It has been revealed that the sports betting giant FanDuel is set to offer retail sports betting in Washington state. This is the first time that the operator will offer its retail platform in the state, and this is done in partnership with the Suquamish Tribe.

The sportsbook operator revealed its plans in a press release last week, and it provided details of the facilities that it will be offering at the Suquamish Clearwater Casino Resort, which is a short ferry ride and drive from Seattle. It is planning to go live with the retail sportsbook facilities in the very near future, and there will be a range of features and amenities for sports betting fans to look forward to.

What Punters Can Expect

Once the retail sports betting facility goes live at the casino resort, sports fans will be able to access a range of facilities and amenities.

There will be a trio of windows for live betting along with a dozen self-serve kiosks for visitors to make use of.

There will also be a video wall featuring 17 screens, which means that visitors can immerse themselves in the action when they come to the resort and visit the sportsbook. To ensure the comfort of visitors, FanDuel will also offer comfortable and relaxed seating areas.

Keith Wall, the retail vice-president for FanDuel Group, said that he hoped the new facility would allow sports fans in the area to enjoy the same sort of exciting sports betting experience that fans in other states and areas have been able to enjoy.

He promised an incredible atmosphere for visitors to the new retail sportsbook facility and confirmed that fans would be able to place bets on all major sports events.

In the press release, the company stated:

We are excited to partner with Port Madison Enterprises and the Suquamish Tribe to bring America’s #1 Sportsbook to the state of Washington. The Suquamish Clearwater Casino Resort will be a truly impressive location for the West Coast expansion of our FanDuel Sportsbook retail operations.

Port Madison Enterprises is the business arm of the Suquamish Tribe, and its board president, Greg George, expressed his excitement about the partnership. He said that he was excited about the Suquamish Clearwater Casino Resort becoming a premier destination for sports fans to place bets.
