00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:55,040
Speaker 2: of them. It's right up there week one of the NFL.

00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,880
Speaker 2: That's real busy too because we're getting prepared for the

19
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:01,280
Speaker 2: whole season. But yeah, Super Bowl big obviously.

20
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 1: I imagine you guys got a lot of people with

21
00:01:04,760 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 1: eyeballs and checking out what bet online has out there

22
00:01:08,400 --> 00:01:11,160
Speaker 1: over all one thousand props. Tell us a little bit

23
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 1: about the process of how you create all these.

24
00:01:15,800 --> 00:01:17,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean there's all sorts of different props.

25
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:17,960
Speaker 1: Right.

26
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:20,960
Speaker 2: The standard stuff is easy and over underpassing yards on

27
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 2: Drake May, et cetera, first touchdown score. You know that

28
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 2: that stuff's easy. We've been doing that stuff all season,

29
00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,440
Speaker 2: so you know, we have all our data points in

30
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:34,880
Speaker 2: our and our models and metrics and whatnot, so easy pasy.

31
00:01:35,240 --> 00:01:38,200
Speaker 2: As far as the original stuff, I mean, you know,

32
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:41,120
Speaker 2: stuff stuff like the Gatorade that that's been around forever,

33
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:45,399
Speaker 2: so that's pretty easy for us. We know it's the

34
00:01:45,520 --> 00:01:47,199
Speaker 2: orange is going to be up there, that's the most

35
00:01:47,240 --> 00:01:51,760
Speaker 2: popular over over time, blue has been very popular, to

36
00:01:51,800 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 2: believe twentyeen, that's the most popular color. So stuff like

37
00:01:56,000 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 2: that pretty easy. Stuff like national anthem and that that

38
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 2: was a little extra challenging this year because usually when

39
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,320
Speaker 2: they name the national anthem singer, we go right to

40
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:11,240
Speaker 2: YouTube and that personal has sung you know whatever. An

41
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 2: MLB All Star Games don't have like two or three

42
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 2: versions out there. We can just kind of watch that,

43
00:02:17,240 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 2: but this dude, we didn't have really there's really nothing

44
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:22,560
Speaker 2: out there, so we just that one. We kind of

45
00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 2: went in with a what a sort of an average

46
00:02:25,360 --> 00:02:27,720
Speaker 2: national Anthem number is put it added a couple of

47
00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:30,280
Speaker 2: seconds onto it and just start taking bets and move

48
00:02:30,360 --> 00:02:33,240
Speaker 2: and but yeah, a lot of the creative stuff. I mean,

49
00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:35,680
Speaker 2: it's just we're working on a lot of that stuff

50
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,079
Speaker 2: for a while. You know. Well after they announced Bad

51
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:41,600
Speaker 2: Buddy's gonna be doing the halftime show, then our wheels

52
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:44,280
Speaker 2: just start spinning. Oh this to wears a dress. Sometimes

53
00:02:44,320 --> 00:02:46,480
Speaker 2: that's going to be a prop. Whatever's in the news,

54
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 2: whatever controversy is out there, we're just gonna put a

55
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 2: prop up on it.

56
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 1: There are certainly a lot of props out there at

57
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 1: bet online. You mentioned the national anthem. It's a favorite

58
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,320
Speaker 1: for those for the big game, and you say, you

59
00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:00,960
Speaker 1: guys just literally going to see how long maybe our

60
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:03,839
Speaker 1: previous rendition is. In my mind, I'm thinking you guys

61
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,360
Speaker 1: are breaking down you know, nodes and how long they

62
00:03:06,400 --> 00:03:08,160
Speaker 1: hold this note and how long they can do it

63
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:10,040
Speaker 1: here is there's not a lot of science, I guess

64
00:03:10,040 --> 00:03:10,800
Speaker 1: that goes into it.

65
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,960
Speaker 2: Oh absolutely, I mean there's all sorts of you know,

66
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 2: how long will they have over under brave? You know

67
00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 2: the word brave over under four and a half seconds?

68
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:22,880
Speaker 2: You know, goes on and on and on. And even

69
00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,320
Speaker 2: like who do they show first when they're singing the

70
00:03:25,440 --> 00:03:30,360
Speaker 2: national anthem, Drake may or San Darnaldo. So yeah, just

71
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,440
Speaker 2: there's so many props within that national anthem. So it's

72
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:36,880
Speaker 2: just trying to create as any betting a opportunities. People

73
00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:38,400
Speaker 2: like to come in and bet the Super Bowl and

74
00:03:38,400 --> 00:03:41,440
Speaker 2: they like having that action all game long, so we

75
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,560
Speaker 2: have we just try to create the most opportunities for

76
00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:44,280
Speaker 2: them to get down.

