Nebraskans will finally have the opportunity to legally bet on sports for the first time starting Thursday at WarHorse Casino in Lincoln.
Customers will be able to place sports wagers at any of 10 kiosks in the facility or the sports book window. WarHorse has partnered with Kambi for both kiosks and line-setting services. Kambi is the global leading independent provider of sports betting technology and services.
“Nebraskans have been asking for the opportunity to wager on sports since the ballot initiatives were passed in 2020,” says Lance Morgan, CEO of Ho-Chunk, Inc., parent company of WarHorse Gaming, LLC. “We’re thrilled to be the first casino in the state to offer sports betting.”
State regulations require sports wagers to be placed onsite, but bettors will be able to build out their wagers through the WarHorse app to rapidly place the wager at the onsite kiosks or sportsbook window. Currently, state regulations do not allow for online wagering or bets on in-state college home games.
“Bettors will be able to place wagers on a wide variety of sports and events, much more than just the major sports,” said Morgan.
