Saracen Casino Resort, located in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, is making waves in the gaming industry as they seek approval for online play of casino games. The casino, which opened its doors in October 2020, has quickly become a popular destination for gamers looking for a diverse array of gambling options.
The Saracen Casino Resort is operated by the Quapaw Nation, a Native American tribe with a long history of successful gaming operations. Since its opening, the casino has become a major economic driver for the region, creating jobs and generating revenue for the local community.
With the rise of online gaming, Saracen Casino Resort is looking to expand its reach and attract even more players by offering online play of casino games. The casino has submitted a proposal to the Arkansas Racing Commission, seeking approval to offer a variety of games such as online slots, poker, blackjack, and roulette.
If approved, Saracen Casino Resort would become one of the first casinos in Arkansas to offer online gaming options. This move would not only benefit the casino itself but would also provide a new source of revenue for the state government through taxes and licensing fees.
In a statement, Saracen Casino Resort General Manager, Carlton Saffa, expressed the casino’s excitement about the potential for online gaming. “We are thrilled to bring the thrill of casino gaming to players in Arkansas and beyond with our online platform. We believe that online gaming is the future of the industry, and we are dedicated to providing our players with a top-notch gaming experience,” Saffa said.
The proposal for online gaming at Saracen Casino Resort has garnered support from both gaming enthusiasts and local officials. Pine Bluff Mayor Shirley Washington praised the casino’s efforts to innovate and adapt to the changing gaming landscape.
“I believe that online gaming is a natural progression for Saracen Casino Resort and will only serve to enhance the casino’s offerings and attract more visitors to our city,” Mayor Washington said.
The Arkansas Racing Commission is currently reviewing Saracen Casino Resort’s proposal for online gaming and is expected to make a decision in the coming months. If approved, online play of casino games at Saracen Casino Resort could launch as early as next year, offering players a new and exciting way to experience the thrill of casino gaming.
