Speaker 2: Hit that subscribe button.

36
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:45,400
Speaker 1: Let's do it, Andy, Let's do let's let's do all

37
00:01:45,439 --> 00:01:46,719

38
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,560
Speaker 2: Let's love this free plays a minute in Andy, I'm in.

39
00:01:51,200 --> 00:01:52,959
Speaker 4: Let's do it. Magic and the Hawks.

40
00:01:52,959 --> 00:01:55,200
Speaker 1: We're gonna go with Tristan de Silva over seventeen and

41
00:01:55,239 --> 00:01:58,680
a half points plus his rebounds. This is a category

42
00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:00,799
I've been following for a little bit with him with

43
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:03,000
black out of the lineup. He's gone over in three

44
00:02:03,040 --> 00:02:05,640
straight five out of the last six he's gone over.

45
00:02:05,799 --> 00:02:09,159
He's getting thirteen rebound chances, and he's making six field

46
00:02:09,199 --> 00:02:10,000
goals in the.

47
00:02:10,080 --> 00:02:10,759
Speaker 4: Last three games.

48
00:02:10,759 --> 00:02:13,120
Speaker 1: So we like this one Red Wings in the Flames

49
00:02:13,159 --> 00:02:15,080
Alex to break it under three and a half shots

50
00:02:15,120 --> 00:02:17,520
on goal, this is one shot too many. He's gone

51
00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:19,800
under in twelve straight. He's only getting five to six

52
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:22,280
shots per game. And I told you I have an

53
00:02:22,319 --> 00:02:25,280
insane stat. Luka Danciz, We're gonna take him over three

54
00:02:25,319 --> 00:02:29,199
and a half made threes. He's gone over in five straight.

55
00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,479
I have never seen this kind of volume Dan. In

56
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:37,599
the last five games, he is averaging fourteen three point attempts,

57
00:02:37,759 --> 00:02:39,879
not field goals.

58
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:45,479
Speaker 3: Let him fly fourteen three point attempts like, LUKEA, my.

59
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:50,039
Speaker 1: God, pass the ball, sun but you're kidding that tonight volume,

60
00:02:50,120 --> 00:02:50,759
but not tonight.

61
00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:53,039
Speaker 3: Don't pass the ball tonight. Just let him rip again.

62
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:55,199
Go over the three and a half. That's crazy though.

63
00:02:55,319 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 1: Fourteen I told you I was like I had I

64
00:02:58,400 --> 00:02:59,439
kept having to look at it.

65
00:02:59,479 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 4: I was like, is this right? Am I looking at

66
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:04,840
the wrong thing? So yeah, that's that's that's his average.

67
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:09,159
Speaker 1: So that's gonna be uh today's WTFLFG WTF is right,

68
00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:14,960
Like fourteen. That's insane, truly insane. We do have a

69
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:16,560
little cross play that is up. This is gonna be

70
00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,960
play number two for our let It Ride challenge. A

71
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:24,599
couple of you are now what three? No, I know

72
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:25,639
some of you let it ride.

73
00:03:25,719 --> 00:03:26,960
Speaker 2: This is my this is my like.

74
00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:31,879
Speaker 3: Number four because well, because Colin Morikawa gate happened, so

75
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:33,919
we didn't want to you know, completely screwed. So there

76
00:03:33,919 --> 00:03:36,520
were people in the comments, as they always are. Keep

77
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,240
those comments coming, whether they're negative or positive.

78
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:41,639
Speaker 2: We prefer the positive ones. But they're like, you.

79
00:03:41,599 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 3: Were making fun of all of these people with the

80
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:44,919
ladder choges and you lost too.

81
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:46,560
Speaker 2: Like no, our bet was.

82
00:03:46,599 --> 00:03:49,960
Speaker 3: Void, but on the off chance that somebody didn't get

83
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,319
there bet voided, we said, you know what, screw it.

84
00:03:52,360 --> 00:03:54,479
We won't count it as as a ladder play and

85
00:03:54,479 --> 00:03:56,560
will act like you know, for all intents and purposes,

86
00:03:56,560 --> 00:03:59,360
it lost. But what I've done, Andy, is I've continued

87
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:01,639
to roll mine. So this is now this is now

88
00:04:01,639 --> 00:04:04,960
step number four for me, step two. So it's going

89
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:07,280
on my own. The cross play that's loaded WT dot

90
00:04:07,319 --> 00:04:12,080
Buzz Backslash al one that I think is really mispriced here, Andy,

91
00:04:12,319 --> 00:04:13,479
So let's let's do it.

92
00:04:13,560 --> 00:04:15,439
Speaker 2: Let's go ladder wrong number two, brother.

93
00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:16,839
Speaker 4: Let's go. We'd had one hundred.

94
00:04:16,959 --> 00:04:20,040
Speaker 1: I did step one, which was George RUSSELLI win the

95
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,000
sprint race in Jose Delgado and Jose Delgado gave us

96
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:24,160
a fucking heart attack.

97
00:04:24,879 --> 00:04:27,800
Speaker 4: But we get there. We get there. Uh so we're

98
00:04:27,879 --> 00:04:28,439
rolling it over.

99
00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:30,839
Speaker 1: So now that's two hundred and twenty two hundred and

100
00:04:30,879 --> 00:04:33,079
twenty six dollars we have on the play tonight.

101
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:34,480
Speaker 4: So let's do it. Let's bring in Yanni.

102
00:04:35,519 --> 00:04:35,920
Speaker 5: Yanni.

103
00:04:36,439 --> 00:04:40,800
Speaker 1: Uh, hey, we were We couldn't stop talking about Jackpot,

104
00:04:41,399 --> 00:04:42,959
your dog.

105
00:04:43,399 --> 00:04:45,040
Speaker 4: How's he doing the best?

106
00:04:45,199 --> 00:04:47,959
Speaker 6: The best? He's the man, dude, He's the man. Great dog.

107
00:04:48,439 --> 00:04:51,279
Still figuring out what had to poop and peek correctly.

108
00:04:51,759 --> 00:04:56,800
But yeah, otherwise he's a home run. He's a home run.

109
00:04:56,839 --> 00:04:57,480
He really is.

110
00:04:57,519 --> 00:04:57,680
Speaker 7: Man.

111
00:04:57,759 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 3: Only taking me about thirty two years and I'm just

112
00:04:59,879 --> 00:05:01,120
now starting to figure it out.

113
00:05:01,160 --> 00:05:04,519
Speaker 2: So Jack Pott, we'll give him some time. He'll get there.

114
00:05:04,759 --> 00:05:06,959
Speaker 6: He means well, he means he just he loved me

115
00:05:07,040 --> 00:05:08,199
to beat, dude, he loves me.

116
00:05:09,199 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 4: Oh that's great. How was your weekend, brother?

117
00:05:12,040 --> 00:05:14,040
Speaker 6: I had a good weekend. I had bad result on

118
00:05:14,079 --> 00:05:16,879
Saturday and I got buried. I tell you when I went,

119
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:20,000
I tell you when I lose. And unfortunately, where I

120
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:23,639
feel worse is that I know so many guys that

121
00:05:23,680 --> 00:05:26,120
were new that jumped on or maybe jumped on for

122
00:05:26,199 --> 00:05:28,879
the day, ended up getting liquidated because I had that

123
00:05:28,920 --> 00:05:31,600
bad of a day, Like I got crushed in college basketball,

124
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:35,399
lost in MMA, even our soccer lost on Saturday. It

125
00:05:35,439 --> 00:05:37,560
was just that kind of horrific day. Was like the

126
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:40,839
perfect storm for the bookies to crush me, and it's

127
00:05:40,879 --> 00:05:43,959
just gonna happen. I'm glad it got out of the

128
00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:47,920
system before the big tournament, but it was almost like

129
00:05:48,120 --> 00:05:51,439
I felt a bad day coming, not that horrific, but

130
00:05:51,680 --> 00:05:54,199
I just knew we had to consolidate. In college basketball,

131
00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,040
like I went, was going up too quickly and too

132
00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:02,040
straight up a line like so when that happened, it's unsustainable.

133
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:04,439
You're gonna regress towards the mean. And even though I

134
00:06:04,439 --> 00:06:08,079
believe my means profitable, it's not at a six seven

135
00:06:08,120 --> 00:06:11,120
percent ROI over five hundred bets. That's not gonna happen.

136
00:06:11,519 --> 00:06:14,759
So we expected a little correction, but it all came

137
00:06:14,759 --> 00:06:15,439
in one day.

138
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:16,480
Speaker 2: Usually you could.

139
00:06:16,319 --> 00:06:19,120
Speaker 6: Spread out the correction and instead of having five and

140
00:06:19,160 --> 00:06:21,839
o days, you're having three and two days or three

141
00:06:21,879 --> 00:06:25,360
and split in and you're getting there regressing without it

142
00:06:25,439 --> 00:06:29,480
hurting you. But sometimes the regression comes in one day

143
00:06:29,759 --> 00:06:32,839
like that came for me, and boom it it just

144
00:06:32,959 --> 00:06:35,639
crushed everything. Like I went from number one in college

145
00:06:35,639 --> 00:06:38,439
basketball now number two. But you know, usue amount a

146
00:06:38,439 --> 00:06:41,560
little bit. I'm up seventy units for college basketball season,

147
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:46,040
and that's the main takeaway. It isn't the talent that

148
00:06:46,079 --> 00:06:48,480
I'm up seventy units and sitting at number two in

149
00:06:48,519 --> 00:06:51,480
college basketball. It's that if you are truly treating it

150
00:06:51,519 --> 00:06:54,480
like a business so that it pays you like a business,

151
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:57,120
then you're gonna have to understand that in your business,

152
00:06:57,120 --> 00:07:00,519
you're gonna have some bad days, some bad weeks, some

153
00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:05,079
bad months, but overall, if if your business is successful,

154
00:07:05,519 --> 00:07:08,279
you're going to be profitable year after year and more

155
00:07:08,399 --> 00:07:09,959
or less. That's what I've been able to do. And

156
00:07:10,000 --> 00:07:14,360
I'm confident for twenty twenty six, nicely ahead still and

157
00:07:14,839 --> 00:07:18,680
with March badness right in front of us and baseball

158
00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,360
like I'm excited, like I feel real good about what's ahead.

159
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:25,000
But again, I got to talk about Saturday because it

160
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:28,399
was really bad and it looked like high volume because

161
00:07:28,399 --> 00:07:31,240
there was so many markets and all on the same day.

162
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,959
So I apologize for that, but I truly hope you

163
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:39,519
followed our risk management blueprint to the letter, because if

164
00:07:39,560 --> 00:07:41,879
you did, you're still sitting comfortably ahead on your book

165
00:07:41,920 --> 00:07:44,639
maker for twenty twenty six and are looking forward to

166
00:07:44,720 --> 00:07:46,959
what's coming over the next couple of days. I have

167
00:07:47,079 --> 00:07:52,439
power rated every single March Tournament matchup side and total.

168
00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:56,800
I've got my power ratings going. I have top fifty

169
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:02,040
ready to go, so I'm really really ready for this tournament.

170
00:08:02,319 --> 00:08:06,040
Haven't released a single premium yet, but I bet probably

171
00:08:06,079 --> 00:08:10,879
fifteen plus positions. The reason I haven't released anything yet

172
00:08:11,199 --> 00:08:16,839
is because there's so much two way action going on early,

173
00:08:17,519 --> 00:08:20,680
and there's a lot of manipulation and a lot of

174
00:08:20,720 --> 00:08:24,360
taking advantage even of some like soft numbers, some off

175
00:08:24,439 --> 00:08:28,279
market numbers I'm seeing once everything settles kind of like

176
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:33,879
today tomorrow, you'll start to really see the maneuvering and

177
00:08:34,039 --> 00:08:36,879
like more real positions being taken, and if you look

178
00:08:36,919 --> 00:08:39,240
at some of the early line movements, it'll make sense

179
00:08:40,519 --> 00:08:45,080
on what's to come, Like the big moves are still

180
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:49,919
ahead again, You're still seeing like the market's still figuring

181
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,200
out where to go with all these matchups, but we

182
00:08:52,279 --> 00:08:55,320
haven't seen really that big of line moves. Seen some

183
00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,720
limit bets hit the window, but not huge, huge line

184
00:08:58,759 --> 00:09:02,799
moves yet. That's gonna happen because the public hasn't spoken yet,

185
00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:06,840
and public action outweighs sharp action when you get to

186
00:09:06,879 --> 00:09:11,320
the tournament. And because of that, we're about to see

187
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:13,840
like where these lines are going to settle over the

188
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:17,159
next forty eight hours, because that's when they will start

189
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,120
really moving the sharp limit bets. They're going to move

190
00:09:20,159 --> 00:09:23,159
it to half a point, maybe a point after you know,

191
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:27,000
a few limit bets, but the real risk won't start

192
00:09:27,039 --> 00:09:29,759
piling up until probably like Wednesday.

