Rush Street Gaming launched sports betting in Pennsylvania

The SugarHouse Casino in Philadelphia and Rivers Casino in Pittsburgh officially launched, following ten-hour testing periods on December 13 and 14.

With the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board satisfied that the two-day test went without a hitch, each venue was approved to officially open their Kambi-powered sportsbooks on Saturday, December 15.

Both casinos are owned by Rush Street Gaming and received their sports betting license approvals from the PGCB at the end of October. Their wagering technology, which is provided by the Rush Street Interactive/Kambi partnership, received its PGCB approval at the end of November.

SugarHouse hosts an 1,800 square foot facility, while Rivers, which is operated by Rush Street and owned by joint venture partners Walton Street Capital and High Pitt Gaming, has opened a 3,000 square foot lounge. They become the second and third venues approved to launch sports betting in the state following Penn National Gaming’s Hollywood Casino, which launched its William Hill-powered offering in November.
