So I 38 00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: thought it was a good day to kind of give 39 00:01:55,920 --> 00:01:58,400 Speaker 1: you guys a chance to maybe hear a longer version 40 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: of this podcast as we head towards the weekend. But 41 00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,559 Speaker 1: just a recap quickly. Last night, we get the minus 42 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: three right with Seattle a full unit there. That was nice, 43 00:02:06,840 --> 00:02:09,360 Speaker 1: zero point two to five units on Russell Wilson under 44 00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 1: passing yardage easily under that three fifteen and a half. 45 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:13,000 Speaker 2: That was good. 46 00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: Everyone hit got it late at like three oh seven. 47 00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,920 Speaker 1: You hit as well, so that was nice. That was 48 00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:22,480 Speaker 1: the number two prop on the betting pros prop bet 49 00:02:22,560 --> 00:02:26,000 Speaker 1: cheat sheets, so that was nice. We did not get, unfortunately, 50 00:02:26,000 --> 00:02:28,640 Speaker 1: the Kenyan Drake rushing total. He wound up with twenty 51 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 1: nine yards rushing. We bet over forty seven and a half. 52 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 1: Nothing really going on the ground at all for Arizona, 53 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 1: including Kyler Murray, who did not score a touchdown for 54 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:39,680 Speaker 1: the first time in a couple of weeks. 55 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:40,919 Speaker 2: So that bet. 56 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: I'd been watching it, been talking about it, I had 57 00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,920 Speaker 1: been playing it. I didn't play it last night, but 58 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:48,200 Speaker 1: it was juiced up to minus two to twenty five 59 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,680 Speaker 1: at bet MGM. In the offshore market it got as 60 00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: high as minus two seventy five. Just everyone's betting it 61 00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: and betting it and betting it. It's a big win 62 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: for the books last night with that Kyler Murray anytime 63 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: touchdown prop which did not. 64 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:03,440 Speaker 2: Go their way yesterday.

All right, So 86 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: here are the two plays, half a unit each, just 87 00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: one unit in in play here. Okay, let's start with 88 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:15,040 Speaker 1: Purdue in a Big Ten matchup against Minnesota. This is 89 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:17,160 Speaker 1: going to be a high scoring game. If you look 90 00:04:17,160 --> 00:04:19,839 Speaker 1: at Purdue in Minnesota so far, you might go, Matt, WHOA, 91 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:21,920 Speaker 1: what are you doing here? This is kind of weird? Right, 92 00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:27,080 Speaker 1: So in Minnesota's games, the first game at home went over, 93 00:04:27,520 --> 00:04:30,040 Speaker 1: they scored twenty four points, they give up forty nine, 94 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,360 Speaker 1: went on the road to Maryland and they got their doors. Well, 95 00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:35,080 Speaker 1: they put that that was a hard fought game. Actually 96 00:04:35,080 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: think it's Maryland. And they lost it forty five to 97 00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:40,120 Speaker 1: forty four. So the overhit by twenty and a half points. 98 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:42,360 Speaker 1: The week prior by twenty points, but the last two 99 00:04:42,360 --> 00:04:45,159 Speaker 1: weeks they've scored a combined twenty one points. All Right, 100 00:04:45,440 --> 00:04:48,640 Speaker 1: I don't believe that this goal for offense is that bad. 101 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: Their defense might be that bad, but their offense is 102 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 1: not that bad. They're gonna score to night against Purdue, 103 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,839 Speaker 1: who does not have a great defense. Purduce games, however, 104 00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,360 Speaker 1: every single game this year has gone on under barely. 105 00:05:01,760 --> 00:05:05,359 Speaker 1: But it's gone under against Iowa, it went under by eight, 106 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,280 Speaker 1: Against Illinois, went under by a half a point, and 107 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,200 Speaker 1: by Northwestern. Against Northwestern last time out, it went under 108 00:05:11,240 --> 00:05:13,039 Speaker 1: by one and a half points. So the books have 109 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:14,760 Speaker 1: been pretty good here when it comes to sitting in 110 00:05:14,839 --> 00:05:18,479 Speaker 1: line for Purdue. But they don't play defense either. Their 111 00:05:18,520 --> 00:05:21,359 Speaker 1: offense is pretty good. We know they can run, we 112 00:05:21,400 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: know they can throw. I got a total of sixty 113 00:05:24,279 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 1: and a half here. I'm betting the over for Purdue 114 00:05:28,640 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: and a Minnesota team that I can't trust them to 115 00:05:32,279 --> 00:05:34,839 Speaker 1: cover anything Like I just this number. 116 00:05:34,880 --> 00:05:35,320 Speaker 2: You can't. 117 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 1: You can't go into it and say I'm gonna lay 118 00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:41,080 Speaker 1: three with Purdue or take through with Minnesota. They both 119 00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:44,200 Speaker 1: aren't good enough. Okay, but this is much like the MAC. Okay, 120 00:05:44,720 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 1: it's a Friday night game. It's a funky game. We've 121 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,280 Speaker 1: seen points, points, points. I know it's the Big Ten 122 00:05:50,279 --> 00:05:52,520 Speaker 1: and it's not the MAC. I just think that points 123 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 1: happen on Friday nights. 124 00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:54,360 Speaker 2: I just do. 125 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 1: I think points happen here. So we're gonna go over 126 00:05:57,680 --> 00:06:00,359 Speaker 1: sixty and a half. If you're a trend person, the 127 00:06:00,440 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 1: over is seven to one the last time these two teams, 128 00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 1: I've last eight times these two teams have played, So there's. 129 00:06:06,920 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 2: A little bit riding on that. 130 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: If you want to roll with that, you can say, 131 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:13,080 Speaker 1: all right, they roll with that, So over sixty and 132 00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:16,560 Speaker 1: a half half a unit per due in Minnesota and 133 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,040 Speaker 1: the other half a unit we are taking and putting 134 00:06:19,040 --> 00:06:23,760 Speaker 1: it on the Syracuse in Louisville game two really bad teams. Again, 135 00:06:24,360 --> 00:06:28,440 Speaker 1: they don't play defense. Syracuse doesn't play defense. This is 136 00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:31,520 Speaker 1: just kind of like hold your nose football. But I 137 00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 1: think it's gonna be somewhat entertaining. I think we're gonna 138 00:06:34,279 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 1: see a lot of points getting scored, and I think 139 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 1: Syracuse is going to bounce back offensively because they need to. 140 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: Now to the under. Louisville's five and three to the over. 141 00:06:44,920 --> 00:06:48,080 Speaker 1: Syracuse is four and four, so they're flat. Last time out, 142 00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:50,279 Speaker 1: the under hit, but they're two pre sorry the last 143 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 1: time out. The two last two games for Syracuse, the 144 00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: under has hit. They've scored fourteen points and thirteen points 145 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,440 Speaker 1: the last two times out. But before that they gave 146 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:02,640 Speaker 1: up forty seven to Clemson, thirty eight to Liberty, thirty 147 00:07:02,640 --> 00:07:05,359 Speaker 1: eight to Duke. I think they're gonna give up forty 148 00:07:05,360 --> 00:07:09,800 Speaker 1: points here to Louisville. Louisville can score, right, Louisville has 149 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: an offense. They can score. They scored thirty five against 150 00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,080 Speaker 1: bot Tech, forty eight against Florida, States. Yeah, Notre Dame. 151 00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: They only scored well seven points. But but the weekend, 152 00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:21,080 Speaker 1: the week before, they scored forty six points against bad defenses. 