March Madness is busiest time of year for sports betting in Connecticut – NBC Connecticut

This is officially the beginning of the march madness and with the help of sports, people are busy betraying their lucky teams.

On Thursday and Friday, Mohan Sun’s busiest in the Fanduel Sports Book is his busiest.

“This year is definitely going to be older than the super bowl. So, I think people are now realizing, I don’t need to go to Vegas to get this experience,” said Brad Bright. “It’s opening it to a lot of people, because it’s a legal way to do it.”

On Wednesday, people stopped to bet the teams in the NCAA tournament.

“I like it because it makes you interested in sports that you can’t usually be interested,” said Canton’s Leo Leonard. “It’s mostly at least, nothing is crazy, that’s why I do long shots so I hope the bottle look lightweight.”

Leonards make it an annual tradition. From the 1980s, they have taken a few days leave to watch the game, and now they bet on them.

“We are really living here for three nights because we will be in the tournament and then watch the tournament,” said Lou Leonard. “We will be doing everything I can get my hands on all kinds of parlers and championships.”

“It just more fun,” Molly Leonard said.

“Throw some couples at it,” Lo added. “Now you are passionate!”

But one of the biggest weeks of sports batting can be mobilized for people who struggle with gambling addiction.

Organizations like the Connecticut Council for Problem Gaming are warning people to betray people safely.

“This is now a frequency in apps with different propits of the propagation,” said Paul Tarbicks. Since you can repeatedly bet during the game. It is important to take time to set any limit and not to catch yourself or to pursue the losses that are causing you to worry. “

“When it has arrived at the place where you are spending money on which you should be spent … your bill or you are spending time with friends and family because you are checking sports lines and permanently on apps … If it’s affecting your mood or your work, your relationship, when it becomes a problem.”

Last week, Senator Richard Blummithhal re -presented the Safe Act in Congress. This will create safety and quality of consumers for the mobile sports batting industry.
