his dog? It's like this big. He could have thrown
it at the vet.
Speaker 2: I have not, but listen, anytime you got to take
a dog to the vet, that's way more important.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Andrew McGinnis lost his dog a few days ago.
Horrible had a heart attack four years old. It's just
been absolutely gutted over it. Anyway, we got lots of
sports betting coming arway. Hit the like button, subscribe to
our channel. I've got a massive five percent play up
for you guys.
Speaker 3: I have a.
Speaker 1: Coupon coming your way. We'll talk about it in the second.
In a second, let's start with an update. How did
the books do a last night?
Speaker 3: It was a good night for both NBA and college basketball.
Speaker 2: It's nice to have NBA back, nice to have a
fuller betting content menu.
Speaker 3: So it's always good and you can have more for
the people to bet.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and our NBA is an full swing. We got
a whole bunch of games going. I'm gonna do the
NBA rundown later today. I'll give you bets on every
single one of those games, art the gold medal match
between Canada and the USA. Yesterday I got on this show.
I told everybody plus two and a half of Canada.
I begged you guys to bet, and I said, there's
no way. I got so much slack on the comment section.
Pres you don't know what you're talking about. It's gonna
be six to one. They shouldn't even be on the
same ice together. It's like pros versus amateurs, skinny versus fat.
It just, you know, horrible versus amazing. I mean, I
just got lamd baseded And of course I was right.
Canada plays two and a half in retrospect. That's a
horrible line.
Speaker 2: I totally agree, and honestly, Canada should have won. Yeah,
I mean they should have won the hockey game. I mean,
I don't think there's any question about it.
Speaker 3: Li Surpress.
Speaker 2: I know we always get ross over saying we agree
with each other's picks, but I was with you on that.
I thought that that would be a lot closer game.
The line made no sense. I mean, basically, for that
line to triple from the first time they played each
other was a little It was an overreaction, which sometimes
can happen with these lines. You know, these lines can
be very much inflated sometimes.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, let's see what's going on today. We've got
a couple of We got two important semi final games
in hockey right now as we tape at zero zero
in the first period in the Canada Finland game. USA
are up next, they're playing Slovenia. What kind of action
are you taking on these games?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, anyone who's going to be betting USA
today is just going to be putting them in a
money line parlay. Obviously when you're talking anywhere from you know,
minus nine dollars to minus ten dollars on that.
Speaker 3: But you have seen a little what you liked the other.
Speaker 2: Side plus two and a half at some plus money,
So there's been a little bit of nibble on that.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's still plus money, but we have seen
that line come down a little bit. It was plus
one twenty yesterday. Now it is plus one fourteen, so
and and again, you know, I mean, look at Finland
playing Canada really well, out shooting Canada seven to four,
out chance in Canada, really dominating the play. And you know,
Slovakia is not a bad team as another good bet.
Guys take Slovakia plus two and a half. We'll talk
about it a little later. Okay, So we got college
basketball tonight and NBA, let's go through some line, some
line moves where the money is going. And of course
we'll get to some UFC a little later.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, NBA, we took under money in the Hornet game
under two thirty three, now two thirty one. They laid
two and a half with the Heat it's now three
and a half. And then about half an hour ago
they laid six with the Lakers. We're we moved to seven.
There are some seven and a half's out there, so
really steam on the Lakers. When you get to college basketball,
not a big slate. It's really I don't know what
fifteen games something like that.
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 2: They laid seven with Saint Louis, laid three and a
half with Merrimack, took six and a half with Wisconsin,
Green Bay Tookkenisius on a pick took iona plus one
and took the under one thirty two in the Brown
Princeton game.
Speaker 1: Yeah, under one thirty two. Uh, Brown versus Princeton. That
feels like a game that might not get over one hundred.
Speaker 3: I'm with you.
Speaker 2: They both played to the under two. They both play
that type of pace, so that probably will go down
even further.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm with you on that. The Lakers Clippers so
obviously a sexy game. You're taking money on the Lakers.
Sixty one percent of the money of the tickets written
so are are on the Lakers today. But the Clippers
are playing a little bit better. I mean they've won
or I they won their last two. They just beat Denver.
What are you seeing in this Laker game? Just just
money being bet on the Lakers. Do you have any
particular opinion on this game? Now?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like I said, pressure, no, the sharp slate at
six and we only went to se We didn't go
to the seven and a half because we said, you know,
we'll move it a point to someone else.
Speaker 3: Want to lay it at seven? They have not.
Speaker 2: I felt if we went to seven and a half,
we'd probably get that fight back on the Clippers.
Speaker 3: Haven't done that yet.
Speaker 2: But you know, listen, that's one of the last games
of the NBA slates, so it still could happen. Obviously,
the Lakers are going to be very popular in all
the moneyline parlays, as they always are. I'm with you,
I don't know if I'd want to lay a big
number with the Lakers. The Clippers have been playing a
lot better.