193
00:09:31,080 --> 00:09:33,840
Speaker 4: What what lines are we seeing if there's any any type.

194
00:09:33,639 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 6: Of Here's here's what's been bet already. Tuesday night, they

195
00:09:37,039 --> 00:09:39,279
took Howard plus two and a half and they went

196
00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:43,440
under one sixty NC State Texas. For Wednesday, they laid

197
00:09:43,440 --> 00:09:45,720
two and a half on Lehigh and they took the

198
00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,960
nine and the eight and a half on Miami, Ohio.

199
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,120
Now here's some Thursday and Friday games for you guys.

200
00:09:52,600 --> 00:09:55,679
Start off with Arizona seven to seventy Arizona minus thirty.

201
00:09:56,279 --> 00:09:59,159
Be careful, they bet these number one teams a lot

202
00:09:59,159 --> 00:10:02,720
of times, the public's gonna start betting them again, and

203
00:10:02,799 --> 00:10:05,240
that those are the lines that usually move significantly. Like

204
00:10:05,279 --> 00:10:07,399
the number one team will go for minus thirty and

205
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,159
go off at minus thirty five. Let's say knowing this,

206
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,200
they'll get down in minus thirty. Then they'll take the

207
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:15,919
plus thirty five come ten minutes before game time, and

208
00:10:15,960 --> 00:10:18,360
they have themselves a nice middle. So there's a lot

209
00:10:18,360 --> 00:10:21,879
of that gonna happen because they they they know, like

210
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:26,000
I know, which of these favorites are gonna get bet,

211
00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:28,759
And you could easily set yourself up with a ton

212
00:10:28,799 --> 00:10:32,000
of CLV or some middles by getting out ahead of

213
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:36,360
those moves. Seven sixty Perdue minus twenty four and a half,

214
00:10:36,879 --> 00:10:39,759
seven thirty Saint Mary's minus two and a half, seven

215
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:42,440
twenty four Illinois minus twenty two and a half. You're

216
00:10:42,440 --> 00:10:46,320
seeing a lot of favorites there. Seven sixty four Iowa

217
00:10:46,360 --> 00:10:49,600
State another favorite. And then you see in some of

218
00:10:49,639 --> 00:10:53,600
the two ways what I'm talking about. I saw different accounts. Now,

219
00:10:53,679 --> 00:10:56,120
I saw seven sixty six Saint John's minus nine and

220
00:10:56,120 --> 00:10:58,840
a half and ten, and I saw seven sixty five

221
00:10:58,960 --> 00:11:01,919
Northern Iowa plus two. Well, I saw seven seventy two

222
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,120
Villanova plus three. I saw seven seventy one of Utah

223
00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:08,240
State minus two, and I saw seven forty four Alabama

224
00:11:08,240 --> 00:11:10,840
minus twelve and a half. And I've seen seven forty

225
00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:14,799
three hops throughout plus fourteen. That's not surprising because when

226
00:11:14,840 --> 00:11:17,360
you get this late in the season, the line should

227
00:11:17,399 --> 00:11:21,000
really be tight. There shouldn't be that much huge line moves.

228
00:11:21,120 --> 00:11:24,039
The odds makers should already have a really good grasp

229
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,679
of what the true numbers should be. But where we're

230
00:11:26,679 --> 00:11:29,159
able to benefit and why we'll be able to profit

231
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:32,879
at times like this greater than any other is because

232
00:11:32,919 --> 00:11:37,240
they have to factor in the public perception the narratives

233
00:11:37,279 --> 00:11:40,399
coming into March Madness. They're gonna have to shade for

234
00:11:40,480 --> 00:11:43,679
all these biases. When they do that, and they're starting

235
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:46,919
to do it, that's when we'll see the floodgates open

236
00:11:47,039 --> 00:11:50,159
up and a ton of value on this board. Because

237
00:11:50,200 --> 00:11:55,200
I can tell you just by doing my power ratings, Andy.

238
00:11:53,919 --> 00:11:54,720
Speaker 7: There's a lot of.

239
00:11:56,200 --> 00:11:59,679
Speaker 6: Inefficiencies up in the market. Like there's a lot of

240
00:11:59,759 --> 00:12:03,360
team teams with a decent record that aren't even ranked

241
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:05,679
in my top fifty Like I said, I have my

242
00:12:05,759 --> 00:12:08,120
top fifty in my hand right now, and I can

243
00:12:08,159 --> 00:12:11,159
tell you five teams right now that look very impressive.

244
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:15,559
VCU twenty seven and seven, Boise State twenty and twelve,

245
00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:20,480
Seinton Hole twenty one and twelve, UCF twenty one and eleven,

246
00:12:20,639 --> 00:12:25,080
Saint Louis twenty eight and five. Those five teams would

247
00:12:25,080 --> 00:12:30,480
be an underdog to fifty plus college basketball teams. Those

248
00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:34,600
five are not even in my top fifty, and yet

249
00:12:34,720 --> 00:12:38,399
a team like Mississippi who's fifteen and twenty, a team

250
00:12:38,480 --> 00:12:42,279
like Northwestern who's fifteen and nineteen, a team like mark

251
00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:46,399
Kut who's twelve and twenty, a team like Washington who's

252
00:12:46,399 --> 00:12:50,200
sixteen and seventeen, would be favored on a neutral over

253
00:12:50,279 --> 00:12:53,960
all those teams. Even against a New Mexico, a twenty

254
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:56,960
three and nine New Mexico team, we would have Mississippi

255
00:12:57,000 --> 00:13:00,240
favored over them, New West Northwestern favored over them. So

256
00:13:00,720 --> 00:13:04,279
even though we're this late in the season, the records

257
00:13:04,759 --> 00:13:09,720
are forcing the lines to be shaded towards that bias.

258
00:13:09,879 --> 00:13:11,960
You see a twenty eight and five team, they should

259
00:13:11,960 --> 00:13:14,080
be good. You see a twenty seven and seventeen, they

260
00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,720
should be good. But dig a little deeper, and you'll

261
00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:19,240
see a strength of schedule. You'll see their offensive and

262
00:13:19,279 --> 00:13:25,960
defenses efficiencies aren't as impressive. They've gotten lucky. You'll see

263
00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:31,080
like the real high in turnovers, in fouls going their way.

264
00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,759
Like once you dig under the hood, that's what you'll

265
00:13:33,799 --> 00:13:37,240
start finding with those teams with real good records that

266
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:41,000
are overvalued and those teams with non impressive records that

267
00:13:41,039 --> 00:13:45,639
won't be in the dance that are undervalued because of

268
00:13:45,679 --> 00:13:48,840
that tough strength of schedule and being unlucky.

269
00:13:50,279 --> 00:13:52,840
Speaker 1: I'm looking at some of these spreads. I mean there's

270
00:13:54,159 --> 00:13:57,600
there's a thirty one and a half point spread in

271
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,000
the first round. Do you see do you see the

272
00:14:01,039 --> 00:14:04,279
sharps taking a look at these huge spreads or are

273
00:14:04,279 --> 00:14:06,919
they a lot more interested in, like you know, the

274
00:14:07,440 --> 00:14:10,000
ten to seven matchup where the spreads like plus two and.

275
00:14:09,879 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 4: A half, where those points are you know as vibe,

276
00:14:12,120 --> 00:14:13,279
I mean, great, what do you do?

277
00:14:13,360 --> 00:14:14,039
Speaker 6: Great question?

278
00:14:14,120 --> 00:14:17,000
Speaker 4: How do you handicap thirty one and a half? How

279
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:18,519
do you properly towerate that?

280
00:14:19,879 --> 00:14:22,159
Speaker 6: Here's why when you get those big point spreads, there's

281
00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:25,279
more variants. That's the that's the there's a positive and

282
00:14:25,320 --> 00:14:28,519
the negative to that. The positive is that you could

283
00:14:28,559 --> 00:14:31,919
take a little worse number. Every point is isn't worth

284
00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,200
as much when you're dealing with big point spreads, big totals,

285
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:37,600
Like when a game's supposed to be a poin flip,

286
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,200
every half point matters. You know, one team is supposed

287
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,159
to beat the other team by one point, than every

288
00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,759
damn point you could get matters. But when one team

289
00:14:44,759 --> 00:14:47,039
is supposed to beat the other by thirty does it

290
00:14:47,159 --> 00:14:49,639
matter whether you lay thirty or thirty one, or thirty

291
00:14:49,639 --> 00:14:51,399
two or thirty three. Is it really that big of

292
00:14:51,399 --> 00:14:53,919
a difference. If they're going to win by thirty, that

293
00:14:54,039 --> 00:14:58,559
variance should fall within like those numbers. That's where the

294
00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:02,120
big difference is, and that's why they're willing to bet these.

295
00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:04,879
But they bet them eurly. That's the key. Like they're

296
00:15:04,960 --> 00:15:07,720
never gonna bet minus thirty one and a half that

297
00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:10,519
open to twenty seven. They'll be at the minus twenty

298
00:15:10,559 --> 00:15:14,120
seven that closes thirty two. That's what will happen. But

299
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:17,120
they won't be laying minus thirty two on game day

300
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:19,960
and having it closed even thirty three thirty three.

301
00:15:19,759 --> 00:15:20,279
Speaker 5: And a half.

302
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:23,039
Speaker 6: They've gotten way out ahead. Any of the big favorites

303
00:15:23,080 --> 00:15:26,919
that they're betting rest assured, they're gonna move multiple points.

304
00:15:27,200 --> 00:15:30,120
And the only then question is are they coming back

305
00:15:30,159 --> 00:15:32,360
and bet on the other side? Are they gonna middle

306
00:15:32,399 --> 00:15:34,720
it is? It was it a setup to get a bet?

307
00:15:34,759 --> 00:15:37,440
Like those are the questions I have to ask myself.

308
00:15:38,440 --> 00:15:40,679
But yeah, they do bet those big favorites. And it

309
00:15:40,679 --> 00:15:42,480
makes sense because you know, you look at a team

310
00:15:42,559 --> 00:15:46,320
like Dupe, right and in college basketball, where you know,

311
00:15:46,360 --> 00:15:48,440
I have them as the number one team in the country,

312
00:15:48,559 --> 00:15:50,679
and then I go down like a seat and hole

313
00:15:51,159 --> 00:15:53,320
right that that is twenty one and twelve. But I

314
00:15:53,440 --> 00:15:57,039
have them barely what's it called live? And I don't

315
00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:58,639
even have them in my top fifty. I don't have

316
00:15:58,759 --> 00:16:01,679
them in my top fifty. Understand, I would make do

317
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:06,559
a fifteen point favorite over them, Like just off the

318
00:16:06,559 --> 00:16:08,120
top of my head, they'd be at least a fifteen

319
00:16:08,159 --> 00:16:11,080
to fifteen plus point favorite over them. Dig a little deeper,

320
00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:14,279
maybe even a little more so when they're playing the

321
00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:18,600
teams a lot worse than a seat and hole rest assured,

322
00:16:18,679 --> 00:16:21,039
like it's warranted a lot of times, laying that big

323
00:16:21,120 --> 00:16:24,000
chalk is warranted because even the book, you can only

324
00:16:24,039 --> 00:16:26,240
go so high, like do you go minus thirty? Do

325
00:16:26,279 --> 00:16:27,879
you go minus thirty one, thirty two?

326
00:16:28,000 --> 00:16:28,519
Speaker 7: What do you do?

327
00:16:28,840 --> 00:16:31,200
Speaker 6: So they're even in a tight spot, so they'll put

328
00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,080
the number out there and they'll let us the market

329
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:37,919
decide how high we think it should go. And again

330
00:16:38,000 --> 00:16:41,960
that gives us an advantage, but it also makes it difficult.

331
00:16:42,000 --> 00:16:44,320
Like you said, you know, when you're talking about those

332
00:16:44,320 --> 00:16:47,399
big numbers, like a win's a win. If you're up

333
00:16:47,399 --> 00:16:49,519
by thirty, you really need to win by thirty five?

