The Betfred USA Sports arm of bookmaker Betfred has revealed that it has entered into a deal with the Saratoga Casino Black Hawk that will see it offer sports wagering services throughout the state of Colarado.

In terms of the partnership, which is awaiting regulatory approval, Betfred will offer Colorado betters an opportunity to gain access to mobile and internet betting as well as a complete sports book at the Black Hawk property.

Daniel Gerrity, the President of Saratoga Casino Black Hawk, commented on the new agreement by saying that they are excited to have Betfred as their sports wagering partner.

Gerrity went on to say that with over 50 years of international experience in the industry, it’s a great opportunity to leverage their expertise along with the Saratoga brand to become the market leader in sports wagering in Colorado.

Mark Stebbings, Betfred Group Chief Operating Officer, said that they are delighted to partner with Saratoga Casino Black Hawk.

Stebbings also said that this is an exciting opportunity for both companies and they look forward to sharing their joint expertise to provide excellent service and value for sports bettors both on premise in Black Hawk and online to the people within the state of Colorado.

Colorado became the 19th state to legalize sports betting in November 2019, after citizens in the state voted to approve the measure via a referendum, with the proposition receiving a narrow margin of 51.1% of the vote, according to unofficial returns.
