Back PlaySugarHouse Gets March Madness Underway in New Jersey's First Legal Year of Sports Betting

The conjunction of two of the biggest sport-related events in USA right now – the beginning of the NCAA Final Tournament also known as March Madness and New Jersey's sports betting – is finally taking place, for the first time since The Garden State had its sports wagering market liberalized.

Selection Sunday marked the commencement of NJ's legal sports betting's maiden voyage into the most televised collegiate basketball frenzy in the world. And to celebrate the very special occasion...

...a certain Rush Interactive-operated casino is handing out a very generous offer to its punters by asking them to partake in $50,000 March Mania promotion!

Play Some Hoops!

College basketball fans, this is your time! PlaySugarHouse (Sugar House Casino's online extension) is hosting a promo that is a total slam dunk from our perspective and that will last until Sunday, April 17th.

Entrants can win their fair share of $50,000 in payouts and, in order to be eligible for entry...

...registered members from New Jersey must complete their March Mania bracket by March 21st at 11:59 EST!

Players earn their Bonus Store Points once the bracket is submitted, for each correct bracket pick. As a neat bonus, wagering at least $25 in real money on a game in which one of the player's bracket picks win, additional bonus store points are won!

Who Gets The Main Prize?

Well, it's simple:

Player(s) with the highest amount of earned points gets prizes in bonus money and this is divided among players as follows:

  • 1st place gets $1,000
  • 2nd - $500
  • 3rd - $250
  • 4th - $150
  • 5th - $100
  • 6th -9th - $75
  • 10th - 24th - $50
  • 25th - 39th - $40
  • 40th - 49th - $30
  • 50th - 85th - $25
  • 86th - 100th - $10

Of course, consulting site's terms and conditions on the subject of this promotion or any other is a must and you should know by now that LCB condones this rule very strictly and is asking our members to not lose sight of this.

Comments Mattias Stetz, Rush Street Interactive's COO: "We are pleased to give New Jersey residents and visitors in the state their first chance to legally bet on the NCAA Tournament. We're especially excited to introduce our free to play March Mania bracket promotion, which will pay out entrants on each correct bracket pick, totaling over $50,000 in prizes over the course of the tournament."

How do Favorites Line Up?

And now for some sports bettor-friendly stats: according to bookies, the biggest favorites to win the National Championship and end March Madness triumphant...

...are Duke (+250), Gonzaga (+550) and Virginia (+600). Joining them at the summit of front-runners is North Carolina who are the Tournament's final #1 seed.

This season's most popular game to bet on was the February 20th clash between Duke vs North Carolina and the most widely bet teams at PlaySugarHouse specifically were Duke, Michigan Tennessee, Villanova and North Carolina.
