After the Mega Millions  jackpot recently hit last Friday for $124 million , it reset this past Tuesday. Yet, no one hit the July 28 jackpot. So, for tonight, Friday, July 31 , the Mega Millions estimated jackpot bumps up to $22 million . However, two tickets were sold in California and Georgia worth a cool $1 million each. Both tickets matched all five white balls but did not purchase the $1 Megaplier option. As a reminder, the winning numbers for Tuesday, July 26 were 17 – 20 – 27 – 31 – 34 and megaball 19. The Megaplier was 4x. This means that had the two tickets that matched the five white balls, the prize would be have been $4 million. Not too shabby at all for an extra $1 investment.

The Philadelphia 76ers won their last NBA Championship in 1983 . Eleven years BEFORE Joel Embiid was born, and thirteen years before Ben Simmons ‘ birth. The Philadelphia Flyers championship drought is even longer. They last hoisted the Stanley Cup in 1975 . Nine years later, the oldest player on their current roster was born ( Nate Thompson ). A quarter century later, Joel Farabee , the youngest player, was born. Despite the fact that they would have to watch the teams’ titles on VHS, many aren’t scared off by the lack of championship pedigree. The Flyers and the 76ers are among the favorites of bettors at PA online sportsbooks to win the respective championships.

Every year, the World Series of Poker adds a charity component to its summer series. There is always at least one bracelet-awarding tournament that forgoes the rake and donates all fees paid by players to a particular charity. This has been happening for well over a decade. This year, the WSOP took its action online due to the coronavirus pandemic, but poker players tend to show their generosity no matter the venue. In addition, poker players step up for charity no matter the technical difficulties and date changes. After a rough first day of the WSOP 2020 Online on GGPoker that put a hold on the charity tournament not long after it began, players returned the following weekend to play it out. And GGPoker put extra money in the charity pot as a good faith gesture. Alek Stasiak Wins Event 33 The charity tournament in this year’s WSOP was Event 33 on the calendar but only the second one on GGPoker. The first 31 of 85 tournaments were playing out on the WSOP platform in America thr...

When Pennsylvania launched its first internet gaming sites last summer, the state could not have known the ultimate benefits of that move. Pennsylvania knew that the additional gaming revenue would help, but there was no predicting a pandemic that would shut down all live gambling establishments for months in 2020. It was then that lawmakers and state officials breathed a sigh of relief that the internet gaming industry launched when it did. A Year for the Record Books The fiscal year for the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board runs from July 1 through June 30. This put every form of gambling in the state – from brick-and-mortar casino games to video gaming terminals and fantasy sports contests – in the spotlight. Combined revenue for all gambling for the 2019/2020 year was $2,724,785,117. That seems like a nice sum of money, but it was down 18% from the previous year. However, much of that decrease was a direct result of the coronavirus pandemic. To slow the spread of Covid-19 in...

The season restarts for the Philadelphia 76ers and the rest of the NBA after being on pause since mid-March . For the 76ers, the more things change ( Ben Simmons taking jump shots during an exhibition game), the more things stay the same ( Joel Embiid left an exhibition after only a few minutes with a calf injury.) Twenty-two teams hope to write a fairy tale ending at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Florida. The 76ers certainly have an intriguing storyline and cast of characters. Two young stars in Embiid and Simmons who some believe cannot coexist. And a coach, Brett Brown , who is on borrowed time to pull it all together. PA online betting apps are ready to serve 76ers backers, detractors, and NBA bettors with a full menu of markets, promos and bet boosts .
