1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,279
Speaker 1: I welcome to Way did you talk today the Gold

2
00:00:03,319 --> 00:00:05,040
State at the sports betting shows where we talked the

3
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:08,080
Talk and walk the Walk to Monday breaking down the

4
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:12,240
craziness that is college basketball. We'll talk a little bit

5
00:00:12,240 --> 00:00:15,400
of NBA. We got some baseball free plays as well.

6
00:00:15,480 --> 00:00:18,480
Baseball season just getting started, so then you have three

7
00:00:18,719 --> 00:00:21,359
four game sample sides. We're starting to pick up here.

8
00:00:21,399 --> 00:00:24,600
So Dan had a nice little little weekend. We lost

9
00:00:24,600 --> 00:00:28,280
some big plays, but overall turned a three unit profit

10
00:00:28,399 --> 00:00:31,079
for clients over the weekend. So we're creeping up on

11
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:34,679
forty units for the year, which is yeah, really good.

12
00:00:34,719 --> 00:00:39,719
So were you watching live Dan the College of Basketball?

13
00:00:39,759 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 2: Of course? Of course, man, yeah it was.

14
00:00:41,560 --> 00:00:41,840
Speaker 3: It was.

15
00:00:42,079 --> 00:00:44,200
Speaker 4: I mean, once you get down to these few games,

16
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:47,439
you have to obviously be tuning in and be locked in,

17
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:48,600
and yeah it was.

18
00:00:48,679 --> 00:00:49,799
Speaker 2: It was exciting weekend.

19
00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,320
Speaker 4: You know, Duke ended up getting lucky, you know, at

20
00:00:52,359 --> 00:00:54,399
the the end of the game against.

21
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 2: Saint John's and then the luck ran out with the three.

22
00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:57,840
Speaker 5: That was big.

23
00:00:57,960 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 4: My favorite thing is if you watch the live reaction

24
00:01:00,119 --> 00:01:03,920
of Hurley and then the Duke basketball coach, two completely

25
00:01:03,920 --> 00:01:06,519
different worlds that was being lived in right there. You

26
00:01:06,719 --> 00:01:09,159
you always think about the winners on on those kind

27
00:01:09,200 --> 00:01:11,560
of plays, but getting the camera in the face of

28
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,400
of the losers there it was. It was a hell

29
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:16,840
of a weekend, man, hell of a weekend, indeed, And

30
00:01:17,159 --> 00:01:17,640
it's set.

31
00:01:17,879 --> 00:01:20,959
Speaker 2: Final four is set. And I think I'll tell you

32
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:22,719
what that Arizona.

33
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:27,280
Speaker 4: Michigan game, that's the pre that's that's the national championship game, right,

34
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,640
I mean, I don't see who's beaten neither of those

35
00:01:30,680 --> 00:01:31,239
two teams.

36
00:01:32,079 --> 00:01:36,040
Speaker 1: It's the general it's the general sentiment, I think. But

37
00:01:36,799 --> 00:01:40,120
you gotta be like, I would be terrified to say that,

38
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:44,200
because true, if they think that's the national Championship and

39
00:01:44,239 --> 00:01:48,840
they win, it's hard to get up for that next game,

40
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:50,120
like like it's.

41
00:01:51,239 --> 00:01:53,680
Speaker 2: Is still in the tournament. That's that's very fair. That

42
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:54,959
is very fair.

43
00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:55,959
Speaker 3: Yeah.

44
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:57,560
Speaker 1: Absolutely, who we got on today's show.

45
00:01:58,280 --> 00:02:00,799
Speaker 4: Yeah, man, we're locked and loaded on Monday show. Obviously,

46
00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:02,519
we'll do a little bit of recap with you in

47
00:02:02,560 --> 00:02:05,040
the comments here and comment below after the show goes live.

48
00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:07,640
But what is happening in the marketplace right now? Lines

49
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:11,280
are moving as we speak. Why is it happening? Yanni

50
00:02:11,319 --> 00:02:12,879
the Greek is gonna break that down, give you a

51
00:02:12,879 --> 00:02:17,400
little Steam Report. Crack Man, that's right, Bill Krackenberger, Mount

Rushmore Better is gonna give you an NBA prop for

53
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,759
free right here on the show. We're gonna get some

54
00:02:23,000 --> 00:02:25,680
thoughts from him from what we should see moving forward,

55
00:02:25,759 --> 00:02:28,479
and then we're ending it. I mean, heavy hitters galore

56
00:02:28,879 --> 00:02:31,439
on this show because Steve Merrill's coming on. He's gonna

57
00:02:31,439 --> 00:02:33,560
break down what he's seeing in March madness, what he

58
00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:37,039
thinks of these final four matchups. And he's got two

59
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:40,680
that's right, kind of two Celtics versus Hawks, Pistons versus

60
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:43,759
Thunder NBA winners coming your way on the show today.

61
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:45,599
Speaker 2: Andy's taking you all around the world.

62
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,159
Speaker 4: I'm trying to go three to zero picking a dog

63
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:50,759
on the MLB card that's.

64
00:02:50,520 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 2: Coming up your way here on the show. So Andy,

65
00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:54,319
nothing to it but.

66
00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:54,560
Speaker 5: To do it.

67
00:02:54,599 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 3: Brother.

68
00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,840
Speaker 2: Let's get into it, my friend.

69
00:02:57,439 --> 00:02:59,120
Speaker 1: All right, let's bring in Yanni.

70
00:02:59,280 --> 00:02:59,960
Speaker 3: The Greek.

71
00:03:02,199 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 1: People are already counting their money on their their parlays.

72
00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:11,159
Yesterday in college basketball, the Duke, the Duke Michigan and uh,

73
00:03:11,159 --> 00:03:13,840
it just didn't happen. So give a little recap here.

74
00:03:14,719 --> 00:03:17,319
I'm not really sure what the books did. The books

75
00:03:17,319 --> 00:03:19,599
do well books not do well with college basketball.

76
00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,599
Speaker 6: What was your take, Hey, yeah, they cleaned up because

77
00:03:22,599 --> 00:03:25,479
of that money line parlay that lost and excuse the look,

78
00:03:25,520 --> 00:03:26,479
it's by design.

79
00:03:26,599 --> 00:03:28,800
Speaker 7: After yesterday just got.

80
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:34,599
Speaker 6: Buried every every market we bet ended up losing, and

81
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:39,919
just one of those terrible, terrible days, and it was all. Uh,

82
00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:42,919
the cherry on top was Duke, which we had a

83
00:03:43,159 --> 00:03:46,479
future to win that break, you know, get to the

84
00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:50,479
final four and had a Duke money line bet as well,

85
00:03:51,039 --> 00:03:53,680
Uh yesterday, So it was just the cherry on top.

86
00:03:53,719 --> 00:03:57,080
And it shows you the randomness of one game. We

87
00:03:57,159 --> 00:03:59,639
talked about it all the time. How when you get

88
00:03:59,639 --> 00:04:03,199
to them one game final type of sports, the best

89
00:04:03,199 --> 00:04:06,879
team doesn't always win the championship. You don't have you know,

90
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,599
seven game series to where there's time for the cream

91
00:04:10,719 --> 00:04:13,080
to rise to the top. And that's how you get

92
00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:18,680
a team like Connecticut get in there, and which wasn't

93
00:04:18,959 --> 00:04:23,040
at least power rating wise, not a top ten team.

94
00:04:23,319 --> 00:04:26,959
You know, they play that game ten times, the results different.

95
00:04:26,959 --> 00:04:32,480
But that's why the risk management becomes so important. Because

96
00:04:32,519 --> 00:04:35,600
they don't play ten games. We have to handicap as

97
00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:39,800
if they do, but we know they won't. And that's

98
00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:44,120
the randomness of single sporting events, and we saw it

99
00:04:44,439 --> 00:04:46,439
play out yesterday. Again, if you were on the right

100
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:48,839
side of it, God bless you, was a nice score

101
00:04:48,959 --> 00:04:51,680
if you had the money line especially got a little lucky.

102
00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:54,959
But I'm sure you've had bad beats in your lifetime

103
00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:55,800
to offset it.

104
00:04:55,879 --> 00:04:56,519
Speaker 7: We all have.

105
00:04:57,360 --> 00:05:00,399
Speaker 6: So again, it's just another March madness. It happens every

106
00:05:00,439 --> 00:05:06,560
single day in the market. It's just when everyone's paying

107
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:10,759
attention to it, when the spotlight is on, it's it's

108
00:05:10,800 --> 00:05:13,079
a lot more, you know, it's more exciting.

109
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:14,079
Speaker 7: People talk about it more.

