More pie: DraftKings grabs OSB top spot in August
More pie: DraftKings grabs OSB top spot in AugustOSB minor shares analysis, assessing the moves at the top of the market +MoreGood morning. In this month’s edition of The Data Month we take a look at developments in the US OSB market.
Grab and goThe exits seen in the past year accounted for ~$226m in LTM GGR. Minor threat: The exits of WynnBET, FOX Bet, MaximBet, PlayUp, Play Maverick and Fubo Gaming left an estimated 2.5% share of LTM sports betting or ~$226m of GGR, according to estimates from the gaming and leisure team at Citizens Bank.
Share and share alike: Still, there are other puts and takes occurring within the OSB space right now, as evidenced by figures from Deutsche Bank. The redistribution of this relatively small percentage of share of wallet has occurred at the same time as there has been further consolidation at the very top of the market.

🎯 DraftKings catching up on its rival in Q3 Summertime blues: If DraftKings can be said to have been catching FanDuel over the course of Q3, it is clear that in August it overtook it – while FanDuel somewhat slumped to 34.4% for the month, DraftKings took further ground with 40.6% share. Switching polarities: Significantly playing into this shift is New Jersey where in August DraftKings dramatically took over top spot, claiming $57m of GGR vs. FanDuel’s estimated $24.6m, according to analysis from Wells Fargo.
Taking to LinkedIn this week, EKG’s Chris Krafcik pointed out the GGR generated was well above DraftKings’ long-term monthly average. At the same time, as can be seen below, the $24.6m of GGR for FanDuel was in line with its monthly take.
🔥 DraftKings takes more than double FanDuel’s GGR in August Mitigations: There are some factors that need to be considered before any conclusions are reached about whether this is a long-lasting switch. Namely, this is August, the shoulder season for US sports-betting activity, and not the period when bettors are at their most active.

New York storiesIf you can make it here: All of this is pre- the most important part of the year for the OSB operators. For an up-to-date picture – albeit very partial and very early – on the state of play between the two market leaders we can look at New York.
💰 New York handle off to a flier in September The picture is also mixed when looked at by operator. FanDuel led in week 1 and 2 with $122m and $196m respectively vs. $116m and $139m for DraftKings. But in week 3 the positions were reversed quite markedly, with FanDuel on $139m and DraftKings up at $180m for the week. 👀 Handle shares among the top four in New York Standing on the corner, watching the world go by: The picture is also mixed when it comes to GGR and even more difficult to draw any conclusions because, with DraftKings registering a minus GGR figure for week 1, we only really have two weeks worth of data to look at.
