US.- Both Wheeling Island and Mardi Gras casinos, both operated by Delaware North and the only ones to offer online and mobile sports betting in West Virginia, have temporarily suspended their offering. The casinos’ owner explained its technology platform provider (Miomni Gaming) “encountered a contract dispute with a third-party technology supplier,” which forced them to suspend their operations.
