Ohioans may have missed out on the opportunity to legally bet on Ohio State's playoff game Saturday night, but it didn't dampen in any way their desire to participate in the sports betting process.

GeoComply is a cybersecurity company that provides geolocation and security services to Ohio's online sports betting operators. They are able to track when and where people log in to their accounts to make sure they're in the state and able to bet. In the first 48 hours, they tracked 11.3 million geolocation transactions in Ohio.

"So I think that's an important distinction to make but when you have people logging on to their accounts, they're most likely betting so it's a good gauge of how a market is doing,” he said. "A lot of industry experts that I talk to have real high hopes that this could be a state that is a top 5 sports betting market as it matures and it really couldn't have started off much better,” Linnehan said.

"The Bengals doing well and staying in as long as they can will only be a sort of the cherry on top of the sundae there for Ohio and their tax revenue dollars that they can make from that,” Linnehan said.
