?The Scoop on Sports Betting:
It was thrilling for me to attend SXSW and catch the sports betting panel consisting of Daniel Wallach, Andrew Brandt, Gabe Feldman and Sara Slane first hand. I managed to capture most of it on Periscope, so hopefully you’ll have a chance to tune in and see what the experts have to say on where the sports leagues are in regard to legal sports betting along with many of the latest developments and insights in that realm. . .
Excellent panel! View it on Periscope here for more insights:
