The Centennial State saw a huge spike in sports wagering action this past March, with earnings increasing over two-fold from the previous month. The NCAA tournament was a major factor, propelling hoops to the number one position for betting, though hockey and baseball trailed closely as temperatures rose. This all resulted in a significant windfall for Colorado, with tax receipts exceeding 30 million dollars. It appears residents are becoming more and more at ease with making wagers, particularly through digital platforms.
The Colorado gaming board just approved its inaugural initiative to encourage safe wagering practices.
