The Nevada Gaming Commission Thursday approved Station Casinos to operate the sportsbook at Treasure Island on the Strip and at two Mesquite casinos.
Station issued a statement immediately afterward about their partnership with Treasure Island and their plans to open the STN Sportsbook at the Golden Circle at 8 a.m. Tuesday, April 29.
Station Casinos will also open sportsbooks in Mesquite at the Casablanca Resort & Casino and Virgin River Hotel & Casino, but no date has been given. This brings the number to 19 that Station Casinos will operate.
“Through this partnership with Treasure Island, we will be able to bring the energy, innovation, and hospitality of STN Sports to the property’s guests,” said Jason McCormick, vice president of Race and Sports Operations.
The 3,089-square-foot book features 74 high-definition screens, ranging from 55″ to 85″ displays, plus video walls providing immersive viewing of every sporting event. There will be an eight-kiosk layout, mobile sign-up stations for STN Sports accounts, and free parking.
“This collaboration underscores our commitment to providing exceptional hospitality and entertainment, now integrated with Station Casinos’ innovative approach to sports betting. The STN Sportsbook at Treasure Island will offer an unparalleled betting experience with cutting-edge technology and deluxe amenities,” said Najam Khan, executive vice president and general manager of Treasure Island.
The sportsbook experience will be seamlessly integrated with Treasure Island’s Golden Circle, situated within a bar and restaurant and features an authentic sports museum, Khan said. This atmosphere allows guests to enjoy food and beverage offerings as they become immersed in sports memorabilia all while watching live sporting events.
The new STN Sportsbook at Treasure Island will bring new offerings to sports bettors on the Strip, McCormick said. Bettors will enjoy increased betting options, higher betting limits, an expanded prop betting menu, and a comprehensive selection of betting leagues. Special events will be hosted throughout the year, creating opportunities for sports fans to engage with other bettors, including the “Last Man Standing” competitions with $300,000 in prize money, featuring contests for Pro Football, Pro College, and March Hoops.
At Treasure Island, sportsbook employees will become Station Casinos employees, while in Mesquite the employees will remain under the auspices of the property owned by Mesquite Gaming.
There will be in-gaming wagering, but only on the mobile app. That function for over the counter and at kiosks will be rolled out at a later date for its new GAN system under field trial.