153 00:07:21,240 --> 00:07:22,119 Speaker 2: Louisville can score. 154 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:24,040 Speaker 1: I know louisvill just lost one of their best players, 155 00:07:24,040 --> 00:07:26,320 Speaker 1: when of the best receivers got hurt. But I just 156 00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,760 Speaker 1: think both teams are gonna score here. Fifty six and 157 00:07:28,760 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: a half seems like a low total, and it's mostly 158 00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,120 Speaker 1: because of syracuse Is offense. But I do think Syracuse 159 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 1: is gonna put some points up on the board. Maybe 160 00:07:34,800 --> 00:07:37,680 Speaker 1: not a ton, but enough. If they score, they score 161 00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,480 Speaker 1: seventeen points. I feel good as long as Syracuse gets 162 00:07:40,480 --> 00:07:42,840 Speaker 1: to set, gets, you know, somewhere around seventeen points, and 163 00:07:42,840 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 1: then we'll get forty out of Louisville forty seventeen to final, 164 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: somewhere in that range. You might say, Matt, just bet 165 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,160 Speaker 1: the nineteen points. It's a lot of points. I don't 166 00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:54,040 Speaker 1: want to bet nineteen points. I think Syracuse might keep 167 00:07:54,040 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: it close, so I'm concerned about that, but I'm gonna 168 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,040 Speaker 1: bet the over fifty six and a half. We're going 169 00:07:59,080 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: over Syracuse in Louisville here for the plays. So there 170 00:08:03,920 --> 00:08:07,480 Speaker 1: are two games that I'm watching for tomorrow that I'm 171 00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: not gonna bet right now. Why covid. I'm just not 172 00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:14,040 Speaker 1: comfortable betting these games yet. But there are two numbers 173 00:08:14,080 --> 00:08:18,760 Speaker 1: I am watching. Iowa at Penn State minus two and 174 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: a half is my favorite bet the weekend. Okay, that game. 175 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 1: I haven't bet it yet, but I'm gonna bet it tomorrow. 176 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:27,280 Speaker 1: I'll explain the reasoning on the podcast tomorrow. But if 177 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:31,120 Speaker 1: that number comes down, if it goes to two or one, 178 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: there's going to be Penn State money that's gonna come back. 179 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,679 Speaker 1: This opened up with Penn State as a favorite, right 180 00:08:35,720 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 1: the Iowa money poured in. Flip the line. There's gonna 181 00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: be Penn State buy back. Okay, Penn State has never 182 00:08:41,679 --> 00:08:43,480 Speaker 1: opened up oh to five in their career. They're gonna 183 00:08:43,480 --> 00:08:45,679 Speaker 1: open up oh to five this year. First time. Iowa 184 00:08:45,760 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 1: is gonna go in there and blow their doors off. 185 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:49,680 Speaker 1: But there's gonna be Penn State money that comes back. 186 00:08:49,800 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 1: Buy that number down. It's gonna be zero, hopefully a 187 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: pick by the time we see this game go off. 188 00:08:54,280 --> 00:08:56,200 Speaker 1: I think we're gonna get a pick at Iowa to 189 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: win at Penn State. So we're waiting there on that number. 190 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:00,760 Speaker 1: But I don't think it goes high than three. So 191 00:09:00,880 --> 00:09:03,080 Speaker 1: three is the worst number we're gonna lay. But I 192 00:09:03,080 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 1: don't be able to go over three, and so Iowa 193 00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:08,960 Speaker 1: we're watching that number. And then Cincinnati on the road 194 00:09:09,040 --> 00:09:12,760 Speaker 1: as a favorite against Central Florida. It's five and a 195 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: half right now. I want six, but I want to 196 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: see about COVID and who's playing and who's not. I 197 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: gotta wait to see. I'm not betting that game. I'm 198 00:09:21,120 --> 00:09:23,560 Speaker 1: not betting any college game forty eight hours out. 199 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 2: No way we're. 200 00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 1: Gonna have twenty games canceled in college football on Saturday. 201 00:09:27,679 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: I'm not betting a game before you know, twenty four 202 00:09:30,800 --> 00:09:34,000 Speaker 1: hours out for the podcast, But look out for the upset. 203 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:38,679 Speaker 1: Cincinnati can put points on the board. They can stop 204 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:40,880 Speaker 1: a lot of people. But I am a Dylan Gabriel 205 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,480 Speaker 1: stan and I like that offense. 206 00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:45,040 Speaker 2: I think they. 207 00:09:44,880 --> 00:09:47,679 Speaker 1: Can keep the game close and maybe they can derail 208 00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:52,720 Speaker 1: the entire party here for Cincinnati. I like Central Florida 209 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:55,000 Speaker 1: here catching six points. If I can get six, it's 210 00:09:55,040 --> 00:09:56,959 Speaker 1: five and a half right now. I probably will lay 211 00:09:56,960 --> 00:09:59,120 Speaker 1: the five and a half, but I want more. So 212 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:02,720 Speaker 1: we're watching those two games for tomorrow. I'm not telling 213 00:10:02,720 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 1: you to bet it right now. But I'm just telling 214 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 1: you ahead of time that's what we're looking for.

Thank you. 243 00:11:23,640 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 2: Okay. 244 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:27,520 Speaker 1: So for people who don't know your background, obviously, Captain 245 00:11:27,559 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 1: Jack Andrews is not. 246 00:11:28,440 --> 00:11:30,880 Speaker 3: Your real name, right, that's correct? 247 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:34,440 Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so what's the background? Without giving away your identity? 248 00:11:34,480 --> 00:11:37,320 Speaker 1: But how long you been doing this? You know, when 249 00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,480 Speaker 1: did you first get involved in sports gambling heavily? 250 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:43,720 Speaker 3: I have been an advantage player, which is sort of 251 00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 3: the term people use for a professional gambler that gambles 252 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 3: with an edge. I have been an advantage player for 253 00:11:49,960 --> 00:11:53,079 Speaker 3: the large part of twenty years now. For the past 254 00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,280 Speaker 3: ten years or so, it's been my sole source of income. 