Golden Nugget partners DraftKings for Louisiana retail sportsbook
| By Robert Fletcher
Golden Nugget has linked up with DraftKings to open a new retail sportsbook at its Casino Lake Charles Hotel and Casino in Louisiana.
Players aged 21 and over in the state will be able to place bets on professional, collegiate, and other sports contests at the DraftKings Sportsbook inside the Golden Nugget Casino Lake Charles.
Due to open on November 10, the temporary facility will feature six ticket cages, while a network of 30 self-service kiosks will be placed throughout the casino.
Plans are also in place to construct a permanent, 10,000-square-foot DraftKings Sportsbook and lounge with odds boards, televisions and nearly 300 seats, with the aim of opening in summer 2022.
