In a statement posted on William Hill’s US Twitter page, the company said the William Hill platform went down because of a technical 메이저사이트 issue near the end of the first half of the game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles. The incident knocked the William Hill and the Caesars Sportsbook by William Hill apps and all of William Hill’s retail locations in Nevada.
The team has been aggressively working to bring the platform back to full functionality as quickly as possible,” the statement read. “We have pinpointed the cause of the system failure and are now working through the resolution with all of our available resources.”
The company operates more than 100 retail and kiosk locations across the state. Tuesday’s statement noted the retail sites were back up and running, leaving just the Nevada apps offline.
As it did in previous messages over the last 48 hours, William Hill apologized for the “frustration and inconvenience” bettors felt during one of the biggest events of the year.
Bad Timing
William Hill’s issues likely led to Nevada reporting a down Super Bowl. On Monday, the Nevada Gaming Control Board announced a handle of $153.2 million on the big game. That was down nearly 15% from the $179.8 million wagered leading up to and during last year’s NFL championship event.
The state’s sportsbooks and apps won nearly $11.3 million from bettors on Sunday.
And William Hill’s loss was likely BetMGM’s gain as the company announced its Nevada retail locations and app set a record for handle on Sunday.
Outage Not William Hill’s Only Issue
Just last week, in a separate incident, authorities charged two William Hill workers in Las Vegas in an embezzlement scheme that allegedly led to hundreds of thousands of dollars swindled from the company’s kiosks.