255 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 3: It's my primary source of income, I should say and 256 00:12:01,040 --> 00:12:06,200 Speaker 3: I've mainly dabbled in casino play card counting, various promotions, 257 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,640 Speaker 3: some poker, some video poker, things like that, anywhere I 258 00:12:09,640 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 3: could get an edge in a casino. And as such, 259 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,199 Speaker 3: when you're doing that, you kind of want to keep 260 00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:18,440 Speaker 3: your identity a secret because the casinos are always looking 261 00:12:18,440 --> 00:12:20,319 Speaker 3: out to try to make sure that you can't get 262 00:12:20,360 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 3: an edge with them. And so that's why I've always 263 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:25,960 Speaker 3: had this persona of Captain Jack. That was the name 264 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:31,040 Speaker 3: I chose on various online forums. And fast forward now 265 00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:33,640 Speaker 3: to as I've been betting sports, and I started betting 266 00:12:33,640 --> 00:12:36,559 Speaker 3: sports back in the mid two thousands, around two thousand 267 00:12:36,559 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 3: and fours when I really got into it, and sports 268 00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:43,360 Speaker 3: betting has become more and more of my daily grind. 269 00:12:43,960 --> 00:12:47,080 Speaker 3: And I live in New Jersey, and New Jersey legalized, 270 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:52,640 Speaker 3: as you know, legalized sports betting in twenty eighteen, and 271 00:12:53,080 --> 00:12:58,480 Speaker 3: it's exploded here. It is absolutely exploded. And so I've 272 00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,400 Speaker 3: seen a lot of how people are approaching these online 273 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,560 Speaker 3: sports books in the state or as well as the 274 00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 3: brick and mortar sports books, and I kind of got 275 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:07,960 Speaker 3: the impression that, you know, they needed a little bit 276 00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 3: of a guiding hand. Everyone's kind of new to this 277 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:13,080 Speaker 3: sports betting thing, and I figured, you know, well, when 278 00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:16,640 Speaker 3: people want to learn something, they tend to go onto YouTube. 279 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:20,040 Speaker 3: And I noticed that when I went onto YouTube and 280 00:13:20,040 --> 00:13:24,400 Speaker 3: searched for sports betting, the content was somewhat abysmal. It 281 00:13:24,440 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 3: was a lot of stale content. It was people making 282 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 3: a pick for a game that happened in twenty fourteen, 283 00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:31,760 Speaker 3: or it was just kind of slimy content where they're 284 00:13:31,760 --> 00:13:33,880 Speaker 3: trying to make you buy their picks and they're trying 285 00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:35,600 Speaker 3: to sell you on a system or something like that. 286 00:13:35,800 --> 00:13:38,400 Speaker 3: Nobody was giving out quality content, and I said, well, 287 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:40,880 Speaker 3: you know what, I can do that, and then I 288 00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 3: kind of sat on it for a while. But then 289 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:45,680 Speaker 3: the pandemic happened and I had a lot of time 290 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 3: to myself with no sports going on, and I said, 291 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 3: you know what, let me try this YouTube thing. What's 292 00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 3: the worst that can happen? So I decided to make 293 00:13:53,559 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 3: up some videos. I decided to do some live web 294 00:13:56,400 --> 00:13:59,880 Speaker 3: streams and kind of answer questions and put together a 295 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 3: PowerPoint presentation and it's taken off from there. And as 296 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:06,480 Speaker 3: a result, yeah, I have my face out there on YouTube. 297 00:14:07,320 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 3: I don't have my name out there, and I don't 298 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 3: intend to, but since I'm spending less and less time 299 00:14:12,200 --> 00:14:14,440 Speaker 3: in casinos, I kind of feel like I can put 300 00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,400 Speaker 3: my face out there for a change. And that's how 301 00:14:16,400 --> 00:14:17,520 Speaker 3: that all kind of came about. 302 00:14:17,920 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 1: It's really cool, and so a couple of your videos 303 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,280 Speaker 1: really jumped out to me. And the first I want 304 00:14:23,320 --> 00:14:25,240 Speaker 1: to kind of talk a little bit about to kind 305 00:14:25,240 --> 00:14:27,800 Speaker 1: of help the audience because they're all being a lot 306 00:14:27,840 --> 00:14:30,600 Speaker 1: of them are in the new emerging markets. So we 307 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: got people in Colorado and Iowa and Indiana and New Hampshire, 308 00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:38,680 Speaker 1: and they're all being presented with this very unique opportunity 309 00:14:38,760 --> 00:14:43,280 Speaker 1: to get free money, free wagers, your free bets. How 310 00:14:43,280 --> 00:14:45,560 Speaker 1: has that video because I've watched it like three times, 311 00:14:45,600 --> 00:14:47,200 Speaker 1: trying to learn, trying to get because I think you 312 00:14:47,240 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 1: break it down such a cool way as to how 313 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:51,520 Speaker 1: you maximize the value for that. 314 00:14:52,000 --> 00:14:53,880 Speaker 2: But how has the response been to that? 315 00:14:53,920 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: Because I feel like new players are getting presented with 316 00:14:56,960 --> 00:14:59,240 Speaker 1: the you know, bet one dollar win one hundred dollars 317 00:14:59,320 --> 00:15:00,360 Speaker 1: offer every day. 318 00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:05,080 Speaker 3: Yeah, the amount of free money being thrown at betters 319 00:15:05,080 --> 00:15:08,560 Speaker 3: in some of these emerging markets is phenomenal. I mean, 320 00:15:08,800 --> 00:15:11,760 Speaker 3: anyone who's who's cut their teeth betting sports in Nevada 321 00:15:12,000 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 3: and now goes to one of these other markets like 322 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:17,680 Speaker 3: Colorado or New Jersey or Pennsylvania where it's highly competitive. 323 00:15:18,080 --> 00:15:21,680 Speaker 3: They're finding that these sports book companies are willing to 324 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:25,360 Speaker 3: basically pay them to bet sports. You know, we've seen 325 00:15:25,400 --> 00:15:27,560 Speaker 3: in the financials of a lot of these companies that 326 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:32,240 Speaker 3: they're willing to spend about three hundred dollars to acquire 327 00:15:32,280 --> 00:15:35,040 Speaker 3: a new customer. So you know, when you see an 328 00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:37,640 Speaker 3: offer where they're giving you a five hundred dollars free bet, 329 00:15:38,200 --> 00:15:40,600 Speaker 3: that's not that unheard of because in their mind, well, 330 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:44,040 Speaker 3: people aren't going to play them optimally anyway. So most 331 00:15:44,080 --> 00:15:46,080 Speaker 3: people if they're given a five hundred dollars free bet, 332 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 3: where they're going to make that wager and no matter 333 00:15:48,520 --> 00:15:50,480 Speaker 3: what happens, they don't get that wager back, but they 334 00:15:50,480 --> 00:15:52,200 Speaker 3: get the winnings of it, well, they're going to look 335 00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 3: to play a sure thing, right, that's just kind of 336 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:57,920 Speaker 3: your kind of your your common approach to it. Well, optimally, 337 00:15:57,960 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 3: you want to play something that's a longer shot that 338 00:16:00,280 --> 00:16:03,720 Speaker 3: free money, because if you're betting five hundred dollars into 339 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:06,560 Speaker 3: something that has a high odds, let's just say like 340 00:16:06,680 --> 00:16:09,680 Speaker 3: minus three hundred, Well you're only going to get back 341 00:16:09,720 --> 00:16:13,120 Speaker 3: a third of that as your potential profit. You know, 342 00:16:13,200 --> 00:16:15,160 Speaker 3: you want to bet on something that's like plus three hundred, 343 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,680 Speaker 3: where your potential profit is fifteen hundred dollars, and yes, 344 00:16:19,000 --> 00:16:22,800 Speaker 3: the odds of you hitting that fifteen hundred decrease greatly, 345 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:26,800 Speaker 3: but at the same time, you're maximizing your potential profit. 