Washington State tribe granted approval to offer sports betting
The Kalispel Tribe of Indians of Washington State received approval on Wednesday to allow sports wagering on tribal grounds, effective as of September 15.
According to the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the Fourth Amendment in the Tribal-State Compact between the Tribe, which runs the Northern Quest Casino, and Washington state was approved at the tribe’s gaming facilities.
The amendment applies to Class III Gaming, which according to the Washington State Gambling Commission includes lotteries, casino games, house-banked card games, machine gaming, and other forms of gambling. With sports wagering now available, bettors will be able to bet on professional sports, the Olympics as well as other international events, however, they can’t wager on in-state college teams.
The Tribe reached a tentative agreement with the gambling commission earlier this year to add sports betting. However, it had to go through the legal steps before bets could be placed. Northern Quest has been revamping its Turf Club to welcome sports gamblers, reports the KXLY.
