The first US facing online sportsbook, appropriately named Sportsbook.ag (.com if you prefer) will be debuting eSports betting this weekend. League of Legends betting will now be a regular offering at Sportsbook.

It’s especially appropriate that US customers will finally have a chance to place bets on competitive video gaming July 4, one of America’s most patriotic holidays.  eSports is expected to have a larger fan base than American Football by the end of next year. 

“It’s a great day for America and a great day for eSports fans!” declared Gambling911.com Senior Editor Payton O’Brien following G911’s announcement that Sportsbook had added eSports betting to its site. 

Last month, Gambling911.com ramped up its coverage of eSports wagering and eSports Fantasy following a number of high profile developments in both sectors. 

Sportsbook.ag, established in 1996, is among the largest North American based online betting companies.  It also provides white labels to other sites, which are likely to begin offering eSports gambling as well.
