IGT teams up with Colville casinos to launch central Washington sports betting
An official launch date has not been disclosed at this time.
International Game Technology (IGT) has signed an agreement with Central Washington’s 12 Tribes Colville Casinos that will provide its casinos with sports betting. There is no official launch date or time frame available for when players will have access to sports betting in the casino.
In March 2020, Governor Jay Inslee signed a bill into law that legalized sports betting on all of Washington state’s 29 federally recognized Native American tribes.
12 Tribes Colville Casinos is run by Colville Gaming. The casino chain also operates the 12 Tribes Lake Chelan Casino in Manson, the 12 Tribes Omak Casino Hotel in Omak, and the 12 Tribes Coulee Dam Casino in Coulee Dam.
12 Tribes Colville Casinos COO Tony Posey said in an official statement: “Thanks to IGT we feel confident in our ability to provide our guests with an exciting and secure sports betting environment, and we look forward to opening our doors to sports enthusiasts soon.”
