Meskwaki Bingo Casino Hotel in Tama, IA, is now using International Game Technology’s PlaySports to power its sportsbook.
Casino guests are now able to place a variety of bets at the casino’s walk-up betting window or bet through the PlaySports QuickBet kiosks. Meskwaki Casino officials said they made the move to IGT technology to enhance the capabilities of their sportsbook and improve player experience.
IGT technology is also used in numerous slot machines in Iowa and across the US.
While online gambling is the most popular way for Iowans to bet on sports, most of the casinos in the state have sportsbooks open to players. Plus, you can watch the games live as you place a bet or two.
IGT serves operators in 25 US states. In addition to powering sportsbooks, IGT technology is used in many slot machines on casino floors. In April, IGT announced that its Wheel of Fortune and Megabucks slots awarded two jackpots worth over $4.5 million in March.
Furthermore, last month, a player won a $14 million IGT Megabucks jackpot at Atlantis Casino Resort Spa. It was the largest slot machine jackpot win ever in the city of Reno, NV.
