"This now marks the 27th jurisdiction Betr is live for real money between having recently launched Betr Picks in 24 jurisdictions and being live with V0 of Betr Sportsbook in Ohio, Massachusetts, and now Virginia," Levy proclaimed.

"Virginia will be the final state where we launch V0 of the Betr Sportsbook, before rolling out our V1 Sportsbook product in existing and new states next year.

"We are thrilled to continue expanding the Betr online sports betting business by launching in Virginia today, just in time for the NFL season."

BetR is co-owned by YouTube influencer and fighter Logan Paul.  He is slated to take on Dillion Danis October 14 in what many sportsbook operators believe will be one of the most wagered on events of the year.

Some things just don't add up, as noted by Head of US Regulatory Gambling Content at Finixio, Ollie Ring.

He tweeted:

"As D:Ream once sang: "Things can only get Betr" 0.05% handle market share in Massachusetts for July 0.1% handle market share in Ohio for July Today @betr launches in Virginia. @jakepaul breathes a sigh of relief because there's no operator-level data."

Or maybe people are just betting pennies as part of the microbetting concept?

Betr's OSB launch in Virginia follows Betr's recent acquisition of the Chameleon platform from FansUnite, which enabled Betr to enhance and accelerate its product roadmap, the company claims.

The site recently introduced its Daily Fantasy Sports (DFS) picks platform in dozens of US states.  The company claimed to have 70,000 Apple App Downloads in Four Days for Betr Ahead of Jake Paul vs. Nate Diaz Fight.
