LONDON, Feb. 27, 2025 -- International Game Technology PLC ("IGT") (NYSE: IGT) announced today that IGT PlaySports™ is growing its sports betting presence in Nevada via a three-property, sports betting technology and services agreement with GN NV Holdings, LLC, owner and operator of the Golden Nugget Casinos. Per the agreement and through a phased rollout, IGT PlaySports will power retail and mobile sports betting at Golden Nugget Casino Lake Tahoe first, followed by Golden Nugget Casino Las Vegas, and Golden Nugget Casino Laughlin.
Golden Nugget Casino Lake Tahoe was the first of the three casinos to convert to an IGT PlaySports-powered sportsbook after launching its retail sportsbooks in January 2025. Golden Nugget Casino Laughlin and Golden Nugget Casino Las Vegas are expected to launch their new sports betting programs later this year, first with retail betting and then with a mobile betting option.
"Golden Nugget Casinos in Nevada are thrilled to partner with IGT PlaySports to elevate our retail and mobile sports betting experience statewide," said Gerry Del Prete, Chief Operating Officer-Gaming of Fertitta Entertainment. "Nevada sports bettors are savvy and experienced players. As we reintroduce Golden Nugget's betting program, our priority is to deliver a seamless and enhanced experience with user-friendly technology that offers outstanding features, including advanced betting options and real-time updates to keep players engaged."
"Given the scale and maturity of Nevada's sports betting market, adding three Golden Nugget Casinos to IGT PlaySports' customer roster is an achievement that speaks to the quality of our technology and team," said Joe Bertolone, IGT SVP Sports Betting. "We look forward to helping Golden Nugget Casinos elevate their sports betting program, execute their vision and engage sports fans in Nevada with localized offers, a diverse betting menu and superior technology."
In addition to deploying the award-winning IGT PlaySports platform, the three Golden Nugget Casinos will offer IGT PlaySports' QuickBet self-service betting kiosks and leverage the expertise of the Company's Trading Advisory Services team.
IGT PlaySports was named "Sportsbook Platform Provider of the Year" at the 2024 EGR North America Awards. For more information, visit IGT.com, or follow IGT PlaySports on LinkedIn.