110
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,399
Speaker 6: But when you bet like we do every day, there's

111
00:05:17,439 --> 00:05:19,879
finishes more or less every other day like that.

112
00:05:20,040 --> 00:05:20,600
Speaker 7: You know what I mean.

113
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:26,079
Speaker 6: When you're talking all multiple markets, multiple final scores, we

114
00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:28,560
get that all the time. But again, it's great to

115
00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:32,360
see March madness and books ended up doing well because

116
00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:34,680
again it wiped down that parlay, which a lot of

117
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,160
recreational betters were on and a lot of sharp betters.

118
00:05:38,160 --> 00:05:40,319
Speaker 7: I saw, guys. I respect that. We're even like, how

119
00:05:40,319 --> 00:05:42,759
can you not play this parlay?

120
00:05:43,079 --> 00:05:45,920
Speaker 6: The Arizona and Duke arguably the best two teams both

121
00:05:45,920 --> 00:05:51,120
playing on the same day, and yeah, it just doesn't work.

122
00:05:51,160 --> 00:05:53,360
Speaker 7: Out that way always and you have what you have.

123
00:05:53,600 --> 00:05:57,480
Speaker 6: So Illinois, Connecticut, obviously Michigan or Arizona's going to be

124
00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:59,439
favored over either of those.

125
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:02,639
Speaker 7: I go off my power ratings.

126
00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:05,079
Speaker 6: I can tell you right now pretty much what the

127
00:06:05,120 --> 00:06:08,839
line should be because they've adjusted it. Now you see

128
00:06:08,839 --> 00:06:11,800
Michigan's one point favorite. So going in they would have

129
00:06:11,800 --> 00:06:16,399
probably had Arizona as the one point favorite, but the

130
00:06:16,439 --> 00:06:19,279
perception and the narratives changed a little bit, so you

131
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,360
see Michigan now is the one point favorite. Again, not

132
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:25,199
a big deal, but those two are arguably now one

133
00:06:25,240 --> 00:06:30,720
and two with Duke out of it. Where Illinois and Connecticut,

134
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:35,800
those are the more surprise team and either ill either

135
00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:41,959
Michigan or Arizona will be favored obviously over Illinois or Connecticut.

136
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:50,360
Speaker 7: Right now, I say I would make probably Arizona or

137
00:06:50,399 --> 00:06:52,000
Michigan at least.

138
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,120
Speaker 6: A two two and a half point favorite over Illinois,

139
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:59,680
and probably about a four point favorite. This is off

140
00:06:59,720 --> 00:07:01,839
the top in my head again looking at the power ratings,

141
00:07:01,879 --> 00:07:05,079
just playing power ratings, not individual matchups. About a four

142
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:10,199
point favorite over Connecticut I would make them. So we'll

143
00:07:10,199 --> 00:07:14,000
see what the sports books bring out once the final

144
00:07:14,040 --> 00:07:18,240
four gets played, but yeah, that's how I approach it,

145
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,839
and looking at these lines, there is some value in

146
00:07:21,879 --> 00:07:26,319
the final four based on some recency bias. We'll talk

147
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,319
about that again later in the week, and there's a

148
00:07:28,399 --> 00:07:31,759
bet on it tomorrow that we are taping. We'll dig

149
00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,639
into those games a little bit deeper, but known big

150
00:07:34,720 --> 00:07:38,560
moves early. Nothing really to report on either of those,

151
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:42,240
which tells you the look aheads were the probably on

152
00:07:42,399 --> 00:07:45,120
point with most power ratings. The only thing I did

153
00:07:45,160 --> 00:07:49,439
see was two and a half get bet with Illinois

154
00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,240
when that opened at two and a half. They took

155
00:07:51,240 --> 00:07:54,360
the two and a half with Connecticut, but a couple

156
00:07:54,439 --> 00:07:57,920
are back at two and a half. Anyway, as you know,

157
00:07:57,959 --> 00:08:00,800
you expect good two way action in that game. It'd

158
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:05,839
be interesting to see with Arizona and Michigan where the

159
00:08:05,839 --> 00:08:08,319
public money goes. I think it's probably gonna go on

160
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:13,160
Arizona if I had the guess, But we'll see.

161
00:08:13,199 --> 00:08:14,879
Speaker 7: We'll see nothing from the sharps yet.

162
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:20,600
Speaker 1: I mean, this is just my opinion. I call me crazy,

163
00:08:20,759 --> 00:08:23,920
but you're down to the final four. Is there really

164
00:08:23,959 --> 00:08:28,120
any value in these In these games? There's two games,

165
00:08:28,519 --> 00:08:30,639
it's the best team. The spreads are like minus two

166
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:32,799
and a half, like minus one and a half, like

167
00:08:33,159 --> 00:08:35,840
can you really get can you really have an edge?

168
00:08:36,399 --> 00:08:38,080
Speaker 2: And we're talking about it.

169
00:08:38,960 --> 00:08:41,159
Speaker 6: You could kind of draw that conclusion though, with with

170
00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:43,600
pretty much all sports when you get to the finals,

171
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:47,480
you know, the Super Bowl, the Major League Baseball, when

172
00:08:47,480 --> 00:08:50,200
you get to the final series, and you know, even

173
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:52,720
again in the sports we talked about with one game,

174
00:08:54,159 --> 00:08:57,200
because all the attentions on that game, the line's supposed

175
00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,360
to be as effiicient as possible, whereas late in the

176
00:08:59,399 --> 00:09:02,399
season all the information should be factored into the betting line.

177
00:09:02,440 --> 00:09:05,639
You're absolutely right that the numbers should be as efficient

178
00:09:05,840 --> 00:09:08,759
as possible. All the data is factored in. I mean,

179
00:09:08,759 --> 00:09:10,480
we have a big of a sample size from both

180
00:09:10,519 --> 00:09:13,200
teams as we possibly can have at this point of

181
00:09:13,240 --> 00:09:16,639
the season. So you're absolutely right the line should be

182
00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:20,559
accurate to where whether you bet Team A or Team B,

183
00:09:20,559 --> 00:09:23,600
by having lay eleven to win ten, we shouldn't be profitable,

184
00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,240
meaning neither side should get us to that fifty three

185
00:09:26,240 --> 00:09:29,120
to fifty four percent we need to be profitable.

186
00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:31,879
Speaker 7: But here's why that isn't.

187
00:09:31,639 --> 00:09:35,840
Speaker 6: The case, because if it was true, then we know

188
00:09:36,000 --> 00:09:38,759
that long term, the sportsbooks would only make about four

189
00:09:38,759 --> 00:09:42,240
and a half percent is the built in edges on

190
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:45,480
straight bets. But the reason they make more than that,

191
00:09:45,720 --> 00:09:49,879
even if we separate Parlay's teasers, is because odds makers

192
00:09:49,919 --> 00:09:53,600
are forced to shade the line towards biases. And the

193
00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,559
reason for that as obvious. Because as a book maker,

194
00:09:56,600 --> 00:09:59,759
you make money two ways. You're supposed to play the agent.

195
00:10:00,120 --> 00:10:02,159
As a book maker, you're not supposed to have an opinion.

196
00:10:02,320 --> 00:10:04,559
You're not supposed to care who wins or loses. You're

197
00:10:04,559 --> 00:10:07,159
supposed to play the agent. That's what makes it illegal.

198
00:10:07,519 --> 00:10:11,240
Because player A puts eleven to win ten, player B

199
00:10:11,360 --> 00:10:14,159
puts eleven to win ten. I take the dollar in

200
00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:16,960
the middle as the veig. That's what makes it illegal

201
00:10:17,480 --> 00:10:20,960
in other states where you know gambling is illegal. Otherwise,

202
00:10:21,039 --> 00:10:23,279
two people can make a contract and bet on the

203
00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:25,399
final four game for a million dollars and it's a

204
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:29,399
binding contract. Nothing makes it illegal. The illegality comes when

205
00:10:29,440 --> 00:10:33,039
that broker comes in and takes that vig. Okay, that's

206
00:10:33,080 --> 00:10:35,679
the book maker's job as being the agent. Now the

207
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:38,440
agent makes money by the vig. So how do you

208
00:10:38,519 --> 00:10:41,320
do that by balancing the action? Getting ten thousand on

209
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:44,440
this sign ten thousand on that sign twenty thousand gets bet.

210
00:10:44,639 --> 00:10:47,240
I make my thousand dollars veig four and a half

211
00:10:47,279 --> 00:10:48,320
close to five percent.

212
00:10:48,399 --> 00:10:50,919
Speaker 7: Let's say that's what I should be making.

