Resorts Casino Hotel announced a second online sports-betting partnership Thursday, a day after receiving approval from gambling regulators to launch a soft version of the state’s first online and mobile sports-betting platform.
Resorts and the Stars Group announced an extension of their existing partnership to include online and mobile sports wagering through the BetStars brand alongside the already existing online poker and casino offering available through the PokerStarsNJ brand. Matt Primeaux, senior vice president of strategy and operations at the Stars Group, said the company was “uniquely qualified with the experience and insight needed to make sports betting a success in New Jersey.”