346 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 3: And you know, as you know, Matt, one of the 347 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 3: things I made in that video is the idea of 348 00:16:31,320 --> 00:16:34,320 Speaker 3: flipping the script. So whenever I would tell people about this, 349 00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:36,080 Speaker 3: they would say, well, no, I'm not going to bet 350 00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:37,800 Speaker 3: on a long shot. I'm not going to bet on 351 00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:40,440 Speaker 3: something that's you know, four to one that never comes 352 00:16:40,440 --> 00:16:43,720 Speaker 3: in and I've pissed away that five hundred dollars. Well, 353 00:16:43,760 --> 00:16:45,520 Speaker 3: you can flip the script and if you can find 354 00:16:45,560 --> 00:16:48,440 Speaker 3: a situation where you're betting the other side of the 355 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:52,400 Speaker 3: wager elsewhere at another sports book, and in many of 356 00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 3: these states there's plenty of sports books, plenty of lines, 357 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,760 Speaker 3: you can find those arbitrage opportunities. Well, if you're able 358 00:16:58,760 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 3: to bet minus four one hundred at one book and 359 00:17:01,080 --> 00:17:03,280 Speaker 3: then put your free money on the plus four hundred, 360 00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 3: you can flip it so that you're actually rooting for 361 00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:09,639 Speaker 3: that favorite, that minus four hundred favorite to win for 362 00:17:09,720 --> 00:17:12,399 Speaker 3: you to clear your money out and you don't have 363 00:17:12,440 --> 00:17:14,840 Speaker 3: to kind of feel like you're you're chasing, you know, 364 00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:17,960 Speaker 3: some kind of crazy underdog. And you know, I called 365 00:17:17,960 --> 00:17:20,800 Speaker 3: that flipping the script, and there's been a great response 366 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 3: to that video. 367 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 2: I love it. 368 00:17:22,240 --> 00:17:25,840 Speaker 1: It's awesome, and it's essentially hedging with yourself. It's I 369 00:17:25,880 --> 00:17:28,080 Speaker 1: talk a lot with the guys on the podcast of 370 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: where you know, with future wagers or like what I 371 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 1: did with the World Series. You know, I had the 372 00:17:33,720 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: Rays to win the American League. I had the Dodgers to. 373 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 2: Win the World Series. 374 00:17:37,800 --> 00:17:40,080 Speaker 1: And basically when the Rays got up, I already had 375 00:17:40,080 --> 00:17:41,679 Speaker 1: the Dodgers. I went ahead and bet the Rays, and 376 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,800 Speaker 1: I guaranteed myself. I didn't care who won. I just 377 00:17:43,800 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 1: bet the other side. And I had a plus two 378 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 1: hundred and I had an a plus three thirty. So 379 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:50,280 Speaker 1: to me, I was in the black no matter what. 380 00:17:51,040 --> 00:17:53,640 Speaker 1: And that strategy of going ahead and saying, Okay, I've 381 00:17:53,640 --> 00:17:55,560 Speaker 1: got the free money, why not I go ahead and 382 00:17:55,680 --> 00:17:57,800 Speaker 1: get into a long shot market and if it hits, 383 00:17:57,840 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 1: then look at what I've cleared into or bet the 384 00:18:00,920 --> 00:18:02,920 Speaker 1: other side, because I think people think that five hundred 385 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:05,359 Speaker 1: dollars is real, and it's not real. 386 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:06,080 Speaker 2: It's not. 387 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 1: You don't, actually you don't. Actually it's not anything. It's 388 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:10,719 Speaker 1: just a promotional offer that they're giving you. So you 389 00:18:10,760 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: have to try to maximize it as best as possible 390 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: and read the fine print. Right, how many times are 391 00:18:16,560 --> 00:18:18,239 Speaker 1: you going to turn that over before you actually get 392 00:18:18,280 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 1: to real money? 393 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:19,080 Speaker 2: Right? 394 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,400 Speaker 3: M h Yeah. I mean in a lot of these 395 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:26,879 Speaker 3: New states, the terms are very advantageous. In general. You 396 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:28,159 Speaker 3: just have to if you have a free bet, you 397 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:29,920 Speaker 3: just have to wager at once. Now, if you're betting 398 00:18:29,960 --> 00:18:34,119 Speaker 3: offshore or somewhere like that, they've seen all these tricks before. 399 00:18:33,920 --> 00:18:36,879 Speaker 3: They're not looking to give away the store just yet. 400 00:18:37,280 --> 00:18:40,320 Speaker 3: So they often have a lot of extra conditions where 401 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:42,520 Speaker 3: you need to wager it over fifteen times and you 402 00:18:42,560 --> 00:18:44,600 Speaker 3: can't bet it on more than this, and your average 403 00:18:44,600 --> 00:18:46,960 Speaker 3: bet size has to be that. So you definitely have 404 00:18:47,040 --> 00:18:50,000 Speaker 3: to read the terms and conditions when dealing with any 405 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:50,760 Speaker 3: of these things. 406 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,359 Speaker 1: When do you talk about future markets for you, I 407 00:18:54,359 --> 00:18:57,120 Speaker 1: mean how involved you get with future markets? I mean 408 00:18:57,320 --> 00:18:59,720 Speaker 1: how much you know of your bankroll? Do you like 409 00:18:59,800 --> 00:19:03,520 Speaker 1: to have tied up in future markets, like a baseball 410 00:19:03,560 --> 00:19:05,120 Speaker 1: season that's going to be coming up, or an NBA 411 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:06,960 Speaker 1: season that's going to be coming up. I mean, if 412 00:19:06,960 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 1: you find angles and you find plays that are going 413 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,000 Speaker 1: to be profitable and you have an edge on, do 414 00:19:12,000 --> 00:19:13,760 Speaker 1: you have any issue with having your money tied up 415 00:19:13,760 --> 00:19:14,439 Speaker 1: for six months? 416 00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:18,000 Speaker 3: You know, Matt, I don't bet a lot into futures 417 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:21,199 Speaker 3: markets for a couple different reasons. The first is that 418 00:19:21,280 --> 00:19:23,600 Speaker 3: it does tie your money up, especially if you're playing 419 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 3: in a place where you have to post up the money. 420 00:19:26,200 --> 00:19:29,080 Speaker 3: You're kind of tying that money up for several months. 421 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,240 Speaker 3: But the second reason is is the house edge in 422 00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:37,000 Speaker 3: futures markets is usually greatly inflated. Generally because of the uncertainty. 423 00:19:37,280 --> 00:19:40,320 Speaker 3: A sports book can't deal it with less of a margin. 424 00:19:40,359 --> 00:19:42,320 Speaker 3: They have to kind of inflate the margins to protect 425 00:19:42,359 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 3: against you know, some random occurrence happening, like you know, 426 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:49,480 Speaker 3: the Browns winning the Super Bowl. But as a result, 427 00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:51,879 Speaker 3: they tend to put about twenty to twenty five percent 428 00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:54,480 Speaker 3: Viig baked into that market. In other words, if you 429 00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:58,240 Speaker 3: were to bet every team in the future's chart there, 430 00:19:58,920 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 3: you would have to pay Ndred twenty five dollars to 431 00:20:01,320 --> 00:20:04,639 Speaker 3: win one hundred, even though you're guaranteed to win across 432 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:07,560 Speaker 3: the board. You know, if you're bet perform, sorry if 433 00:20:07,560 --> 00:20:11,199 Speaker 3: you were to bet proportionally across all of those. But 434 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,560 Speaker 3: in general, there are value to be found in futures markets. 