213
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:55,120
Speaker 6: But it's impossible to balance that action ten thousand, ten thousand.

214
00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:57,799
So as a book maker, what am I forced to do?

215
00:10:58,240 --> 00:11:00,919
If I can't balance the action, I need to balance

216
00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:04,600
the result. I need to make sure that whether they

217
00:11:04,639 --> 00:11:07,919
bet side A or side B, it's not profitable to

218
00:11:08,039 --> 00:11:10,679
do that. I have to shade the line towards the

219
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:14,600
biases of the betters. That's where the inefficiency comes in,

220
00:11:15,080 --> 00:11:19,559
because you see, sometimes they're right, sometimes they're wrong, and

221
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,879
us as betters, that's where we can take advantage, even

222
00:11:23,919 --> 00:11:26,919
those times where it's a Final four, where it's a

223
00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:32,159
championship game, because they're forced to adjust the spread towards

224
00:11:32,639 --> 00:11:36,480
the market. And again not the not recreational betters. But

225
00:11:36,519 --> 00:11:40,320
we already know that factual, ninety nine point five percent

226
00:11:40,759 --> 00:11:44,320
of sports betting accounts have negative lifetime earnings. So any

227
00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:46,440
account that's ever been opened, ninety nine and a half

228
00:11:46,480 --> 00:11:50,399
percent of them have negative lifetime earnings. So not too

229
00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:53,639
many people are making money betting sports. We obviously know

230
00:11:53,759 --> 00:11:57,480
that and it's an unsophisticated market.

231
00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:01,120
Speaker 7: And because of that, the ficticated half.

232
00:12:00,879 --> 00:12:04,480
Speaker 6: Percent able to find some of those inefficiencies even in

233
00:12:04,519 --> 00:12:07,080
a championship game, because rest of short, this line's going

234
00:12:07,159 --> 00:12:09,120
to move, the total's going to move, the side's going

235
00:12:09,159 --> 00:12:11,519
to move between now and tip off. That's what's going

236
00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:14,440
to show you the inefficiency. If it doesn't move at all,

237
00:12:14,639 --> 00:12:17,840
then rest asshured. You're absolutely right and there's zero value

238
00:12:17,879 --> 00:12:20,559
to be had. But I think we're going to see

239
00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:22,879
some line movement, if not on both these games. I

240
00:12:22,919 --> 00:12:24,720
think on one of these games we will see some

241
00:12:24,799 --> 00:12:28,679
line movement. And again I may be wrong, but I

242
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:31,879
do think we will. And again we'll see what the

243
00:12:31,919 --> 00:12:34,799
market decides. But that's what it comes down to. You know,

244
00:12:34,919 --> 00:12:38,919
everyone's got an opinion, whether it's right or wrong, and

245
00:12:39,279 --> 00:12:41,480
the books could be wrong more than they're right because

246
00:12:41,519 --> 00:12:43,720
they get eleven to ten. We have to be right

247
00:12:43,759 --> 00:12:46,399
more than we're wrong because we lay eleven to ten.

248
00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:49,919
Speaker 7: So we got to be a little more discipline when

249
00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:51,240
we throw out our opinions.

250
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:58,559
Speaker 1: Let's move to baseball. My favorite stat, my favorite betting stat.

251
00:12:58,679 --> 00:13:01,879
So far, through three games, the Colorado Rockies are zero

252
00:13:01,919 --> 00:13:05,240
and three but they're three and oh on the run line,

253
00:13:05,840 --> 00:13:06,919
they've lost three games.

254
00:13:06,960 --> 00:13:07,759
Speaker 2: But that's rocky.

255
00:13:08,120 --> 00:13:12,720
Speaker 4: That's rocky baseball for you.

256
00:13:12,759 --> 00:13:17,879
Speaker 1: That kick quick, get that win. Only a few games

257
00:13:17,879 --> 00:13:19,639
in here, Yanni, what are you seeing in baseball?

258
00:13:19,759 --> 00:13:20,639
Speaker 7: Yeah?

259
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:24,720
Speaker 6: I got a couple of the National League because that's

260
00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,159
what I'll do. I'll narrow down for the early because

261
00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:31,120
then the steam sheet will have, you know, more of

262
00:13:31,159 --> 00:13:34,279
the volume. But I'm trying to narrow down now even

263
00:13:34,399 --> 00:13:39,279
the strongest of those plays in the accounts for the

264
00:13:39,320 --> 00:13:44,240
steam sheet to give them even little less volume more

265
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:48,720
r O I. So here's some of the National League,

266
00:13:49,559 --> 00:13:53,919
uh moves already that are legit nine oh three under

267
00:13:54,039 --> 00:13:57,639
eight Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, nine oh seven over seven and a

268
00:13:57,679 --> 00:14:01,879
half and even over eight on San Francisco, San Diego

269
00:14:02,200 --> 00:14:05,559
in nine oh seven San Francisco plus one twenty then

270
00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:09,120
follow through at plus one ten on San Francisco. That's

271
00:14:09,159 --> 00:14:11,919
it in the NL that I think is legit up

272
00:14:11,960 --> 00:14:16,200
till now. It's real early. NBA still a little early there,

273
00:14:16,759 --> 00:14:20,720
but two plays that are legit in five sixty Atlanta

274
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:25,879
minus the one and five sixty four over two forty

275
00:14:25,879 --> 00:14:30,279
two Chicago and the San Antonio spurs again coming off

276
00:14:30,279 --> 00:14:34,200
an ass kicking like I had yesterday. Got to tighten

277
00:14:34,320 --> 00:14:38,200
up the reins and get back to grinding. This is

278
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,039
probably the best time coming off a cold stretch and

279
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:45,759
now have to rebuild. But you got to deal with

280
00:14:45,759 --> 00:14:48,960
that variant as the sports better. And right now myself

281
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:50,840
and the guys that are teamed up with me for

282
00:14:50,879 --> 00:14:53,159
twenty twenty six are dealing with it.

283
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:55,279
Speaker 7: And this is where you find out what you're built for.

284
00:14:55,879 --> 00:14:58,639
Speaker 6: If you manage risk correctly, we'll get through it in

285
00:14:58,759 --> 00:15:01,720
time to turn a profit. If not, got to revisit

286
00:15:01,759 --> 00:15:04,120
that thesis and try to do it the right way

287
00:15:04,480 --> 00:15:07,279
once again. You know, we all get there where we

288
00:15:07,320 --> 00:15:10,159
make mistakes and over bet and every morning we have

289
00:15:10,240 --> 00:15:13,159
the opportunity to do it the right way. So today's

290
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:15,399
an opportunity to do that for all of us.

291
00:15:16,519 --> 00:15:20,120
Speaker 1: Any I'm surely there's no changing in your MLB power rankings.

292
00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:23,039
You're probably just taking in some taking in some information

293
00:15:23,200 --> 00:15:26,720
and kind of looking at it. What what teams do

294
00:15:26,759 --> 00:15:28,759
you have like power rated? Are their teams you're interested

295
00:15:28,799 --> 00:15:31,480
in betting on? Are you just absorbing info right now?

296
00:15:32,399 --> 00:15:33,360
Speaker 7: Exactly right now?

297
00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:38,639
Speaker 6: It's all about gathering information obviously, I have the Dodgers

298
00:15:38,639 --> 00:15:41,120
as my number one power rated team, and I have

299
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:43,960
the Rockies as my thirtieth power rated team. My top

300
00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:46,519
five right now, I can tell you already that I

301
00:15:46,679 --> 00:15:49,240
have the guy that I trust that puts my power

302
00:15:49,320 --> 00:15:51,639
rates together that I bet off of. He needs at

303
00:15:51,759 --> 00:15:54,559
least he's saying twenty twenty five games. He's like, that's

304
00:15:54,600 --> 00:15:57,480
two college football seasons. That's more than enough for me

305
00:15:57,559 --> 00:16:02,759
to feel confident to start giving you some implied win

306
00:16:02,840 --> 00:16:06,399
probabilities for each matchup. So my top five I have

307
00:16:06,679 --> 00:16:10,360
are Dodgers obviously number one. They would be favored over

308
00:16:10,399 --> 00:16:13,159
the Yankees. They would be favored over the Brewers, they

309
00:16:13,159 --> 00:16:15,080
would be favored over the Phillies, and they would be

310
00:16:15,120 --> 00:16:17,120
favored over the Blue Jays. I think those are the

311
00:16:17,159 --> 00:16:20,960
five best teams in Major League Baseball. I'll say it again.

312
00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:24,279
Three are in the NL that's the Dodgers, the Brewers,

313
00:16:24,399 --> 00:16:25,080
and the Phillies.

