A DraftKings Sportsbook bettor had a massive win this Wednesday, correctly picking 12 different MLB bets for a payout of $11,587.32 off of just a $25 bet on DraftKings Sportsbook.

The parlay included:

This bettor combined a group of moneyline bets, run lines and totals from a handful of Wednesdays baseball games and swept the entire board, winning this wild parlay at odds of +38541. The most notable outcome from this group of bets was certainly the Rays-Yankees game, where the Rays took a 7-4 lead in the top of the 10th inning before conceding a walk-off grand slam to Josh Donaldson.

The Rays lost the game, but fortunately for this bettor, the parlay had the Rays run line instead of the moneyline, meaning they just had to cover the +1.5 run spread. This could have been a devastating loss had the Rays only led by one or two runs when Donaldson walked it off, but the parlay remained intact because of the three-run lead that turned into a one-run defeat.

A handful of these teams won their games easily, including the Blue Jays, Mariners, Padres and Cardinals, but most of the games in the parlay actually went down to the wire. The Pittsburgh and Cleveland games needed late inning rallies to get the job done, as the Red Sox led 5-2 over the Pirates heading into the ninth inning and scored three runs to push the game over its 8.5 total. The Guardians trailed 4-2 in the bottom of the eighth against the Tigers, but scored six runs en route to an 8-4 win, fueled by a go-ahead blooper off the bat of Jose Ramirez.

The As and Rangers over bet (8.5) was looking bleak for a while, too, as Oakland led 4-1 going into the eighth inning, but the As put up three runs in the top of the inning with a pivotal two-run (and first career) home run from top prospect Shea Langaliers.

The Rangers then drew two consecutive walks to begin the bottom of the ninth before a Mark Mathias double pushed a run across the plate, sending the game over the total in the process.

Elsewhere in the parlay, the Mets held on for 9-7 win in Atlanta despite giving up two runs in the ninth inning and allowing the potential tying run to come up to the plate. The Dodgers, Astros and Diamondbacks all held on for narrow victories, as well, and this massive long shot became a reality for this lucky DraftKings Sportsbook bettor. The outcome at Yankee Stadium would have been sufficiently dramatic on its own, yet this bet wound up having a ton of excitement from several games across the league.

Marlins 5, Athletics 3

Miami has played a tough slate during its recent slump. Cabrera gives the Marlins the better chance in the games early innings, and the Miami pen especially the back end is in much better shape heading into this contest.

A runs-versus-runs expected analysis comes out pretty even on both sides. There is some lean against the pitching, and on a breeze-out evening the low number here would be worth a look if it got plus return.

Miami Marlins at Oakland Athletics odds, picks and predictions - USA TODAY Sportsbook Wire

The battle between sportsbook operators and local tribes over sports betting legalization in California shows no signs of slowing down. With two primary sports betting initiatives on the November ballot, and little time left, the feud between these two initiatives continues to rise. The latest development has seen additional California cities and organizations announce their opposition to Proposition 26, which they described as a measure that "directly harms local communities."

There are two sports betting initiatives on the November ballot. Proposition 26,a proposed constitutional amendment that would allow retail sportsbooks at Indian casinos and state-licensed racetracks; and the sportsbooks-backed Proposition 27, which seeks to legalize online sports bettingwhile redirecting a percentage of tax revenue to address homelessness.

State cardrooms-backed group Opposition to Proposition 26 argues that the measure "weaponizes the Private Attorney General Act (PAGA), so it can be used against tribal casino operators legally-operating competition." The opposing side further argues that the measure seeks to grant tribal casinos a "near monopoly on all gaming in California" by adding exclusivity over roulette, craps, and sports wagering.

Newly announced cities and organizations opposing Prop 26 include local governments and elected officials, among them the City of Bellflower; and Luis Roa, Mayor, City of Hawaiian Gardens. Animal rights organizations have also moved to oppose the proposal, including Central Oregon Wild Horse Coalition; Front Range Equine Rescue; Paw Project; Return to Freedom; and Santa Paula Animal Rescue Center.

As for political organizations, the San Joaquin County Democratic Central Committee has also announced its opposition to the tribes-backed proposition. Business organization San Juan Capistrano Chamber of Commerce also followed suit.

