  Beyond the bright lights of Vegas, billions are on the line in a shadowy underworld inhabited by fixers, scammers, wise-guys… and people just like you. Illegal gambling may conjure images of mobsters, bookies, and threats of violence… but while that underground world still exists, technology has made illegal gambling much more accessible. The same computer you use for work or to connect with friends can be used to wager outside the law. It's a thriving illegal business hiding in plain sight. CNBC Investigates the more than $100-billion business where deception and corruption can hit the jackpot... and shatter lives.

Join Melissa Francis as she follows the money trail to discover who controls this multi-billion dollar business.
