Following the deployment of its PlaySports technology and trading advisory services at the Turf Club Sportsbook in Northern Quest Resort and Casino in Airway Heights, Washington in December 2021, this will be IGT’s second sports betting move in Washington State with the Kalispel Tribe of Indians.
And under the terms of this latest agreement, the retail sportsbook set to be opened by Kalispel Casino will be powered by IGT’s PlaySports technology and trading advisory services.
Kevin Zenishek, Executive Director of Casino Operations for Northern Quest Resort & Casino and Kalispel Casino, commented: "We're excited to roll out sports betting for our guests at Kalispel Casino. It has already proven to be a fantastic new amenity at Northern Quest and we know it will be popular at our Kalispel Casino as well."
"IGT is pleased to build on our sports betting momentum in Washington State and bolster our long-standing partnership with the Kalispel Tribe of Indians by powering sports betting at Kalispel Casino," said Joe Asher, IGT President of Sports Betting. "We look forward to bringing a great sports betting experience to the Kalispel Casino so that our long-time partner can further engage its customers."
At present, IGT PlaySports is available at more than 60 gaming venues across the US, as well as in more than 100 countries around the world.
