"Chances to open Proline dedicated sports betting lounge, third in B.C.

Chances Maple Ridge is slated to open a new Proline Sportsbook Lounge at a grand opening event this Saturday, May 24, and it is just the third of its kind in the province.

Maple Ridge’s first dedicated sports betting lounge is housed in The Well Public House at Chances, featuring an immersive 25-foot screen which can display up to eight games at once. Additionally, three self-serve Proline betting terminals give players the ability to place pre-game and live bets, including single bets and parlays.

The opening of Chances Maple Ridge’s sportsbook Lounge follows the BCLC launch of lounges at Parq Casino in Vancouver and Chances Casino Kelowna. A fourth is scheduled to open later next month at the Casino of the Rockies in Cranbrook. 

“We are thrilled to open our newest Proline Sportsbook Lounge at Chances Maple Ridge,” said Dan Beebe, BCLC’s chief operating officer. “With wall-to-wall displays and a modern sportsbook offering, we believe that the lounge will provide an exciting and memorable experience for both sports fans and bettors alike in Maple Ridge and across the Fraser Valley.”

At this Saturday’s grand opening event, from 3 p.m. to 9 p.m., players also have the chance to play for more than $10,000 in prizes, including a weekend staycation package at River Rock Casino which includes premium tickets to a Vancouver Canucks game and a $250 Gordon Ramsay Steak gift card. The lounge will also have all the live NHL and NBA postseason action on screen.

“Thank you to the team at BCLC for affording us the opportunity to add this exciting new gaming amenity to our Chances Maple Ridge property,” said Wayne Odegard, regional vice president for Great Canadian Entertainment.""
