Today, sportsbook operator William Hill and Penn National Gaming announced an agreement that will see William Hill operate the race and sportsbook at the M Resort in Henderson Nevada.
The agreement is still pending approval from state regulators, but William Hill expects to take over sportsbook operations in May 2019.
This announcement indicates that William Hill will be taking over sportsbook operations at the M Resort from CG Technology.
Once William Hill assumes control of the sportsbook, the operator will have a presence in 115 sports betting venues in Nevada.
In a press statement, Joe Asher CEO of William Hill US said: “We are excited to expand our partnership with our friends at Penn National to operate the sports book at The M.
“It is a fabulous property, serving the Henderson and Southern Highlands areas, as well as guests from out of town, and we look forward to bringing our market-leading product to these customers.”
Ameet Patel, SVP of Regional Operations for Penn National Gaming said: “We are delighted to be teaming up with William Hill at M Resort.
“We have an active sports book at M Resort and we think our guests will benefit greatly from William Hill’s expertise.”
Penn National Gaming, the owner of the M Resort, has established a strong relationship with William Hill after entering multiple sports betting partnerships with the operator.
William Hill currently runs sportsbook operations at Penn National Gaming’s Hollywood Casino properties in Mississippi, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
This news comes a month after CG Technology entered the New Jersey sports betting market via a partnership with Meadowlands.
