After having its Gaming Compact approved by the State of Florida and the Tribe in 2021, the Seminole Tribe of Florida has announced plans to expand its casino games to include craps, roulette and sports betting at all six Seminole Casinos, including the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino and Seminole Classic Casino.
This is in spite of an attempt to block the Compact, which was blocked by the US Supreme Court on 25 October.
The three new casino games will become available on 7 December at three of the Seminole Tribe casino locations; Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood, Seminole Classic Casino in Hollywood and Seminole Casino Coconut Creek.
The next day, the games will be available at Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa and on Monday 11, the games will arrive at Seminole Casino Immokalee and Seminole Brighton Casino.
Naturally, the Tribe has announced star-studded celebrations will occur in December to celebrate the launch.
The Seminole Tribe has been operating casinos and gambling locations for decades, being the first Indian Tribe in North America to open an unlimited-stakes bingo hall all the way back in 1979.
On the opening of these news games, and on the actions of varying US departments, Chairman of the Seminole Tribe of Florida Marcellus Osceola Jr. Said, “The Seminole Tribe thanks the State of Florida, the US Department of the Interior and the U.S.
“Department of Justice for defending our Compact. By working together, the Tribe, the State and the federal government achieved a historic legal victory.”
