Sports betting heading for South Dakota

(PRESS RELEASE) -- BetMGM, a leading sports betting and iGaming operator, today announced an exclusive partnership with Liv Hospitality's Tin Lizzie Gaming Resort and Cadillac Jack's Gaming Resort, offering future retail and mobile sports betting in Deadwood.

The Deadwood Sports Betting Legalization Amendment was approved by voters on 3 November 2020, authorizing the South Dakota State Legislature to legalize sports betting within the city.

"Liv Hospitality's prime resort locations in Deadwood make it an ideal partner for us. Together, we look forward to bringing the BetMGM sports betting experience to South Dakota sports fans," said Adam Greenblatt, BetMGM Chief Executive Officer.

Pending regulatory approval, the BetMGM mobile app will be accessible within both Tin Lizzie Gaming Resort and Cadillac Jack's Gaming Resort beginning next month. The mobile app will complement a retail BetMGM Sportsbook that will include kiosks and counter wagering.

Caleb Arceneaux, Chief Executive Officer of Liv Hospitality, said, "BetMGM is an outstanding organization that brings credibility to our new sports betting offerings. Visitors now have another reason to come to Deadwood, while enjoying the many other entertainment opportunities at our resorts."
