Illinois Gaming Board Grants First Land-Based Casino License to Rivers Casino

The Illinois Gaming Board has granted the state’s first land-based casino license to Rivers Casino.
Granted under the sweeping expansion of the state’s gaming sector that was signed into law in June, the new license enables operator Rush Street Gaming to move its gambling operation beyond the shallow pool of water it built to qualify as a riverboat. Rivers Casino opened in 2011 under the provisions of the Riverboat Gambling Act of 1990.
Rush Street plans to invest $150 million to expand the casino and increase the number of gaming positions to 2000.
