“In addition to our revenue sharing contributions, we are hiring hundreds of Floridians and investing millions of dollars in the state.” “The Gaming Compact is a mutually-beneficial partnership between the State and Seminole Tribe that positively impacts all Floridians,” said Seminole Tribe of Florida Chairman Marcellus Osceola Jr. Additional marketing agreements with Florida pari-mutuels are expected to be announced soon. The pari-mutuels will market the sportsbook at their facilities and to their customers and in return earn 60 percent of the profits that are generated from their marketing efforts. In a Thursday press release, the Seminole Tribe announced the new five-membered partnership, which includes signed agreements with Palm Beach Kennel Club, West Palm Beach Hialeah Park Casino, Hialeah Ocala Gainesville Poker and Ocala Breeder’s Sales Company, Ocala Tampa Bay Downs, Tampa and TGT Poker & Racebook, Tampa.
Five Florida pari-mutuels have entered into marketing agreements with the Seminole Tribe of Florida in preparation for the launch of sports betting in the state.
