Two-factor authentication
What is Two Factor Authentication (2FA)?
2FA is an extra layer of security to make sure that the person trying to gain access to your account is actually you. After entering your username and password, you’ll be prompted to enter an additional code that you’ll receive by text to the mobile number associated with your account. Enter the correct code, and you’re in. Message rates may apply.
Why are you doing this?
This extra step lets us know that it’s actually you at the gate and not some malicious actor Trojan-Horsing around and pretending to be you. It’ll only require a few extra seconds of your time, and it’s only required (after the first one) when you use a new device or after a certain number of days of inactivity.
Do I have to enter a code every time I log in?
No. After your next log in and the initial 2FA code entry, 2FA will only be required when you log in from a new device (like a different phone or browser) or after a longer period of inactivity.
Should you prefer additional security, we do offer optional 2FA that can be toggled on for every time you log in, and we always recommend using this feature to secure your account. To set up optional 2FA for all logins, go into your Account, tap “Preferences”, tap “Two-Factor Authentication, and tap “Enable”. Again, this is an optional feature we recommend for every login. If you do not prefer that option – you do not need to take any actions to set anything up.
Is there anything else you’d recommend I do to protect the security of my account?
In addition to using our optional 2FA, we’d also recommend that you regularly update your Caesars Sportsbook account password, and never use the same password for any of your online accounts. You should also regularly review your Caesars Sportsbook account transactions for anything suspicious. If you notice any suspicious activity, report it to customer service right away.
What should I do if I have questions about this?
Choose “Support” in the account menu on the app to contact our Customer Service team.
Why am I being required to set up Two-Factor Authentication in NJ?
Due to state regulations, all operators in New Jersey must use two-factor authentication. We are sorry for any inconvenience.
Password and 2-Factor Authentication for NV Users
Password
You will need to enter your password every time you want to sign into your account. Please select a password that is between 8-16 characters long and contains two different types of characters (e.g. a-z, A-Z, 0-9).
Why is 2-Factor Authentication an option?
This extra step lets us know that it’s actually you at the gate and not some malicious actor Trojan-Horsing around and pretending to be you. It’ll only require a few extra seconds of your time.

If you're certain you're not using a proxy but still failing this check, the issue could be related to viruses or malware on your device or any other device that shares your internet connection. We recommend checking your computer for possible viruses and/or malware (remove any that are present), and ensure you have an updated anti-virus program installed and running. Once you have removed the malware, it can take up to a few days for the update to take effect in our systems. For a list of Google's recommended anti-virus software, please visit

To resolve this issue, you may need to try accessing the internet from another location/connection source.
When I upgraded to Adobe 9, the EXE link for downloading the geolocation plugin is replaced by an Adobe link in error. What should I do?

- Download the EXE reg file (link below).
- Save the .reg file to your desktop.
- Right click on the downloaded .reg file, and click on Merge.
- If prompted, click on Run, Yes (UAC), Yes, and OK.
- Finally, Log off and log on, or restart the computer to apply.

What is the difference between a public and private Wi-Fi connection? And how could it affect my ability to be located?
A public WiFi network (e.g. coffee shop, hotel, etc. where a network is shared with many other people), especially those run by larger businesses, may be associated with a location outside of allowed state and prevent access to real-money gaming. To resolve this issue, try accessing the internet from another location/connection source, preferably a private, password protected, un-shared, secure Wi-Fi connection such as your home or work network.
How do I re-boot a Wi-Fi router?

How can i get better Wi-Fi accuracy on my computer?
You may be experiencing issues with Wi-Fi accuracy because your device cannot detect enough Wi-Fi access points.
If your device cannot see enough Wi-Fi APs, it will be difficult to locate you. This may occur in rural areas or even in very tall buildings. Try moving to an area with more APs nearby, or using a Wi-Fi extender in order to detect more APs that may be a greater distance away. *(For more information on Wi-Fi access points please refer to: “What are Wi-Fi access points, and how can my device find more?”)*
What are Wi-Fi access points, and how can my device find more?
Wi-Fi access points are devices that allow one to connect to network/internet sources through their own Wi-Fi enabled device. The more available access points nearby, the more accurately we can locate you. Your device does not necessarily need to be connected to any of these networks, but simply must be able to 'see' them.

