USA is moving towards single game sports betting, and here is why baseball can be your best bet


United Kingdom had been dealing with the problem of sports betting for a long time. It was illegal under the law of the land which means all the revenue generated from the industry went to the bookies and the bettors. But in the 1970s some wise parliamentarians saw an opportunity to capitalise on this commercial gold mine by legalizing sports betting.

The USA took almost half a century to realize the contribution sports betting can make to the Government’s economy. Online sport betting was also getting bigger every day. Finally, in 2018 the US Supreme Court struck down a law which criminalized sports betting and thus paved the way for sportsbook to operate legally in the country.
The legal regime in the US is still very complex given each state has the power to make their own laws. Moreover, single game sport betting is still not legal nationally. But three states including Delaware, New Jersey, and Las Vegas allows for it. The move has reaped massive dividends for the three states, particularly Delaware, in terms of contribution to the economy.

Baseball attracts the biggest number in terms of sports betting. Punters also consider baseball as the best sport to earn money, let us see why.

It is highly unpredictable

Let us look at one of the lesser surprising results of the last season to put things in context.The Philadelphia Phillies were up against the lowly New York Mets in the doubleheader.The Phillies were hands on favourite to win the fixture given they were leading the Eastern Division at the time. Eventually they did win the match.

From a betting perspective the one element about baseball which makes it highly unpredictable is pitching. It is important that your team’s pitching is on point because a widely held notion is that it can affect the outcome of the game. It has now become a norm for teams to field a different starting pitcher in every game. So regardless of how much you have scouted your opponent what happens in the opening stages of play goes on to decide the result.

You will have access to pre-match odds, stats, etc. but all that is irrelevant if you fail to take pitching into consideration. Therefore punters also believe that baseball is the best sports to earn money by betting. So without further ado get into the game and enjoy baseball bettingto earn some good cash.
Online sports betting on Baseball is increasing

It was only in June last year that Delaware started baseball betting, closely followed by New Jersey. Many seasoned punters thought that once the football season begins it will attract most of the betting activity. But things turned out to be pretty different.

Of the US$ 7mn spent on sports betting in Delaware baseball accounted for a massive seventy-five percent. One of the main reasons behind this trend is that baseball offers a lot of options to bet on. For e.g. there is money line and run line bets and numerous prop bets too.

Long-awaited legislation to legalize single-game sports betting in Canada, which the federal government is expected to introduce Thursday, could be a huge boon to the gaming industry, especially in border communities like Windsor.

If passed, the legislation, which local politicians and labour leaders have advocated for more than a decade, is expected to bolster the competitiveness of Caesars Windsor and create up to 150 jobs.

In a news release late Tuesday night, Windsor-Tecumseh Liberal MP Irek Kusmierczyk announced that a bill to amend the Criminal Code to allow single-event sports betting will be introduced this week.

It also appeared on the House of Commons Notice Paper on Wednesday. The Notice Paper contains a list of all the items that may be brought forward on a particular sitting day and notices for upcoming items.

“This is about protecting the 2,500 jobs at Caesars Windsor and it’s about boosting a tourism sector that has been pummeled during COVID,” Kusmierczyk told the Star on Wednesday. “This is huge for our community. It’s something that has been a long time coming.”

The bill would amend a line in the Criminal Code that prohibits wagering on a single sports event. The amendment would allow provinces, which regulate gambling, to allow it. Ontario has said it supports single-game sports betting.

Neither Kusmierczyk nor any other MP will see the legislation until it’s tabled and presented in the House for first reading later this week, he said. It will likely go to a second reading next week before going to the committee stage, then the third reading.

The bill must be passed by the House and Senate before becoming law. But little opposition is expected. Both the Conservatives and the NDP have supported single-game sports betting in the past.

New Tory leader Erin O’Toole expressed support for it during a visit to Windsor during the party’s leadership campaign last January. Saskatoon Conservative MP Kevin Waugh introduced a private member’s bill last February to allow it. Waugh took over from Windsor West MP Brian Masse of the NDP, who served notice in the House last December that he planned to table the legislation again, because Waugh’s slot for a private member’s bill was earlier than Masse’s.