Opposers of Proposition 26 claim the proposed change in the State Constitution "allows tribal casinos to hire private trial lawyers and replace the role of the Attorney General to sue their non-tribal competitors. As a result, the measure puts more than 32,000 jobs, $1.6 billion in wages, and $5.5 billion in total economic impact at risk."

Local cardrooms have described Proposition 26 as a "poison pill,"as it would force them "out of business and result in a loss of $500 million in local tax revenue statewide." Prop 26, The California Sports Wagering Regulation and Unlawful Gaming Enforcement Act, is supported by a coalition of more than 50 California Indian tribes, led byPechanga.

Thursday's announcement of new cities and entities opposing Prop 26 adds to a list that already counts the California Contract Cities Association, Gateway Cities Council of Governments, Disabled American Veterans, California Hispanic Chamber of Commerce, and Los Angeles County Business Federation, among others.

However, Prop 26 also has its supporters. "A large and growing coalition of Indian Tribes, social justice advocates, teachers, parents, homeless and mental health advocates, business, public safety, and labor leaders allstrongly oppose Prop 27,"Kathy Fairbanks, spokesperson for Yes on 26 and No on 27 campaigns, said earlier this week.

Prop 27 is also facing rejection from a number of parties. In addition to most tribes, the proposal is opposed by the advocacy group League of California Cities, which argues the amendment would jeopardize local tax revenues; and by Californias Democratic Party, which holds majorities in the legislature and occupies the governors office.

A group of leaders of California Democratic and Republicans in both the Senate and the Assembly also unveiled an anti-Prop 27 stance earlier this month, including Senate President Pro Tempore Toni Atkins, D-San Diego; Senate Minority Leader Scott Wilk, R-Santa Clarita; Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon, D-Lakewood; Assembly Minority Leader James Gallagher, R-Yuba City.

However,earlier this week, Prop 27 scored a major supporter after Major League Baseball (MLB)announced its support for the online betting plan, which is backed by a number of sports betting companies including DraftKings, FanDuel, BetMGM, Bally Bet,WynnBET,Barstool Sportsbook,andFanatics.

California ranks among one of the biggest prizes if a sports gambling ban is overturned.Chris Gove, an investor in the sports betting space and partner in consulting firmEilers & Krejcik Gaming, estimates that a mature,online sports betting market in California could generate as much as $3 billion in annual revenue. In comparison, industry trade publication VIXIO Gambling Compliance estimates retail-only sports betting would generate $356 million in annual gross revenueby the fifth year.

Sodexo Live!, a hospitality and concessions partner for sports and entertainment venues, has launched a new North America Innovation Lab to work with startups developing products to improve venue operations and the fan experience at live events. Startups can apply for Sodexo Live!s new North American accelerator program through Sept. 12. The program is being held in partnership with global innovation specialist L Marks.

The accelerator is looking for startups whose solutions address themes such as:

Selected startups will work with mentors over a ten-week program to trial their products in a live event environment.

Sodexo Live! Recently signed a deal through 2026 to become the hospitality partner for the French Open at Roland Garros. The company handles hospitality, food and beverage services for U.S. venues such as Nashville Superspeedway, Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, and T-Mobile Park in Seattle. Earlier this MLB season, Sodexo Live! opened an Amazon Just Walk Out store at T-Mobile Park for fans during Mariners games.

Among Sodexo Live!s competitors in the venue hospitality space is Levy, which launched its DBK Studio innovation arm earlier this year that operates similarly to Sodexos new accelerator. DBK Studio partners with technology startups to deploy new services across Levys 250 venues, such as adding Mantis XRs QR codes to the St. Louis Blues arena to power a new online virtual locker room merchandise shopping platform for fans.

Levys DBK Studio also worked with drone delivery startup Valqari to add drone deliveries for fans ordering food at Purdue Universitys baseball field. American Airlines Center, home to the Dallas Mavericks, collaborated with DBK Studio to debut two autonomous checkout-free food and beverage stores in April that are powered by Standard AIs computer vision cameras.

Another hospitality and concessionaire provider to sports venues alongside Sodexo Live! and Levy is Aramark, which has partnered with TendedBar to add its facial recognition-powered cocktail ordering machine to Empower Field at Mile High, the home of the Denver Broncos.