314
00:16:25,519 --> 00:16:26,679
Speaker 7: Two of them are.

315
00:16:26,519 --> 00:16:30,399
Speaker 6: In the AL same division, that's the Yankees in the

316
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:34,200
Blue Jays, and what do you know, the third best

317
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:37,679
AL team is the Red Sox. So that Al East

318
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:40,000
is gonna have to figure itself out, at least according

319
00:16:40,039 --> 00:16:42,159
to my power ratings. And yes, I know the Phillies

320
00:16:42,159 --> 00:16:44,960
are one and two, but they're still a top five team,

321
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:47,320
just like the Cubs. They're in my top ten, red

322
00:16:47,399 --> 00:16:49,840
Sox in my top ten, Padres in my top ten.

323
00:16:50,440 --> 00:16:52,519
But some of the Phonies, I'll tell you right now,

324
00:16:52,559 --> 00:16:55,440
the Marlins they're three and zero. That's not gonna last.

325
00:16:55,679 --> 00:16:59,240
They're a bottom five team. Cardinals two in one, that's

326
00:16:59,279 --> 00:17:02,360
not gonna last. They're a bottom ten team. Orioles two

327
00:17:02,399 --> 00:17:05,519
and one, that's not gonna last. They're a bottom ten team.

328
00:17:05,799 --> 00:17:06,079
Speaker 7: Again.

329
00:17:06,240 --> 00:17:09,920
Speaker 6: Is they're gonna regressing gonna happen overnight? Probably not, but

330
00:17:10,039 --> 00:17:12,319
it is gonna happen. We talked about it last.

331
00:17:12,119 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 7: Season, before the year. Let's wait a call.

332
00:17:14,599 --> 00:17:16,319
Speaker 6: Let's wait a week or two, Andy, and we'll start

333
00:17:16,319 --> 00:17:19,400
talking about these teams that won seventy percent of their games,

334
00:17:19,799 --> 00:17:23,680
that won't sustain that for very much longer. Detroit Tigers

335
00:17:23,759 --> 00:17:26,880
last year. And we'll find a couple of gems to

336
00:17:27,119 --> 00:17:28,880
follow or fade over the next couple of weeks.

337
00:17:28,920 --> 00:17:29,279
Speaker 1: For sure.

338
00:17:30,000 --> 00:17:33,200
Speaker 4: Can you can you think of anything that matters less

339
00:17:33,519 --> 00:17:36,200
than this team is one in two to start the

340
00:17:36,319 --> 00:17:38,519
MLB season, and this team is three and zero.

341
00:17:38,759 --> 00:17:39,119
Speaker 2: I can't.

342
00:17:39,119 --> 00:17:42,160
Speaker 4: I'm hard pressed to think of anything that matters less

343
00:17:42,319 --> 00:17:45,039
in sports better than who won their opening weekend set.

344
00:17:45,599 --> 00:17:47,680
Speaker 7: Now, maybe maybe preseason baseball.

345
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's fair. Yesringly, this looked real good.

346
00:17:52,359 --> 00:17:56,160
Speaker 6: I've never looked that has I've never looked at them,

347
00:17:56,200 --> 00:17:57,000
so I don't know.

348
00:17:59,200 --> 00:18:02,200
Speaker 1: Well, Yanni, to your point, the Marlins, they're three and oh,

349
00:18:02,279 --> 00:18:04,160
but they're also zero and three on the run line.

350
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:07,759
They've won their games by one run, so like razor

351
00:18:07,799 --> 00:18:10,960
thin edge there. So all right, Yanni, what do you

352
00:18:11,000 --> 00:18:12,319
have up for everybody on this Monday?

353
00:18:12,799 --> 00:18:15,000
Speaker 6: As soon as I jump off here, because I said,

354
00:18:15,079 --> 00:18:16,799
when you come off and ask kicking like that, you

355
00:18:16,880 --> 00:18:18,960
gotta be straight and honest with yourself. I tell you

356
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:20,480
when I went, and I tell you when I lose.

357
00:18:20,960 --> 00:18:23,640
And we were sitting nicely, got out way ahead in January,

358
00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:26,920
sitting nicely in February and March, and the last week

359
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,440
ten days of March, madness has kicked my ass. And

360
00:18:30,519 --> 00:18:33,720
it's all come from my own stuff, ninety percent my

361
00:18:33,720 --> 00:18:35,920
own stuff, just like I did in college football. Once

362
00:18:35,960 --> 00:18:38,480
we get to the bowl games. I said it then

363
00:18:38,519 --> 00:18:40,480
and I'll say it again. The betting syn kids don't

364
00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:42,480
do a lot of sides, a lot of totals. It's

365
00:18:42,519 --> 00:18:46,799
mostly derivatives. So I step in and trust the numbers.

366
00:18:46,839 --> 00:18:49,119
And we crushed the bowl season. We crushed the college

367
00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,720
football playoffs and even March Madness up until this last

368
00:18:52,759 --> 00:18:56,920
weekend or Sat Sunday at least. So when that happens,

369
00:18:57,079 --> 00:18:59,480
got to tighten up a little bit, the steam sheet.

370
00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 7: Will be up and that's it. I'm not going to

371
00:19:00,759 --> 00:19:01,559
put a package out.

372
00:19:01,599 --> 00:19:04,359
Speaker 6: Subscribers are going to get that, uh and even four

373
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:07,400
percents and stuff because we got to grind back. So

374
00:19:07,759 --> 00:19:10,480
April's right around the corner, just a day or so ahead,

375
00:19:10,920 --> 00:19:13,799
and uh, we'll have action throughout the week because a

376
00:19:13,799 --> 00:19:17,440
lot's coming up. We got UFC on Saturday, Final Four

377
00:19:17,599 --> 00:19:20,160
on Saturday, and between now and then we'll be doing baseball,

378
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:24,519
NBA college basketball because the n it. And don't forget,

379
00:19:24,599 --> 00:19:27,559
I have three tennis bets. Two of them are four percent.

380
00:19:27,960 --> 00:19:29,720
Probably gave one or two of them out for free

381
00:19:29,720 --> 00:19:31,240
as well, So make sure you go to wager talk

382
00:19:31,279 --> 00:19:34,720
dot com every day for those. Thanks Andy, and hope

383
00:19:34,720 --> 00:19:38,119
you guys do some damage this weekend man and this

384
00:19:38,240 --> 00:19:39,400
week keep keep killing it.

385
00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:39,640
Speaker 7: Dan.

386
00:19:39,680 --> 00:19:43,880
Speaker 1: Thank you, yeah, absolutely, thank you very much, Johannie, appreciate you. Thanks,

387
00:19:43,920 --> 00:19:49,119
have a big, big Monday. Uh, Dan, you're insane. Lacrosse

388
00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:54,880
run continues, I mean twenty one and.

389
00:19:55,000 --> 00:19:57,200
Speaker 4: I don't want to bet those kind of sports though, Andy,

390
00:19:57,279 --> 00:19:59,200
I don't want to win in sports that you can

391
00:19:59,240 --> 00:19:59,640
win in.

392
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:02,160
Speaker 1: You know, you know what I mean, twenty one in

393
00:20:02,319 --> 00:20:04,119
eight is truly insane.

394
00:20:04,160 --> 00:20:04,359
Speaker 3: Man.

395
00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:07,359
Speaker 1: What you've done is pretty incredible.

396
00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:11,680
Speaker 4: So that's what that's what we that's what we've set

397
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:13,839
out to do, you know what I mean, Like we've

398
00:20:13,839 --> 00:20:16,079
been super selective. Like I think this last week we

399
00:20:16,119 --> 00:20:17,920
had what two plays and we end up going to

400
00:20:18,079 --> 00:20:20,680
and uh, you know, but we're rating them high because

401
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:22,079
we're seeing it really well.

402
00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:24,240
Speaker 2: So we had another rocking chair winner.

403
00:20:24,279 --> 00:20:24,519
Speaker 3: Guys.

404
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:26,279
Speaker 2: This was a team that has.

405
00:20:26,160 --> 00:20:28,319
Speaker 4: Been scoring up and down on the field. In the

406
00:20:28,359 --> 00:20:30,759
Virginia Cavaliers. We knew they were playing Notre Dame. We

407
00:20:30,799 --> 00:20:32,519
knew Notre Dame wanted to slow it down, and Notre

408
00:20:32,599 --> 00:20:34,640
Dame slowing it down bit him in the ass. We

409
00:20:34,640 --> 00:20:36,480
also leaned with the dog in that game. They went

410
00:20:36,519 --> 00:20:36,960
out right.

