Illinois’ regulation requires a gaming operator with a temporary casino to construct a permanent property within two years since its temporary site accepted its first bets. Yet, it launched a retail bookmaker in October and hired Circa Sports to run it. Representative Elizabeth Hernandez filed a House amendment that grants the IGB the mandate to prolong the period that certain casino license holders can offer games at their temporary gaming site by up to 30 months.įull House Resorts launched The Temporary at American Place early this year. The Senate and House had a heated debate on Thursday before passing Senate Bill 0584 during their veto session. The Illinois General Assembly passed a law that allows the Illinois Gaming Board (IGB) to assess Full House Resorts’ delay in constructing its temporary American Place casino.