Caesars Sportsbook Promo Code: Bet on the NFL Hall of Fame Game Today! - Sports Betting Dime

Posted on: August 5, 2022, 06:53h.

Last updated on: August 5, 2022, 07:27h.

One year after media giant Gannett entered into an exclusive alliance with sports betting operator Tipico, the US firm announced on Thursday the two sides have reworked the deal to let it partner with other sportsbooks.

During the companys conference call with investment analysts, Gannett CEO Mike Reed cited the German-based sportsbooks lack of growth in the US.

Their expansion has been slower than anticipated, and they still operate in only two states, Reed said.

In Gannetts quarterly report to the SEC, the company explained that both parties mutually terminated the deal reached on July 26, 2021. The new deal, which took effect Monday, runs for four years and limits Tipicos exclusivity to certain states. The states were not listed in the report.

Tipico is currently licensed in Colorado and New Jersey for sports betting, and it also offers iGaming in New Jersey. It also has market access deals with Caesars Entertainment for Indiana and Iowa, as well as an agreement with the Columbus Crew for access in Ohio.

As part of the reworked deal, Tipico bought out the warrants for a minority stake in the company Gannett received in last years deal. The cost of that, along with certain media fees, will be $14.7 million over the four years. Tipico will also continue to pay Gannett for referrals as well.

Virginia-based Gannett is the largest newspaper publisher in the US, and its portfolio includes USA Today and such local publications as The Arizona Republic in Phoenix, The Indianapolis Star, The Cincinnati Enquirer, The Columbus (Ohio) Disptach, and The Tennessean in Nashville. In all, Gannett has outlets in 46 US states.

Reed seemed optimistic that Gannett will benefit from the new deal.

We are already off and exploring opportunities with other sports gaming providers and expect to see increased revenue from this category moving forward, he told analysts.

A message to Tipico seeking comment was not immediately returned Friday.

This time last year, officials from Tipico and Gannett spoke enthusiastically to Casino.org about the partnership. It included a $90 million ad buy and offered Gannett the chance to buy 5,000 shares in Tipicos US division.

Gannett mentioned Tipico had plans to be in 15 states over the then-five-year term of the deal. Tipico US Vice President of Business Development Stephen Krombolz indicated the next 12-to-18 months would feature significant growth.

Shortly after reaching the Gannett deal, Tipico announced it would locate its US tech hub in Denver. The company announced the facility would create 441 jobs, and the Colorado Economic Development Commission approved the project for up to $7.5 million in tax incentives over eight years, contingent on Tipico meeting the jobs number goal.

According to the Ohio Casino Control Commission, Tipico has applied for licensure there. Both the sportsbook and the Crew, an MLS team, have applied for only an online license. If approved, the sportsbook could be operational as early as Jan. 1.

The Crew partnership announced in January is the most recent deal for Tipico.

Gannett Free to Work With Other Sportsbooks After Tipico Deal Revised - Casino.Org News

Inside the Pride is a new weekly TV show, also on the Lions TV Network. The following stations are included in the network:

The Lions announced before the 2020 season that BetMGM Michigan would be their official sports betting partner. With MGM Grand Detroit already having quite a presence at Ford Field, this came as little surprise.

With this partnership, BetMGM became the presenting sponsor for Lions Bingo and Lions Perks, which immediately made a difference for fans. Lions Bingo, which is a predictive game played through the Lions app, was introduced in 2019. When BetMGM came on board, players had the opportunity to become eligible for cash prizes and future all-expense paid trips to MGM properties around the country.

Lions Perks is also housed on the Lions app, and like Lions Bingo, existed prior to the partnership. But when BetMGM came on board in 2020, fans using Lions Perks could get rewards and special offers at BetMGM and the BetMGM Sports Lounge at MGM Grand Detroit.

The MGM Tunnel Club is an exclusive suite inside of Ford Field. Members get food, beer and wine, field level seats with dedicated in-seat service, and access to the club three hours prior to kickoff.

The WynnBET partnership has the most obvious fan benefits when it comes to the gameday experience, as it includes a sports bar near Section 222.

WynnBET Sports Bar includes televisions and a live odds ticker.

Like MGM, WynnBET is connected to a game on the Lions app with prizes including trips to Wynn Las Vegas, Lions season and single-game tickets, Lions shop credit and free bets within the WynnBET app.