435 00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,280 Speaker 3: You just have to know where to look. You know, 436 00:20:18,359 --> 00:20:21,480 Speaker 3: for instance, season win totals you're betting over, you're betting under. 437 00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 3: That's a much thinner market. It's basically going to be 438 00:20:24,960 --> 00:20:27,160 Speaker 3: minus one ten or minus one fifteen on either side 439 00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,320 Speaker 3: of that. You can find value if you want to 440 00:20:29,359 --> 00:20:32,760 Speaker 3: research how a team's going to perform, I would recommend 441 00:20:32,800 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 3: finding those head to head situations rather than kind of 442 00:20:35,480 --> 00:20:38,880 Speaker 3: the long shots. Here's the thing, every better out there 443 00:20:38,920 --> 00:20:41,600 Speaker 3: wants to hit a long shot. You know, there's nothing 444 00:20:41,640 --> 00:20:44,159 Speaker 3: sweeter than at the end of the year when you 445 00:20:44,160 --> 00:20:47,920 Speaker 3: know somebody wins the super Bowl and you go, well, 446 00:20:47,960 --> 00:20:49,879 Speaker 3: look what I got here? How do you like them outs? 447 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,560 Speaker 3: I got the winner? I bet this back in August. 448 00:20:52,880 --> 00:20:56,040 Speaker 3: You know, I am nostradamus, I'm the king of the world. 449 00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:59,119 Speaker 3: There's no better feeling than that. So I understand a 450 00:20:59,160 --> 00:21:02,120 Speaker 3: lot of betters love to bet on those long shot futures, 451 00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:05,160 Speaker 3: do your homework, try to find the best line as possible, 452 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 3: and if you're in one of these emerging markets, definitely 453 00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,280 Speaker 3: line shop. That's that's the key, and you know, good 454 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:11,760 Speaker 3: luck to you. 455 00:21:12,600 --> 00:21:15,160 Speaker 1: One of the things that I had a listener right 456 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: to me a couple of days ago in DM about 457 00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:20,080 Speaker 1: the way that I approach things. And I'm curious as 458 00:21:20,080 --> 00:21:23,160 Speaker 1: to how you feel about the industry, he said, because 459 00:21:23,240 --> 00:21:26,600 Speaker 1: I'm a conservative wager. I don't you know, I'm not 460 00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:29,240 Speaker 1: out here betting too grand a game and I'm not 461 00:21:29,320 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 1: pounding my chest when I get something right. I am 462 00:21:32,320 --> 00:21:37,919 Speaker 1: vehtently against selling picks. I am staunchly against parlaying. I 463 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:39,840 Speaker 1: have some of these principles that I'm trying to tell 464 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:42,000 Speaker 1: people that look, it's about slow and steady. It's about 465 00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: money management, it's about bank roll management. It's you know, 466 00:21:44,640 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 1: if you're a ten buck better, don't feel like you're 467 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:49,640 Speaker 1: a loser. It's absolutely perfectly fine to be that type 468 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:50,160 Speaker 1: of wager. 469 00:21:50,280 --> 00:21:51,480 Speaker 2: And he brought up the. 470 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:56,280 Speaker 1: Machismo, the you know, the overinflated male ego that's in 471 00:21:56,320 --> 00:21:58,879 Speaker 1: this sports gambling market.

You know, there's a lot 480 00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:28,479 Speaker 3: of grind in this.

And 501 00:23:33,600 --> 00:23:36,120 Speaker 3: you know it doesn't it doesn't take a rocket scientist 502 00:23:36,119 --> 00:23:38,200 Speaker 3: to know that you don't have an edge in the lottery. Well, 503 00:23:38,200 --> 00:23:40,879 Speaker 3: you don't have an edge in twelve teen parlays. I'm sorry, 504 00:23:41,080 --> 00:23:44,480 Speaker 3: you just don't. There's no situations where every little leg 505 00:23:44,520 --> 00:23:46,560 Speaker 3: of that twelve team parlay has an advantage where you're 506 00:23:46,600 --> 00:23:50,480 Speaker 3: now compounding that advantage. In converse, actually, what happens is 507 00:23:50,840 --> 00:23:53,680 Speaker 3: every leg of that twelve team parlay has a disadvantage, 508 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:57,160 Speaker 3: and you're compounding that disadvantage to the point where, relative 509 00:23:57,200 --> 00:23:59,320 Speaker 3: to the stakes you're betting, you might be betting into 510 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,240 Speaker 3: like a fifty percent house edge, which that's right in 511 00:24:02,280 --> 00:24:05,920 Speaker 3: line with how the lottery operates. So that's that's right. 512 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:07,879 Speaker 3: Now that you know that that that gets me that 513 00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,760 Speaker 3: I think the industry is pushing us towards this, you know, 514 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:13,880 Speaker 3: spend a buck to win a lot, when in fact, 515 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:17,680 Speaker 3: this is I think the fun of sports betting is 516 00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:20,200 Speaker 3: in the grind, you know. And yeah, maybe it's it's 517 00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 3: not for everyone, but you know, I like looking at 518 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,520 Speaker 3: the entire NFL card and finding little situations here and 519 00:24:26,560 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 3: there that I want to bet into. You know, maybe 520 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:30,400 Speaker 3: I'm just betting on a tight end. You know, maybe 521 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:33,879 Speaker 3: I'm just betting on the fourth quarter performance of a 522 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:37,280 Speaker 3: certain team. These little niches here and there you can 523 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:40,560 Speaker 3: find that and you can kind of build a portfolio 524 00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:43,440 Speaker 3: around that, and you know, it makes that Sunday more 525 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,560 Speaker 3: exciting to watch for these little things to be happening. 526 00:24:46,840 --> 00:24:48,320 Speaker 3: And I think that's a that's a better way to 527 00:24:48,320 --> 00:24:50,440 Speaker 3: approach sports betting for me personally. 528 00:24:50,800 --> 00:24:52,120 Speaker 2: I totally agree with it. 529 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:58,160 Speaker 1: And it's when you see, you know, when people talk 530 00:24:58,160 --> 00:25:01,000 Speaker 1: about free wagery, free picks, when you to give away picks. 531 00:25:01,320 --> 00:25:03,840 Speaker 1: The thing that gets me so often is that the 532 00:25:03,920 --> 00:25:06,920 Speaker 1: people who recommend you know, if they if they work 533 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:09,640 Speaker 1: for a sports book or they have a business relationship 534 00:25:09,640 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 1: with a sports book, and then they're recommending parlaying and 535 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:14,680 Speaker 1: they're giving that away like as they're an expert, and 536 00:25:14,720 --> 00:25:17,919 Speaker 1: then they're giving away here's my three team parlay for 537 00:25:17,960 --> 00:25:21,160 Speaker 1: this week. I just don't understand that, Like, it feels 538 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:26,359 Speaker 1: like counterintuitive. It feels like they're betraying their audience by 539 00:25:26,400 --> 00:25:29,520 Speaker 1: by doing that. Is this just an education standpoint where 540 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:32,000 Speaker 1: we have to get people more educated to what's going 541 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:32,760 Speaker 1: on with parlays? 