MetroBets with Caesars Sportsbook features 25 LED televisions, an odds board, three teller windows, and a dozen kiosks. Caesars also has plans to open brick-and-mortar satellite betting locations throughout the territory, as allowed by Puerto Rico law.

“As we pursued sports betting in Puerto Rico under its unique framework, we wanted to align with the best possible partner that would provide a deep, localized knowledge of the market,” Caesars Digital President Eric Hession said.