334
00:16:49,919 --> 00:16:51,480
Or do you pull everyone out and now win by

335
00:16:51,519 --> 00:16:54,559
twenty two and not cover that's the problem something also

336
00:16:54,600 --> 00:16:56,720
with that in these big favorites early in the tournament.

337
00:16:57,440 --> 00:17:00,279
Speaker 1: Yeah, and it's you know, it's just like, well thirty

338
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:01,919
and a half, No, no, not good value?

339
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:02,799
Speaker 4: Thirty one and a half?

340
00:17:03,440 --> 00:17:05,960
Speaker 2: Now now, I love that exactly how you love it?

341
00:17:06,680 --> 00:17:09,279
Speaker 6: My power ak Like I see people buying points on

342
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:11,640
totals all the time, Bro, I swear I gotta keep

343
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:14,200
saying it because I saw it again yesterday, guys buying

344
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:16,880
U two thirty and a half down to two twenty

345
00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,759
nine and a half in NBA laying one thirty, Like, Bro,

346
00:17:19,920 --> 00:17:22,319
the game's gonna go over to twenty nine and a half.

347
00:17:22,319 --> 00:17:23,920
It's probably gonna go over two thirty and a half

348
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,160
as well. Like that, that one point really shouldn't matter

349
00:17:27,279 --> 00:17:29,599
all that much. But what they see is, oh, well,

350
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,160
the wise guys got down it over to twenty nine,

351
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:34,799
so that's the sharp play too. Thirty and a half

352
00:17:34,839 --> 00:17:37,079
probably not as sharp. So I'll just lay get the

353
00:17:37,119 --> 00:17:39,720
same number the sharps did, but you didn't because you're

354
00:17:39,759 --> 00:17:43,400
laying minus one twenty one thirty for it, so you're not.

355
00:17:43,519 --> 00:17:45,799
You don't have the same bet. But again, that's the

356
00:17:45,839 --> 00:17:47,799
disconnect I keep seeing over and over.

357
00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:51,759
Speaker 1: Uh, what was your thoughts on kind of some of

358
00:17:51,759 --> 00:17:55,799
the craziness from over a UFC weekend? We have a

359
00:17:55,880 --> 00:18:01,319
truly that Charles Johnson's scorecard was one of the most confusing.

360
00:18:03,200 --> 00:18:04,759
It doesn't take a lot to confuse me in the

361
00:18:04,799 --> 00:18:07,079
sports betting world. Nothing surprised me, but that one was

362
00:18:07,119 --> 00:18:07,880
a That.

363
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:08,880
Speaker 4: One was a little bit weird.

364
00:18:09,039 --> 00:18:09,319
Speaker 5: Weird.

365
00:18:09,480 --> 00:18:13,720
Speaker 1: H Omar c tapping immediately as soon as someone got

366
00:18:13,759 --> 00:18:15,200
to his to his neck.

367
00:18:15,400 --> 00:18:16,200
Speaker 4: Harry Hardwick.

368
00:18:16,319 --> 00:18:18,680
Speaker 1: He's had two fights in the UFC, He's gotten knocked

369
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:20,720
out with a leg kick and now a broken jaw.

370
00:18:21,920 --> 00:18:25,880
Life's not going very good. For Harry Hardwick and uh

371
00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,160
then the second that the main event starts, you're like,

372
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:30,200
oh my god, Josh Emmon is so old. This isn't

373
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:30,519
gonna go.

374
00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:32,559
Speaker 2: It's gonna be killed. Yeah.

375
00:18:33,039 --> 00:18:36,160
Speaker 1: The second they stepped I was like, uh oh, that's

376
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:37,359
a forty one year old man.

377
00:18:38,680 --> 00:18:40,039
Speaker 2: And look at every bit of it.

378
00:18:40,240 --> 00:18:41,200
Speaker 5: Every bit of it too.

379
00:18:41,920 --> 00:18:44,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, listen, it's tough.

380
00:18:44,279 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 6: It's a tough racket, especially what you touched on. You

381
00:18:48,240 --> 00:18:50,920
got to deal with the judges. We talked about it

382
00:18:50,920 --> 00:18:54,000
in regular point spread sports all the time. It's it's

383
00:18:54,039 --> 00:18:56,319
tough enough when you know you got the best of

384
00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:59,079
it and you still lose. Meaning if I get Duke

385
00:18:59,160 --> 00:19:01,440
minus seven and the game goes off minus nine and

386
00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:03,599
a half ten, I know I got the best of it.

387
00:19:03,680 --> 00:19:05,920
Like I have an edge, I'm in a position where

388
00:19:05,920 --> 00:19:08,640
I should be cashing a ticket. You do everything right,

389
00:19:08,799 --> 00:19:11,839
and Duke's up by eleven with two seconds left, and

390
00:19:11,839 --> 00:19:14,759
all of a sudden, they throw up up the basket

391
00:19:14,960 --> 00:19:16,279
the length of the court and it goes in a

392
00:19:16,319 --> 00:19:18,319
three pointer for the other team and Duke ends up,

393
00:19:18,359 --> 00:19:21,079
you know, not covering that spread, and you did everything right,

394
00:19:21,119 --> 00:19:23,079
you got closing line value. They were even up with

395
00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:26,359
a second left, but you lost, Like that's gonna happen

396
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:28,599
in points spread sports and it pisses you off and off.

397
00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:32,640
But add to that with MMA, all that happens. But

398
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,960
then the ref jumps in and says, call off the shot,

399
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:38,279
you know what I mean? Like yes, Like do you

400
00:19:38,319 --> 00:19:40,119
even have to throw that in the mix? Now you

401
00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,160
have a judge also with the judge then yells.

402
00:19:42,839 --> 00:19:44,400
Speaker 5: No, no, no, wait, we're gonna count it.

403
00:19:44,519 --> 00:19:47,200
Speaker 6: We are gonna count it. Like there's all that shit

404
00:19:47,279 --> 00:19:49,720
going on at the same time. Dude, I lost the

405
00:19:49,799 --> 00:19:53,000
fight where the guy got two points deducted and the

406
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:53,559
first time.

407
00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:58,319
Speaker 1: I know there's always gay to lose.

408
00:19:58,359 --> 00:20:01,599
Speaker 6: That's what's crazy. So this, this, this is the best

409
00:20:01,640 --> 00:20:05,960
takeaway from this conversation, Andy, is this there's no locks,

410
00:20:06,839 --> 00:20:10,240
there's no short things. As as much as you think

411
00:20:10,279 --> 00:20:14,880
you're on the right side, something random can happen. And

412
00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:16,400
you got to keep that in the back of your

413
00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,640
mind with every bet you place. That should stop you

414
00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:24,119
from over betting, that should stop you from unloading and

415
00:20:24,519 --> 00:20:26,400
real life thinking like, oh this is a lock. Let

416
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:29,960
me double up that thought that I could do everything

417
00:20:30,079 --> 00:20:33,039
right and someone can still screw this up. For me,

418
00:20:33,799 --> 00:20:36,519
that has nothing to do with it is going to

419
00:20:36,599 --> 00:20:39,480
make me stick to you know, a little more risk management.

420
00:20:40,039 --> 00:20:43,440
If that that's the only positive that we should take

421
00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,119
from all this nonsense that we need to be more

422
00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:50,880
cautious as betters, because again, they could ruin it a

423
00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:52,279
great night for us.

424
00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:54,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, absolutely.

425
00:20:54,240 --> 00:20:56,519
Speaker 6: I mean every part you get two or three split decision, bro,

426
00:20:56,720 --> 00:20:59,960
that's ten percent split decision.

427
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:02,240
Speaker 1: You take unders on a fight, and all of a

428
00:21:02,240 --> 00:21:04,359
sudden there's an ipoke and you're like, well, this one's

429
00:21:04,359 --> 00:21:05,079
going the distance.

430
00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:08,880
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a left. Couldn't adicap that could could couldn't

431
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:11,359
figure that one out in there. So uh yeah, what

432
00:21:11,440 --> 00:21:11,839
a world?

433
00:21:11,920 --> 00:21:12,359
Speaker 2: What a world?

434
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 5: What a business?

435
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:14,359
Speaker 3: Uh?

436
00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:15,759
Speaker 4: What do you have up for everybody today?

437
00:21:15,799 --> 00:21:16,119
Speaker 5: On Monday?

438
00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,599
Speaker 4: I know you're gearing up for March maps busy, busy, busy.

439
00:21:18,640 --> 00:21:20,400
Speaker 6: That's why I didn't even put a steam sheet up

440
00:21:20,440 --> 00:21:23,480
today because the college basketball we're still I'm still forming

441
00:21:23,559 --> 00:21:25,279
the information I want to ship. I just don't want

442
00:21:25,279 --> 00:21:27,799
to throw random moves out there. Anyone could look at

443
00:21:27,799 --> 00:21:30,279
the odds screen, look at odds logic, look at wages talk.

444
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:32,440
You can see what line's moved and try to conclude

445
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,519
for yourself. I like certainty, so when I put it

446
00:21:35,519 --> 00:21:38,079
on the steam sheet, I'm certain that this is a

447
00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:41,440
move and that's gonna happen over tonight and tomorrow. So

448
00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,559
I didn't want to rush that because I know a

449
00:21:43,599 --> 00:21:47,559
lot of UH subscribers want that to help guide them

450
00:21:47,559 --> 00:21:50,519
as they do their their contests and their brackets and

451
00:21:50,559 --> 00:21:52,920
all of that. Trust me, I'm doing bet on it

452
00:21:52,960 --> 00:21:55,480
tomorrow with Kelly and Marco. We're gonna go over some

453
00:21:55,519 --> 00:21:58,200
of the tournament and some of the handicapping stuff we

454
00:21:58,279 --> 00:22:02,000
look at, and then we'll start receiving plays, probably tonight

455
00:22:02,079 --> 00:22:05,440
or tomorrow at the latest. Don't wait, because the lines

456
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,519
are gonna move. We're gonna get out ahead. Everything's gonna

457
00:22:07,519 --> 00:22:10,559
be probably a four percent because it's only gonna be

458
00:22:10,559 --> 00:22:13,640
best bets over these next couple of days. Those packages

459
00:22:13,640 --> 00:22:15,880
will be up as soon as I confirm I'm rushing nothing.

460
00:22:16,119 --> 00:22:18,000
I'm looking out for the guys that have partnered with

461
00:22:18,039 --> 00:22:20,559
me for twenty twenty six and the guys that partnered

462
00:22:20,599 --> 00:22:22,559
with me long term. That's who I'm looking out for.

463
00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:25,039
If I get some gold for the day, that'll be

464
00:22:25,119 --> 00:22:27,960
up for daily guys as well. But I'm focusing on

465
00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:30,559
making sure I turn a profit these this next week

466
00:22:30,680 --> 00:22:32,440
or so, because I got a little work to make

467
00:22:32,519 --> 00:22:36,440
up from Saturday and the perfect time to do it.

468
00:22:36,519 --> 00:22:39,279
So let's have a good week, and those packages will

469
00:22:39,279 --> 00:22:42,000
be up for Thursday's games, for Friday's games, as soon

470
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:44,519
as I have gold to put in them, they'll be up.

471
00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:49,079
Speaker 1: All right, thank you very much, you boys too. Yeah, yeah,

472
00:22:49,079 --> 00:22:50,799
I bet on it. It's gonna be uh Dan, I

473
00:22:50,880 --> 00:22:53,319
believe you're producing that one. We'll get that, get that

474
00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:55,799
episode out, get you ready for college basketball.

475
00:22:55,920 --> 00:22:58,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they're gonna have best bets for Thursday Friday

476
00:22:59,079 --> 00:23:01,359
some month thoughts on who might be winning the tourny.

477
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:03,240
So yeah, it's gonna it's gonna be a great show,

478
00:23:03,319 --> 00:23:05,839
and we're gonna record that tomorrow morning. It'll be up

479
00:23:05,839 --> 00:23:08,920
by the late afternoon for wager talking insiders, it'll be

480
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:10,480
up pretty much the second we're.

481
00:23:10,319 --> 00:23:11,000
Speaker 5: Done recording it.

482
00:23:11,119 --> 00:23:13,559
Speaker 2: So uh yeah, and you heard Yanni.