411
00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:39,079
Speaker 2: So rocking chair winners, guys.

412
00:20:39,279 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 4: I mean, I cannot guarantee obviously that's going to happen Andy,

413
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:45,960
But we've been really selective. We've been really solid. We

414
00:20:46,000 --> 00:20:48,720
still have that thirty day lacrosse pass pack up, but

415
00:20:48,799 --> 00:20:52,079
Andy baseball has been great for us out of the gate.

416
00:20:52,119 --> 00:20:54,960
I know it's early on, but all access is the

417
00:20:55,039 --> 00:20:56,319
name of the game because these are the kind of

418
00:20:56,319 --> 00:20:59,640
sports that you're betting, and we're dabbling in baseball this year,

419
00:20:59,680 --> 00:21:01,480
so you're gonna get the sport you want to bet

420
00:21:01,519 --> 00:21:03,240
to when you go all access with us.

421
00:21:04,079 --> 00:21:06,880
Speaker 1: Yeah we're doing excuse me, yeah, we're doing a little

422
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:10,599
bit more than dabbling. We're all in on baseball with

423
00:21:10,680 --> 00:21:13,279
props inside. So we're up three units to start the year.

424
00:21:13,279 --> 00:21:15,440
We got a four percent prop that is up and

425
00:21:15,480 --> 00:21:18,279
there's two props that are involved in that package, so

426
00:21:18,319 --> 00:21:18,720
you want that.

427
00:21:18,799 --> 00:21:19,240
Speaker 5: We got that.

428
00:21:19,279 --> 00:21:21,440
Speaker 1: We have a four percent darts play that's up that

429
00:21:21,519 --> 00:21:24,319
goes off on Thursday. So get any of those packages,

430
00:21:24,359 --> 00:21:26,400
guys on the specials page and you get every single

431
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,839
one of our plays. So we got good hockey, good NBA.

432
00:21:30,200 --> 00:21:33,359
So the Specials page invest long term and shout out

433
00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:35,400
to the winning in the Shadows family. You guys, all

434
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:38,400
Access clients really good. We want to be up. We're

435
00:21:38,440 --> 00:21:41,160
are my goal is ten units each month. That way

436
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:42,799
I can be up one hundred and twenty units at

437
00:21:42,799 --> 00:21:45,759
the end of the year. Excuse me, Yeah, We're We're

438
00:21:45,759 --> 00:21:49,079
head a schedule at thirty nine units. So love to

439
00:21:49,079 --> 00:21:52,039
close out March with a just if we have winning day,

440
00:21:52,640 --> 00:21:54,640
bang we get up over that forty units. How does

441
00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,079
Dan not get super limited betting on the cross?

442
00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,039
Speaker 4: This is something Andy that we've we've touched upon, and

443
00:22:00,599 --> 00:22:02,319
you know, we'll talk with Bill here too. A lot

444
00:22:02,319 --> 00:22:04,000
of these books they want to throw out you if

445
00:22:04,000 --> 00:22:06,039
you're a winning sports better and and how do you

446
00:22:06,119 --> 00:22:09,319
stay that off? You stay that off by attacking it

447
00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:11,680
a couple of different ways. I'm not only betting lacrosse

448
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,079
on a specific book, I'm also shopping around and betting

449
00:22:14,079 --> 00:22:15,279
it at other books.

450
00:22:15,279 --> 00:22:18,440
Speaker 2: I don't go all in on one side. I'm also if.

451
00:22:18,279 --> 00:22:21,240
Speaker 4: A book screws up and they really have an awful total,

452
00:22:21,960 --> 00:22:25,359
I'm personally not emptying my whole entire you know, clip,

453
00:22:25,440 --> 00:22:27,440
even though I know it's probably a great winner, because

454
00:22:27,440 --> 00:22:29,480
then I can't bet there anymore. So there's a couple

455
00:22:29,519 --> 00:22:31,880
of different ways that you can attack it. But I mean,

456
00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:33,839
Bill will come on here and tell you, guys, like

457
00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:36,240
when you win, they don't want you, you know what

458
00:22:36,279 --> 00:22:37,920
I mean. So you have to attack it a couple

459
00:22:37,880 --> 00:22:39,720
of different ways. The other way that I go throw

460
00:22:39,759 --> 00:22:42,319
in some donkey plays. We talked about this on Friday, Andy,

461
00:22:42,559 --> 00:22:45,359
I'll throw in some dumb parlays. You know, I let

462
00:22:45,359 --> 00:22:47,839
my bank roll allow for it, and you know, you

463
00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:49,720
throw in some cross sport ones. You just throw in

464
00:22:49,759 --> 00:22:52,680
some real long shot ones and play some of the

465
00:22:53,319 --> 00:22:55,279
you know, the promos that they give you the really

466
00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:59,200
bad bets. Unfortunately, guys, you have to maybe maybe manage

467
00:22:59,240 --> 00:23:01,640
your bankroll to a out for that. If you're a

468
00:23:02,160 --> 00:23:04,559
casual better someone who's trying to take this a little

469
00:23:04,559 --> 00:23:06,279
bit more serious, and you don't want to not be

470
00:23:06,319 --> 00:23:07,759
able to bet at a book anymore, because there are

471
00:23:07,839 --> 00:23:09,599
books I can't bet lacrosse at anymore.

472
00:23:09,759 --> 00:23:10,680
Speaker 5: And then you just move.

473
00:23:10,559 --> 00:23:13,519
Speaker 2: On, you know, have as many hours as possible. That's

474
00:23:13,519 --> 00:23:14,799
step one, you know.

475
00:23:15,039 --> 00:23:17,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, figure out what their limit is and don't bet.

476
00:23:17,720 --> 00:23:21,039
Don't bet that limit. So if they're only if they

477
00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,599
if you've noticed that five hundred is their limit, and

478
00:23:24,599 --> 00:23:26,200
you can look it up and you can even ask

479
00:23:26,240 --> 00:23:28,240
them like, hey, what's the limit on this sport? So

480
00:23:28,279 --> 00:23:31,240
if lacrosse is five hundred dollars. You're not betting five

481
00:23:31,319 --> 00:23:34,400
hundred bucks. You're betting to fifty at two different books,

482
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,400
even if you get even if you get a worse price.

483
00:23:37,599 --> 00:23:41,160
So agreed, let's a coupleys do it. Let's bring in Bill.

484
00:23:41,359 --> 00:23:44,160
And this is a really good segue here, Bill, we're

485
00:23:44,279 --> 00:23:46,920
talking about how do you not hear? Dan's been Yeah,

486
00:23:47,000 --> 00:23:49,480
Dan's been crushing lacrosse. And you're asked, well, how do

487
00:23:49,480 --> 00:23:51,640
you not get limited with some of those sports? What's

488
00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:52,160
your advice?

489
00:23:54,319 --> 00:23:57,119
Speaker 3: You guys say, have as many books as possible, have

490
00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:00,640
as many beards that you trust that'll pay you good point.

491
00:24:01,039 --> 00:24:03,759
I am a guy that I am openly saying on

492
00:24:03,839 --> 00:24:07,559
many shows. I know books frown upon it, but players

493
00:24:07,599 --> 00:24:11,119
like me frown upon you're throwing me out, So I'm

494
00:24:11,160 --> 00:24:15,480
going to I hate giving any kind of action that

495
00:24:15,720 --> 00:24:20,880
is unnecessary. However, However, if you're playing with a local,

496
00:24:21,440 --> 00:24:23,640
don't I understand you only have so many locals that

497
00:24:23,799 --> 00:24:26,279
that you could trust. You know, everyone thinks they're a

498
00:24:26,279 --> 00:24:28,559
book maker. Today, you walk up to a poker room

499
00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:30,759
and every table has at least one book maker or

500
00:24:30,759 --> 00:24:34,279
a so called bookmaker in it. So what you want

501
00:24:34,319 --> 00:24:36,519
to do with a local, you want to make sure

502
00:24:36,559 --> 00:24:40,440
you give him action on Sunday NFL season. What I'm

503
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,000
saying is you're not going to, you know, bust them

504
00:24:43,039 --> 00:24:48,559
all on NFL props and college football and not give

505
00:24:48,599 --> 00:24:51,799
any straight action on Sunday. Now, I'll even tell you

506
00:24:51,799 --> 00:24:55,200
what to give. You don't have to know anything. You

507
00:24:55,279 --> 00:24:58,640
just have to look for even a four minus four

508
00:24:58,799 --> 00:25:01,480
someplace at one of your locals, and maybe one of

