US – Sportsbook at Isleta Resort & Casino now open
By Phil - 14 August 2019
Isleta Resort & Casino in Albuquerque, New Mexico, has opened its sports book allowing customers to place bets on local teams, Pro Baseball, Pro Football Regular Season Win Totals, English Premiere League, UFC, WNBA, PGA Golf, NASCAR and more.
The Resort has partnered with USBookmaking to bring the latest and greatest sports betting technology to New Mexico. “We are confident that our dedicated and exceptional Sports Book team will provide the very best betting experience in New Mexico,” said Isleta Resort & Casino CEO Harold Baugus. “I believe we’re the only sports book in the state that lets you bet on New Mexico and New Mexico State. At other sports books, you haven’t been able to do that. We wanted to have the full complement of all types of sports betting. Albuquerque is a big market, and we wanted to provide all the games to all our guests. We’re very excited to be answering the requests of our guests to bring sports gambling to New Mexico.”
Vic Salerno, President of USBookmaking, said: “We are proud to be selected by Isleta Resort & Casino to provide sports betting services for their casino. We offer outstanding service for our clients and our selection by Isleta validates the tremendous value that USBookmaking contributes.”
The temporary sportsbook location has opened on the casino floor whilst a permanent location is being built. It will open later this year, along with the Resort’s new food court. The permanent location will also feature a bar.
Santa Ana Star Casino is the only other venue in Albuquerque to offer sports betting. It has also opted for a solution provided by USbookmaking but so far doesn’t offer betting on New Mexico teams.