483
00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:15,599
Speaker 3: I mean the line moves that will be in this

484
00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:19,799
tournament will be crazy, and folks like caution early on.

485
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:22,200
A lot of what these people are trying to do

486
00:23:22,319 --> 00:23:24,079
is get buy back numbers.

487
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:27,160
Speaker 2: You know, get four, get four points of straddle here.

488
00:23:27,279 --> 00:23:29,880
Speaker 3: So when you hear Yanni saying, hey, this is what

489
00:23:29,920 --> 00:23:33,039
the Sharks are betting today, he prepaceed it by saying, hey,

490
00:23:33,279 --> 00:23:35,480
this is this. This could just be because they're trying

491
00:23:35,480 --> 00:23:37,200
to do a little head fake and get the actual

492
00:23:37,279 --> 00:23:40,480
number that they want. So tread lightly trying to you know,

493
00:23:40,559 --> 00:23:43,880
tail the steam here coming up in in March madness.

494
00:23:43,880 --> 00:23:44,319
Speaker 2: For sure.

495
00:23:46,279 --> 00:23:49,240
Speaker 1: The only way to bet UFC is live betting. It's

496
00:23:49,279 --> 00:23:52,319
the only sport that I try and live bet. I

497
00:23:53,000 --> 00:23:55,359
won't I won't mess with any There are other guys

498
00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:57,519
that have cracked the code with live betting and some

499
00:23:57,559 --> 00:23:59,400
other sports, but I can't figure it out. But I

500
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,839
will just tell you the second that there is a

501
00:24:02,839 --> 00:24:05,440
foul in an MMA fight and the ref has to

502
00:24:05,440 --> 00:24:07,680
stop it because of a low blow or an ipoke,

503
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,119
it's just an automatic. You take the fight to go

504
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,880
the distance, You're gonna go three and one every card.

505
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:15,519
Speaker 4: It just just rinse and repeat.

506
00:24:15,519 --> 00:24:20,519
Speaker 1: Is second that foul happens, it stops, it stops everything.

507
00:24:21,519 --> 00:24:24,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, So that's the Uh. That's that's my uh,

508
00:24:24,799 --> 00:24:27,720
that's my my tip for live betting on UFC.

509
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:32,000
Speaker 1: So, uh, let's bring in Bill Krakenburger talk to him

510
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:33,200
about what's up Bill?

511
00:24:33,279 --> 00:24:35,440
Speaker 7: How are you hey, guys? How are we doing all right?

512
00:24:36,319 --> 00:24:36,680
Speaker 4: Good?

513
00:24:37,039 --> 00:24:37,200
Speaker 5: How?

514
00:24:37,279 --> 00:24:39,000
Speaker 4: What's what's March Madness like for you?

515
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:41,119
Speaker 5: Last time?

516
00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:43,000
Speaker 7: I was over at the South Point because at the

517
00:24:43,039 --> 00:24:46,720
counter they give up to ten thousand dollars compared to

518
00:24:46,759 --> 00:24:49,799
the app where they take a dime. So I didn't

519
00:24:49,799 --> 00:24:51,559
bet ten on anything. I bet five on a couple,

520
00:24:51,640 --> 00:24:54,200
bet four. I don't know why bet four, but four

521
00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:55,799
in a game that I thought I was going to

522
00:24:55,839 --> 00:24:58,759
be able to get somewhere else the time, and I

523
00:24:58,839 --> 00:25:00,480
actually did. And so I was kind of I want

524
00:25:00,480 --> 00:25:01,799
to bet like five thousand.

525
00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:02,200
Speaker 5: On those games.

526
00:25:02,440 --> 00:25:05,640
Speaker 7: And you know, I'm one that puts my money where

527
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:09,720
my mouth is, and I bet I'm a better I

528
00:25:09,759 --> 00:25:13,240
bet there. I MGM took some nice size bets from me.

529
00:25:13,279 --> 00:25:16,880
They were taking five thousand on sides, three thousand on totals.

530
00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:19,680
Speaker 5: I'm very happy with that.

531
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,640
Speaker 7: And you try to get ahead of these some of

532
00:25:22,640 --> 00:25:26,200
the lines some I released right away on wager Talk,

533
00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:30,000
And you know, when you're releasing these games on wager talk,

534
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:33,960
you have to have your notifications on because things are

535
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:37,960
going to move in my favor, you know, overall, and

536
00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:43,720
like some things A perfect example like here, I just

537
00:25:43,759 --> 00:25:45,400
have a bunch of tickets that I bet last night.

538
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,640
Speaker 5: I was looking at a right sold like.

539
00:25:47,839 --> 00:25:52,559
Speaker 7: Like, I couldn't release this bet, which was I literally

540
00:25:52,640 --> 00:25:56,200
bet four thousand on Perdue minus twenty.

541
00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:56,519
Speaker 5: Three and a half.

542
00:25:56,720 --> 00:25:59,880
Speaker 7: Could not release that though, because there wasn't anything else.

543
00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:03,799
Now silly me, though I could have released minus twenty

544
00:26:03,839 --> 00:26:06,480
four when it gets up to that high of a number,

545
00:26:07,480 --> 00:26:11,359
certain numbers, I like to release obtainable numbers.

546
00:26:11,759 --> 00:26:16,400
Speaker 5: Here in Las Vegas. I was very upset that we

547
00:26:16,400 --> 00:26:17,839
were last.

548
00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:21,079
Speaker 7: Besides the south Point south Point putting numbers up. The

549
00:26:21,119 --> 00:26:23,599
south Point put their numbers up the first first sportsbook

550
00:26:23,599 --> 00:26:25,759
in Las Vegas, like they have every year. It seems

551
00:26:25,799 --> 00:26:29,279
like to me it's a battle south Point Westgate. They

552
00:26:29,400 --> 00:26:33,000
usually get the numbers up first. And like I said,

553
00:26:33,160 --> 00:26:35,400
take more money at the counter at south Point. So

554
00:26:35,480 --> 00:26:38,160
I bet a few games at Westgate, not too many, only.

555
00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:38,599
Speaker 5: Got two there.

556
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:41,920
Speaker 7: I think I got six at south Point for five

557
00:26:42,039 --> 00:26:45,839
six six. At south Point, I bet about I bet

558
00:26:45,880 --> 00:26:46,920
a ton of MGM.

559
00:26:47,279 --> 00:26:48,759
Speaker 5: I mean at one.

560
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:50,240
Speaker 7: Point I was afraid I wasn't gonna enough money on

561
00:26:50,279 --> 00:26:51,160
my account at MGM.

562
00:26:51,200 --> 00:26:51,759
Speaker 5: Put it that way.

563
00:26:53,200 --> 00:26:56,160
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, And you know when I'm betting.

564
00:26:56,519 --> 00:26:58,279
Speaker 5: I'm also releasing too, we have.

565
00:26:58,519 --> 00:27:00,640
Speaker 7: We had a really good long on one of my

566
00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:05,759
games that was available everywhere. I waited till it's an

567
00:27:05,759 --> 00:27:09,000
obtainable number. There's still some great plays up there, still

568
00:27:09,039 --> 00:27:11,680
some great plays to be made. I'll be making some

569
00:27:11,759 --> 00:27:14,039
first half plays. I was really upset just now I

570
00:27:14,079 --> 00:27:17,319
was gonna release a first half play, but it's only

571
00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:23,240
at literally Pinnacle and off two other offshore sites. By

572
00:27:23,279 --> 00:27:26,880
the way, this is first half on one of the

573
00:27:27,039 --> 00:27:29,079
playing games. I was like, oh God, I can't believe

574
00:27:29,079 --> 00:27:31,039
they're going to have them up yet. So the first

575
00:27:31,079 --> 00:27:33,359
half that they don't have up the first half totals.

576
00:27:33,640 --> 00:27:37,599
I'll do a little more total betting during March Madness also,

577
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:40,480
but listen, I'm one of the rare people in the

578
00:27:40,519 --> 00:27:45,000
space that actually bet what I say and fire and

579
00:27:45,079 --> 00:27:45,799
all night long.

580
00:27:45,920 --> 00:27:46,799
Speaker 5: That's what I did.

581
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:50,440
Speaker 7: And then I went over for a good stake over

582
00:27:50,480 --> 00:27:52,839
at I'll tell you, we have some great restaurants here

583
00:27:52,839 --> 00:27:56,440
that the Vets at Park MVM. If you can get

584
00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:59,160
in there. It's just so impossible to get into the Vets.

585
00:27:58,960 --> 00:28:01,920
Is there's one in your cago one here. Just throwing

586
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:04,720
a little food review here for you guys. I can't

587
00:28:04,720 --> 00:28:06,599
even get in, though I don't say it because I'm

588
00:28:06,599 --> 00:28:08,440
trying to get in. I gotta go on the site

589
00:28:08,480 --> 00:28:10,720
and then go to the counter, and you know, trying

590
00:28:10,759 --> 00:28:14,039
to you know, they made her dese, that made her their.

591
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:17,039
Speaker 5: Little girls and short skirts. You want to fold up

592
00:28:17,039 --> 00:28:17,640
a twenty.

593
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:19,640
Speaker 7: Dollars bill and get them twenty and say when can

594
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,559
I get in? And they sit and they get scared

595
00:28:21,599 --> 00:28:23,160
and run to the manager. Oh my god, this guy

596
00:28:23,200 --> 00:28:26,119
gave me twenty. No one tips anymore. It's not like a.

597
00:28:26,119 --> 00:28:30,160
Speaker 3: Wow, it's a different world when you can just be like, hey,

598
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:31,519
you know by the counter.

599
00:28:31,640 --> 00:28:33,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's completely changed.

600
00:28:33,319 --> 00:28:35,839
Speaker 3: And one thing, Bill that you mentioned there, that Andy

601
00:28:35,839 --> 00:28:38,559
and I talk about all the time on air off air,

602
00:28:39,440 --> 00:28:42,920
you can tell the difference when people are actually betting

603
00:28:43,000 --> 00:28:46,000
their own plays, you know, like like there there are

604
00:28:46,079 --> 00:28:49,039
plenty of people in the space, especially on that that

605
00:28:49,359 --> 00:28:51,119
site that used to have a burn on it that

606
00:28:51,200 --> 00:28:53,920
now has an X where it's just oh, this is

607
00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:56,480
my megagoat whale Max Play and you know they're full

608
00:28:56,519 --> 00:28:58,839
of shit. Bill, But like that's something that Andy and

609
00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:01,119
I take pride in, And I mean, you're showing the

610
00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:04,240
people your real tickets. Like I'm in the fox hole

611
00:29:04,279 --> 00:29:06,359
with you. I ain't gonna tell you something because I

612
00:29:06,359 --> 00:29:08,599
want to get down on the other side. I'm riding

613
00:29:08,680 --> 00:29:11,960
with you here on this ticket, and it's it's something

614
00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:15,279
that's yeah, look at it. I'll full look at them

615
00:29:15,319 --> 00:29:16,160
there it is that.

616
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,960
Speaker 7: That's a total I bet last night, Howard thirty three

617
00:29:19,039 --> 00:29:21,480
hundred Baltimore counting. I mean that that's the most they took.

618
00:29:21,519 --> 00:29:22,759
If they took more, I would have bet more. I

619
00:29:22,759 --> 00:29:26,079
want about five I want about five thousand on the place,

620
00:29:27,559 --> 00:29:30,480
you know. And I'm a better man. I'm a better

621
00:29:30,759 --> 00:29:33,359
you know, there's no reason that's well, you know, that's

622
00:29:33,359 --> 00:29:34,640
what I do, no matter what, you know.

623
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:36,400
Speaker 5: When I get mad, I got mad.

624
00:29:36,279 --> 00:29:39,480
Speaker 7: At some kind of sometimes social media, I get mad

625
00:29:39,960 --> 00:29:44,240
or doing the shows I do, and I you know,

626
00:29:44,319 --> 00:29:46,839
I just get mad and I say and I speak

627
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:50,119
my mind on shows. And when I speak my mind,

628
00:29:50,319 --> 00:29:53,519
I threatened till I lost an advertiser because of my mouth.

629
00:29:53,920 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 5: And to be honest with you, I don't care. I

630
00:29:57,640 --> 00:29:58,519
can still go back.

631
00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:01,400
Speaker 7: To doing what I've always done, making a good amount

632
00:30:01,440 --> 00:30:03,400
of money every year betting sports. I don't have to,

633
00:30:03,759 --> 00:30:05,400
you know, a lot of people that are on shows

634
00:30:05,440 --> 00:30:11,839
and a host of nationwide shows, TV giant programs everywhere.

