Hail Caesars: sportsbook expands presence to Washington state

February 11, 2022

With license granted, sportsbook immediately enters into partnership with three casinos.

Caesars Entertainment has received a sports wagering license from the Washington State Gambling Commission and, with that, it has expanded the breadth of its operations and established partnerships with two casinos there, Muckleshoot Casino and Spokane Tribe Casino. 

The partnership with Spokane Tribe includes a deal with its sister property, Chewelah Casino.  

In each casino there will be a full Caesars Sportsbook as well as self-service kiosks at which bets can be placed.  

Muckleshoot is the largest gaming destination in the region. Per the terms of the agreement, there will be four live-betting windows, nine self-service kiosks, and the ability to place mobile bets so long as the bettor is located on tribal property.  

This is in keeping with the rules of Washington state.  

Eric Hession, Co-President at Caesars Digital, commented on the expansion for the company, taking care to note that Caesars was now available to bettors in both the eastern and western parts of the Evergreen State: “Partnering the three tremendous casinos for our expansion into Washington state is a big moment for Caesars Sportsbook. 

“We’re thrilled to offer Washington sports bettors a chance to get into the action in time for Super Bowl LVI and we can’t wait to see how fans from Seattle-Tacoma to Spokane enjoy the thrill of betting on their favorite teams and events.” 

Super Bowl LVI, which is expected to be the single largest betting event of the year, is due to happen this coming Sunday.
