North Dakota tribes sign new compact with sports betting

December 8, 2022

Five North Dakota tribes have negotiated new gaming compacts with Gov. Doug Burgum that will allow online sports betting and online Class III casino-style gaming on reservation land. Class III gaming is sometimes called Vegas-style gaming where players bet against the house.

In addition there are several regulations changes, the casino gambling age is reduced from 21 to 19, and credit cards will be allowed.

The five new compacts must be approved by the U.S. Department of Interior before they become effective. If the Department takes no action within 45 days, the compacts automatically become effective. The existing compacts are due to expire within a few months.

The five North Dakota tribes operate 13 gaming locations in the state. The tribes are Sisseton-Wahpeton Oyate of the Lake Traverse Reservation, Spirit Lake Tribe, Standing Rock Sioux Tribe of North and South Dakota, Three Affiliated Tribes of the Fort Berthold Reservation and Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians.

Two North Dakota Indian casinos will launch sports betting

October 9, 2020

Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians has partnered with IGT PlaySports to bring sports betting to the tribe's two casinos in North Dakota. The tribe owns Grand Treasure Casino in Trenton and Sky Dancer Casino and Resort in Belcourt.

Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa Indians Chairman, Jamie Azure, issued this statement:

"By leveraging IGT's proven PlaySports solution, Turtle Mountain will launch an exciting sports betting operation at Grand Treasure and Sky Dancer casinos backed by best-in-class technology, services, and flexible self-service products."

PlaySports betting kiosks will be installed throughout both casinos. Teller windows will open with designated hours

North Dakota laws neither allow or disallow sports bets placed inside casinos. Online sports wagering is prohibited. The Turtle Mountain Band has classified sports betting as Class III gaming, which thereby makes it acceptable under their gaming compact signed with the state.

North Dakota tribes concerned over e-tabs growth

February 28, 2020

North Dakota Indian gaming has been negatively impacted by the state's legalization of electronic pull-tabs, or e-tabs. Tribal leaders say the e-tab machines are competing for gambling dollars against North Dakota Indian casinos. As a result, tribes have formed a new coalition to combat the threat.

Since the introduction of last August, more than 2,300 e-tab machines have been installed at 570 sites across the state. Players have spent over $410 million on these games over the past seven month, which has benefitted both charities and the state treasury.
