A lot has changed since the calendar flipped from February to March. In this week's episode of the Doggy Juice Pod, I talk about the state of the sports betting industry as the world continues to navigate the coronavirus pandemic. We are living in unprecedented times, and while it remains to be seen when the major American sports are going to start back up, there will soon be opportunities in the marketplace for bettors who are able to adapt to a unique new set of circumstances. Since the wagering menu is going to look a lot different than what we are used to seeing over the next few months, bettors should be willing to adjust their normal process. This week's episode takes a look at where things stand as March gives way to April, and how we can get ahead of the curve by starting to prepare for what's to come. __Also read:__ [How a revamped NBA season would impact the betting market](https://www.betchicago.com/how-revamped-nba-season-impacts-betting-market) This spring, a new episode of Doggy Juice will be released every week.

      <div><p>As legalized sports betting expands, so too are the wagering options available to gamblers. Sportsbooks are getting more and more creative in what they’re posting on their oddsboards. While traditional pre-event bets – such as point spreads, moneylines and totals – remain popular, live betting is become a larger part of the sports betting experience.  Also, prop bets aren’t just for the Super Bowl anymore. In fact, there are props to wager on for practically any sporting event around the world.</p><p>Whether it’s on the <a href="https://www.betchicago.com/nfl-betting">NFL</a>, <a href="https://www.betchicago.com/college-football-betting">college football</a>, <a href="https://www.betchicago.com/mlb-betting/home">MLB</a>, <a href="https://www.betchicago.com/nba-betting">NBA</a>, <a href="https://www.betchicago.com/ncaa-basketball-betting">NCAA basketball</a>, <a href="https://www.betchicago.com/nhl-betting">NHL</a>, <a href="https://www.betchicago.com/soccer-betting">soccer</a>, <a href="https://www.betchicago.com/nascar-betting">NASCAR</a>, <a href="https://www.betchicago.com/ufc-betting">UFC</a>, <a href="https://www.betchicago.com/boxing">boxing</a>, <a href="https://www.betchicago.com/horse-racing-odds">horse racing</a>, <a href="https://www.betchicago.com/tennis-odds">tennis</a>, entertainment or eSports, it’s difficult to win long term betting on sports.
