BetMGM is the sports betting brand of Las Vegas casino powerhouse MGM Resorts International. It was created as part of Roar Digital, the New Jersey-based joint venture MGM formed with British gambling company GVC Holdings in 2017. The brand operates in several states where sports betting is legal.
As part of its extended partnership with BetMGM, VSiN will broadcast its new Betting Across America show live from BetMGM Sportsbooks across the nation as well as from studios in the largest US wagering markets, pending regulatory approval.
The show will air on weekdays from 3-5 pm ET/noon-2 pm PT beginning August 31 and weekends from 1-3 pm ET/10-noon PT starting September 5.
BetMGM oddsmakers and sports betting experts will be joining VSiN’s hosts live to deliver their unique perspectives as the odds and lines move at BetMGM’s sportsbooks around the US.
Betting Across America’s hosts will include former NBC Sports host Tim Murray, former NFL player and Las Vegas legend Mike Pritchard, and former journalist and renowned sports bettor James Salinas, among others.
