IGT debuted its latest sports betting solutions, the PlaySports Bank and PlaySports Pod, at G2E in Las Vegas this week.
The products feature three intuitive, self-service betting kiosks and are topped with high-definition multi-media displays that can showcase a range of content including live sporting events, betting odds, lines, game day feeds and more.
The PlaySports Bank is designed to go against a wall, while the PlaySports Pod can be deployed in a standalone setting. Pictured at the show yesterday is Michael Brennan, VP of product lifecycle and market management.
Meanwhile, IGT’s CrystalBetting terminal has arrived at the Pearl River Resort in Philadelphia, Mississippi. The location, owned and run by the Choctaw band of Indians, includes the Golden Moon Casino and Silver Star Casino. Patrons will now be able to place pre-match and in-game sports wagers through CrystalBetting.
Each terminal includes a 27-inch monitor to watch live sporting events and place a range of sports wagers. The hardware features privacy wings, a personal listening audio jack, USB charging port, convenient work station and was recently named on the top 20 most innovative gaming technologies by a gaming magazine.
The Pearl River Resort made gaming history in 2018 when it was the first non-Nevada tribal casino to open a sports book before the PASPA repeal. It opened three sports books with over-the-counter retail sports betting and quickly expanded its offering to include self-service PlaySports kiosks and mobile on-premises wagering.
