Rush Street Interactive ( RSI) is preparing to serve as the Lottery’s exclusive provider for regulated igaming in Delaware, replacing 888. “We will no longer have a poker platform after the transition launch of our new online casino and online sports betting platforms.” “Over the next few weeks, all Delaware Lottery online casino and poker platforms will be shutting down due to the upcoming provider change,” the Lottery issued in a statement, later confirmed by Poker Industry PRO. It marks the first time in US history that players will gain, then lose, access to regulated, real money online poker.

But there will be no online poker - at least not initially. When services return, online casino will relaunch, and a mobile sportsbook will go live for the first time. In the coming weeks, the casino and poker platform will go offline as it transitions to a new platform.

In a spot of disappointing but not entirely unexpected news, the Delaware Lottery has confirmed that there will be a blackout period for Delaware online poker.
