recent disappointing results for the casino

The news that DeSalvio is resigning from his role of president of the Massachusetts casino came only one day after the release of the casino’s monthly revenue result for September.

The Encore Boston Harbor Casino registered its first decline in monthly gaming revenue since opening. Overall table game and slots revenues were also down for the month.

Encore Boston Harbor Casino registered its first decline in monthly gaming revenue since opening

Gaming revenue at the Encore casino was $49m in September, down from the $52.5m figure reached in August.

The main reason for this drop was the performance of the table games, which fell by $5.25m down to $27.1m. Slots revenue at the facility rose by $1.65m, up to $21.9m. This was in spite of the total slots handle for the month being almost one-quarter down in comparison to August figures.

It has been a busy week for Wynn Resorts. The Nevada Gaming Control Board issued a five-count complaint against the founder and former CEO of Wynn Resorts, Steve Wynn, in relation to sexual misconduct allegations.

Legal action involving the Mohegan Sun casino company and the Massachusetts Gaming Commission is also ongoing. The case relates to the awarding of a casino license to Wynn Resorts for the operation of the Encore Boston Harbor.
