  • A new episode of Breaking the Deadlock on PBS scheduled for Tuesday night discusses the state of online sports betting in America.
  • The panel includes former NFL player Tiki Barber, US Senator Richard Blumenthal, ESPN Sports Gambling Analyst Anita Marks, and former MLB player Ben McDonald.

LAS VEGAS – The television series Breaking the Deadlock on PBS has announced that their newest episode, airing Tuesday, March 24th will be titled “Gambling with Your Life,” focusing on online sports betting.

In the brief trailer for the episode, topics such as problem gambling, regulation, and prediction markets are discussed by the panelists.

Panelists include former NFL player Tiki Barber, US Senator Richard Blumenthal, ESPN Sports Gambling Analyst Anita Marks, former MLB player Ben McDonald, and others with a background in sports gambling.

The episode comes in the wake of an ever-expanding sports betting market which has grown exponentially in recent years due to legalization across the country.

Sports betting sites such as FanDuel are mentioned in the trailer, as it is insinuated that larger sports betting companies generally make a large portion of their profits from problem gamblers.

Alan Levy, the founder of AIPredictions.ai is also on the panel, as the effect of AI on sports gambling is brought up as well.

Those interested can find the trailer here and watch the episode on PBS tomorrow night as the discussion around mobile sports betting sites heats up across the nation.
