Bally’s Atlantic City is still connected with Caesars, but the two properties are now separately owned.
Bally’s Corp. (previously known as Twin River Worldwide Holdings) now officially owns the hotel and casino located at Park Place and the Boardwalk.
While Borgata was the last casino to reopen in Atlantic City, it will be the first of the city’s poker rooms to welcome back players. It’s by far the busiest against the competition, which includes.
The announcement was made via press release.

- Towering over Atlantic City's world famous boardwalk, the 48 story Bally's Atlantic City (N.J.) is a dazzling entertainment destination with numerous activities, award winning restaurants and an 80,000 square foot casino open 24 hours a day.
- An online poker room is a far more remote possibility. The New Jersey poker market is overcrowded as it is with the three existing networks. What’s more, since making the deal to acquire the Bally’s property, Twin River has announced market access deals with the Australian bookmaker PointsBet and Canadian sports media company TheScore.
Earlier, this month, the Casino Control Commission approved Bally’s interim casino authorization. A full casino license will come at a later date.
More about Bally’s AC sale
The sale of Bally’s AC- which was announced in April- completed Wednesday.
VICI and Caesars will split the proceeds from the $25-million transaction.
The focus is now on restoring a brand with a storied history.
George Papanier, president and CEO of Bally’s Corp. commented on the company’s AC plans:
“We strongly believe in the potential of the Atlantic City market and are confident that we can restore Bally’s to its former glory,” said Papanier. “We are pleased to close on this transaction, which represents the latest addition in our ongoing portfolio diversification strategy, and look forward to implementing our capital improvement plans to completely renovate the property with first-in-class amenities and offerings.
“We have a proven track record of implementing strategic initiatives at acquired properties in order to drive growth and revenue improvements, and plan to bring the iconic property to a level not seen in years.”
Bally’s is committed to $90 million in upgrades over the next three years.
Specific projects and timelines will be announced soon. Restaurants, hotel rooms, and convention space are among the many areas that will be addressed.
But the new owner is ready to pump new life into the aging facility. At 41 years (on Dec. 29), it’s the third oldest behind Resorts and Caesars.
FanDuel teaming up with Bally’s AC
Bally's Poker Tournament Atlantic City Beach
At the moment, Bally’s does not have any skin in the NJ sports betting game. This is expected to change before the year comes to a close.

The company is partnering with FanDuel Sportsbook to run its retail sportsbook operation.
The temporary space, which will be located on the casino floor, is targeted for a late 2020 opening.
A permanent FanDuel Sportsbook debut is planned for 2021. Plans call for it to replace the former Blue Martini lounge area located off the casino floor.
And that’s just the retail sports betting plans.
On the mobile side, there are two strategic patrnerships:
- Esports Entertainment Group
- Sporttrade
There are no details regarding potential launch dates.
A Bally’s-branded app, which currently doesn’t exist, is highly likely for the third skin.
Bet.Works + NJ sports betting plans
Receiving the keys to the its AC Boardwalk property is just one of the deals Bally’s Corp. announced Wednesday.
The company also has an agreement to acquire Bet.Works, a U.S. based, sports betting platform provider, for $125 million. Bet.Works currently works with operators in New Jersey (theScore Bet), Iowa, Indiana and Colorado.
According to the press release, Bet.Works will provide Bally’s with a suite of advanced omni-channel products, platforms, software and content solutions. And this will enable the operator to “deliver unrivaled sports betting and iGaming offerings to customers on a national scale.”
Here is what Soo Kim, chairman of Bally’s Corporation’s board of directors, has to say about the company’s evolution.
“By combining our expanding national footprint of casinos, the recently acquired Bally’s brand, and Bet.Works’ proprietary technology stack, we have evolved in just a few short years from a regional casino operator into the first U.S. gaming company committed to serving our customers with an omni-channel approach, combining the best of our physical properties with a superior online experience,” said Kim.
Bally’s and Sinclair Broadcasting deal
Wheeling and dealing is the theme of the week. The company also revealed details of a strategic partnership with Sinclair Broadcast Group.
Through this deal, Bally’s will integrate content into the 190 television stations that Sinclair owns, operates or provides services.
Here are a few key components to the deal:
- Sinclair and Bally’s will jointly market, design and integrate products on a state-by-state basis, and deliver one-of-a-kind online gaming experiences to local audiences.
- 21 Fox regional sports network brands will be rebranded using the Bally’s name.
- Bally’s will gain extensive access to Sinclair’s network of local, live sports content as the unified network brand and integrated partner across 21 regional network.
So Bally’s Atlantic City is a major piece of the puzzle. At the same time, Bally’s Corp. is thinking outside the New Jersey box.
Here in the Garden State, the focus will be on the prime real estate sitting at Park Place and the Boardwalk.