77
00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,520
Speaker 1: We'll get to the game and the number and the

78
00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,280
Speaker 1: total and the spread in a second. But what are

79
00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,840
Speaker 1: some of the more outlandish props that bet onlines got

80
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:52,560
Speaker 1: out there this year?

81
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:59,120
Speaker 2: Yeah? Well, I like there's Stephan Diggs. Ye had six

82
00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:03,160
Speaker 2: kids from six different baby mamas. So we have what

83
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:06,280
Speaker 2: it'll be more number of kids or the number of receptions,

84
00:04:06,360 --> 00:04:09,560
Speaker 2: so that'd be six number of baby mamas. Are the

85
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 2: longest reception in the game or the shortest reception in

86
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:15,800
Speaker 2: the game. Rather, you have Mike Brable the other day

87
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,240
Speaker 2: he's going to cut off, as he said, he's going

88
00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 2: to cut off his manhood at the if he wins

89
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,400
Speaker 2: the Super Bowl. So we have over under two and

90
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 2: a half inches he cuts off. Wow, you know, it

91
00:04:27,360 --> 00:04:30,919
Speaker 2: just gets crazy and crazy and crazier, so they gets,

92
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:32,880
Speaker 2: you know, get pretty outlay in the sure.

93
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,560
Speaker 1: Dave Mason bet online sportsbook brand manager with us here

94
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,200
Speaker 1: on am FI seven to Ela Sports. All right, the

95
00:04:39,240 --> 00:04:42,279
Speaker 1: spread for the game between Seattle and New England. What

96
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 1: did it open up at, Dave? And where are we

97
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,799
Speaker 1: sitting right now? You know, three days before kickoff?

98
00:04:49,080 --> 00:04:52,400
Speaker 2: Yeah, Seahawks open four point favorites and the total was

99
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:58,040
Speaker 2: forty six. Starps took that four right away, moved it

100
00:04:58,120 --> 00:05:00,240
Speaker 2: to four and a half. Still took a little a

101
00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,719
Speaker 2: sharp action, not too much, but we moved it to five.

102
00:05:02,880 --> 00:05:06,360
Speaker 2: Public saw the Sea Yawks two. What is it about

103
00:05:06,480 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 2: the last I look, sixty three percent of betters and

104
00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:13,280
Speaker 2: sixty sixty percent of cash is on Seattle once again,

105
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 2: five point favorites.

106
00:05:15,040 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 1: Is that where the public money is coming on Seattle?

107
00:05:19,080 --> 00:05:22,120
Speaker 2: Yeah? Public and sharp sharp took him out four. But yeah,

108
00:05:22,480 --> 00:05:25,280
Speaker 2: right now, sixty percent of the total money and sixty

109
00:05:25,320 --> 00:05:28,000
Speaker 2: three percent of betters are on Seattle too. So right

110
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:30,760
Speaker 2: now the Sharks and the public are aligned. But a

111
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:33,240
Speaker 2: lot of action yet to come in, so we'll see comesunday.

112
00:05:33,400 --> 00:05:36,560
Speaker 1: For those who don't know, what is the what is

113
00:05:36,600 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 1: the significance of a half of a point. How big

114
00:05:38,839 --> 00:05:40,880
Speaker 1: is it going from four to four and a half?

115
00:05:40,920 --> 00:05:43,120
Speaker 1: Or in football during the regular season, we'll see a

116
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 1: game that's, you know, three and a half or six

117
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:47,080
Speaker 1: and a half or seven and a half. How big

118
00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 1: is that half a point either way?

119
00:05:49,839 --> 00:05:51,919
Speaker 2: Well, three and a half, you know, from three to

120
00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 2: three and a half or three to two and a half,

121
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:58,000
Speaker 2: that's that's the biggest half point. Then seven they either

122
00:05:58,080 --> 00:06:00,320
Speaker 2: seven and a half or six and a half. That

123
00:05:59,839 --> 00:06:02,480
Speaker 2: that's a lot of value to four to four and

124
00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:04,719
Speaker 2: a half. I mean, every half point counts, right, But

125
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:06,880
Speaker 2: now the four and a half, four to four and

126
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:08,920
Speaker 2: a half a little bit significant, but like four and

127
00:06:08,960 --> 00:06:11,640
Speaker 2: a half to five, that's not as significant. But again,

128
00:06:12,120 --> 00:06:15,240
Speaker 2: every half point counts, but nowhere near as big as

129
00:06:15,240 --> 00:06:17,000
Speaker 2: three to three and a half or three to two

130
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,039
Speaker 2: and a half. Obviously, as far.

131
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,880
Speaker 1: As the MVP of the Big Game, Dave maybe first

132
00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 1: touchdown scored, what are some of the players that are

133
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:27,920
Speaker 1: the favorites? They'll start with MVP. Who's who's the odds

134
00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:28,880
Speaker 1: on favorite right now?

