Low Rollers Podcast, Episode 94: WVU Researcher Matt Mullis On Gamblers' Habits
Weekly show also examines three states offered casino expansion hope by major midterm election outcomes
On the Nov. 5, 2026 episode of Casino Reports’ weekly gaming-biz podcast, I welcome Matt Mullis, a doctoral student researcher at the West Virginia University Center for Gaming Research and Development, for his insights on the correlation between social security check distribution and VGT play, what he’s observed about online casino cross-sell, how close several states are to reaching iGaming maturation, and more.
I also break down how the midterm election results in Texas, Ohio, and Georgia impact hopes for casino expansion in those states, and I celebrate my old pal Jeff Edelstein winning a DraftKings GPP but not being able to enjoy his victory for long.