Speaker 1: I just want to talk about OKAC right now, real quick,
because we have a minus eighteen on tap in this
OKC game. Look, last time we had a big number
like this was a couple of weeks ago. It was
an Orlando game. I think it was again minus I
think Orlando or somebody was plus a million and they
lost by thirty. So here, Oklahoma SURTI coming off of
a loss. It's not like they haven't lost two in
a row. They just recently lost two in a row
to San Antonio and Houston. Hard to think they're going
to lose to Brooklyn tonight. But man, I mean Brooklyn
can cover this number. They have lost two in a row.
But this Brooklyn team is not that bad. What would
you do in a game like this?
Speaker 2: You know, it's funny when it came in this morning,
bright and early. He was sixteen and a half and I,
like you said.
Speaker 3: We're all the way to eighteen. So you've even seen
a little bit of money.
Speaker 2: Not that it was sharp money because sharps aren't coming
in lane sixteen and a half or seventeen. You've just
really seen the market move that way. The only thing
that happens in this type of game is you'll see
ten twenty thirty dollars bets on the nets money line.
Like you'll see some people just take a chance because
you know, you get like ten or eleven one. Obviously,
no one's gonna really come in who we respect and
lay a number that big.
Speaker 1: Finland just scored one nothing for Finland. So is there
now gonna be a rush for in game betting on
Team Canada at the West Gate?
Speaker 3: Yeah, just like it was for the US women yesterday.
Speaker 2: You know, at some point, you know a team that
was laying what minus five hundred, minus five fifty, you
were getting them at plus money. So you see that
when that happens, when the you know, team who's heavily favored,
they get that early. Now you get a cheap price
on that team.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and look, Finland is playing outstanding hockey. Okay, see
minus eighteen. I don't know, man, I think you gotta
you gotta look at Brooklyn here. Maybe first half. Bet
I'll get out my thoughts a little later in the show.
At UFC art, what's going on with that sport? Hey?
What TV card? I guess all cards now are TV cards.
Speaker 2: Yeah, this isn't one of the big ones where it
has one of those numbers. This is called like a
UFC fight night. And as as always said, I'm not
the huge UFC guy, but you know I've tried to
you know, I know people are always asking for it,
So let's try to give some UFC information out there.
This is all sharp action. Anytime I give out the
UFC stuff will always be sharp bets that we took
and we want a book to We took money on
Spivak at plus one forty. We took money on Osbourne
at plus one forty and plus one twenty five. Those
are two separate sharp accounts. So that we took money
on Sorein at plus one ten is now minus one
twenty So those are the three sharp bets on the
UFC fight night.
Speaker 1: What's boxing do for you guys these days? Is it
just this both what's disappearing fast?
Speaker 2: It is now when you have like what was that
one we just had Crawford and Canelo. Yeah, that moved
the needle. I mean obviously it's in town. You could
put up a ton of props for it. So you
do see that moved the needle. But honestly, other than
a fight of that magnitude, it really does not doesn't
do much for us. The limits are low, not a
lot of people know where to find it, where to
watch it when it's on. It just it's really not
a sport that generates a lot of handle, not like
the UFC. The UFC generates a ton of handle.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's for sure. So much has changed art the season.
You're joining us, everybody from the Westgate Art, We're going
to get back to you. I just want to promote
my five percent play right now, real quick, guys. These
are very rare plays for me, very rare. I've had
two NBA five percent plays all season two. I'm one
and one. This is my third. About ninety percent of
my plays are two and three percent plays, so when
I released it, four percent play, These are really really
strong bets to give you perspective. I'm on a five
and one run in these plays over the last six
twenty and eight run over the last twenty eight I'm
sixty seven percent since the beginning of last NBA season.
This is a very rare play. It's a five percent
NBA play super strong. You guys can get fifteen dollars
off of that play. Use the coupon code PRES fifteen
that is pr e Z one five. You get fifteen
dollars off of that play. Okay, So let's get to
our parlay of the day. We cash the first two
legs yesterday art mine is Slovenia plus Slovakia plus two
and a half that wins, and we cover that today.
I'm gonna give out an NBA play here and I'm
gonna just you know, standard procedure bet against Utah. We're
gonna Memphis plus one. They're at home tonight ten and fifteen,
at home twenty and thirty three. All together. This Memphis
team stinks, but it feels like they might actually try
as opposed to the other team Utah. So Memphis for
me plus the one.
Speaker 3: What do you like?
Speaker 2: Oh, you mean the other team who will be winning
and then take their whole team out in the fourth court.
Yeah exactly, Yes, Yeah, that's pretty good.
Speaker 3: I like that. I'm gonna go college basketball.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna take Detroit at home moneyline minus one thirty
against Wisconsin Milwaukee.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there you go. Art, stay with us, because I
can't stop the show or go to a single screen.
I have no ability to do any of that. Joe
Ranieri at the vet with his beautiful dog today but
still recording the show. I'm gonna run down the NBA
board at one hundred miles an hour after I'm done.
If anything stands out to you, let me know. We're
gonna start with Memphis against Utah. I like memphishire plus one.
One of my favorite bets. Cleveland on the road playing Charlotte.
