Peppermill land casino goes online

The Reno based five-property land casino group Peppermill Resorts went online with its intrastate Nevada internet poker product Monday, working in partnership with Ultimate Gaming.

Nevada online poker players can make deposits at the Peppermill Resort Casino Spa in Reno, the Western Village Inn & Casino in Sparks, and three hotel-casinos in Wendover on Interstate 80 at the Utah border, the company announced in a launch statement.

It’s a win-win deal for the partners, says Tobin Prior, chief executive of Ultimate Gaming:

“It gives us the opportunity to bring our online poker product Ultimate Poker.com to the Northern Nevada market through Peppermill’s extensive customer database,” he said.

The Peppermill statement advises players that they will first have to sign up online at PeppermillReno.com/Ultimate to open an account and then visit any of the casinos to make a secured deposit before playing.

Action is strictly confined within the borders of the state of Nevada.

Ultimate Gaming, owned by Las Vegas-based Station Casinos, is one of three operating websites alongside World Series of Poker, owned by Caesars Entertainment, and Real Gaming, owned by the South Point. Bwin.Party and The Borgata are also active in the market.