542 00:25:34,600 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 3: I think so. You know, hey, Loo, parlays are attractive, 543 00:25:37,840 --> 00:25:41,240 Speaker 3: right because you know you can kind of take a 544 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:43,959 Speaker 3: little and turn it into a lot or even beyond that. 545 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,159 Speaker 3: You know, it just seems like you kind of connect 546 00:25:46,200 --> 00:25:48,800 Speaker 3: everything together. And you know, on a Sunday afternoon or 547 00:25:48,800 --> 00:25:51,399 Speaker 3: even a Saturday afternoon with college football, all the games 548 00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,199 Speaker 3: are happening at once, They're all kind of going at 549 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:54,959 Speaker 3: the same time. You know, if you have a parlay, 550 00:25:55,000 --> 00:25:57,000 Speaker 3: it's like, you know, I'm just gonna put this this 551 00:25:57,080 --> 00:26:00,000 Speaker 3: three leg parlay out there, and you know, all these 552 00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:01,679 Speaker 3: three things are happening at the same time, and they 553 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:03,800 Speaker 3: come together and boom at the end of the three hours, 554 00:26:04,119 --> 00:26:08,159 Speaker 3: you have yourself, you know, hopefully a big profit. But 555 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:10,119 Speaker 3: it's a little bit fools gold Matt. You know, it 556 00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:14,439 Speaker 3: definitely is people believe that, you know, if they have 557 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 3: an edge and one, they have an edge in all three, 558 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:19,840 Speaker 3: and that's usually not the case. And you know what 559 00:26:19,880 --> 00:26:22,600 Speaker 3: reinforces a lot is that you have that Sunday where 560 00:26:22,640 --> 00:26:24,800 Speaker 3: you may have picked three winners and you did in parlay, 561 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:27,440 Speaker 3: and you say to yourself, of, if only I would 562 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:31,720 Speaker 3: have had that three team parlay. Yeah, but that doesn't 563 00:26:31,760 --> 00:26:33,919 Speaker 3: change the odds of you winning. You know, coin flip 564 00:26:34,240 --> 00:26:37,760 Speaker 3: flipped three times, there's still a twelve and a half 565 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,040 Speaker 3: percent chance that you're going to be able to guess 566 00:26:40,200 --> 00:26:43,160 Speaker 3: heads or tails correctly all three times. That doesn't mean 567 00:26:43,200 --> 00:26:45,760 Speaker 3: that you're more likely to guess heads or tails correctly 568 00:26:46,040 --> 00:26:49,320 Speaker 3: the next time it's flipped. So you can't let kind 569 00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 3: of past performance kind of dictate how you play going forward. 570 00:26:53,359 --> 00:26:55,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, how do you fight that? 571 00:26:56,520 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 1: Recently, bias is a term that I've been trying to 572 00:26:59,359 --> 00:27:01,840 Speaker 1: figure out more more about and trying to how do 573 00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:03,760 Speaker 1: you fight that? How do you fight well? I went 574 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:05,560 Speaker 1: to in one last time doing this, and why don't 575 00:27:05,600 --> 00:27:07,679 Speaker 1: I do it again? How do you get over that 576 00:27:07,720 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 1: mental hurdle of well it worked once, why couldn't it 577 00:27:10,320 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 1: work again? 578 00:27:11,760 --> 00:27:14,280 Speaker 3: You know, Matt, the best way to fight recency bias 579 00:27:14,520 --> 00:27:18,040 Speaker 3: is to not look at it. You know, if you 580 00:27:18,160 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 3: keep good records, you can just go back over a 581 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,720 Speaker 3: larger sample size of your records and kind of see 582 00:27:23,760 --> 00:27:26,639 Speaker 3: what is actually happening. It's the same reason why if 583 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 3: I go zero and five on a day, I don't 584 00:27:29,560 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 3: immediately think that I have no edge here, or that 585 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 3: I you know, you know that this is the end 586 00:27:34,640 --> 00:27:36,280 Speaker 3: of the world, or that I'm even you know that 587 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:39,640 Speaker 3: I'm due to win in the future. You have to 588 00:27:39,680 --> 00:27:42,119 Speaker 3: just look at everything on a large scale, and then 589 00:27:42,160 --> 00:27:44,639 Speaker 3: at the same time you have to look at nothing 590 00:27:44,720 --> 00:27:46,399 Speaker 3: on a large scale. So when I say you have 591 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 3: to look at everything, you have to realize that you know, 592 00:27:48,119 --> 00:27:50,800 Speaker 3: this is a long grind. You have all these sample 593 00:27:50,840 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 3: size of data points over time. But at the same time, 594 00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:57,800 Speaker 3: you can't start each day thinking about what happened yesterday. 595 00:27:58,040 --> 00:28:00,240 Speaker 3: You know, if I was down one thousand dollars yesterday, 596 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:01,919 Speaker 3: I don't have to think I got to get that 597 00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:05,200 Speaker 3: thousand dollars back. You just start off fresh every day. 598 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,040 Speaker 3: You start off as if you know you would. You 599 00:28:07,080 --> 00:28:09,840 Speaker 3: didn't gamble at all yesterday, saying if you win a 600 00:28:09,880 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 3: thousand dollars yesterday, you don't start off thinking, I got 601 00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:14,360 Speaker 3: a thousand dollars of a house money in my pocket. 602 00:28:14,960 --> 00:28:18,040 Speaker 3: I'm going to increase my unit size today and try 603 00:28:18,080 --> 00:28:21,679 Speaker 3: to parlay that thousand up higher. It's it's why I 604 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,879 Speaker 3: say you have to think about the entire big picture, 605 00:28:23,920 --> 00:28:26,199 Speaker 3: but you also have to think about just what's the 606 00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 3: next step in front of you going forward. 607 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:32,240 Speaker 1: I'm a big proponent of flat wagering, and I think 608 00:28:32,280 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 1: it's a way of it keeps me out of trouble. 609 00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 1: So basically, I know that I'm gonna lose, And some 610 00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 1: of the guys say, you're one of the first people 611 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 1: that says you're I'm gonna lose because I do it 612 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 1: all the time. I'm gonna have a bad week, I'm 613 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,200 Speaker 1: gonna have a bad day. I'm gonna have good days, 614 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,040 Speaker 1: and I hope to have good months, but I'm gonna 615 00:28:47,040 --> 00:28:49,760 Speaker 1: have stretches where you know, I'm not seeing the board 616 00:28:49,840 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: right or you know I'm not getting the bounces that 617 00:28:52,320 --> 00:28:55,040 Speaker 1: I want. So I flat wager to protect myself in 618 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:58,040 Speaker 1: my bank roll from those those bad moments. 619 00:28:59,080 --> 00:29:01,320 Speaker 2: How do you do? Do you believe in flat. 620 00:29:01,040 --> 00:29:04,480 Speaker 1: Wagering and when the public sees these big bets being 621 00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:08,760 Speaker 1: reported like crazy. You know, did you think it's counteractive 622 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:10,680 Speaker 1: or kind of you know, is not a problem when 623 00:29:10,720 --> 00:29:13,000 Speaker 1: people start thinking, well that guy bet ten thousand, why 624 00:29:13,000 --> 00:29:15,320 Speaker 1: can I chase? And I normally bet ten bucks, Now 625 00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:16,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna bet one hundred. 