Pittsburgh Sportsbooks

Located in Pittsburgh itself, the Rivers Casino – so named because it sits along the Ohio River in the city’s Chateau neighborhood – is the most popular gambling destination in western Pennsylvania. Home to 3000 slot machines and over 100 table games like blackjack, craps, and roulette, the casino has been open since 2009. A 30-table live poker room is also on-site. The Rivers Casino sportsbook is sure to reflect the quality, appeal, and ease-of-use that the Rivers itself is locally known for.

Aside from gambling, visitors to the Rivers Casino (and Rivers Casino sportsbook) can enjoy all the sights and sounds of historic Pittsburgh itself, from the Carnegie Science Center right next door to the athletic events and concerts at the area’s major pro sports stadiums (Heinz Field and PNC Park). In addition to the many world-famous Pittsburgh eateries and restaurants located within walking distance from Rivers Casino, there are also several restaurants on the venue’s property, including the Grand View Buffet, Ciao, and Andrew’s Steak and Seafood.

Naturally, there are plenty of bars and lounges on tap as well, and visitors can stay at a selection of fine hotels, including the Caribbean-themed Parador Inn, the Residence Inn North Shore, and several other Hyatt, Marriott, and Holiday Inn properties.

Located only 25 miles southwest of Pittsburgh, The Meadows Racetrack and Casino could be considered a long-shot to have on-site sports betting (with a more likely launch occurring sometime later than sooner). The Meadows sportsbook review, once the service is finally rolled out, should get high marks for both options and ease-of-access, particularly to those that live in the Pittsburgh suburbs.

Currently, the Meadows Racetrack and Casino – situated in the heart of North Strabane Township – has a lot going for it. Historically, it was the first Thoroughbred horse racing venue in western PA, and it’s been in business since 1963. It is also officially recognized by the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission as a heritage site. Indeed, The Meadows Racetrack remains one of America’s busiest courses even now, with over 200 racing days scheduled each year.

The Meadows Casino was opened at the track in 2007, but that temporary location eventually gave way to newly constructed gambling facilities which opened in 2009. In 2010, standard casino table games were made available to The Meadows’ clientele, and – between those and the venue’s 3300 slot machines – gaming has thrived there ever since. Adding a Meadows sportsbook to the mix will surely bring in even more customers.

The Lady Luck Casino Nemacolin, located in picturesque Farmington, PA, is one of the most luxurious casinos in the state. Of course, this is largely due to its resort status, as it is the partner venue to the famed Woodlands Resort. The Lady Luck Casino Nemacolin sportsbook review might be a long time coming, though, as the venue is situated somewhat away from the high traffic hustle and bustle of Pittsburgh, with less general traffic from daily gamblers and the like. Of course, even if you have to wait another year or so for the Lady Luck sportsbook to go live, you’ll have plenty to do at the venue and its attached resort facilities.

The Lady Luck Casino itself is relatively small, with only 600 slots and a mere 27 table games. However, the overall experiences on tap are some of the best in the state, because the Woodlands Resort offers just about everything you could ask for in a mountain vacation. From off-road tours and animal safaris to zip-line rides, spacious pools, elegant spas, exquisite dining options, state-of-the-art bowling lanes, and more, adults and kids will both have their daily schedules jam-packed with adventure and excitement.

And the best part? Once the Lady Luck sportsbook actually gets up and running, you’ll be able to wager on athletics no matter where on the resort you happen to be, thanks to online mobile betting. After all, the Woodlands at Nemacolin is the last place you want to be stuck indoors!
