College Basketball Bettors Flocking To WynnBET In Massachusetts

During the sports betting launch weekend in Massachusetts, WynnBET emerged as an ideal destination for college basketball enthusiasts.

According to WynnBET communications specialist Travis Eldridge, between March 10-12, college basketball conference tournament games accounted for 44% of all bets made at WynnBET in Massachusetts.

Massachusetts introduced online sports betting on March 10, conveniently aligning with the peak of college basketball tournament excitement. The weekend of MA’s launch witnessed the culmination of several significant college conference tournaments, such as the Big Ten, Big 12, Pac-12, ACC, SEC, and Big East tournaments.

Boston betting more on college basketball than NBA

Over the weekend, college basketball betting at the WynnBET Sportsbook at Encore Boston Harbor nearly doubled the handle of NBA betting.

According to Eldridge, “Boston has been known for not being a major hub for college sports, but our perspective has changed when it comes to betting.”

Furthermore, Eldridge pointed out that WynnBET MA has witnessed considerable popularity in betting on both the Boston Celtics and Bruins.

As of Wednesday morning, the Celtics have received 86% of the NBA champion futures bets at WynnBET. Meanwhile, for the NHL, the Bruins have garnered 89% of the Stanley Cup winner bets.

The figures reported to Play MA by other Massachusetts online sportsbooks are in line with those mentioned above.

According to Play MA, BetMGM Massachusetts reported that 74.1% of its NBA Finals futures bets were placed on the Celtics, significantly higher than the national average of 12.5%. Additionally, during the launch weekend, DraftKings Sportsbook MA stated that the Bruins and Celtics were the most popular teams for betting, with the Bruins receiving more bets than the Celtics.