626 00:29:17,560 --> 00:29:20,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, So you know, look, there's there's two schools of 627 00:29:20,440 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 3: thought when it comes to wagering. Either's the flat staking 628 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:25,320 Speaker 3: that you just talked about, and then there's also the 629 00:29:26,120 --> 00:29:28,560 Speaker 3: bet proportional to the size of your bankroll and to 630 00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 3: the edge that you're betting into. Now, for a recreational better, 631 00:29:31,840 --> 00:29:35,400 Speaker 3: they don't know how to exactly quantify their edge. Hey, 632 00:29:35,440 --> 00:29:37,440 Speaker 3: for a professional better, you don't always know how to 633 00:29:37,520 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 3: quantify your edge either. So I understand that that doing 634 00:29:41,560 --> 00:29:44,800 Speaker 3: that bet sizing, that Kelly bet sizing is what it's 635 00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 3: called after John Kelly's formula, which basically means you bet 636 00:29:49,400 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 3: your edge, and that's tough for a lot of people. So, hey, 637 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 3: flat staking is a good way to go and maybe 638 00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 3: reevaluate your flat steak at the end of the season 639 00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 3: or the beginning of next season. You know, that's a 640 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:03,440 Speaker 3: solid way to go. But too many people decide, you know, 641 00:30:03,480 --> 00:30:06,680 Speaker 3: they need to chase for whatever reason, or they need 642 00:30:06,720 --> 00:30:08,720 Speaker 3: to they think, you know, just because they're running hot, 643 00:30:08,760 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 3: they can increase their stake by by twice as much. 644 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:15,080 Speaker 3: When you do that, when you increase your stakes for 645 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:19,120 Speaker 3: whatever reason, you're skewing your results so that the results 646 00:30:19,320 --> 00:30:21,760 Speaker 3: in your larger steak are going to have a much 647 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 3: heavier weight on your overall result than the the stakes 648 00:30:26,720 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 3: that you made back when you were just flat staking. 649 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,400 Speaker 3: And that's that's key, because you know, there's nothing worse 650 00:30:33,440 --> 00:30:35,000 Speaker 3: than if you were to be lucky enough to be 651 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 3: going sixty percent over this NFL season and this week 652 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:40,760 Speaker 3: you say, okay, time to time to put it into 653 00:30:40,840 --> 00:30:43,480 Speaker 3: high gear here, I'm going to instead of betting twenty 654 00:30:43,480 --> 00:30:45,840 Speaker 3: I'm going to bet one hundred dollars a game. Well, 655 00:30:46,280 --> 00:30:50,000 Speaker 3: you are now basically all contingent on what your results 656 00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:53,239 Speaker 3: are going to be from this point forward, and that 657 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,000 Speaker 3: could very well mean that at the end of the year, 658 00:30:55,080 --> 00:30:57,600 Speaker 3: you might have hit fifty four percent over the year, 659 00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:00,280 Speaker 3: which is great, and you might be a loser because 660 00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:03,200 Speaker 3: you dipped back down over this last few weeks of 661 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:06,959 Speaker 3: the season and ended up with a negative result, and 662 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,400 Speaker 3: that that really sucks. You know, that's that's just the 663 00:31:09,440 --> 00:31:10,400 Speaker 3: worst position to be in. 664 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:12,120 Speaker 2: Totally agree with that. 665 00:31:12,680 --> 00:31:15,160 Speaker 1: I'm curious because this might be a little bit inside school, 666 00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:16,800 Speaker 1: but I cause I've got you here. I want to 667 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 1: I love I want to hear your thoughts on this. 668 00:31:19,480 --> 00:31:22,960 Speaker 1: But how much of a responsibility do us in the media, 669 00:31:23,320 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 1: How much do we how much blame should we get, 670 00:31:27,320 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 1: or how much of a responsibility do we have to 671 00:31:30,040 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 1: investigate when the sports books are giving us information that 672 00:31:33,280 --> 00:31:37,000 Speaker 1: that information is accurate. I get emails every day. Every morning, 673 00:31:37,080 --> 00:31:39,280 Speaker 1: I start with about five companies that I know in 674 00:31:39,320 --> 00:31:41,440 Speaker 1: my inbox. Before my radio show, I'm going to have 675 00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,640 Speaker 1: their numbers and what they've got, what they're telling me 676 00:31:44,800 --> 00:31:47,560 Speaker 1: that they've got from a number perspective or from a 677 00:31:48,160 --> 00:31:52,560 Speaker 1: liability perspective. In the media, should we be reporting that stuff? 678 00:31:52,600 --> 00:31:55,960 Speaker 1: Should we report the big wagers? I mean, what should 679 00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,560 Speaker 1: the future of sports gambling media look like. 680 00:31:59,840 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 3: I don't have a problem with the media reporting the numbers. 681 00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:06,120 Speaker 3: I have a problem with people reading too much into them. 682 00:32:06,560 --> 00:32:09,200 Speaker 3: You know, if you're told that ninety percent of the 683 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 3: action and sixty percent of the tickets are on this 684 00:32:13,400 --> 00:32:18,520 Speaker 3: team at William Hill, people read into that too much 685 00:32:18,560 --> 00:32:21,440 Speaker 3: and they go, Okay, ninety percent of the money but 686 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:24,440 Speaker 3: only sixty percent of the tickets. That means that the 687 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,320 Speaker 3: higher wager tickets are on this and therefore the higher 688 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:30,000 Speaker 3: wager tickets are the sharp betters, and therefore I must 689 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 3: eat and they read these tea leaves and it's it's 690 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:37,440 Speaker 3: just not true because first of all, we don't know 691 00:32:37,520 --> 00:32:39,640 Speaker 3: what and I'm using William Hills just an example here. 692 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 3: I'm not calling them out on or anything. We don't 693 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 3: know what William Hill's number was on that game. Maybe 694 00:32:44,440 --> 00:32:46,280 Speaker 3: william Hill had the best number on the board, maybe 695 00:32:46,320 --> 00:32:48,320 Speaker 3: they had the worst number on the board. But when 696 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:50,000 Speaker 3: they have the best number, maybe they're going to attract 697 00:32:50,040 --> 00:32:52,040 Speaker 3: the sharp money. But when they have the worst number, 698 00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:54,040 Speaker 3: they're going to attract the square money. And we don't 699 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:57,120 Speaker 3: know that. And so as a result, you're reading tea 700 00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:02,160 Speaker 3: leaves with incorrect information or incomplete information. And I think 701 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:04,959 Speaker 3: that the recreational better needs to realize that is that 702 00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:06,880 Speaker 3: these numbers don't really mean a whole lot, and the 703 00:33:06,920 --> 00:33:09,120 Speaker 3: sample size could be very low. There might only be 704 00:33:09,200 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 3: ten bets on this game at william Hill, you know. 705 00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 3: And that's especially true on some of these other sports 706 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:19,840 Speaker 3: books that you know, might not have as large a 707 00:33:19,880 --> 00:33:23,160 Speaker 3: diverse action pool to draw from. You know, if you're 708 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:26,280 Speaker 3: a sports book, you're only live in Colorado, well you're 709 00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:29,720 Speaker 3: probably going to take a large portion of Colorado centric 710 00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:33,320 Speaker 3: action as opposed to someone who's in every state. So 711 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,280 Speaker 3: you know, there's definitely in complete information, and I think 712 00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:40,080 Speaker 3: the recreational betters need to realize that, you know, this 713 00:33:40,120 --> 00:33:42,680 Speaker 3: isn't the whole picture. Don't read into it. 714 00:33:42,960 --> 00:33:45,040 Speaker 1: And that's why I freak out when I hear people 715 00:33:45,040 --> 00:33:46,680 Speaker 1: in the media and these are my friends who are 716 00:33:46,680 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 1: on