Nevada sports bettors will soon lose access to the Golden Nugget Casino’s betting app as it shuts down. The announcement was made by the casino’s parent company, Landry’s Inc., citing a change in technology providers as the reason for the shutdown.

The Golden Nugget Casino’s betting app was launched in 2018 and quickly became popular among sports bettors in Nevada. The app allowed users to place bets on a wide range of sports, including football, basketball, baseball, hockey, and more. It also offered live in-game betting, which allowed users to place bets on games as they were happening.

The app was powered by Miomni Gaming, a technology provider that also worked with other casinos in Nevada, including the Westgate Las Vegas and Boyd Gaming. However, in March 2019, Miomni Gaming’s license was suspended by the Nevada Gaming Control Board due to a dispute with its partner, Entergaming.

As a result of the suspension, several casinos in Nevada were forced to shut down their betting apps, including the Westgate Las Vegas and Boyd Gaming. The Golden Nugget Casino’s app was able to continue operating thanks to a temporary agreement with another technology provider, but that agreement has now come to an end.

The shutdown of the Golden Nugget Casino’s betting app is expected to take place on May 31st. Landry’s Inc. has not announced whether it plans to launch a new betting app in the future or if it will partner with another technology provider.

For sports bettors in Nevada, the shutdown of the Golden Nugget Casino’s betting app means they will have one less option for placing bets. However, there are still several other betting apps available in the state, including those offered by William Hill, MGM Resorts, and Caesars Entertainment.

Overall, the shutdown of the Golden Nugget Casino’s betting app is a reminder of the challenges that can arise in the rapidly evolving world of sports betting technology. As more states legalize sports betting, it will be important for casinos and technology providers to work together to ensure that bettors have access to reliable and user-friendly betting apps.
