February is a bit or a sore spot for the sportbook and the pay per head industry. It is, after all, known to be a slow month for sports betting across the country. In West Virginia’s case the total monthly betting handle dropped below the $50 million mark. Thankfully, March was a better month for the sportsbook industry.

Those who use bookie pay per had software have reported higher activity and revenues for March, with basketball- both collegiate and professional seasons heating up. March, of course, has March Madness, while the NBA was well on its way towards the end of the regular season, with teams scrambling to rise in seeding, with some fighting for another chance in the Play-In tournament.