135
00:06:31,480 --> 00:06:37,280
Speaker 2: The favorite is obviously Sam Darnold plus one twenty, Drake

136
00:06:37,400 --> 00:06:40,200
Speaker 2: May plus two thirty. The quarterbacks are always up there.

137
00:06:40,560 --> 00:06:43,600
Speaker 2: Then JSN plus four seventy five and just drop off

138
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:47,000
Speaker 2: to Kenneth Walker nine to one. Then then a big, big,

139
00:06:47,320 --> 00:06:50,680
Speaker 2: big drop up from Andre Stevenson at twenty eight to one,

140
00:06:50,760 --> 00:06:53,960
Speaker 2: and on on. You know, from there just goes all

141
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 2: we have the three hundred to one.

142
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:59,599
Speaker 1: What would you say, Davis, the percentage breakdown on bets

143
00:06:59,600 --> 00:07:02,440
Speaker 1: on the read as opposed to all the props that

144
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,960
Speaker 1: you got out there, the props outweigh just the actual

145
00:07:06,080 --> 00:07:07,160
Speaker 1: game number itself.

146
00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 2: Well, yeah, just to spread, yeah, but I usually group

147
00:07:14,640 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 2: it up to two different two different categories. You have

148
00:07:16,920 --> 00:07:21,720
Speaker 2: your meat potatoes market to spread total money line, which

149
00:07:21,720 --> 00:07:25,480
Speaker 2: includes you know, parlays and teeth. There's so many moving

150
00:07:25,520 --> 00:07:28,760
Speaker 2: parts of this right, which includes like parlays Eazers as well,

151
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:32,960
Speaker 2: and then versus all the props pretty much, and during

152
00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,040
Speaker 2: a regular NFL game, during the regular season, you probably

153
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:40,240
Speaker 2: see eighty twenty split more or less from the meat

154
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:43,640
Speaker 2: potato markets versus the props. But for Super Bowl close

155
00:07:43,680 --> 00:07:47,920
Speaker 2: to fifty to fifty, I'd say about sixty forty, you know,

156
00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 2: the big markets versus the props. So the props are

157
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,440
Speaker 2: just such a huge, huge part of this game. What's

158
00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 2: to get parlay and now the thing game parlays are

159
00:07:55,800 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 2: huge that bumps up act and obviously as well, people

160
00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 2: are parlaying every thing so so that you used to

161
00:08:03,240 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 2: not be able to do that back in day up

162
00:08:04,760 --> 00:08:07,760
Speaker 2: until like six years ago. Now props are parlayable and

163
00:08:07,880 --> 00:08:11,000
Speaker 2: saying game parlays which are so popular, and that that

164
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:12,840
Speaker 2: boosts the action up on props as well.

165
00:08:13,120 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 1: Final Thing Day between now and kickoff at three thirty

166
00:08:16,120 --> 00:08:19,520
Speaker 1: Pacific on Sunday, do you think there's going to be

167
00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 1: a change in the game spread in the total either way?

168
00:08:23,040 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: Or are we kind of locked into to where we're

169
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 1: at now this late in the week. It's going to

170
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:27,400
Speaker 1: be what it is.

171
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,520
Speaker 2: It changed half point either way. We'll be surprised on

172
00:08:30,600 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 2: either of them. It depends, you know, because those sharps

173
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:38,480
Speaker 2: come in late and are there is just such big

174
00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:41,600
Speaker 2: time one sided action on the On the again, eighty

175
00:08:41,640 --> 00:08:44,120
Speaker 2: percent of the money's yet to come in at least wow,

176
00:08:44,160 --> 00:08:47,960
Speaker 2: so they'll be huge. You know, we're taking two hundred

177
00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:51,000
Speaker 2: fifty thousand dollars on the spread bet, so you know,

178
00:08:51,040 --> 00:08:53,600
Speaker 2: so many bets tour and fifty thousand dollars and get

179
00:08:53,640 --> 00:08:55,440
Speaker 2: a couple of those, we're going to be moving those odds.

180
00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,839
Speaker 2: We're gonna get what's called my back. We're going to

181
00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 2: give a little bit of a odds to the other

182
00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,520
Speaker 2: side and try to get somebody who bet that kind

183
00:09:02,520 --> 00:09:05,080
Speaker 2: of amount on the other side too, so there could

184
00:09:05,120 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 2: be trading involved. I think the number is pretty sharp

185
00:09:07,400 --> 00:09:10,560
Speaker 2: right now, you know. I think there's I took a

186
00:09:10,559 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 2: little bit of the Patriots plus five. I'm against the

187
00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:17,040
Speaker 2: sharps and the public right now, but I can't see

188
00:09:17,040 --> 00:09:18,440
Speaker 2: you going to five and a half. But I could

189
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:18,839
Speaker 2: be wrong.
