BetAmerica, which made its name in online gambling in horse racing, is branching out into fantasy sports with the launch of FanEx Sports.

The new site is a hub for daily fantasy sports leagues where players can bet on fantasy teams and win real money. It’s not considered gambling because it is considered a game of skill (at least in 41 states). Daily fantasy sports games are a big industry now, and there’s a lot of competition.