635
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:16,359
If they lose their job in sports betting media, they

636
00:30:16,359 --> 00:30:19,440
have to go back, I guess and sweet Floors, well.

637
00:30:19,319 --> 00:30:21,799
Speaker 5: Can they can't make money betting. I'm not making fun

638
00:30:21,839 --> 00:30:23,920
of anyone sweeping floors. You used to do that.

639
00:30:24,279 --> 00:30:27,160
Speaker 7: I had more blue collar jobs than anyone out there.

640
00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:30,880
Trust me, I did everything a blue collar But I'm

641
00:30:30,920 --> 00:30:34,119
just saying, like the space is so full of fagazy

642
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:36,920

a rant. Thank you for that comment. I'm they got

644
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,200

You know, there's a lot, a lot of good things happening.

650
00:30:57,400 --> 00:30:59,720
Vegas is great. I have to call out and I

651
00:30:59,759 --> 00:31:02,319
have to try to save people from themselves. It's really

652
00:31:02,319 --> 00:31:04,720
easy to get to get caught up in the uh.

653
00:31:05,039 --> 00:31:08,400
You know, you watch ESPN and you see ninety percent

654
00:31:08,480 --> 00:31:11,440
of them talking about the spread and games, and they

655
00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:14,000
couldn't pick a winner with tomorrow's newspaper open.

656
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:17,799
Speaker 3: So you know, yeah, that's the thing, Billy, You're allowed.

657
00:31:17,839 --> 00:31:20,200
You can be more positive. You can be positive. There's

658
00:31:20,200 --> 00:31:21,599
a lot of people in this space who are full

659
00:31:21,599 --> 00:31:24,400
of shit. That's I'm something, that's something I'm positive about.

660
00:31:24,759 --> 00:31:26,920
Uh for sure, Bill, I do want to get your

661
00:31:26,920 --> 00:31:29,880
thoughts on tourny time in Vegas. But before we do that,

662
00:31:30,279 --> 00:31:31,880
you got a player prop for the folks. I know

663
00:31:31,880 --> 00:31:34,359
it's full steam ahead on college basketball. You've already been

664
00:31:34,400 --> 00:31:37,000
betting some of that. People can get your access. You

665
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:40,119
can check out wt dof buzz Backslash crack Man. Head

666
00:31:40,160 --> 00:31:42,519
on over to his page that one forty nine access

667
00:31:42,599 --> 00:31:45,440
through the National Championship is still live. You got a

668
00:31:45,440 --> 00:31:48,640
player prop here for the folks because because because NBA

669
00:31:48,759 --> 00:31:49,440
is still rocking.

670
00:31:49,519 --> 00:31:52,519
Speaker 5: Man, I'm just laughing at one hundred and forty nine dollars.

671
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:53,519
It's great.

672
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:56,960
Speaker 7: It wasn't my decision, Bill, No, I'm just saying that

673
00:31:57,079 --> 00:32:01,480
that that that is a great deal though. But okay, NBA,

674
00:32:01,599 --> 00:32:06,119
let's go to the bulls. Josh Giddy to go over

675
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:08,559
eighteen and a half. Make sure it's still eighteen and

676
00:32:08,559 --> 00:32:10,839
a half minus one twenty Okay, eighteen and a half

677
00:32:10,839 --> 00:32:15,079
rebounds and assist he's off a minute restrictions fully healthy now,

678
00:32:15,599 --> 00:32:19,519
so it should be getting thirty two thirty two plus

679
00:32:19,559 --> 00:32:23,319
minutes of game time versus Grizzlies team that's one of

680
00:32:23,359 --> 00:32:26,839
the worst in the in the NBA on defense. So,

681
00:32:27,319 --> 00:32:29,519
like I said, healthy now, a game total also is

682
00:32:29,559 --> 00:32:33,440
like two forty three ish something like that. I expected

683
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:38,559
plenty of assistant rebounds for Giddy tonight. So go over

684
00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:40,960
eighteen and a half minus one twenty one twenty five,

685
00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:41,480
that's fine.

686
00:32:42,640 --> 00:32:44,640
Speaker 5: Sometimes I'll look if I.

687
00:32:44,599 --> 00:32:48,400
Speaker 7: Can go over nineteen and a half even that's probably

688
00:32:48,440 --> 00:32:51,720
even a better play. So but over eighteen and a half

689
00:32:51,720 --> 00:32:53,799
minus twenty if you can find that there's a there's

690
00:32:53,839 --> 00:32:58,799
a play there for props. As far as selection Sunday went,

691
00:32:59,319 --> 00:33:03,599
I don't think that there's that many. I really don't

692
00:33:03,640 --> 00:33:05,720
have that many complaints on Alan Boston, who I'm doing

693
00:33:05,720 --> 00:33:08,079
the show with tomorrow from the Westgate.

694
00:33:08,119 --> 00:33:09,599
Speaker 5: Now tomorrow we're doing tomorrow.

695
00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:12,960
Speaker 7: Yeah, We're doing tomorrow tomorrow eleven am live from the

696
00:33:12,960 --> 00:33:15,039
West Gate, and we're gonna have like a little meet

697
00:33:15,079 --> 00:33:18,000
and greet after at the West skate around twelve twelve, fifteen,

698
00:33:18,039 --> 00:33:21,759
twelve thirty. Alan like he's gonna go down every game,

699
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,200
So it's really good to hear what Allen has to say.

700
00:33:24,519 --> 00:33:26,599
But Alan was very upset. He's always upset at the

701
00:33:26,640 --> 00:33:30,119
committee though, and I understand many years he's been more

702
00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:33,440
upset about the you know, the mid majors and stuff.

703
00:33:33,480 --> 00:33:35,799
So I was happy to see Miami Ohio get in

704
00:33:35,799 --> 00:33:39,240
and rewarded on their undefeated regular season, even though they

705
00:33:39,279 --> 00:33:42,440
did they did lose the conference conference tournament. But I

706
00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:46,119
think there are nine or you know, eight or nine

707
00:33:46,160 --> 00:33:48,720
teams that literally have a chance to win it all.

708
00:33:49,039 --> 00:33:53,799
But I wouldn't bet that future into a one way market.

709
00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,039
I think maybe circa has a two way market where

710
00:33:56,039 --> 00:33:59,160
you could bet each either team both ways yes and no.

711
00:33:59,839 --> 00:34:04,799
Speaker 5: And also and maybe just do a money line parlay

712
00:34:05,559 --> 00:34:06,039
on a team.

713
00:34:06,119 --> 00:34:08,400
Speaker 7: Let's say you like a Houston team, and you know,

714
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:10,519
you just bet, you know, instead of taking the nine

715
00:34:10,559 --> 00:34:13,440
to one, you can just moneyline parlay Houston or something

716
00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:18,599
like that. So it's it's a mechanical parlay. But yeah,

717
00:34:18,639 --> 00:34:21,360
this is an easy time to over bet your bankroll, though,

718
00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:24,719
so don't go so crazy just because you know, especially

719
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:26,079
if you're in one of the sports books and one

720
00:34:26,119 --> 00:34:29,159
of the casinos. It's really easy. You're in the atmosphere,

721
00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:32,320
you feel it, the energy. You know people just easily,

722
00:34:33,360 --> 00:34:35,320
you know, say I got to be involved in something.

723
00:34:35,599 --> 00:34:38,199
Look every sports book in the country, just look look

724
00:34:38,280 --> 00:34:40,440
look at the counter when games are going off. I'll

725
00:34:40,480 --> 00:34:42,639
use the NFL though, ten o'clock games out out here,

726
00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:46,440
one o'clock games back east. Every single sports book in

727
00:34:46,559 --> 00:34:49,800
America there is a where there's a walk up line.

728
00:34:49,920 --> 00:34:51,840
People get shut out. Why because they didn't know what

729
00:34:51,840 --> 00:34:53,679
they wanted to bet last minute. They just had to

730
00:34:53,679 --> 00:34:56,800
have action. They weren't ready. They're betting into an efficient market,

731
00:34:56,880 --> 00:34:59,960
so believe it or not, this even though the line

732
00:35:00,159 --> 00:35:02,119
come out last night and now there is a market,

733
00:35:02,519 --> 00:35:06,440
it's probably not efficient yet. So this first and second

734
00:35:06,519 --> 00:35:11,039
rounds here, I really enjoy playing these first uh these

735
00:35:11,079 --> 00:35:14,559
first Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. Just don't get caught up,

736
00:35:14,559 --> 00:35:16,519
and you know, don't bet outside your bankroll. Two and

737
00:35:16,559 --> 00:35:19,880
a half percent of your bank roll something like that

738
00:35:19,920 --> 00:35:23,400
is what I recommend as a strong play. And like

739
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:26,559
I said, we're going to have plenty more plays. I'm

740
00:35:26,559 --> 00:35:29,039
waiting for some first half lines to come up. I

741
00:35:29,039 --> 00:35:30,920
want to see where a couple of these lines actually

742
00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:34,800
wound up. Perfect example, like here, Look, you want to

743
00:35:34,800 --> 00:35:35,679
see a bad bet I made.

744
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:36,920
Speaker 5: Every bet here is a good bet.

745
00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:40,039
Speaker 4: All endicular of every bet is a good bet.

746
00:35:42,320 --> 00:35:43,199
Speaker 5: Miami Ohio.

747
00:35:44,119 --> 00:35:45,920
Speaker 7: I bet it when it was nine, when the line

748
00:35:46,000 --> 00:35:49,159
was plus nine Miami Ohio. So now they but they

749
00:35:49,199 --> 00:35:51,559
gave me at the time that that line just came up.

750
00:35:51,679 --> 00:35:54,199
Then I bet so, I bet. I actually bet five

751
00:35:54,239 --> 00:35:55,880
thousand on that game. And then I bet it again

752
00:35:56,119 --> 00:35:58,000
plus eight and a half is Miami Ohio plus eight

753
00:35:58,000 --> 00:35:58,239
and a half?

754
00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:01,519
Speaker 5: Again, I bet it twice so that But however, I

755
00:36:01,559 --> 00:36:04,760
took a bad line. What the heck is it? I

756
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:05,639
bet a bad line.

757
00:36:05,719 --> 00:36:06,960
Speaker 7: You look at this. I could have got a better

758
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:07,599
line today.

759
00:36:09,639 --> 00:36:10,039
Speaker 5: Anyway.

760
00:36:10,239 --> 00:36:12,559
Speaker 7: I just trying to tell you guys that I even

761
00:36:12,639 --> 00:36:15,920
myself up there. It is there kind of four thousand

762
00:36:16,000 --> 00:36:20,280
of this. I'm pissed off of myself not waiting so here,

763
00:36:20,639 --> 00:36:26,239
so here this Sienna bet I I took four plus

764
00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:28,360
twenty eight and a half. That's the only bad bet

765
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:31,840
I made where I'm just a sick bastard. Though I'll

766
00:36:31,840 --> 00:36:33,599
go in now if it goes to thirty, it's twenty

767
00:36:33,679 --> 00:36:36,800
nine and a half. Another couple couple of dimes on it.

768
00:36:37,679 --> 00:36:39,480
Maybe I just thought it was a little bit high.

769
00:36:39,480 --> 00:36:42,559
But however, like that's not my believe or not. It's

770
00:36:42,559 --> 00:36:45,719
not my strongest bet, but it is. Sometimes you do

771
00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,159
make you know, you make bad bets too. I found

772
00:36:48,199 --> 00:36:49,679
a twelve and a half there on a play that

773
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:50,599
wasn't it.

774
00:36:50,599 --> 00:36:52,119
Speaker 5: It wasn't even eleven.

775
00:36:51,719 --> 00:36:53,760
Speaker 7: In It was like eleven and a half everywhere I

776
00:36:53,840 --> 00:36:56,119
gave it out. So yeah, I bet oh high point

777
00:36:56,239 --> 00:36:58,920
high point plus twelve and a half. That line wasn't

778
00:36:58,960 --> 00:37:01,960
available anywhere high point plus twelve and a half, but

779
00:37:02,159 --> 00:37:04,320
they opened it with twelve and a half. So listen,

780
00:37:04,480 --> 00:37:06,719
I show bets. There's a reason why I show bets,

781
00:37:06,719 --> 00:37:08,719
because I bet my own money. I'm not only telling

782
00:37:08,719 --> 00:37:10,960
you to bet something that I don't bet thousands and

783
00:37:11,000 --> 00:37:14,159
thousands of dollars. I bet seventy five thousand dollars yesterday,

784
00:37:14,199 --> 00:37:17,679
seventy five thousand on things. I mean, Oh, a better,

785
00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:18,519
I'm a better.

