Betting and igaming operator Rush Street Interactive (RSI) has announced that it will launch its BetRivers.com brand in Virginia tomorrow (January 28), making it the third operator to launch in the state.
BetRivers.com will operate in the US state via a partnership with Rush Street Gaming’s yet-to-be-built land-based facility Rivers Casino Portsmouth – an agreement that will permit RSI to offer sports betting in Virginia for 20 years.
Rivers Casino will be the first land-based casino in the state to launch with an online sports betting partner, though the actual casino facility is not due to open until 2023, with construction work to begin this year.
“We’re pleased to add Virginia to the growing list of states RSI and BetRivers.com call home as we continue to expand across the country and bring our exciting and trusted online sports betting product to new customers who appreciate an operator like us who focuses on earning and retaining player trust,” RSI president Richard Schwartz said.
