The Seminole Tribe leaders have announced plans to introduce sports betting at their Florida casinos in December. This move follows a legal dispute lasting more than two years, which stemmed from a 2021 agreement allowing the Seminoles to offer online sports betting across Florida and add craps and roulette to their casinos.

The agreement permitted the Seminole Tribe to accept online sports bets statewide, so long as the bets are received on servers on tribal land. But the tribe’s recently announced expansion is limited to in-person sports betting at their six Florida facilities, as a petition challenging the broader online-betting issue is sorted in the Florida Supreme Court.

As it stands, the Seminoles will start offering sports betting, craps, and roulette at three of the tribe’s South Florida casinos on December 7. The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa will follow suit on December 8, and the tribe’s casinos in Immokalee and Brighton on December 11.
