The installation is said to be part of Jackpot Digital's continued efforts to expand its footprint in the Land-based casino gaming industry.

Key points:

- The new installation builds on Northern Waters Casino Resort’s initial order of two Jackpot Blitz machines during June 2024

- The additional two machines will hope to further strengthen the property’s casino poker offering, having drawn favorable reviews from players following the June launch 

Northern Waters Casino Resort in Watersmeet, Michigan has placed a second order of two Jackpot Blitz electronic table games (ETGs) after originally debuting the provider's machines during June 2024. 

"We are thrilled to see this repeat order from Northern Waters, doubling their poker offering from two to four tables,” Jackpot Digital CEO Jake Kalpakian said. 

"This repeat order reflects the growing demand for our innovative poker ETGs, and we are eager to support Northern Waters in elevating its gaming floor with a digital poker room that can handle larger volume and provide players with an engaging poker experience."

After receiving favorable reviews from players regarding the initial launch in June, Northern Waters Casino Resort hopes the new machines will further strengthen the casino’s poker offering. 

Good to know: Jackpot Digital announced that it will be installing two dealerless poker machines at Boomtown Casino & Hotel New Orleans after signing a Letter of Intent with the Penn Entertainment property on December 11

"We are excited to expand our offering with two more Jackpot Blitz machines," Northern Waters Casino Resort GM John McGeshick said. 

"The players love the game, and it has proven to be a popular choice. So we are looking forward to growing our success with these additional units."

The installation of these machines is also said to be part of Jackpot Digital's continued efforts to expand its footprint in the Land-based casino gaming industry with a focus on enhancing customer experience.

The ETGs combine the typical elements of poker with Jackpot Digital’s dealer-less technology in order to create an immersive experience for players.