786
00:37:18,639 --> 00:37:20,679
Speaker 5: I'm a better. That's a you know, wow.

787
00:37:20,840 --> 00:37:23,800
Speaker 7: You know I'm not saying it to Bragg, trust me. No,

788
00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:25,960
I'm not saying I'm saying it to tell you guys

789
00:37:26,239 --> 00:37:29,000
that I bet real stuff. I bet my own stuff.

790
00:37:29,000 --> 00:37:30,920
I put money up and I bet like a man.

791
00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:34,679
Speaker 3: Well, Bill, we'll keep our eyes peeled for that show

Bill is betting.

809
00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:21,880
Speaker 2: So I had a college on those numbers.

thousand on darts.

815

Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't.

816
00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:39,679
Speaker 4: I don't think that might raise a flag.

817
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:43,320
Speaker 1: The most most I've ever made was about was about

818
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:45,840
thirty five hundred, and that was on the cricket play

819
00:38:45,880 --> 00:38:46,360
the Ashes.

820
00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:49,320
Speaker 4: That was that's been my biggest hit of the year.

821
00:38:49,639 --> 00:38:56,119
Speaker 3: So but mine, mine was Andy wyn Hideki Matsuyana won

822
00:38:56,239 --> 00:38:59,320
the one the Masters because you and I were talking

823
00:38:59,360 --> 00:39:02,199
and watching and and you were saying, dude, this guy's

824
00:39:02,239 --> 00:39:04,960
playing really well. It was on day two and he

825
00:39:05,119 --> 00:39:07,679
still was crazy plus money to win it all and

826
00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:10,360
he was he had a sizeable lead on the field.

827
00:39:10,719 --> 00:39:13,000
So I fired off, you know, way more than I

828
00:39:13,039 --> 00:39:15,480
typically would bet because my bank roll was allowing for it.

829
00:39:16,119 --> 00:39:18,679
Speaker 2: And then same thing. I think all in all ended.

830
00:39:18,599 --> 00:39:22,159
Speaker 3: Up getting back around probably like twenty five hundred. And

831
00:39:22,320 --> 00:39:25,400
you know, for for me on one play, that's a

832
00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:27,880
huge win, man, That's that's a huge win. So yeah,

833
00:39:28,239 --> 00:39:31,039
whenever anybody talks about their biggest win, immediately in my

834
00:39:31,079 --> 00:39:32,440
brain I go to high Deki.

835
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:33,880
Speaker 4: Metsuh, Deki Matziama.

836
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:38,119
Speaker 1: Yeah, back in the days they used they they couldn't

837
00:39:38,119 --> 00:39:41,599
get their their NASCAR lines right and they kept mixing

838
00:39:41,679 --> 00:39:43,440
up Kurt and Kyle Busch.

839
00:39:44,119 --> 00:39:45,239
Speaker 2: So I remember that.

840
00:39:45,679 --> 00:39:46,599
Speaker 4: I remember that.

841
00:39:47,000 --> 00:39:49,480
Speaker 1: So you kid get one driver who is in a

842
00:39:49,559 --> 00:39:53,639
backup pos and you, but they meant to have the

843
00:39:53,719 --> 00:39:54,639
other guy who was the.

844
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:57,519
Speaker 4: Like like one of the leaders for the championship. So yeah,

845
00:39:57,559 --> 00:39:58,000
there's been.

846
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:01,880
Speaker 3: And that's it's a perfect segue to who we have

847
00:40:01,960 --> 00:40:04,320
coming up here next with Steve Merrill. I want to

848
00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:06,159
put people to know what you have locked and loaded.

849
00:40:06,159 --> 00:40:08,039
But yeah, you can respond to Green here.

850
00:40:08,559 --> 00:40:11,360
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is a great one line movement in UFC.

851
00:40:11,679 --> 00:40:15,280
So whenever I see a line that moves over a

852
00:40:15,519 --> 00:40:19,599
dollar after Wiyans, so it's got to be a line

853
00:40:19,639 --> 00:40:23,960
move that's about a dollar after Wayans, it is an

854
00:40:24,039 --> 00:40:25,159
auto bet.

855
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:27,719
Speaker 4: It's just it's a complete auto bet.

856
00:40:27,960 --> 00:40:32,119
Speaker 1: Now, what we had Dan was a retiring fighter, a

857
00:40:32,159 --> 00:40:35,880
guy that announced he was retiring. That is also an

858
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:38,599
auto bet. So we had a weird one where we're

859
00:40:38,599 --> 00:40:42,039
betting against the retiring fighter, but then a dollar moved

860
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:45,360
on the guy that was retiring, so it canceled each

861
00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:47,599
other out. We didn't play it and the retiring fighter won.

862
00:40:47,639 --> 00:40:50,760
That's only the third fighter in UFC history that has

863
00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:53,880
announced they are retiring and then they won their match.

864
00:40:53,920 --> 00:40:56,119
But he was fighting Brad Tavares, who fights like a

865
00:40:56,159 --> 00:40:59,719
complete dipshit, and it was it was the full it

866
00:40:59,719 --> 00:41:03,480
was the lack of it was the whole Brad Tavaris experience,

867
00:41:03,599 --> 00:41:07,599
like low volume, getting pushed back, like like completely fighting

868
00:41:07,639 --> 00:41:09,239
down to the level of competition.

869
00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:11,880
Speaker 4: So yeah, so when when whenever you.

870
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:16,360
Speaker 1: See a a line move, that's gotta be after wayans,

871
00:41:16,360 --> 00:41:18,920
don't worry about don't worry about what happens before wayns,

872
00:41:19,000 --> 00:41:22,239
after wayanes. If this thing moves a dollar auto play,

873
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:26,079
and you'll be you'll be very very happy. So all right,

874
00:41:26,159 --> 00:41:27,199
let's bring in Steve Merril.

875
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:35,320
Speaker 8: Happy Monday, doing well, Busy Monday, Busy Sunday, the last

876
00:41:35,360 --> 00:41:39,159
twenty four hours, probably the busiest Sunday evening into Monday

877
00:41:39,199 --> 00:41:42,119
morning of the year. You know, normally it's it's like

878
00:41:42,239 --> 00:41:45,000
exhale time because the NFL finishes up. You maybe have

879
00:41:45,039 --> 00:41:47,280
one Monday night game. You know, it's a light baseball

880
00:41:47,320 --> 00:41:50,719
card and college hoops is very light on Monday, and

881
00:41:50,760 --> 00:41:53,000
they've taken it to the extreme tonight there's no college

882
00:41:53,000 --> 00:41:56,239
basketball yet. It's probably the busiest Monday in college basketball

883
00:41:56,280 --> 00:41:58,119
for me all season and I'll be doing a ton

884
00:41:58,159 --> 00:42:01,400
of standalone videos with Kelly here right after the show. Also,

885
00:42:01,400 --> 00:42:03,920
we'll have my first four preview for the Tuesday games

886
00:42:04,000 --> 00:42:06,440
up and also the Wednesday games right around the corner.

887
00:42:06,519 --> 00:42:09,920
Then every game on the board Thursday Friday. So yeah,

888
00:42:10,039 --> 00:42:12,199
it's literally the quiet before the storm as we have

889
00:42:12,320 --> 00:42:14,639
tornado warnings here on the East Coast, which is very.

890
00:42:14,880 --> 00:42:18,119
Speaker 2: Dude, It's it's brutal. The wind is whipping out here.

891
00:42:18,159 --> 00:42:20,360
Speaker 3: I'm like, man, let me this fingers crossed get through

892
00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:23,719
this show without losing power. But yeah, Steve also was

893
00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:26,519
the last night he was a member of the Daists

894
00:42:26,599 --> 00:42:30,000
that we had for the selection Sunday yesterday. Yeah, it

895
00:42:30,119 --> 00:42:35,039
was he Veno Trigger and Brian Power and Kelly. That

896
00:42:35,159 --> 00:42:37,159
video is still up if you want some live reactions,

897
00:42:37,159 --> 00:42:40,079
and these guys were dropping gold on you know, some

898
00:42:40,199 --> 00:42:43,280
season over season trends, some season long numbers as well.

899
00:42:43,519 --> 00:42:47,000
The whole episode is timestamped the Selection Sunday Wager Talk special.

900
00:42:47,039 --> 00:42:49,719
It's still on here and this special continues because when

901
00:42:49,760 --> 00:42:52,599
Steve and I are done, him and Kelly in Vegas

902
00:42:52,800 --> 00:42:55,280
are hopping in the booth for some teams to fade,

903
00:42:55,360 --> 00:42:58,239
some teams to bet On so great videos, folks, more

904
00:42:58,239 --> 00:43:01,400
reason than ever to subscribe right now outside of the

905
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:03,960
fact that Steve's going to give you every single game

906
00:43:04,440 --> 00:43:08,440
throughout throughout the tournament here and Steve throwing down the gauntlet.

907
00:43:08,440 --> 00:43:09,880
So yeah, I wish, I wish I could tell you, Steve,

908
00:43:09,880 --> 00:43:12,320
it's gonna get a little bit easier for you. It's

909
00:43:12,360 --> 00:43:14,079
going to be hell for you these next few weeks,

910
00:43:14,119 --> 00:43:16,000
but you do it because you're a man of the people.

911
00:43:16,440 --> 00:43:18,119
Speaker 8: No, it's definitely not hell. Do I love this time

912
00:43:18,159 --> 00:43:21,559
of year and it is probably anyway, but yeah, exactly,

913
00:43:21,599 --> 00:43:24,079
it really probably is my favorite sporting video. I say

914
00:43:24,079 --> 00:43:26,719
the NBA Playoffs is probably the best standalone moneymaker. I

915
00:43:26,719 --> 00:43:30,559
still believe that. But next this coming Thursday and Friday

916
00:43:31,199 --> 00:43:33,480
are my two favorite days in sports, not even as

917
00:43:33,519 --> 00:43:36,440
a sports better just as a fan, as a viewer,

918
00:43:37,039 --> 00:43:38,800
and I think most viewers out there, probably they are

919
00:43:38,840 --> 00:43:39,960
watching right now, would agree with that.

920
00:43:41,360 --> 00:43:41,639
Speaker 7: Yeah.

921
00:43:41,679 --> 00:43:46,480
Speaker 1: Absolutely, give me, give me just some initial thoughts of

922
00:43:46,519 --> 00:43:49,119
college basketball, some big picture kind of things, and then

923
00:43:49,599 --> 00:43:50,960
you know, we'll talk a little NBA.

924
00:43:51,039 --> 00:43:52,880
Speaker 4: So what's your thoughts so far on the brackets?

925
00:43:53,280 --> 00:43:55,280
Speaker 8: Yeah, well, I mean, first of all, we always talk

926
00:43:55,519 --> 00:43:58,320
I mean, March Madness is all about upsets and Cinderella's stories,

927
00:43:58,360 --> 00:43:59,760
and that is all fun, and we're going to see

928
00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:01,480
several of those here on Thursday and Friday in the

929
00:44:01,559 --> 00:44:05,239
round of sixty four. But when you're filling out your bracket,

930
00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:07,760
you only want to take the cinderellas so far. And

931
00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:09,559
first of all, it's very important to know how your

932
00:44:09,599 --> 00:44:11,679
brackets scored. You know, a lot of brackets kind of

933
00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:13,679
double up the points everywhere out, which means you could

934
00:44:13,679 --> 00:44:15,960
get every one of the first three rounds correct. But

935
00:44:16,000 --> 00:44:17,559
if you don't have the final four of the finals,

936
00:44:17,599 --> 00:44:19,519
or even the final correct, which is worth like triple

937
00:44:19,559 --> 00:44:22,880
quadruple the points, it's not going to matter. And I

938
00:44:22,920 --> 00:44:25,159
point that out because while it's fun to remember the

939
00:44:25,199 --> 00:44:29,000
final four Cinderellas and the first second round upsets, they

940
00:44:29,000 --> 00:44:31,400
never make it. They never win it. Effect, it's getting

941
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:33,679
worse than ever, it's more chalky than ever, and last

942
00:44:33,760 --> 00:44:36,960
year is a perfect example. All four number one seeds

943
00:44:37,000 --> 00:44:39,360
made the final four. Can't get any chalkier than that.

