Caesars Palace Online Casino has surpassed all our expectations so far, and we are just getting started.”

Expansions in 2024

Before that move, Caesars Entertainment launched Caesars NHL Blackjack during the 2024 Stanley Cup Playoffs, expanding its selection of iGaming products. Caesars NHL Blackjack became available to play under the Live Dealer lobby available via Caesars Digital. The partnership also featured Caesars Entertainment's lock-up logo and partnership designation with the NHL on every Caesars Digital iGaming platform.
