The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas and Cantor Gaming, an affiliate of global financial services firm, Cantor Fitzgerald, L.P., have officially opened the new The Cosmopolitan Race & Sportsbook by Cantor last Monday, March 7th.

“The new Race and Sports Book by Cantor, with the latest in betting technology, spectacular design and prime sports watching location adds yet another unique and dynamic element to the already exciting scene at The Cosmopolitan,” says John Unwin, CEO of The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.

Located on the second floor, and situated adjacent to Marquee Nightclub, The Cosmopolitan's new sports book welcomes patrons with two outside betting windows, and an intimate interior space by metallic red, grey and dark wood interiors. Wagering is available at fixed betting, or individual ‘trading’ stations within the book, as well as on Cantor’s proprietary mobile tablets which can be used at both the race and sports book and Book & Stage on the casino floor. Two additional betting stations at Book & Stage also are available for placing bets.

The new race and sports book also features forty-three ‘trading’ stations equipped with plush seating, viewing screens and Cantor’s proprietary In-Running ‘sports trading’ technology. Similar to the stock and trade markets, Cantor’s lines and spreads are displayed in screens and monitors located inside the gambling facility, offering patrons access to any data they need as a sporting event unfolds.

With over 65 years of experience and unparalleled expertise of highly secure real-time, global financial transaction processing, management, and execution, Cantor Gaming is the exclusive provider of mobile gaming and In-Running wagering solutions in Las Vegas, and operates four race and sports books within the state of Nevada, including the M Resort Spa Casino, the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, the Tropicana Las Vegas and now the Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas. Cantor Gaming also offers mobile solutions to the gaming industry through its proprietary mobile gaming device, eDeck™ (known as Pocketcasino at the  Venetian and Palazzo Resort and Casino), which offers casino customers the ability to play innovative casino games developed by Cantor Gaming including XtraOdds™ Baccarat and XtraOdds™ Blackjack, as well as new and exciting progressive jackpot games within designated areas of the casino property, away from the casino floor.

“The Cosmopolitan is the most exciting new property on The Strip. Its vision to bring a fresh, sophisticated and modern experience to Las Vegas in a world class venue, reflects our own mission to transform sports wagering through our ground-breaking technology. The same innovation in technology that we have brought to Las Vegas has changed the way we live our lives in sectors as diverse as finance, travel and retail. The Cosmopolitan is a tremendous stage on which to continue to build our ‘sports trading’ franchise.” added Lee Amaitis, President and CEO of Cantor Gaming.
