Red Rock Resorts Started the Field Trials of the GAN Sports Betting Platform

GAN recently announced the launch of its GAN Sports. Also, it belongs to the STN Sports brand. In addition, it partnered with Red Rock Resorts to carry the platform. Thus, Red Rock Resorts started the field trials at Station Casinos. 

This project is a first step for GAN as they want to get into the local Las Vegas market, and it all started with getting their GameStack 2.0 Platform certified. With the help of GAN, the STN Sports App is working to provide users with a better and more tailored betting experience.

According to per head bookie experts, the most extensive betting menu in Nevada is available in this mobile app. Its other features include increased parlay payouts, the ability to bet on multiple games at once, and the ability to use a single wallet for racing and sports. At the beginning of 2024, further features are expected to be released.

Station Casinos intends to launch new kiosk technologies for financing and making bets once the field testing is finished. Bettors will soon be able to use the app to make wagers and activate them at the kiosks thanks to a new "Bring-Your-Own-Device" option.

Phil Ivey Busts on Day 1 of WPT Big One for One Drop

Legendary poker player Phil Ivey had a sluggish start and a tough first day at the $1,000,000 buy-in World Poker Tour (WPT) Big One for One Drop, eventually busting out before the session ended.