Some areas in a building or house may have 'dead zones' with little to no cellular reception - try to adjust your location in order to obtain better reception. Players in rural areas with little/poor cell tower reception may need to change their location more drastically to obtain a stronger signal.

SPORTS BETTING EXPLAINED – TYPES OF SPORTS WAGERS
Curious about the types of sports bet? Check out Caesars Sportsbook's guide to sports betting, which covers all the need-to-know topics and terms. Learn about all popular types of bets, including parlays, teaser bets, prop bets, and all the need to know terminology for betting on sports.
Parlay – What is a Parlay Bet?
A parlay is a single bet that links two or more wagers; to win the bet, the player must win all the wagers in the parlay. If the player loses one wager, he loses the entire bet. However, if the player wins all the wagers in the parlay, the player wins a higher payoff than if the player had placed the bets separately.
What is a Straight Bet
A straight bet is an individual wager on a game or event that will be determined by a pointspread or money line.
Futures Betting
A futures bet is a wager placed on an event typically far in the future, such as which team will win next year’s pro football championship game or pro hockey championship series.
Propositions – Prop Bets
Proposition bets, or “prop” bets, focus on the outcome of events within a given game. Props are often offered on marquee games of great interest. These include Sunday and Monday night pro football games, various high-profile college football games, major college bowl games and playoff and championship games. An example of a prop bet is “Which team will score the first touchdown?”
Teaser Bet
A teaser is a type of football or basketball wager in which the pointspread is adjusted by additional points in the player’s favor on more than one game. In football, a player may move the posted pointspread 6, 6.5, 7, 10 or 14 points. In basketball, 4, 4.5 and 5-point sports betting teasers are offered.
Round Robin Bet
A round robin is a series of parlays. For example, a 3-team round robin consists of three 2-team parlays (A + B, A + C and B + C).
IMPORTANT TERMS
Point Spread
The most popular sports bets are based on the point spread. The point spread represents the margin of points in which the favored team must win the game by to “cover the spread.” Bets on the point spread are usually offered at 11 to 10 odds. For example, a player must bet $11 to win $10 for a total payout of $21 or $110 to win $100.
Money Line Bet
The money line represents the odds of a team winning the game outright without the use of the pointspread. The money line is expressed as a 3-digit number. For example -150 means a player must bet $150 for every $100 he wishes to win, $15 for every $10 and multiples thereof.
GLOSSARY OF SPORTS BETTING TERMS
Action – A sports wager of any kind; a bet.
Added Game – A game not part of the typical menu of wagering offerings, often posted as an accommodation to patrons.
Book – A establishment that accepts bets on the outcome of sporting events.
Buy (Points) – A player pays an additional price (lays more money) to receive a half-point or more in his favor on a pointspread game.
Chalk – The favorite.
Cover – Winning by more than the pointspread.
Dime – A $1,000 sports wager.
Dog – The team perceived to be most likely to lose. Short for underdog.
Favorite – The team considered most likely to win an event.
First-half bet – A bet placed on the score in the first half of the game only.
Future – Odds that are posted well in advance on the winner of major events, including the Pro Football Championship, the Pro Basketball Championship and the Pro Baseball Championship.
Half-time bet – A bet placed on scoring in the second half of a game only.
Handle – The total amount of bets taken.
Hold – The percentage the house wins.
Juice – The bookmaker’s commission, most commonly the 11 to 10 bettors lay on straight pointspread wagers; also known as “vigorish.”
Laying the points/price – Betting the favorite by giving up points.
Limit – The maximum amount accepted by the house before the odds and/or pointspread are changed.
Line – The current odds or pointspread on a particular event.
Listed pitchers – A baseball bet placed only if both of the pitchers scheduled to start a game actually start. If they don’t, the bet is deemed “No Action” and refunded.
Longshot – A team perceived to be unlikely to win.
Middle – To win both sides of a game; wagering on the underdog at one pointspread and the favorite at a different pointspread and winning both sides. For example, if the player bets the underdog +4 ½ and the favorite -3 ½ and the favorite wins by 4, the player has middled the book and won both bets.
