Gambling: A sure bet? USA
Dr Heather Wardle meets the Native American Tribes feeling threatened by the new frontier in online sports betting.
Native American Tribes have flipped their fortunes by building casinos on their land, but that is under threat from the new players in the market - the online sports betting companies. Dr Heather Wardle meets Greg Sarris, Chairman of the Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria in Northern California, who shows her why his tribe鈥檚 casino is a lifeline to the local community, and how online betting on smartphones is the new threat to his tribe鈥檚 survival.
