Prediction market roundup: Robins pleased as DraftKings ascends to bronze in rankings

Nearly 30 years ago, David Letterman poked fun of himself after his late night show slipped in the ratings. As Letterman fell behind rival Jay Leno and ABC’s Nightline, he took the slight in stride. Rather than sulk, Letterman displayed a massive billboard next to Leno’s that read: “No. 3 In Late Night,” along with a picture of his grinning mug. On Thursday at Next Predicts in New York, Jason Robins proudly proclaimed that DraftKings has advanced to a podium position in the intense race for notional volume.
