Rush Street Interactive launches its online sportsbook BetRivers.com in Colorado today through its partnership with JP McGill’s Hotel & Casino, located in Cripple Creek. The website will offer players the chance to be among the first sports fans to ever place a legal bet in the Centennial State.

BetRivers.com will offer wagers on a variety of US and worldwide sports that are currently playing, as well as future bets on all major US sports, including the NFL, NBA, NHL, and MLB. 

Today’s launch catalog will include tennis, soccer, golf, plus country-specific specialties from around the globe such as Korean baseball, Taiwanese basketball, Russian ice hockey, English darts, and the fan favorite, Ukrainian and Russian table tennis.  

As soon as any other sports leagues resume, placing bets on those games and events will be available to BetRivers.com players in Colorado said the firm.

The sportsbook will also offer its players bets on esport events such as eNascar, League of Legends, and Counter-Strike. In addition, BetRivers will be live streaming events daily to give players the chance to watch events while they bet. 

“We are thrilled to debut our BetRivers.com brand in Colorado and offer sports bettors our unique and compelling player experience that our customers in other states already enjoy,” said Richard Schwartz, President of Rush Street Interactive.

“We know sports bettors throughout the state of Colorado are really going to appreciate the ease and convenience of being able to place wagers online from the comfort of their homes.  We are eager for Colorado players to give our BetRivers.com web/mobile site a try to see why so many players in other states have chosen to bet with our sportsbook.”

Larry Hill, CEO of JP McGill’s Hotel and Casino, commented: “Rush Street Interactive has built an outstanding reputation with its top rated online and retail sportsbooks in other states, which was very important to us when choosing them as our partner. That success and expertise is critical and when you combine that with their exceptional customer service and commitment to player integrity and transparency, it was the smart decision to partner with them in launching BetRivers.com in Colorado.”
