The past two years have seen a dramatic increase on mobile betting during the Super Bowl and 2013 will most certainly break all types of records. Yes you can place your wagers right up to the final play here.
Over the past year, online sportsbooks have spent a substantial amount of money on mobile technology. Companies like Bookmaker have developed a website specific to iPads.
Complimenting this surge in mobile betting is the enhancement of live in-progress wagering. This means you can place bets on each play of the game right up until the final seconds of this year’s Super Bowl.
“It used to be Gambling911.com would see massive amounts of traffic coming to the site right up to the start of the Super Bowl then it would just stop with another surge around Halftime,” noted Gambling911.com Senior Editor, Payton O’Brien. “Because you can now wager on each play of the game and with the ability to bet and use the Web while away from your home, our traffic has remained steady right to the end of the Super Bowl with surges during various outcomes.
“Last year, Gambling911.com witnessed a near crash of the site when the long shot safety was scored for only the third time in Super Bowl history,” O’Brien added.
Smartphones and other mobile-enabled devices have truly made the Super Bowl and wagering on the championship game an interactive event that could not have been dreamt of in years prior.
Did we mention you can now play online casino games via your smartphones while watching – say – the Halftime Show of the 2013 Super Bowl?
You gotta love technology.