Charlotte twelve and fifteen at home. They're plus six and
a half. I don't care. I think this Cleveland team
is going on a run. Not that they haven't been
on a run all year, but this Cleveland team, to me,
is a really good team. Plus six and a half
feels a little short. I would take the favorite on
the road, Indiana playing Washington. I like the over in
this game two p thirty. I like Miammy against Atlanta,
Minnesota and Dallas. I like the over here too, Art,
I know two foraty big big number, I get it.
I like the New Orleans. The New Orleans team minus four.
You're going to look at Brooklyn plus the eighteen. I
just can't get my head around taking minus eighteen or Oka. See.
I like Denver on the money line. They're on the
road play Portland, and I would take a flyer on
the Clippers here at plus seven and a half. That's
the NBA rundown. Anything stand out to you as right
or wrong? You disagree, you don't agree that type of thing.
Speaker 2: I think the one that stood out to me is
the Bucks are such a mess in the Pelicans. That's
a that's a telling line, you know. I understand New
Orleans is at home with them being a four point favorite.
The Bucks are a mess. I think that is kind
of the one I would lean to the most of
the NBA. I agree with you on the Clippers. You
mentioned the Heat. We already took sharp money on the
Heat at two and a half. That's now three and
a half, even trending higher on that game. So yeah,
And I think too, when you see those high totals
two thirty eight and a half two thirty nine and
a half to forty and a half.
Speaker 3: Those games usually see the flyover.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'll tell you. Speaking of New Orleans, you know,
I mean, this team is nine and twenty at home
and they're favored. So should we be looking to bet
against Milwaukee moving forward? Almost blindly? At this point?
Speaker 2: It feels that way to me. I mean when I
saw that line this morning, I was shocked by it.
I'm thinking about yet they've won, Yeah, I know, they've.
Speaker 1: Won two in a row. They won five of their
last six, and two in a row on the road.
Now obviously that was a while back, but they entered
the break on a high. And yet you're right, let's
talk about that. And I know you got a run, Art,
but let's talk about that for a second. Because Milwaukee
is a sexy team. They've got a superstar on their team.
They you know, in recent memory, won the championship, They've
won two of their last two deep stuff, five of
their last six, and they're playing a New Orleans team
that just barely wins games. How does this line get
set When you guys come into your room and you
sit there, I mean, surely you're thinking the general public's
gonna get bet Milwaukee. How was this line set? Why
is New Orleans favored? What is the mindset that goes
into something like this.
Speaker 3: Well, you also gotta remember the mindset of New Orleans.
Speaker 2: They don't have their first round pick, so they can't
tank even if they wanted to. So I mean, they're
gonna play their young guys, are gonna play a kid
they drafted for Maryland queen. You know, Zions had to
bounce back year, so they don't really have anything to
do butt play hard. So yeah, I mean, obviously a
line like that, home team's mostly gonna be favored. You know,
you probably start two two and a half and then
you just start moving up on that and you know,
even as the line climbs and climbs, if we were
to take sharp money back on Milwaukee, of course we
would go back and try to book that way. But
nobody seems to even want to bet Milwaukee, So it
tells you that your line is right.
Speaker 1: So so no, So when Milwaukee played OKC and beat
them in Orlando and beat them, I mean again, you know,
thirteen and a half and eleven dogs, you were just
take you were not taking any money on Milwaukee even
back a few weeks ago. So that's really what I mean.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, it's some teams, and I don't want to
say Milwaukee's the team the Sharps will ever bet. But
there are some teams where you could pinpoint throughout all
sports where regardless of what the line is, they don't
bet it. I mean, yeah, obviously you could, you know,
get weird and if everyone's four, you go to five. Yeah,
you'll take money, but you know, for the most part,
there are just some teams they stay away from.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Uh, Art real quick mailbag section of the show.
I just wanted to talk one thing. You came on
the show. I think it was on Tuesday. You gave
out George Mason. I said, I love George Mason as well.
There and then for the next two days we had
a million people land based us for giving out George Mason.
I don't think people understand how this works. Uh. We
come on this show and we give you our thoughts,
like my I have a five percent play up tonight.
I didn't give that out. That's the play I'm betting.
I am only making one single bet in basketball tonight.
One I am passing in college basketball. One NBA bet.
That's all I made. So if you guys want to
land based art night or saying New Orleans over Milwaukee,
go ahead. I'm not betting it. Are you betting at art?
Speaker 3: I am not.
Speaker 1: Guys. We honestly try to maybe make one bet per
sport a day. We're nobody here are high volume betters.
It's hard enough to find a winner when we come
out and we give out our picks. These aren't our bets.
These are out thoughts, thoughts on a particular game. If
you're gonna land based us on that, my god, I
don't know where to go from there.
Speaker 2: I'd like to see I'd like to see a little
bit of praise on the other side when we get
it right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well that come on?
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, I know. I'm just I'm just saying,
have that same energy. Come on.
Speaker 1: Like I've been doing this since nineteen ninety nine, I've
never received a tip in my life, not one thing.
You'll tip a blackjack dealer who you have a relationship
with for five minutes, he gets your tips. You'll tip
or blackjack dealer, but you won't scream and yell at
the blackjack dealer or deal in an ace on a
ten now for himself, but you'll yell at us for
thinking about George Mason. Anyway. Yep, let's let's call it aday. Guys.
