Licencias aprobadas por IGB para 109 ubicaciones de videojuegos y más.
La Junta de Juegos de Illinois (IGB) ha aprobado varias medidas, incluida la concesión al Hard Rock Casino de Rockford de una licencia de operador de apuestas deportivas y la autorización para tener una casa de apuestas deportivas, así como la concesión de la aprobación de Seminole Hard Rock Digital como proveedor de servicios de gestión de apuestas deportivas.

La IGB también ha aprobado a Hard Rock para obtener una licencia de apuestas deportivas en Illinois durante cuatro años para minoristas y en línea, junto con el casino Hard Rock Rockford.

El casino debe cumplir con las reglas de la IGB antes de poder ofrecer apuestas deportivas en persona o en línea.

En la reunión de la Junta, la IGB otorgó más de 233 nuevas licencias de juego y aprobaciones relacionadas para diferentes mercados verticales.

En cuanto a los videojuegos, la IGB aprobó licencias para 109 establecimientos de videojuegos, dos licencias ocupacionales de casino de nivel uno, así como 44 licencias ocupacionales de casino de nivel dos, 44 licencias ocupacionales de casino de nivel dos, 27 licencias ocupacionales de apuestas deportivas de nivel 2 y una licencia de proveedor de casinos.

Durante el mes de octubre de 2022, los apostantes del estado invirtieron más de mil millones de dólares en actividades deportivas. En enero, PointsBet lanzó su cuarta casa de apuestas deportivas minorista con el hipódromo de Hawthorne, en Illinois.

El administrador de la IGB, Marcus D. Fruchter, comentó: "La junta directiva y el personal continúan con su importante labor para implementar la histórica ley de expansión del juego y regular la sólida y cambiante industria del juego en todo el estado de Illinois de una manera ética, transparente, compatible y eficiente.
