DraftKings and FanDuel have launched their sportsbook platforms in Arkansas after partnering with two of the state’s casinos.
Oaklawn Casino in Hot Springs partnered with FanDuel, while Southland Casino in West Memphis partnered with DraftKings. Both operators were granted licenses to operate in the state by the Arkansas Racing Commission last month.
Speaking to KTLO.com, Oaklawn Vice President of Racing and Wagering, Zack Gillham, said that he was excited about the launch of FanDuel sportsbook. The sportsbook is called Oaklawn Sports FanDuel, and Gillham said it has replaced its old platform with a more effective system.
“Now, when we want to make changes, we don’t have to have as many people involved,” he said.