509
00:25:01,519 --> 00:25:02,880
your apps or one of your other guys has a

510
00:25:02,920 --> 00:25:05,240
four and a half. Listen, it's not worth the middle

511
00:25:05,279 --> 00:25:09,160
and financially, but it's worth it for the longevity of

512
00:25:09,240 --> 00:25:12,000
the account to lay the four and take the four

513
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,640
and a half somewhere else, just to have that side

514
00:25:16,200 --> 00:25:19,000
in a NFL account that you're betting with a local

515
00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:20,359
guy that could say, you know, you don't really give

516
00:25:20,359 --> 00:25:23,960
any any action on Sunday football, but you want to

517
00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:28,039
bet NFL props, college football and whatever else during the week,

518
00:25:28,160 --> 00:25:30,519
maybe some of these obscure kind of sports like you're

519
00:25:30,559 --> 00:25:33,839
talking about, So you want to make the account look

520
00:25:33,839 --> 00:25:36,799
good as far as the the brick and mortar the

521
00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:40,359
app center out there, Maybe it's worth it. If you're

522
00:25:40,799 --> 00:25:43,039
if you're betting one hundred dollars or more a game,

523
00:25:43,599 --> 00:25:47,279
maybe it's worth to throw a one dollar that's right,

524
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:51,240
one dollar six seven, eight nine team, or you know,

525
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:53,240
just just to make it. If you're gonna lose it,

526
00:25:53,279 --> 00:25:55,000
you're gonna lose. Long term, you're gonna lose it. But

527
00:25:55,759 --> 00:25:57,880
maybe someone looks in the account says, wow, this guy

528
00:25:57,880 --> 00:26:00,559
puts you know, all these parlors and does and realize

529
00:26:00,559 --> 00:26:03,319
you're putting a dollar on five of them. But you're

530
00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:07,880
just a mentality of betting parlays. Possibly that'll give you

531
00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:12,440
some more longevity in the accounts. But I just try

532
00:26:12,480 --> 00:26:14,160
to get someone else to bet that I know that

533
00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,279
they can bet in there. And now you don't know.

534
00:26:16,319 --> 00:26:18,920
It's Bill Krackenberger betting, and we just try to grind

535
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:23,119
out a few thousand bucks before we're limited or thrown out.

536
00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:25,920
But then then you have to run into the problem

537
00:26:25,960 --> 00:26:29,119
where you have to hope that that person doesn't have

538
00:26:29,440 --> 00:26:32,720
any vices, one of which gambling. Because I've been stuck

539
00:26:32,759 --> 00:26:35,720
a lot of money from people that literally come to

540
00:26:35,759 --> 00:26:38,480
me with crocodile tears and I just had it happen.

541
00:26:38,799 --> 00:26:41,759
Someone said, I relapsed. That's what someone just told me.

542
00:26:41,920 --> 00:26:44,880
I thought relapse was drinking or drugs, but obviously in

543
00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,519
his world, relapses gambling. And I said, how do you relapse?

544
00:26:50,119 --> 00:26:54,079
You're in a casino all the time, which relapsed me? Losing?

545
00:26:54,200 --> 00:26:57,640
Is that what relapsed? I relapsed? I went into your money.

546
00:26:57,920 --> 00:27:00,799
I don't even know. You know, just the things you

547
00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:06,559
have to overcome. Being a pro gambler that makes money

548
00:27:06,559 --> 00:27:09,880
betting sports is amazing. People think it's just all sunshine,

549
00:27:09,960 --> 00:27:14,039
rainbows and lollipops, and that's absolutely not. You're dealing with

550
00:27:14,160 --> 00:27:18,279
total treachery. That's right treachery when you're when you're dealing

551
00:27:18,319 --> 00:27:21,799
with people, you know, the human nature, the human condition.

552
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:23,799
You have to know who you're dealing with. How many

553
00:27:23,799 --> 00:27:27,000
people I've I dealt with that jumped over a dollar

554
00:27:27,079 --> 00:27:31,200
bill to steal a little penny. I mean, you're gonna

555
00:27:31,200 --> 00:27:33,200
make money long term with me. I'm gonna go off

556
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:35,920
into the tangents here that I'm not planning. So you're

557
00:27:35,960 --> 00:27:37,880
gonna make money long term with me. But now you

558
00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:41,119
decide to steal and that happens a lot, and you

559
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:45,240
know it's part of the business. But it's funny we

560
00:27:45,279 --> 00:27:48,519
talk about that. I was looking at so I'm looking at.

561
00:27:48,519 --> 00:27:51,960
This is DraftKings. This is DraftKings. I'm looking at right now.

562
00:27:51,960 --> 00:27:54,240
Of course, we can't bet it here in Nevada, and

563
00:27:54,720 --> 00:27:56,839
I can't bet it anyway. I can only I can't

564
00:27:56,839 --> 00:27:58,359
bet the app they for. They were very good to

565
00:27:58,400 --> 00:28:01,240
be though. Just to be fair, the Raftkings was very

566
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,480
very good to me. I want a bunch of money

567
00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:07,759
on bean Chero in the beginning, and they paid me

568
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:09,519
a lot. They put up it a lot for me,

569
00:28:09,519 --> 00:28:10,680
and now I said, I put up it a lot.

570
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:13,839
They took my bet and I posted money.

571
00:28:13,599 --> 00:28:14,440
Speaker 5: And they took my bet.

572
00:28:14,720 --> 00:28:17,359
Speaker 3: Okay, if that's a lot.

573
00:28:16,279 --> 00:28:20,079
Speaker 2: In the bars on the ground, yeah so uh, But

574
00:28:20,160 --> 00:28:20,440
I won.

575
00:28:20,599 --> 00:28:24,640
Speaker 3: I actually cracked them for a healthy six figures on

576
00:28:24,799 --> 00:28:27,440
ban Chero. And then I want a golf future. I

577
00:28:27,480 --> 00:28:29,480
want one hundred and eighty the one future there too.

578
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:31,279
That was the end of it. Though I bet four hundred.

579
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:33,240
I think it was a win seventy two thousand. Anyway,

580
00:28:33,440 --> 00:28:35,079
that was the end of it with them. They threw

581
00:28:35,119 --> 00:28:37,960
me out then. And even the guy Johnavello who's over there,

582
00:28:38,319 --> 00:28:41,079
he wants nothing to do with me. And you know

583
00:28:41,440 --> 00:28:43,960
I knew John from the win years ago. But you

584
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:46,160
know it's the same thing. And now I was allowed

585
00:28:46,160 --> 00:28:48,920
to bet at the counter up to one thousand. And

586
00:28:48,920 --> 00:28:50,759
then I did my VS AND show on Thursday and

587
00:28:50,759 --> 00:28:52,559
I said something bad about them. All I did was,

588
00:28:52,960 --> 00:28:55,359
you know, talk about their new rule. And they called

589
00:28:55,359 --> 00:28:58,680
me up instantly after the show and said two fifty max. Okay,

590
00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:02,599
no soup for you. Okay, So yeah in this gentleman,

591
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:06,240
yeah of course ski I They was said this gentleman, Yeah,

592
00:29:06,359 --> 00:29:10,000
twenty bucks after two four hundred dollars. I think it

593
00:29:10,039 --> 00:29:14,000
said superl Did it say Super Bowl for bets one?

594
00:29:14,119 --> 00:29:18,200
I mean, honestly, it's so different now. DraftKings. At least

595
00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:23,039
they took some good hits off me there, but now

596
00:29:24,039 --> 00:29:27,400
it's NFL bets that's throwing people out for Jesus, Mary

597
00:29:27,400 --> 00:29:30,920
and Joseph and all the Saints and sinners like myself

598
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,759
that win. Sorry, but yeah, so I was just looking

599
00:29:33,759 --> 00:29:36,480
at DraftKings though they had a really good bet there.

600
00:29:36,799 --> 00:29:39,680
I'm just I hate to lay a dollar sixty five,

601
00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:43,200
but I think the Dodgers might just be the best

602
00:29:43,240 --> 00:29:46,160
regular season wins I see minus the dollar sixty five

603
00:29:46,200 --> 00:29:49,119
most regular season wins. Nothing to go crazy. I'm just

604
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:51,519
an extra free bet I was. I actually went on

605
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:54,839
here looking for season wins to see what a couple

606
00:29:54,880 --> 00:29:57,079
of the teams were on season wins. They don't have

607
00:29:57,119 --> 00:29:59,119
the season wins up right now, but they do have

608
00:29:59,160 --> 00:30:03,839
most regular season wins by and the Dodgers is the favorite. FanDuel,

609
00:30:03,839 --> 00:30:07,000
who's much better to me. I was limited on the app,

610
00:30:07,039 --> 00:30:08,880
but they're good to me on the counter, and I

611
00:30:08,920 --> 00:30:12,039
heard now they're they're good on the app. I like

612
00:30:12,079 --> 00:30:16,119
how Fandel has all the season wins. Every day they

613
00:30:16,160 --> 00:30:19,160
go back in and adjust the baseball season wins. N

614
00:30:19,279 --> 00:30:22,920
GM was doing this too. MGM also has yes and

615
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:26,039
no to make the playoffs still today listed I love

616
00:30:26,200 --> 00:30:29,440
the adjusted season win Buill.

