Bally’s Wild Wild West initially was known as the Bally’s Park Place Casino which opened in 1979. Almost 20 years later it was followed by the opening of their famous Wild Wild West Casino. In 2000 the company changed their name to Bally’s Atlantic City and in 2005 they were purchased by the Caesars Entertainment that since then has been their license holder. In July 2018 the Wild Wild West Casino opened their temporary sportsbook. It will be operating up until summer 2019 while the permanent facility is under construction. Caesars has already partnered with Scientific Games, the latter will provide not only the retail but the online platform as well. This way there’s no doubt that Caesars will repeat their success in Nevada.
Sports Betting Lines
Bally’s Wild Wild West betting option is pretty good. It includes professional and college football and basketball, baseball, hockey and more. Bettors can wager on games being played the same day or week or make their future bets on NFL, NBA, and NHL, and other major events. Unfortunately, the bookie doesn’t offer bets on horses.
Bonuses
Bally’s Wild Wild West offers a first deposit $300 free bet upon sign up in its Caesars’ app. And that’s it for now. Since the bookie belongs to the Caesars family it is expected that sportsbook bettors will be a part of the Caesars Rewards that offers tons of perks.
Deposit & Payout
Bally’s Wild Wild West is expected to offer the same range of deposit and withdrawal options that are used by their parent company. For now players can withdraw their winnings at the brick and mortar sportsbook.
Mobile Betting & Site Usability
Bally’s Wild Wild West belongs to Caesars, which means that the bettors can download and wager via the Caesars Casino & Sports Real Money Casino app. The app is available for desktop and mobile devices. It offers a first-time depositors bonus that can be used upon registration. Note that the app can only be used within the state of NJ, since it’s provided with different geolocation methods that easily determine the location of the device.
The website is under construction. For now there’s just a pdf file that can be downloaded with the sports bets available at this bookie.
Conclusion
Bally’s Wild Wild West is definitely a promising sportsbook. With Caesars’ experience in sports betting in Las Vegas they sure have all chances to perform great in New Jersey. They will have the right lines and the proper management, two advantages of Bally’s sportsbook. The lack of bonuses and horse racing bets is something the bookie should work on now that there are each time more and more competitors on the gambling market. Also it would be great to have more deposit and payout options.
