About FOX Bet — Little Traverse Bay Bands of Odawa Indians Gaming Authority

• Online Launch: January 29

FOX Bet is the sportsbook offered by Canadian-based The Stars Group (TSG), probably best known for its PokerStars brand. The company pulled the plug on BetStars in favor of FOX Bet following a May 2019 Partnership agreement between the broadcasting and gaming companies. The FOX Bet sportsbook that originally launched in New Jersey as BetStars, got a facelift after the FOX Sports deal and now features promos with Colin Cowherd and other FOX Sports figures’ faces on it.

On September 25, 2020, the Odawa Casino Resort in Petoskey announced the soft launch of its brand new retail sportsbook, which would be followed by its grand opening on October 8, 2020. While the tribe’s Mackinaw City location has yet to debut a brick-and-mortar sportsbook of their own, the location does offer retail sports betting via kiosks found on the gaming floor