944
00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:41,920
And I don't think that was a fluke. With the

945
00:44:41,960 --> 00:44:44,559
transfer portal wide open, with this nil money, the rich

946
00:44:44,639 --> 00:44:47,880
had become richer. The mid majors have become weaker. We

947
00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:50,280
see less of them make the tournament, and even before

948
00:44:50,280 --> 00:44:52,840
everything opened up the last four to five years, For

949
00:44:52,880 --> 00:44:55,679
the last decade now, the NCAA has not wonted the

950
00:44:55,679 --> 00:44:58,639
mid major teams. You know, remember Leola Chicago's Sister Gene, Well,

951
00:44:58,639 --> 00:45:00,280
that was fun until the minute of the game tip off.

952
00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:02,920
Those were miserable final fours with loyal in Chicago in it.

953
00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:06,400
Brad Stevens and Butler, those weren't exactly fun finals a

954
00:45:06,400 --> 00:45:08,360
decade ago, and they both made it to the finals.

955
00:45:08,480 --> 00:45:10,199
But the one common element in all of those is

956
00:45:10,239 --> 00:45:12,679
that none of them won it. In fact, seven of

957
00:45:12,679 --> 00:45:15,159
the last eight national champs have been number one seeds,

958
00:45:15,679 --> 00:45:18,440
eight of the last ten national champs have been one seeds.

959
00:45:18,880 --> 00:45:20,960
And at once again we saw all four ones make

960
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:23,320
the final four last year. Six of the eight final

961
00:45:23,320 --> 00:45:26,119
four teams the last two years have been one seeds.

962
00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:30,519
The four ones this year, in no particular order, Duke, Michigan, Arizona,

963
00:45:30,599 --> 00:45:33,599
and Florida. So it's unlikely be one of those teams

964
00:45:33,599 --> 00:45:35,400
that cuts down the nets. I know, it's not sexy,

965
00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:38,239
it's not fun, it's not shock TV, but that's the reality.

966
00:45:38,239 --> 00:45:39,960
We live in and I think it's becoming more oneish

967
00:45:40,039 --> 00:45:41,599
than ever in the NCAA tournament.

968
00:45:42,800 --> 00:45:45,639
Speaker 1: It's also my annual reminder that if you fill out

969
00:45:45,800 --> 00:45:49,559
multiple brackets with different teams winning, you're just a horrible person.

970
00:45:50,079 --> 00:45:55,719
Speaker 8: Oh you fraud, You're going that's not where. Yeah, I

971
00:45:55,760 --> 00:45:58,079
do think you have your bracket. I agree with that,

972
00:45:58,159 --> 00:46:00,320
and you got to claim it. But from a game

973
00:46:00,360 --> 00:46:02,840
theory perspective, yeah, I get that.

974
00:46:03,400 --> 00:46:05,880
Speaker 3: But I'm saying, yeah, I got twelve brackets filled out,

975
00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:07,679
and you get to say, oh yeah, I called the way.

976
00:46:07,679 --> 00:46:09,440
Speaker 8: Oh no, no, yeah, you need the number them, right,

977
00:46:10,079 --> 00:46:11,920
You don't, you don't. You don't stick your chest out

978
00:46:11,960 --> 00:46:13,920
and bracket number twelve. By the way, I always try

979
00:46:13,920 --> 00:46:15,840
to do a couple of them on ESPN, and it's

980
00:46:15,880 --> 00:46:17,519
not not a top priority for me. And by the

981
00:46:17,519 --> 00:46:19,960
time we get to like twelve fifteen, well actually that's

982
00:46:20,039 --> 00:46:22,960
usually tip off, say twelve ten Eastern on Thursday, I've

983
00:46:22,960 --> 00:46:24,519
got like two or three filled out, and I'm just

984
00:46:24,559 --> 00:46:26,639
scrambling by mixing and match and just the guy to

985
00:46:26,639 --> 00:46:29,199
get the twenty. It's insane. It takes forever, even with

986
00:46:29,239 --> 00:46:31,639
the auto fill, to do that, and it just is

987
00:46:31,679 --> 00:46:34,480
not worth the return on time, but there are people

988
00:46:34,480 --> 00:46:34,880
that do it.

989
00:46:36,239 --> 00:46:37,760
Speaker 1: Let's go to the NBA. We got a couple of

990
00:46:37,760 --> 00:46:40,480
pretty good games tonight. We got the Suns, the Sons

991
00:46:40,480 --> 00:46:42,400
and the Celtic. I mean you could nominate the Suns

992
00:46:42,480 --> 00:46:46,519
and the Celtics the surprise teams in the NBA. And

993
00:46:46,559 --> 00:46:48,760
then we got the Lakers and the Rockets. So I'll

994
00:46:48,800 --> 00:46:52,000
just let you go. We'll probably clip this so floorishers

995
00:46:52,239 --> 00:46:53,679
tell us about these two games.

996
00:46:53,480 --> 00:46:54,800
Speaker 4: And what you have up at wager time.

997
00:46:56,519 --> 00:46:59,559
Speaker 8: Quite before the storm here. Obviously no college basketball Monday,

998
00:46:59,559 --> 00:47:01,519
but we do have strong NBA players of the board.

999
00:47:01,559 --> 00:47:03,679
In fact, there's eight NBA games and I do have

1000
00:47:03,719 --> 00:47:05,400
a best bet for my clients, and you might want

1001
00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:07,079
to pay attention to the NBA, by the way, because

1002
00:47:07,079 --> 00:47:09,360
I'm on an incredible sixty nine and forty eight NBA

1003
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:10,880
best bet run the last three and a half months.

1004
00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:13,079
I do have a strong play tonight in a different

1005
00:47:13,119 --> 00:47:14,719
game that we're not talking about. But we'll look at

1006
00:47:14,719 --> 00:47:17,400
one of the spotlight games here at seven forty Eastern

1007
00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:20,920
and that's the Phoenix Suns and the Boston Celtics. And

1008
00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:22,840
the lookhead line over night was as high as two

1009
00:47:22,960 --> 00:47:25,400
nineteen most books open around two fourteen and a half

1010
00:47:25,480 --> 00:47:27,400
two fifteen, so we really haven't seen a ton of

1011
00:47:27,440 --> 00:47:29,840
under money. But I do like the under in this game.

1012
00:47:29,840 --> 00:47:31,960
It's the lowest total on the board tonight out of

1013
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:34,920
the eight games, by quite a bit, almost ten points,

1014
00:47:35,199 --> 00:47:36,880
and for good reason. We always talk about the lowest

1015
00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:39,280
totals go under, the highest totals go over, and I

1016
00:47:39,280 --> 00:47:40,800
do think there's a merit to this one with the

1017
00:47:40,880 --> 00:47:43,039
under two fourteen and a half for a few reasons.

1018
00:47:43,280 --> 00:47:45,239
First of all, these teams played less than a month ago,

1019
00:47:45,320 --> 00:47:48,760
back on February twenty fourth at Phoenix, and the Suns

1020
00:47:48,800 --> 00:47:51,159
lost that game ninety seven eighty one one hundred and

1021
00:47:51,199 --> 00:47:53,760
seventy eight total points, and that total was only two

1022
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:56,400
oh six and a half. Slightly different lineups tonight, but

1023
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:59,320
still this total is nearly ten points higher after a

1024
00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:01,639
game total just one hundred and seventy eight points three

1025
00:48:01,679 --> 00:48:04,519
weeks ago, and there was nothing misleading about that. Phoenix

1026
00:48:04,519 --> 00:48:07,000
shot just thirty seven percent from the field, but they

1027
00:48:07,000 --> 00:48:09,960
held the Celtics to just forty percent shooting. Sun's also

1028
00:48:10,000 --> 00:48:13,159
coming off their worst defensive showing in the past month,

1029
00:48:13,239 --> 00:48:15,440
giving up fifty three and a half percent shooting at

1030
00:48:15,480 --> 00:48:18,880
Toronto on Friday. On Friday the thirteenth, one hundred and

1031
00:48:18,960 --> 00:48:21,360
twenty two points allowed. This is a team that had

1032
00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:24,400
allowed one hundred and ten or less than ten prior games,

1033
00:48:24,599 --> 00:48:26,519
and they gave up one twenty two. They also had

1034
00:48:26,559 --> 00:48:29,280
not allowed over fifty percent shooting except for twice in

1035
00:48:29,320 --> 00:48:31,440
those last ten games, and they did fifty three and

1036
00:48:31,440 --> 00:48:33,159
a half percent. So I do think it's bounced back

1037
00:48:33,199 --> 00:48:36,400
mode for the Phoenix Sun defense here, and the Celtics

1038
00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:38,719
are a solid defensive team as well in this game.

1039
00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:42,360
In fact, Boston on quite an underrun, going under seven

1040
00:48:42,440 --> 00:48:45,239
of their last eight games. Yet this is a basket

1041
00:48:45,239 --> 00:48:47,679
are ten points higher than the game at Phoenix that

1042
00:48:47,800 --> 00:48:50,000
was just one seventy eight. Let's not overthink it. Pun

1043
00:48:50,039 --> 00:48:53,519
intended will take the under two fourteen at seven to

1044
00:48:53,599 --> 00:48:57,199
forty eastern here on Monday night between the Suns and Celtics.

1045
00:48:57,639 --> 00:48:59,719
All right, your other game is also a time change.

1046
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:02,000
A lot of time changes tonight. This one's time changed

1047
00:49:02,039 --> 00:49:04,000
to nine to forty eastern, and I think that's because

1048
00:49:04,039 --> 00:49:07,119
it's one of the Peacock games on Peacock Streaming TV,

1049
00:49:07,159 --> 00:49:09,199
along with the Spurs and Clippers. We'll talk about this

1050
00:49:09,400 --> 00:49:12,840
LA game though, LA Lakers at the Houston Rockets perhaps

1051
00:49:12,880 --> 00:49:15,880
the best matchup on the board tonight on Monday, and

1052
00:49:15,920 --> 00:49:18,199
at least the initial injury report at twelve thirty Eastern,

1053
00:49:18,239 --> 00:49:20,639
both teams look healthy. We're not seeing any of the

1054
00:49:20,639 --> 00:49:22,239
big names for either line up on the board, so

1055
00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:25,320
it should be a clean handicap here. Lakers playing really

1056
00:49:25,320 --> 00:49:27,639
good basketball right now. And what's interesting to me is

1057
00:49:28,239 --> 00:49:30,360
the difference when Lebron James is on the quarter, not

1058
00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:31,880
on the court. As far as Don Chick and Austin

1059
00:49:31,920 --> 00:49:35,679
Reeves points scoring, these guys are routinely putting up thirty easy.

1060
00:49:36,079 --> 00:49:38,480
But then James, who's averaging twenty one points a game,

1061
00:49:38,519 --> 00:49:40,280
when he gets into the mix, and he has played

1062
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:43,440
forty six of the games this season, it does bump

1063
00:49:43,480 --> 00:49:45,480
those other guys down to the mid twenty range. So

1064
00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:48,280
hardly ever a time. I want to take Don Chic Hunter,

1065
00:49:48,360 --> 00:49:50,840
but he's coming off a monster game on the other

1066
00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:54,760
night against the Pelicans, and also of course against the

1067
00:49:54,960 --> 00:49:58,119
Nuggets was the big monster game for Houston. But we're

1068
00:49:58,119 --> 00:50:00,400
talking about the Lakers first. Lakers have won five straight,

1069
00:50:00,400 --> 00:50:02,239
eight of the last nine. I'm talking about that nugget

1070
00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:04,840
game that he had on National TV Saturday night went

1071
00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:08,079
to overtime. They won one twenty seven five. Donchiic hit

1072
00:50:08,119 --> 00:50:12,239
that fade away corner three unstoppable shot had a triple double.

1073
00:50:12,679 --> 00:50:15,480
Do we dare fade him with an underprop mould maybe

1074
00:50:15,519 --> 00:50:18,480
on assist or points. We'll see. I do think he's

1075
00:50:18,519 --> 00:50:20,480
getting a little pricey now, and once again, when Lebron

1076
00:50:20,599 --> 00:50:22,239
James is in the lineup, as he's expected to be

1077
00:50:22,280 --> 00:50:24,880
the night, Don Chick doesn't have to do quite as

1078
00:50:24,960 --> 00:50:28,159
much heavy listening. This also could be a potential fade

1079
00:50:28,199 --> 00:50:31,159
spot of the Lakers after that big win against Denver

1080
00:50:31,519 --> 00:50:34,400
on Saturday night and now traveling just one day's rest.

