Newest gig economy job: Host of your own esports tournaments on Fortnite, Madden NFL, other video games

Esports has become big business. Now, a video game app wants to make esports a "do-it-yourself" enterprise, allowing you to host your own online tournaments. A new tournament mode arrives today on Play One Up, an app launched a year ago to connect players in online matches on Xbox or PlayStation game systems, and let them wager on their skills. Play One Up tournament partners can create and host their own tournaments across games such as Fortnite, Madden NFL, NBA 2K or Call of Duty. Users can choose the game system, bracket size, cost to play and timing of the tournament.
