In addition to sports betting, theScore Bet Sportsbook & Casino gives Alberta players access to a comprehensive online casino experience featuring hundreds of slots, table games, live dealer experiences and exclusive games, including Blue Jays Blackjack.

"Alberta has an incredible sports culture, and we’re excited to bring theScore Bet Sportsbook & Casino to players across the province," said Aaron LaBerge, Chief Technology Officer and Head of Interactive at PENN Entertainment. "Fans already know and trust theScore, and with theScore Bet, we’re extending that connection into a seamless sportsbook and casino experience. Whether you’re following your favorite team, placing a bet, or enjoying casino games, we’ve built the experience around the way fans naturally engage with sports. We commend the Alberta government for introducing a regulated online gaming market for private operators and look forward to serving fans in one of Canada’s great sports markets."
As Canada’s sportsbook, theScore Bet is proud to partner with Canada’s most iconic sports organizations as the exclusive official gaming partner of the Toronto Blue Jays, the exclusive gaming partner of Golf Canada and an official gaming partner of the NHL and PGA Tour.
