Accel Entertainment (ACEL) Uses Rice Palace Deal to Build More Gaming Density in Louisiana Habib Ur Rehman Tue, June 16, 2026 at 10:31 PM GMT+7 2 min read ACEL Accel Entertainment, Inc. (NYSE:ACEL) is one of the best e-gaming and sports betting stocks to buy now. The company’s freshest expansion move came on June 3, when its Toucan Gaming subsidiary acquired the assets of Rice Palace Inc. and South Louisiana Gaming Inc., the owner and operator of Rice Palace Truck Stop Casino in Crowley, Louisiana.
The transaction is small but strategically useful, which is exactly how Accel’s distributed gaming model works. Rice Palace adds 50 video gaming devices to Toucan’s Louisiana operations, and Accel plans to expand the location’s capacity to 60 devices in the near term. That would represent an approximate 8% increase compared with the 728 Louisiana route video gaming devices Accel reported as of March 31, 2026.
