NFL’s Top Draft Pick Kayvon Thibodeaux Parties It Up In Downtown Las Vegas! by Mike Walters of Blast

As you can imagine the town was buzzing for the past few days with the annual draft taking place in sin city, and like many before him, Kayvon Thibodeaux celebrated as many athletes do at Circa Resort & Casino. The outstanding linebacker was the number 5 overall pick during the league’s draft, and after hearing his name called headed straight for Derek Stevens’ brand new property. The now New York Giant celebrated his big win at the hotel’s outdoor pool amphitheater, Stadium Swim, and enjoyed a private cabana with his crew. Of course, there to meet him was Circa’s owner DS, who is an avid football fan.”

 

Kentucky Derby Upset: 80-1 Rich Strike Pulls Off a Stunner for the Ages by Steve Bittenbender of Casino.org

At Circa Sports, Rich Strike drew odds of +30000, or 300-1, on the futures board during the Road to the Kentucky Derby prep races. When he was entered into the Derby on Friday, he immediately became the longest shot, and at some point Saturday, he was available at +20000 at the Las Vegas-based sportsbook. ‘People like putting a few bucks on the longest shots on the board,’ Circa oddsmakers Paul Zilm told Casino.org. ‘Some people are very happy tonight.'”

 

Circa Sports to enter Illinois market with American Place sportsbook by Richard N. Velotta of Las Vegas Review-Journal

“irca Sports, the sports-wagering arm of Derek Stevens’ downtown Las Vegas sportsbook operations, will enter its fourth state later this year. Stevens, founder and CEO of Circa Sports, and representatives of Full House Resorts on Monday announced plans for Circa to open a retail sportsbook at the planned American Place resort in Waukegan, Illinois, and to offer online wagering through apps within the state of Illinois. Under terms of the agreement, Full House is paying a $5 million access fee that will be amortized over the initial eight-year contract with Circa, starting when the sportsbook goes live.

 

Circa Sports Entering Illinois Via Full House Resorts Partnership by Todd Shriber of Casino.org

“The Illinois sports wagering market will soon welcome one of the industry’s fastest-growing players with the arrival of Circa Sports. Las Vegas-based Circa Sports is entering Illinois through an agreement with regional casino operator Full House Resorts (NASDAQ:FLL). In releasing first-quarter results today, Full House said it broke ground on a temporary casino in Waukegan, Ill. at the eventual site of the company’s American Place gaming venue. Circa is using one of Full House’s skins in Illinois.

‘In exchange for such rights, the Company received a market access fee of $5 million in May 2022 and will also receive payments totaling at least $5 million per year, on an annualized basis, once Circa Sports launches its mobile sports skin in Illinois,’ according to a statement issued by the regional casino firm.”

 

Kentucky Derby sets record for betting handle by David Purdum of ESPN

Rich Strike was an even bigger long shot in Nevada, where sportsbooks had offered odds on the Kentucky Derby winner since early in the year. Rich Strike could be found as long as 300-1 in March and at 200-1 on Saturday at Las Vegas sportsbook Circa. The long odds attracted a flurry of late bets on Rich Strike, turning what was a big win for most Nevada bookmakers into a small loser for Circa. ‘People love the longest shots on the board, so we took a lot of little bets [on Rich Strike], $25, $50, here and there,’ Paul Zilm, a risk supervisor who oversees Circa’s horse racing offerings, told ESPN. ‘It turned it into a small loss for us.'”

But of that record haul, just over half-a-million dollars was put down on the 80-1 long shot that edged out the field. ‘Long-shot bettors got their wish,’ Paul Zilm, of Las Vegas-based sports book Circa, told ESPN at Circa.”

The Derek Stevens-owned book is known for catering to all bettors, including sharps, with wagering limits that apply to all its customers. Circa Sports and Full House Resorts agreed on an eight-year deal with two four-year extension opportunities at Circa’s option.