1081
00:50:34,440 --> 00:50:37,559
They also have a quick turnaround here at playing Houston

1082
00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:40,239
soon again, and as I mentioned, the Rockets coming off

1083
00:50:40,239 --> 00:50:42,480
the win against the Pelicans by to another narrow win

1084
00:50:42,599 --> 00:50:44,920
for them at home. They'd lost to the Nuggets the

1085
00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:48,679
game before that, one to ninety three. I think it's

1086
00:50:48,679 --> 00:50:51,519
probably a slightly better set up here for Houston at home.

1087
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:54,000
Lakers have been red hot as good as anybody in

1088
00:50:54,039 --> 00:50:56,079
the league here, winning five straight and eight of their

1089
00:50:56,159 --> 00:50:59,639
last nine, both straight up and against the spread. But

1090
00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:01,400
maybe it's a little bit of a cool off spot

1091
00:51:01,440 --> 00:51:03,000
here on the road, and as far as the total

1092
00:51:03,039 --> 00:51:06,079
goes in this one, the LA offense has been getting

1093
00:51:06,079 --> 00:51:08,480
it done. Defense has been a bit shaky. They're routinely

1094
00:51:08,519 --> 00:51:10,880
giving up forty six to forty seven percent shooting almost

1095
00:51:10,880 --> 00:51:13,320
every one of their recent games. Got a little fortunate

1096
00:51:13,320 --> 00:51:15,000
with the over on Saturday. That was the best bet

1097
00:51:15,000 --> 00:51:17,440
for my clients and we cast it. Obviously the overtime helped,

1098
00:51:18,119 --> 00:51:19,840
but this is still a Laker team that if they're

1099
00:51:19,880 --> 00:51:21,679
off a little bit defensively, I think Houston could do

1100
00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:24,119
some scoring tonight. So if I lean Houston, but I

1101
00:51:24,199 --> 00:51:25,960
still think the over might be in play. Hey, we

1102
00:51:25,960 --> 00:51:28,480
could look at a team total in this one. Rockets

1103
00:51:28,519 --> 00:51:31,599
team total up and over the one fourteen and a half,

1104
00:51:31,679 --> 00:51:34,639
Houston team total over one fourteen and a half at

1105
00:51:34,639 --> 00:51:37,400
home spotlight game tonight. I think the Rockets come to

1106
00:51:37,440 --> 00:51:39,239
play and they get there with the team total. And

1107
00:51:39,239 --> 00:51:40,960
by the way, they've only gone over this team total

1108
00:51:41,480 --> 00:51:44,239
once in the last six games, and that's why it's

1109
00:51:44,239 --> 00:51:46,039
as low as it is here one fourteen and a half.

1110
00:51:46,039 --> 00:51:47,199
But for a team, I think it's going to win

1111
00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:50,159
the game against a suspect defense that's not asking too much.

1112
00:51:50,199 --> 00:51:51,960
We'll look at Rocket team total up and over one

1113
00:51:52,039 --> 00:51:55,239
fourteen and a half. That's your peacock. I think NBC

1114
00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:57,280
Sports Net as well. Game at nine to forty Eastern

1115
00:51:57,519 --> 00:52:00,880
tonight on Monday. Quick reminder, we're talking NBA right now,

1116
00:52:00,920 --> 00:52:04,159
but the college basketball season that's about to explode March

1117
00:52:04,199 --> 00:52:06,960
Madness is here. Thursday and Friday. I will have probably

1118
00:52:06,960 --> 00:52:09,039
anywhere from six to ten best bets on the card

1119
00:52:09,239 --> 00:52:11,159
for the round of sixty four. It's always my heaviest

1120
00:52:11,239 --> 00:52:14,199
days of the year in college hoops. Also, n Action

1121
00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:17,719
starts tomorrow on Tuesday, first four playing games Tuesday and

1122
00:52:17,719 --> 00:52:20,440
Wednesday night. Not too late to get the rest of

1123
00:52:20,480 --> 00:52:23,960
the college basketball season for just one forty nine complete.

1124
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:26,519
And you know why, because it's the Dungeon Bonanza. I'm

1125
00:52:26,519 --> 00:52:29,719
shortening it every time because my throat's going out here singing,

1126
00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:32,519
But it's the Bonanza special. It's still available, and it's

1127
00:52:32,559 --> 00:52:36,199
also going to include my complete NC DOUBLEA tournament bracket

1128
00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:36,840
for free.

1129
00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:37,280
Speaker 5: That's right.

1130
00:52:37,320 --> 00:52:39,480
Speaker 8: That alone might be worth the one to forty nine

1131
00:52:39,480 --> 00:52:42,079
because you're getting selections in all sixty three games. I'm

1132
00:52:42,119 --> 00:52:44,360
not doing the playing games, so you got time, you

1133
00:52:44,400 --> 00:52:47,079
got until Thursday morning before that bracket goes, but you

1134
00:52:47,119 --> 00:52:49,719
will get that included when it's ready. My complete NCUBLEA

1135
00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:53,079
tournament bracket with all sixty three games, numerous first round

1136
00:52:53,119 --> 00:52:57,320
up sets, my National Champion selection, final four selections included

1137
00:52:57,360 --> 00:53:00,400
for free with the one forty nine Bananza special. Now

1138
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:02,440
that's a great offer, but as I mentioned, the NBA

1139
00:53:02,559 --> 00:53:04,840
is pretty hot sixty nine and forty eight the last

1140
00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:07,360
three and a half months, so I personally recommend an

1141
00:53:07,360 --> 00:53:10,519
all sport all access. Hey, the buy three days, get

1142
00:53:10,559 --> 00:53:12,559
three days free is still going. What a great time

1143
00:53:12,559 --> 00:53:14,719
to get on board with that because you can get

1144
00:53:14,719 --> 00:53:17,360
this entire week, which includes the whole first round also,

1145
00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:20,719
and oh yes, that includes the nc DOUBLEA tournament bracket

1146
00:53:20,719 --> 00:53:22,800
because it's included in the next six days. So the

1147
00:53:22,840 --> 00:53:25,480
buy three, get three for just sixty nine also gets

1148
00:53:25,519 --> 00:53:28,320

when I do every single NCUBA tournament game coming up

1158
00:53:54,199 --> 00:53:56,320
this week for free here in videos starting with the

1159
00:53:56,360 --> 00:53:57,880
first four games on Tuesday.

1160
00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:03,320
Speaker 1: Awesome stuff, Steve, great breakdowns appreciated. I'm actually on doncic

1161
00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:06,360
jover three now. We talked about his over three and

1162
00:54:06,360 --> 00:54:10,360
a half made threes. The insane stat that he's attempting fourteen.

1163
00:54:11,159 --> 00:54:13,159
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's what it's all about.

1164
00:54:14,000 --> 00:54:15,639
Speaker 4: It's just just wild.

1165
00:54:15,880 --> 00:54:18,519
Speaker 8: So yeah, it's a running gun team right now. Andy,

1166
00:54:18,559 --> 00:54:20,360
I mean, they're playing really good basketball when he made

1167
00:54:20,400 --> 00:54:22,599
out of nine, but I think that really you know,

1168
00:54:22,679 --> 00:54:24,599
as I said, the defensive stats when you look at

1169
00:54:24,679 --> 00:54:28,480
him are still very mediocre, but they've got some firepower.

1170
00:54:28,480 --> 00:54:30,800
I mean, Austin Reeves has come to become a superstar

1171
00:54:30,840 --> 00:54:32,599
as well. Out of dough. Hi, how you guys are

1172
00:54:32,679 --> 00:54:35,000
like this? So it's the highest points per game for

1173
00:54:35,039 --> 00:54:38,440
an undrafted player since nineteen eighty seven. Do you all

1174
00:54:38,440 --> 00:54:42,440
know who that player is? And I will give you

1175
00:54:42,440 --> 00:54:44,840
a hit. It was near the tail end of his career,

1176
00:54:44,880 --> 00:54:46,880
and I never would have thought this guy was undrafted.

1177
00:54:47,239 --> 00:54:48,840
He might be a Hall of Famer, but I'll give

1178
00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:51,000
you a clue. He might've been like the first high

1179
00:54:51,039 --> 00:54:52,880
school guy to go straight to the NBA. And Dan,

1180
00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:55,119
this one's coming close to your neck of the woods. Actually,

1181
00:54:56,320 --> 00:54:59,119
Moses Malone, Yes, yeah, I was surprised to see that.

1182
00:54:59,280 --> 00:55:01,559
I guess he was now draft they probably I didn't

1183
00:55:01,599 --> 00:55:03,239
look it up, and my guess would be there was

1184
00:55:03,239 --> 00:55:05,199
a supplemental or something back in the day, because I

1185
00:55:05,199 --> 00:55:06,800
don't think crazy you think of.

1186
00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:09,480
Speaker 2: His career, Wow, undrafted.

1187
00:55:09,039 --> 00:55:11,280
Speaker 8: At twenty four, but it's crazy also that he averaged

1188
00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:13,119
twenty four points a game. I think it was nineteen

1189
00:55:13,119 --> 00:55:15,599
eighty seven. Probably was with my bullets at the time,

1190
00:55:15,639 --> 00:55:17,880
if I'm not mistaken, and they were pretty horrendous, so

1191
00:55:18,519 --> 00:55:20,719
that would make sense. But that's yeah, that's how good

1192
00:55:20,760 --> 00:55:22,639
Austin Reeves is. Out of Oklahoma, of course, but he

1193
00:55:22,679 --> 00:55:25,480
was undrafted and he's averaging in the mid twenties. Wasn't

1194
00:55:25,519 --> 00:55:28,559
the thirties before he got hurt a month ago? Lebron,

1195
00:55:28,719 --> 00:55:31,039
how crazy is this the greatest player of all time?

1196
00:55:31,159 --> 00:55:34,719
Arguably Lebron James is only the third best player on

1197
00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:38,679
the court right now for the Lakers. He's over twenty

1198
00:55:38,679 --> 00:55:39,320
points a game.

1199
00:55:40,039 --> 00:55:40,280
Speaker 5: Still.

1200
00:55:40,360 --> 00:55:44,519
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, he's Grandpa Lebron at this point in his career.

1201
00:55:44,559 --> 00:55:49,719
Speaker 8: Paul Lebron. I can't play games after nine o'clock fade

1202
00:55:49,760 --> 00:55:51,800
the Lakers and I Grandpa James is playing that the

1203
00:55:51,800 --> 00:55:53,719
Tom Brady fack Brandy. I think you and I used

1204
00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:54,360
to talk about that.

1205
00:55:54,519 --> 00:55:55,159
Speaker 4: Yes he did.

1206
00:55:55,719 --> 00:55:58,000
Speaker 8: He wasn't a real thing. Monday Night football. Brady was

1207
00:55:58,039 --> 00:55:59,119
horrendous in the last year.

1208
00:55:59,239 --> 00:55:59,639
Speaker 2: Awful.

1209
00:56:00,159 --> 00:56:04,039
Speaker 8: It was terrible ida get into that stead.

1210
00:56:04,079 --> 00:56:06,920
Speaker 3: It might bet there wasn't enough out of avocado ice

1211
00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:08,840
cream in the world to get that man up for

1212
00:56:08,880 --> 00:56:09,519
a night game.

1213
00:56:09,679 --> 00:56:10,320
Speaker 8: Well that's the thing.

1214
00:56:10,320 --> 00:56:10,480
Speaker 5: Though.

1215
00:56:10,519 --> 00:56:12,920
Speaker 8: He had a real strict slip sleep routine, as you

1216
00:56:12,920 --> 00:56:15,519
guys know, and it be at like six ps correct

1217
00:56:15,559 --> 00:56:17,960
and like rubber suit, not eating tomatoes. So yeah, there

1218
00:56:18,039 --> 00:56:22,239
was something to that.

1219
00:56:22,840 --> 00:56:23,320
Speaker 2: Spot on.

1220
00:56:23,679 --> 00:56:25,960

1241
00:57:09,760 --> 00:57:11,280