my show, and I tell them this to them. 717 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:49,840 Speaker 1: You know that they know how I feel about this. 718 00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:54,760 Speaker 1: But the whole reverse line movement trend like using terms 719 00:33:55,160 --> 00:33:58,960 Speaker 1: that makes you seem smart that oh I know something, 720 00:33:59,000 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 1: so this is a reverse line line movement game. It 721 00:34:01,480 --> 00:34:03,720 Speaker 1: drives me nuts because, like you just mentioned, it's a 722 00:34:03,720 --> 00:34:06,680 Speaker 1: snapshot in that exact moment, you could have had twenty 723 00:34:06,720 --> 00:34:09,440 Speaker 1: bets come in before you actually went on the air, 724 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: and you don't know that information. You know, if you're 725 00:34:12,120 --> 00:34:15,040 Speaker 1: not in the risk room, you don't know what's going on, right, 726 00:34:15,080 --> 00:34:17,879 Speaker 1: so that all the information is all post dated, it's 727 00:34:17,920 --> 00:34:19,960 Speaker 1: all added out to date by the time we talk 728 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:20,360 Speaker 1: about it. 729 00:34:20,440 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 3: Right, reverse line movement is the cringiest term that I 730 00:34:25,480 --> 00:34:30,040 Speaker 3: know of when it comes to sharp sports betters, if 731 00:34:30,080 --> 00:34:33,200 Speaker 3: you use reverse line movement around me, your your kind 732 00:34:33,239 --> 00:34:35,200 Speaker 3: of your stock drops a little because I realized you're 733 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:38,680 Speaker 3: you're looking into things that just aren't indicative of anything. 734 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:42,400 Speaker 3: And a lot of people lean heavily on reverse line 735 00:34:42,440 --> 00:34:45,920 Speaker 3: movement and I just don't understand why, because again, it's 736 00:34:45,920 --> 00:34:50,359 Speaker 3: an incomplete picture. Yeah, there may be situations where, yes, 737 00:34:50,400 --> 00:34:53,680 Speaker 3: reverse line movement does indicate sharp action, but there are 738 00:34:53,719 --> 00:34:56,839 Speaker 3: plenty more where it doesn't. And in fact, as you 739 00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,440 Speaker 3: get very close to game time, I guarantee you reverse 740 00:34:59,480 --> 00:35:03,239 Speaker 3: line movement is almost one hundred percent contradictory to where 741 00:35:03,280 --> 00:35:06,439 Speaker 3: the sharps are because there's a lot of money being 742 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:09,239 Speaker 3: kind of played back into a situation that's not the 743 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:12,879 Speaker 3: sharp side for you know, various hedge reasons and things 744 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:17,160 Speaker 3: like that. So yeah, be careful when anyone starts talking 745 00:35:17,239 --> 00:35:21,279 Speaker 3: reverse line movement as they're kind of their theory that 746 00:35:21,360 --> 00:35:23,200 Speaker 3: might not be a solid, solid basis. 747 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,879 Speaker 2: Yeah, I completely agree. It makes me flip out. 748 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:29,040 Speaker 1: And you know, when it comes to fading the public 749 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:32,279 Speaker 1: or riding with you know, a team that doesn't have 750 00:35:32,440 --> 00:35:34,200 Speaker 1: a lot of a lot of action, on it. I 751 00:35:34,239 --> 00:35:35,839 Speaker 1: often tell people that, look, you have to look at 752 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 1: your own game, you break it down, you believe in 753 00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:40,279 Speaker 1: your own process, and then bet what you think and 754 00:35:40,719 --> 00:35:43,400 Speaker 1: sometimes you ride with the public, sometimes you ride with 755 00:35:43,440 --> 00:35:46,200 Speaker 1: the pros. But ultimately you got to believe in yourself 756 00:35:46,200 --> 00:35:48,480 Speaker 1: as to what you think, what your money, and take 757 00:35:48,520 --> 00:35:51,240 Speaker 1: personal responsibility, and don't get mad at me or somebody 758 00:35:51,239 --> 00:35:53,000 Speaker 1: else who told you to bet a certain way if 759 00:35:53,040 --> 00:35:54,640 Speaker 1: you didn't go through the whole process that I went 760 00:35:54,680 --> 00:35:56,960 Speaker 1: through to get to that same place and I said, hey, 761 00:35:57,000 --> 00:35:59,319 Speaker 1: bet minus three and a half and it lands at three, 762 00:35:59,760 --> 00:36:02,799 Speaker 1: so I'm wrong, and so you're all angry. How much 763 00:36:02,840 --> 00:36:04,839 Speaker 1: do you look at, you know people when it comes 764 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:07,799 Speaker 1: to gambling and say, okay, the process that you would 765 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:10,920 Speaker 1: recommend people doing their own process versus listening to what 766 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:12,960 Speaker 1: you hear in the media. 767 00:36:13,160 --> 00:36:16,040 Speaker 3: You will learn so much more if you try to 768 00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:18,799 Speaker 3: do this yourself, then if you just try to be 769 00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:23,399 Speaker 3: spoon fed everything you know. Look, Matt, you and I 770 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:25,400 Speaker 3: we both talk about how you shouldn't pay for picks, 771 00:36:25,400 --> 00:36:28,200 Speaker 3: and let's just assume that your audience knows this now, 772 00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:30,480 Speaker 3: that they shouldn't pay for pa They know this now, yes, 773 00:36:31,480 --> 00:36:34,560 Speaker 3: But beyond that, a lot of people just seem to 774 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:37,239 Speaker 3: want to pick up on whatever they hear as their 775 00:36:37,360 --> 00:36:40,760 Speaker 3: narrative for how the game is going to go. I really, 776 00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:42,680 Speaker 3: you will learn so much more if you just try 777 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:45,680 Speaker 3: to think for yourself, because you know what, when you're wrong, 778 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:48,840 Speaker 3: you're gonna you're gonna put that right on square on 779 00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 3: your back and you're gonna say, oh, you know, I 780 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:53,839 Speaker 3: learned from this. One of the things that I think 781 00:36:53,880 --> 00:36:57,160 Speaker 3: has helped me the most about being a professional gambler 782 00:36:57,239 --> 00:37:00,200 Speaker 3: is I've been wrong a lot of times, and I've 783 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 3: learned from being wrong that I can't do that again, 784 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:06,160 Speaker 3: and as a result, then I tend to make better 785 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:10,400 Speaker 3: choices the next time around. If you're quietly just just 786 00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:14,120 Speaker 3: following somebody and whatever they say, you bet, when they're wrong, 787 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 3: you point to them and you go, you were wrong. 788 00:37:16,360 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 3: You know I wasn't wrong. I followed you bet, Yeah 789 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:21,319 Speaker 3: that was dumb, but you were wrong. You can't think 790 00:37:21,400 --> 00:37:23,160 Speaker 3: like that because you don't know why you were wrong. 791 00:37:23,840 --> 00:37:27,719 Speaker 3: So it's really important when you're kind of starting out 792 00:37:27,719 --> 00:37:29,920 Speaker 3: in this or making your way with this, just do 793 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,239 Speaker 3: your own work. You know you'll learn so much more. 794 00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:34,799 Speaker 3: It'll speed the plow forward for you to where you 795 00:37:34,840 --> 00:37:37,680 Speaker 3: can become a winning better, or a break even better, 796 00:37:37,760 --> 00:37:40,400 Speaker 3: or a better that you know feels more comfortable about 797 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:43,439 Speaker 3: their action at the end of the season. I really 798 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:47,279 Speaker 3: can't stress that enough. It's just so important to learn 799 00:37:47,320 --> 00:37:50,880 Speaker 3: from your mistakes and take ownership of your process. 800 00:37:51,320 --> 00:37:53,759 Speaker 1: He is Captain Jack Andrews. If folks want to get 801 00:37:53,800 --> 00:37:56,600 Speaker 1: more information, find the videos, find your Twitter account.

You know, 810 00:38:15,400 --> 00:38:18,000 Speaker 3: as I've progressed along, the quality of the video has 811 00:38:18,000 --> 00:38:20,960 Speaker 3: gotten better, the production values have gone up. So keep 812 00:38:21,000 --> 00:38:23,400 Speaker 3: that in mind.
