‘Plastered in your face’
FanDuel, too, told CNN it views sports betting as a form of entertainment.

“We want our customers to think of their time and budgets on our platform the same way they might think about going to see a movie,” said Fox at FanDuel. [[https://tripskan39.cc/|tripscan top]]

But at least some bettors try to leverage it into income — like Colby Aaron Wells, now 33, who began sports betting in Tennessee nearly a decade ago to make extra money. (The state legalized certain daily fantasy sports contests on apps in 2016.)

He said he was “working his butt off” at a landscaping job at the time, and he thought he could make a little extra money to pay the bills.

In Wells’ years of app betting, including after sports betting was legalized more widely, there were months when he did win thousands of dollars. Twice, the app company BetMGM even comped him free rooms in Las Vegas for betting so much.

But there were also many losses. Wells says he could have bought and paid off a house in Tennessee with the amount of money he lost, and he has since quit playing altogether. BetMGM declined CNN’s request for comment.

All three young men interviewed for this story believed they had a competitive edge because of their knowledge of different sports, viewing it differently from a slot machine or lottery ticket.

And though they’ve stopped gambling, they say the incessant advertising for sports betting is difficult to avoid. They see promotions like “bet $5 and get $150,” and they know just how easy it is to get sucked in.

“The amount of advertisements and commercials you see everywhere,” said Vo, “it’s literally plastered in your face.”
