Caesars Entertainment has entered the Oregon retail sports betting market in partnership with the Coquille Indian Tribe in Coos Bay.
The operator’s first in-person sports wagers in Oregon were accepted on Monday at the Ko-Kwel Casino Resort in Coos Bay, formerly known as The Mill Casino, and coincided with the resort’s 30th anniversary.
As part of the partnership, Caesars has rolled out a number of self-service wagering kiosks at the venue, giving bettors access to a wide range of markets, including player props, live in-play options and futures markets.
“Bringing our sports wagering offering to a new jurisdiction for the first time is always significant,” said Caesars Digital president Eric Hession. “We remain committed to supporting Indian gaming and enhancing the guest experience through partnerships like this.”
Margaret Simpson, CEO of the Coquille Economic Development Corporation, commented: “This partnership aligns perfectly with our commitment to advancing gaming opportunities and enhancing guest satisfaction.”
