Online sports betting conglomerate, BetMGM, which is a joint venture between MGM Casinos and GVC Holdings, recently announced its foray into West Virginia, bringing its range of iGaming services to the locals. From the best of online sports betting, to Blackjack, roulette, slots, and more, BetMGM plans to introduce over 30 games to patrons, more than twice what its competitors currently offer.
BetMGM also offers a range of progressive jackpot-linked games, a crowd-favorite in West Virginia, while gamers can log on to the platform from their smartphones. West Virginia residents can now legally access iGames under a dedicated tab from their Android or iOS devices, in addition to legal sports wagers. The platform is also accessible from the desktop.
West Virginia is a strategic market for BetMGM since the demand for online casinos is surging in the state. And the operator wants a big chunk of the pie. The developers are relying heavily on the popular jackpot slot, MGM Grand Millions, to woo players. The game features iconic Las Vegas structures as Wild and Scatter symbols, while offering exciting free spin modules and branded table games, at par with some of the creator’s other popular titles.
BetMGM Casino partnered with The Greenbrier mountain luxury resort chain. A premium global hospitality network based in West Virginia. MGM’s online casino and sports wagering services are also available in New Jersey. While Pennsylvania and Michigan are next on their list, pending Government approval.
MGM Resorts International is a global entertainment conglomerate offering best-in-class services including state-of-the-art conference spaces, incredible living areas, and an extensive list of nightclubs, restaurants, and other retail offerings to guests from around the world.
The business operates 29 properties in the United States and Macau, including a few notable establishments like MGM Grand Aria, Bellagio, and Park MGM to name a few. BetMGM is the company’s newest venture in the growing iGaming space.
A market-leading initiative between MGM Casinos and GVC Holdings, one of the world’s leading sports betting and iGaming organizations, BetMGM was established in July 2018 to offer iGamers world-class sports betting and online casino experience. The platform was developed following the United States Supreme Court’s ruling against the decade-old U.S. Federal Professional and Amateur Sports Protection Act (PASPA), which suddenly opened a new opportunity for responsible iGaming in the country.
The Greenbrier Hotel Corp., a part of the Justice Family Group, LLC, is a luxury resort located in Greenbrier County, West Virginia. Operational since 1778, the resort hosted over 26 American presidents through the centuries. Current facilities on offer include the Casino Club apart from an array of outdoor sports like tennis and golf.
Spread over 11,000 acres, The Greenbrier’s range of exclusive services and amenities include a 103,000 square-foot entertainment and gaming venue, designer boutiques, fine dining, golf championships, and a world-renowned mineral spa.
