Sportsbetting.ag March Madness Poker Series Underway
March Madness typically rallies college basketball fans online and around their television screens – not to mention to sportsbooks and betting sites – through the month of March. This year, the much-anticipated basketball games are nowhere to be found. The spread of coronavirus prompted the games’ cancellation.
That same COVID-19 outbreak also prompted casino owners to shut down their properties around the United States. Not only were there no games on which to bet, there was no sportsbook at which to bet on anything at all.
Sportsbetting.ag doesn’t need basketball for its March Madness, though. The March Madness Poker Series, running on Sportsbetting.ag and BetOnline sharing the same network, kicked off earlier this week and runs through March 29.
Everyone Logs On
Live poker players lost their live cash games and tournaments in the span of two weeks. They also lost most of the sports on which they would normally wager. They have turned online for all of their poker and betting needs.
There is no better place to play some tournament poker and wager on sports than Sportsbetting.ag.
Both activities require only one account. And while there may be no basketball, baseball, or other pro sports open for wagers, there are several options, such as MMA and UFC fights, cricket games, and a few other sports. And for those with different interests, they can bet on everything from stock prices and television shows to spelling bees and hot dog-eating contests.

March Madness Tournament Series
This series is different than others offered to US players right now in that it is comprised mostly of Progressive Knockout tournaments.
The March Madness Tournament Series kicked off on March 15 and continues through March 29. There will be 80 tournaments in all and $750,000 in guaranteed prize pools, all in a 15-day time span.
This Saturday, March 21, there will be eight tournaments with tens of thousands in guarantees, and Sunday nine events with even more money promised.
Tournament buy-ins are very affordable, starting at just $1.10 and going up to $525. There will be a series finale and several big events on the last day of action. The lineup will be as follows, all on March 29:
