There was a time in Nevada where if you wanted to bet on any game, you would have to go to a sportsbook to place your bet.  Many people still saw the fun and value of these wagers and things seemed fine.  But there were a lot of people who felt it was just too much of a hassle to travel just to place a bet.  Going to casinos to place bets was very expensive and time consuming.  Paying for gas, paying for parking, long wait lines for wagers, getting stuck in traffic, there were just too many obstacles for some people to bother.  

This prevented many potential bets from being placed, and kept eager sports fans on the sidelines.  Then a solution came about in 2010 that changed everything in the sports betting world.  In 2010 developers released the first betting app ever released in Nevada.  This app made it faster and easier for people to place any wager at any time from any place.  Long trips to the casino just to place a bet were no longer necessary, and more bets were placed than ever before. 

Phone apps have helped every sports fan around the world get into the game by letting them bet on any game possible.  All they need is a smart phone. Sportsbook operators are now reporting that over 50% of all wagers placed are coming from online apps. 

Betting apps are now being seen by everyone as the new way to place bets.  Locals and tourists are now discovering that they can use these apps to save time by simply using their mobile device to place their wager, allowing them to skip long wait lines for huge events like the Super Bowl, NBA rivalry games, NHL games, and March Madness.
