US casino operator Delaware North is turfing its West Virginia sports betting technology partner Miomni Gaming following a lengthy disruption in local service.
On Friday, word broke that Delaware North’s two West Virginia casinos – Mardi Gras and Wheeling Island – were severing their business ties to Miomni Gaming, which had powered the BetLucky online and mobile sports betting product, the only digital wagering operations that had launched in the state to date.
BetLucky abruptly suspended operations on March 6, and word later surfaced that Miomni was having unspecified issues with Entergaming, a Cyprus-based third-party tech supplier. On Friday, Delaware North issued a statement saying the company was “taking steps to terminate its partnership” with Miomni.
Delaware North said it was “evaluating all options” to resume its sports betting operations, both online and at the two casinos, but warned its customers that the task of “identifying and implementing a solution could take several months or longer.”
