Talk about perfect timing. As the Philadelphia Eagles were busy making final preparations for their NFL Wild Card game against the Super Bowl champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Unibet NJ online casino was busy updating its game plan.
Let’s just say Garden State Unibet customers can now literally double down on the Birds thanks to the launch of Eagles-themed live dealer blackjack.
Parent company Kindred Group shared the details via press release.
The company said this newest offering is part of a large game portfolio available to Unibet customers, which includes other Eagles-branded games.
More about Eagles live dealer blackjack
The new game is tied into a partnership between the NFL franchise and the NJ online casino operator. When watching Philadelphia Eagles home games on TV, the cameras usually capture a few shots of the Unibet logo.
As far as the Eagles live dealer blackjack game goes, there is a minimum $25 bet while $2,000 a hand is the max. The table also includes the team logo. Evolution Gaming is the company behind the game.
“Evolution Gaming has created another world-class live dealer game that allows our customers to interact with real casino dealers through an internet video feed,” said Manuel Stan, SVP Kindred US. “We know our New Jersey customers want authentic, high-quality game experiences.
“Through our partnership, they’ll have access to Unibet’s newest live dealer game just in time for the Eagles playoff game against Tampa Bay this Sunday, January 16. We’re happy to provide our customers with another way to support their favorite NFL team, as they get ready to make their playoff run.”
The Pennsylvania version of the app also includes an Eagles-branded online slot and blackjack offerings. No word if Keystone State players will be getting the live dealer option as well.
Unibet + NJ online casino revenue
The news of Eagles live dealer blackjack also dropped on the same day as NJ online casino revenue set another record.
The $133 million shatters the previous mark of $127 million set in October.
Unibet casino is one of three brands operating under the Hard Rock Atlantic City license.
Bet365 NJ and Hard Rock online casino are the others. Unlike Pennsylvania, New Jersey does not beak down the earnings via each operator. For December, Hard Rock reported $4.86 million.