617
00:30:29,480 --> 00:30:31,400
Speaker 4: Did any of them? Did any of them jump out

618
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:33,000
to you while you were scrolling through there? I know

619
00:30:33,039 --> 00:30:34,680
you didn't really get to dive in deep, but did

620
00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:36,839
any of them jump out when you see one of.

621
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,039
Speaker 3: You guys just say the Marlins?

622
00:30:40,680 --> 00:30:43,000
Speaker 2: One of you guys, Yeah, Yanni was saying the Marlins.

623
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:45,640
Speaker 4: Okay, they're three and oh he's saying fugazy three and

624
00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,000
oh that he said that ain't gonna last direct question.

625
00:30:48,119 --> 00:30:52,279
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, no, Miami Margins Marlins seventies three and a half.

626
00:30:52,279 --> 00:30:54,559
They really didn't move it too much. Seventy three and

627
00:30:54,599 --> 00:30:57,599
a half over to minus twenty under minus so two,

628
00:30:57,680 --> 00:30:59,599
so that might be a good bet. Like like he's

629
00:30:59,599 --> 00:31:02,720
saying there, I was looking at Houston Astros. I still

630
00:31:02,759 --> 00:31:05,680
think the I gave out it under when the season started,

631
00:31:05,720 --> 00:31:08,160
but I thought it was maybe still gonna be eighty.

632
00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:09,519
I give out eighty. It was eighty six and a

633
00:31:09,559 --> 00:31:13,480
half at MGM, and they took They took some nice

634
00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:15,039
bets off me there and didn't even move it the

635
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:17,599
closed They closed the line eighty six and a half.

636
00:31:17,759 --> 00:31:20,079
I was looking at just maybe be a little bit

637
00:31:20,079 --> 00:31:22,079
more under, but I can't bet it now at eighty four.

638
00:31:22,279 --> 00:31:24,640
It's eighty four and a half there, which I kind

639
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:26,119
of didn't understand. I thought it would be a little

640
00:31:26,119 --> 00:31:29,200
bit higher there. But you know, listen, I'm looking to

641
00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:32,039
go against all the marquee teams. Like even though I

642
00:31:32,079 --> 00:31:35,640
say Dodgers best winning baseball, they have the Dodgers one

643
00:31:35,680 --> 00:31:38,440
oh four and a half. Wow, that's a lot. They're

644
00:31:38,519 --> 00:31:40,799
saying the Dodgers are gonna win one hundred and five games. Now,

645
00:31:40,839 --> 00:31:43,559
granted they are. They look like the best team in baseball,

646
00:31:43,599 --> 00:31:45,680
but last year they were projected to win one hundred

647
00:31:45,720 --> 00:31:47,839
and some game, one hundred and four games too, and

648
00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:51,039
it didn't. It didn't work out. So I just looked

649
00:31:51,079 --> 00:31:53,079
at I went there to look at three games, three teams,

650
00:31:53,079 --> 00:31:56,759
the Guardians, the I actually the Marlins actually looks like

651
00:31:56,799 --> 00:31:58,759
it could be a play. But I'm not betting anyway.

652
00:31:59,160 --> 00:32:01,519
Why because I can't bet it. You can't bet this

653
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:05,599
here in in Nevada. So there's a couple of subjects

654
00:32:05,599 --> 00:32:08,160
I wasn't even planning to talk about there. But you

655
00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:13,119
guys were talking about how to keep longevity in sports books. Yeah,

656
00:32:13,200 --> 00:32:16,519
you I just I know the books frown them up,

657
00:32:16,599 --> 00:32:18,160
frown upon it, and they get mad at me, saying

658
00:32:18,200 --> 00:32:21,240
that you just got to find a beard. You got

659
00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:26,960
a beard. In like Station's casinos here, they they do

660
00:32:27,039 --> 00:32:29,839
not like winners, even though they're big signs and billboards

661
00:32:29,839 --> 00:32:33,279
say we love our winners. Yeah, okay, uh they they

662
00:32:33,319 --> 00:32:36,480
they they they don't like anyone that wins on their

663
00:32:36,519 --> 00:32:39,599
app and they throw you off. I think I think

664
00:32:39,960 --> 00:32:42,039
I'm allowed to bet at the counter, but I'm not

665
00:32:42,119 --> 00:32:44,920
even sure. You know, the the antique that ran the place,

666
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:48,039
Art Mantarris that retired. Everyone's talking about him, how great

667
00:32:48,079 --> 00:32:50,759
he is? He you knows sports. But he wrote a book.

668
00:32:50,799 --> 00:32:53,680
He wrote, Oh well, are you're great? Yeah. Art also

669
00:32:53,720 --> 00:32:56,119
had to broke bring in an extra change of underwears

670
00:32:56,279 --> 00:32:59,519
every shift in case guys like me came in, so

671
00:33:00,359 --> 00:33:03,000
Art mantaris. He threw me out. And the reason why

672
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:06,440
he threw me out is because one I bet a

673
00:33:06,480 --> 00:33:08,960
game that moved three points. I lost. By the way,

674
00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:11,240
I lost that game, and it was a it was

675
00:33:11,279 --> 00:33:13,680
a normal sized bet. It was in the thousands. I

676
00:33:13,720 --> 00:33:15,920
lost that bet. They said, do you either give me

677
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:18,880
the ticket back it moved fifteen minutes later, either give

678
00:33:18,920 --> 00:33:22,119
me the Imagine someone people that are watching today, imagine

679
00:33:22,160 --> 00:33:25,160
someone chasing you out the casino and saying, hey, you

680
00:33:25,519 --> 00:33:28,119
that line moved. I need that ticket back. You can't

681
00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:31,440
have that anymore. Let's see if these companies chase out

682
00:33:31,480 --> 00:33:35,119
the people that it moved against. Hey, sir, you can

683
00:33:35,160 --> 00:33:37,319
get two points better. Now come on back in. We'll

684
00:33:37,359 --> 00:33:40,599
cancel that ticket for you. I mean, it really is.

685
00:33:40,640 --> 00:33:43,200
It's cat and mouse. It should be illegal what they do.

686
00:33:43,279 --> 00:33:47,319
If the Gaming commissions only knew what these sports books do,

687
00:33:47,880 --> 00:33:50,839
especially the ones that you'll make a bet and you'll

688
00:33:50,880 --> 00:33:54,160
be held in a queue and then they'll say, oh, sorry,

689
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:58,880
the line move. Someone betted somewhere else. It's totally totally illegal.

690
00:33:59,160 --> 00:34:02,799
Well it's not only it's a moral and unethical what

691
00:34:02,839 --> 00:34:06,079
these sports books do. And people that as happens to

692
00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:09,280
they understand. They know that I'm not. You know, what

693
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:12,440
I'm talking about comes from experience. So Manterras had his

694
00:34:13,039 --> 00:34:14,920
one of his lackey's chased me out of the casino

695
00:34:15,119 --> 00:34:16,440
and I said, no, I'm not giving to take a

696
00:34:16,480 --> 00:34:19,199
back the bet loss. I went public with it, and

697
00:34:19,239 --> 00:34:21,000
he said, can you come down and talk to me?

698
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:24,679
So I actually went down to the Red Rock Casino

699
00:34:24,760 --> 00:34:26,880
and talked to him in person, which I gotta have

700
00:34:26,920 --> 00:34:28,880
to tell you, I actually give him credit for that.

701
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:31,400
I went down and talked to him, and he said,

702
00:34:31,639 --> 00:34:34,079
and then he used the excuse that, you know, we

703
00:34:34,199 --> 00:34:37,880
have you on camera on the phone. Okay, you're you're

704
00:34:37,920 --> 00:34:40,440
allowed to be on the phone now in the sports books.

705
00:34:40,599 --> 00:34:42,760
You know, maybe my wife wanted a container of milk

706
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:44,199
on the way home. How do you know what I

707
00:34:44,239 --> 00:34:46,159
was talking about if it had something to do with you.

