The M Resort in Henderson is now offering a new option for sports bettors. A hand-held device has been created to allow gamblers to place sports bets away from the bookmakers. Players can now place bets from anywhere in the casino whether it be at the blackjack table or the roulette tables. The new technology is part of a new system from Cantor Gaming. Bettors are now able to place a bet on specific sporting events from anywhere in the casino. This frees up players time to participate in other games such as blackjack, craps, poker or many of the other casino games.
Another great feature of the hand-held is the ability to place bets while the sporting event is in process. This is a first time this has been available for players. The device is no bigger than a cell phone and can be used by those who have an existing account at the casino.
“All of a sudden, these same people who were betting once or twice a game at the beginning of a sporting event can place wagers every minute if they want,” says Anthony A. Marnell III, chief executive of the M Resort. “Having this technology changes the entire equation for everyone involved.”
