MARCH MADNESS GUEST: Sid Rosenberg, is US Spokesman for BRAGG Gaming Group and host of “Sid and Bernie in the Morning,” and “Sid Sports Sunday” on 770 WABC in NYC.

As March Madness gets underway, the gambling industry is set to make a splash. The American Gaming Association is projecting $8.5 billion in action this year, from both legal and illegal betting markets. So how much will the sports gaming space benefit from the nationwide college tournament?

Some March Madness Stats:
An American Gaming Association (AGA) report estimates as much as $10 billion wagered on the illegal market last year.
Last year alone, bettors put up more than $300 million on the NCAA Tournament through Nevada sports betting alone.
Despite the fact that seven states are allowing legal sports betting for the first time, fewer than one in 10 of an expected 47 million bettors nationwide will place their wagers legally — either through a casino sportsbook or an above-board app, according to an estimate by the American Gaming Association.
Play.USA is projecting that Nevada will lead the gaming space, raking in about $300 million for the tournament and NJ coming in second, taking in around $75 million.
Since legal, NJ saw $1.6 billion in wagers, as sportsbooks took in $112 million and the state raked in $14 million in taxes.
Based in the UK, BRAGG Gaming Group’s holdings include the largest sports news site in the world, GIVEMESPORT. With a Facebook following of 26 million fans, GIVEMESPORT currently rivals ESPN and Sky Sports with over 30 million monthly unique users. The platform has encouraged BRAGG Gaming to develop GIVEMEBET, a new online sports betting sportsbook, that will complement GIVEMESPORT’s leading position in digital sports publishing… and they see great promise here in the United States.
