In this age where you can bet on nearly anything sports. It’s clear that betting all around the world, legal or illegal, is growing at a great pace. NBA Commissioner Adam Silver believes that expanded sports betting is “Inevitable” according to Bloomberg.com.
“It’s inevitable that, if all these states are broke, that there will be legalized sports betting in more states than Nevada and we will ultimately participate in that,” said Silver, 52.
“If you have a gentleman’s bet or a small wager on any kind of sports contest, it makes you that much more engaged in it,” Silver said. “That’s where we’re going to see it pay dividends. If people are watching a game and clicking to bet on their smartphones, which is what people are doing in the United Kingdom right now, then it’s much more likely you’re going to stay tuned for a long time.”
I can’t believe the UK has something that the US doesn’t. This is a rare win! Go United Kingdom!
Sports betting here is a thriving business. There are so many options in terms of brands and when there’s a game on and you can now bet in-play, that kicks things up a notch.
