In November 2018, Arkansas voters approved a constitutional amendment by a 54-46 margin, authorizing casinos to operate in four counties and to provide sports betting after the US Supreme Court ruled to abolish decades of prohibition in May 2018.
Spokeswoman Jennifer Hoyt said in a statement that Oaklawn Racing Casino Resort began offering sports wagering Monday morning and will allow gamblers to bet on games ranging from professional football and college basketball to cricket and rugby.
Hoyt says bets can be placed with tellers seven days a week from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. or at kiosks at the casino.
Oaklawn’s back-end supplier for sports wagering is SBTech.