Masse and Kusmierczyk, a government member, began preparing for another bid for a bill last December, just two months after Kusmierczyk was elected, giving this area its first and only government member in some time.

But private member’s bills are rarely successful.

“Because it’s a government bill now, this is a huge step, because in all likelihood this is going to get done,” Kusmierczyk said, acknowledging Masse’s unsuccessful years-long push for single-event sports betting. “I am confident this is going to get done.”

Kusmierczyk said the bill “is also about teamwork,” crediting the combined efforts of the Prime Minister’s Office and Minister of Justice and Attorney General David Lametti, as well as Unifor Local 444 president Dave Cassidy, whose union represents casino workers, the Windsor Essex Chamber of Commerce, the WindsorEssex Economic Development Corporation, Windsor Mayor Drew Dilkens and Tecumseh Mayor Gary McNamara.

“We’ve been pushing at every turn… and just really advocating hard,” Kusmierczyk said.

“I think this just goes to show how much we can accomplish here for our community when we all work together, when we’re all pushing in the same direction.”

But it’s too early to “do a victory lap,” Masse told the Star on Wednesday, referring to a similar private member’s bill by former Windsor-Tecumseh MP Joe Comartin of the NDP in 2012 that was passed by the House but stalled in the Senate for three years. It died when an election was called in 2015.

“I’ve already reached out to several Senators to talk about the bill,” Masse said.

“It’s going to take some time still for this to get done,” he said. “I’m hoping the government tables it, gets our first debate and we have a vote early in the new year. Then we have to move it to the Senate. This is by no means the end of the story.”

With a minority Parliament, he added, “there is no time to waste.”

But he supported the bill being tabled as a government bill instead of a private member’s bill. He felt he and Waugh had successfully put pressure on the government to act, he said.

“It is where we wanted to get the bill, and that’s in the government’s hands,” Masse said. “I didn’t care what government as long as it’s in the government’s hands. At the end of the day, that’s what matters. We just have to get across the finish line.”

Cassidy said Wednesday that single-sports betting could create up to 150 jobs in Windsor, from those who take the bets and the money to the statisticians to servers, cooks and cleaners.

“There are so many opportunities,” he said. “It brings business here. It attracts people. People love to go in and bet on games.”

“That’s needed,” he said, “because we don’t know what the casino will look like when times change and people start to come back to work and we get to open the casino more and more as this pandemic goes away.”

The casino could prepare for it now, while it’s closed because of the pandemic, he said.

“There’s an opportunity to potentially get that up and running so that when we do come back, we will have that extra part.”

The Canadian Gaming Association estimates that unregulated, illegal sports betting in Canada is worth $40 billion.

Along with losing ground to criminal enterprises, critics have said for years that the Canadian gaming industry has been kneecapped by its inability to offer something its direct competitors in Michigan, Ohio and New York now offer.

A U.S. Supreme Court ruling in May 2018 allowed individual states to offer single-game betting. Michigan legalized it last December.

The major sports leagues in North America, including the NHL, NBA, MLB and NFL, initially opposed single-game betting but now all support it in the interests of grabbing a piece of the gambling pie.

Local Unifor leaders, Masse and Comartin have all pressed for the approval of single-game sports betting for years. They’ve called it a “no-brainer” because it wouldn’t cost anything, would create and protect jobs, protect consumers by regulating the industry and keep the revenue here.

In addition to job creation and being able to compete with the American single-sports betting market, Masse said the legislation will siphon money away from organized crime. That revenue, as well as funds spent through law enforcement to tackle illegal sports betting, would be able to go towards other things.

Masse introduced a private member’s bill to legalize single-game sports betting in the Liberals’ first term in 2016, but the Liberals voted against it at second reading, before it could get to the committee stage.

The difference this time, he said, was that the Conservatives, NDP and Bloc Quebecois all supported Waugh’s bill during a debate several weeks ago.

“The government recognized that with the three opposition parties supporting this bill, it was going to pass,” he said.

Shortly after that, Cassidy also pressed Trudeau on the issue at a virtual meeting with local labour leaders and workers Nov. 12.

Trudeau reportedly told Cassidy, “We’re moving forward on this … I think you’ll be happy with the outcome.”
