The Tropicana Hotel and Casino and Cantor Gaming, an affiliate of global financial services firm Cantor Fitzgerald, L.P., announced the opening of its newest 4,200 square ft, state-of-the-art race and sports book at the famous Tropicana Las Vegas.

“We are extremely pleased with our partnership with Cantor Gaming to present a state-of-the-art Race and Sports Book as part of our overall transformation of Tropicana Las Vegas. We believe this partnership will not only bring a superior contribution to the Las Vegas Strip, but will also add another ‘Best in Class’ venue at Tropicana Las Vegas as we redefine the ultimate resort experience,” said Tom McCartney, President and C.O.O. of Tropicana Las Vegas.

With the addition of the new race and sports book at the Tropicana Las Vegas, Cantor Gaming now operates four race and sports books in the state of Nevada.

Cantor’s sports wagering technology allows patrons to place multiple bets on different outcomes throughout a game. Wagering takes place on fixed trading stations within the sports book, or on Cantor’s proprietary mobile gaming devices.

Cantor will also offer its eDeck mobile gaming devices at Las Vegas Tropicana Hotel, to be launched in the coming weeks. eDeck will allow patrons to wager on their favorite team outside of the sports book, in pre-designated areas of the resort and will offer numerous casino-style games, developed exclusively by Cantor Gaming.

“We have an unparalleled database of statistics on team and player performances, and a technology platform that is accustomed to processing over $140 trillion in financial transactions every year. Our deep knowledge of algorithms and statistics enables us to manage risk across our books in such a way that we can and will take any sized bet, including on the Big Game this coming weekend. We’ve made sports wagering completely interactive – it’s no longer a passive, wait-and-see game.” commented Lee Amaitis, President and CEO of Cantor Gaming.
