Oneida Nation Names Justin Arnett as its First Director of Sports Book Operations

The Oneida Indian Nation has named Las Vegas sports betting veteran Justin Arnett as its first director of sports book operations. Most recently, he managed daily operations of the race and sports books at The Venetian, The Palazzo and inside Lagasse’s Stadium. Previously, he worked on the sports book teams at the Hard Rock Casino Hotel & Casino Las Vegas, the M Resort, The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas and the Gold Coast Hotel & Casino.

Drawing upon his years of experience at some of the most highly-regarded casinos in the world including The Venetian and the Palazzo, Arnett will oversee the sports books at all three of the Oneida Indian Nation’s Central New York gaming venues — the Turning Stone, Point Place Casino in Bridgeport and Yellow Brick Road Casino in Chittenango.

“Our new sports books will exceed the already high standards of excellence that have established our venues as New York’s preeminent gaming destinations. By bringing in a highly-experienced professional like Justin, who knows this industry inside and out, and through our partnership with Caesars, we will bring the best of sports betting to Upstate New York,” Ray Halbritter, Oneida Indian Nation Representative and Nation Enterprises CEO said.

“I’ve had the tremendous opportunity of managing sports books for some of the most highly-respected casinos and entertainment venues in the world, and I am thrilled that the Oneida Indian Nation’s sports books will be of that same caliber – as it is with everything they do. I am honored and excited to help kick off this new endeavor,” Arnett said.
