Live and online betting
William Hill US has launched sports betting services in the state of Iowa via a partnership with Caesars Entertainment. The Horseshoe Casino in Council Bluffs is now home to a full-service sportsbook, while the Harrah’s Council Bluffs location features betting kiosks. Both properties offer mobile sign-ups, so players can access the William Hill app and place bets while inside the state’s borders.
