New Jersey Moves Forward with Bill Against Micro Betting
(AsiaGameHub) – New Jersey is edging closer to prohibiting micro bets, one of the speediest types of in-game wagering. On March 23, a Senate committee approved SB 2160, sending the bill to the Senate floor for a second reading.
Good to Know
SB 2160 would prohibit wagers on the next play, pitch, or immediate in-game action.
Senators Paul Moriarty and Patrick Diegnan are the bill’s sponsors.
Penalties would be $500 to $1,000 per violation.

The bill would prevent sportsbooks from offering or taking wagers on outcomes like whether the next baseball pitch will be a strike or if the next football play will be a run or pass. Unlike regular live betting, micro bets are settled in seconds and let users place another wager right away.
Supporters cite two key risks. Moriarty noted that the format is more easily manipulated, as an insider with info on the next play could gain an advantage. He also stated that the product’s speed can lead to excessive, im…

Study Involving 525 Women Sparks New Discussion About Gambling Advertising
(AsiaGameHub) – A recent Australian study has examined the influence of gambling marketing on the attitudes of women in Victoria. According to researchers, contemporary advertising, influencer material, sports affiliations, and brand initiatives are normalizing betting and downplaying its associated risks.

The study involved 525 women in Victoria aged 18 to 40.
79% said they had gambled in the previous 12 months.
