Century Casino & Hotel Cripple Creek Review

Century Casino Cripple Creek Sportsbook

Until 2020, Colorado did not allow any form of online gambling. However, thanks to a referendum passed in November 2019, online sports betting launched in Colorado on May 1.

Century Casinos Inc. entered into two partnerships with online sportsbooks Circa Sports Colorado and bet365. On July 1, Circa Sports launched its sportsbook app, which boasts creative prop bets, higher and fairer betting limits, and lower holds on futures markets.

Casino owner and downtown Las Vegas developer Derek Stevens is the man behind Circa Sportsbook. An avid bettor himself, Stevens and the company proclaimed that it would allow yes/no futures bets, as well as allowing futures bets in parlays and it will not reduce limits for winning players. They also will accept straight bets, parlays, match-ups, futures, props, and in-play betting.

Circa Sports operates out of Las Vegas and launched a mobile sportsbook for Golden Gate Hotel & Casino and D Las Vegas, both located in Las Vegas.

As for bet365, there is no word yet when the sports betting app will go live, but the agreement does stipulate a minimum annual guarantee for revenue that will be awarded to Century Casino. Bet365, the world’s largest online sports betting company with revenue exceeding $4 billion. Additionally, it is licensed and regulated in multiple jurisdictions, including New Jersey, Great Britain, Spain, Ireland, and Sweden.

Casino history

Century Casino & Hotel Cripple Creek was the first casino operated by Century Casinos Inc., in Colorado.

It was originally known as Womack’s Saloon & Gaming Parlour. The name remained the same when Century Casinos purchased it along with Legends Casino in 2010 and combined the two.

The name was changed to its current moniker in 2010 as the company aimed to have all its casinos carry the Century Casino brand. At the time the facility as a whole was given a facelift that included new carpet, signage, and an overall revitalized interior appearance.
