DraftKings Introduces In-Dream Betting

BOSTON—In a move hailed as a breakthrough for round-the-clock gambling, sports betting company DraftKings announced Tuesday that users would now be able to place wagers directly from within their dreams. “At DraftKings, we know the action never sleeps, and you should be able to wager however—and whenever—you want, even from deep REM sleep,” CEO Jason Robins said of the innovation, an easy-to-use wearable device that, when placed behind the user’s ear, populates their dreamscape with personalized betting opportunities for more than 20 major sports leagues, including daily fantasy. “Users can now sleep soundly knowing that if a spread moves overnight, they’ll be able to lock in their wager using subconscious biometric cues,” he added. “No more missing out on the perfect parlay just because it’s 3 a.m. on a Wednesday and you’re fast asleep. DraftKings lets you dream big—and win bigger.” Robins confirmed that payouts would be kept safely in escrow for up to 60 days for those winners who placed their bets while in a severe coma.