708
00:34:46,440 --> 00:34:49,199
But they try to use every excuse and the gaming boards.

709
00:34:49,559 --> 00:34:52,000
Let me just tell you gaming. Why we do have

710
00:34:52,079 --> 00:34:56,440
some good gaming agents and good gaming people indirectly they're paid.

711
00:34:56,519 --> 00:34:58,800
Why did they have a job. If there was no gaming,

712
00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:02,960
no gamings places the game to the police, they wouldn't

713
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:06,039
have a job. So I'm going in with a oh

714
00:35:06,119 --> 00:35:09,800
to two count uh, you know, and and against their

715
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:12,280
top closer when I'm making a bet and trying to

716
00:35:12,320 --> 00:35:15,719
bring it to gaming and show them something. So uh.

717
00:35:16,119 --> 00:35:20,079
But anyway, going back to that, they Art actually allowed

718
00:35:20,119 --> 00:35:23,280
me back in and then I posted a video from

719
00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,480
New Jersey, but I wasn't there. When I get back,

720
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:27,000
I put a lot of videos together and put them

721
00:35:27,079 --> 00:35:29,880
up eventually during and he said you were not in

722
00:35:30,000 --> 00:35:32,239
Las Vegas when you made a bet in your account.

723
00:35:32,639 --> 00:35:35,800
That wasn't the case I was in. I put the

724
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:38,239
video up that talking about what I did two weeks

725
00:35:38,239 --> 00:35:40,800
ago in New Jersey. Anyway, I'm going off on tangents

726
00:35:40,800 --> 00:35:43,880
to they look for any excuse to throw you out. Hello,

727
00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:44,639
who would have thun?

728
00:35:45,360 --> 00:35:46,239
Speaker 2: Who would have done that?

729
00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:50,519
Speaker 4: Art was catching tickets on over a half pair of underwear,

730
00:35:50,639 --> 00:35:54,519
either worn or brought for the odds makers. That's that's

731
00:35:54,559 --> 00:35:57,239
that's well done out of you, Bill? Well Bill, Before

732
00:35:57,280 --> 00:35:59,000
we shut things down. Obviously, we want to hear what

733
00:35:59,079 --> 00:36:00,679
you have rocking go and I know you don't have

734
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:02,360
anything loaded yet, but not yet.

735
00:36:02,800 --> 00:36:04,519
Speaker 2: Great been a great run, man.

736
00:36:04,840 --> 00:36:07,280
Speaker 4: It was sixty one percent over the last seven days

737
00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:08,559
twenty five and sixteen.

738
00:36:08,599 --> 00:36:11,400
Speaker 2: But first, man, the folks need an NBA prop. You

739
00:36:11,440 --> 00:36:14,280
got one for him today anything You're one second week

740
00:36:14,320 --> 00:36:14,679
in a row.

741
00:36:14,679 --> 00:36:18,719
Speaker 3: I see I'm the top top record there. That's pretty good.

742
00:36:19,039 --> 00:36:21,079
Uh oh yeah, have to continue those type of streets.

743
00:36:21,079 --> 00:36:23,360
But there's a lot of guys to beat out. So yeah,

744
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:26,599
we had a really good run. Connecticut actually was a

745
00:36:26,639 --> 00:36:28,679
good one there. I had five I give out five

746
00:36:28,719 --> 00:36:30,639
and a half and there was five and a half available.

747
00:36:30,679 --> 00:36:32,840
It's funny. I did my Fox show yesterday and there

748
00:36:32,880 --> 00:36:36,360
was five and a half right at MGM yes yesterday

749
00:36:36,360 --> 00:36:38,840
when there was minus five even at some places. So

750
00:36:39,119 --> 00:36:41,360
it is good to have a lot of places, guys.

751
00:36:41,880 --> 00:36:46,079
Fantastic run. College basketball twenty two to ten on March

752
00:36:46,119 --> 00:36:49,159
manness plus thirty five over thirty five units based on

753
00:36:49,199 --> 00:36:52,760
the way I tell you to play. What a great game.

754
00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:54,960
Great comeback last night. I had five percent play on

755
00:36:55,000 --> 00:36:57,679
that on Yukon. But you know, they could have went

756
00:36:57,760 --> 00:36:59,880
either way. There. How about if he misses a free

757
00:37:00,159 --> 00:37:02,239
row and it's on three and they found him, I

758
00:37:02,239 --> 00:37:03,840
could have landed off. I still would have covered it

759
00:37:04,039 --> 00:37:05,880
by five and a half. I'm just glad they got

760
00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:08,599
the win there, and glad we got we got a

761
00:37:08,599 --> 00:37:10,400
big win there. For all the wager talk people, I've

762
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:12,360
been saying it. I've been saying it for months. Get

763
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:15,519
on board. Uh prop here we go baseball. Let me

764
00:37:15,599 --> 00:37:17,679
just make sure that MGM or someone has this. Still

765
00:37:17,880 --> 00:37:20,880
mean yapping all the whole time. But it's not really

766
00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:25,000
gonna change baseball season. I just said, so, it just started,

767
00:37:25,000 --> 00:37:27,199
so we're gonna have some stuff loaded though. We've had

768
00:37:27,199 --> 00:37:30,519
a couple of things so far. Let's go Texas Rangers.

769
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:33,840
Jack Lighter strikeouts over four and a half. Is it

770
00:37:33,920 --> 00:37:34,960
still minus thirty five?

771
00:37:35,039 --> 00:37:35,199
Speaker 4: Yeah?

772
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:38,000
Speaker 3: Jack Lighter strikeouts over four and a half minus one

773
00:37:38,119 --> 00:37:42,079
thirty five. He had a great spring training. He's up

774
00:37:42,119 --> 00:37:45,800
to his normal pitch counts now he's up. He's up

775
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:48,719
against the Orioles today, and the Orioles they have seven

776
00:37:48,760 --> 00:37:51,360
guys in their lineup that have over that strikeout like

777
00:37:52,159 --> 00:37:56,400
twenty strikeout rate versus these right handed pitchers. So over

778
00:37:56,480 --> 00:38:00,000
four and a half Jack lighter over his strikeouts. Guys,

779
00:38:00,039 --> 00:38:02,559

Speaker 2: Stay hot man, stay hot.

792
00:38:34,039 --> 00:38:35,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's always good when you get to come on

793
00:38:35,480 --> 00:38:37,199
and say, yeah, I was, I was back to back.

794
00:38:37,079 --> 00:38:39,719
Speaker 2: Getting to chill on the leaderboard and I'm never a

795
00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:40,199
bad day.

796
00:38:40,800 --> 00:38:45,239
Speaker 1: No, it's it's good. Listen. Like we always talk about

797
00:38:45,239 --> 00:38:48,079
when we win and when we lose. But God, would

798
00:38:48,119 --> 00:38:50,039
you have a bad day or a bad stretch and

799
00:38:50,079 --> 00:38:51,440
you have to come on shows.

800
00:38:52,119 --> 00:38:52,760
Speaker 2: It sucks.

801
00:38:53,400 --> 00:38:57,760
Speaker 1: It's awful, Like it's the worst feeling in the world.

802
00:38:57,840 --> 00:39:00,599
Speaker 4: Like like dude, I don't like losing Era one when

803
00:39:00,639 --> 00:39:02,639
you know folks are riding with you, when you know

804
00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:04,719
people put their hard earned money with us.

805
00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:06,719
Speaker 2: But like when you're on one of those streaks where

806
00:39:06,719 --> 00:39:07,960
you're just not seeing.

807
00:39:07,719 --> 00:39:11,159
Speaker 4: It right, it's hard to get out of bed, let alone,

808
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:14,360
hop on, turn your light on, get the microphone ready

809
00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:14,679
to go.

810
00:39:15,400 --> 00:39:17,119
Speaker 2: But accountability is the name of the game.

811
00:39:16,960 --> 00:39:19,880
Speaker 4: Man, And and that's that's what wader Talk does differently,

812
00:39:20,000 --> 00:39:22,079
so so's it's nice when you get to talk about

813
00:39:22,079 --> 00:39:25,280
what's going well because as we all know, sports betters

814
00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:29,800
and pros guys, you know, it's it's it's not always Roses,

815
00:39:30,039 --> 00:39:30,639
that's for sure.

816
00:39:30,719 --> 00:39:30,920
Speaker 3: Yeah.

817
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:35,159
Speaker 1: Yeah, one of the best money line picks for MLB today.

818
00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:38,480
I gotta be I gotta be honest, Dan, one of

819
00:39:38,519 --> 00:39:41,639
the I just truly believe that if you can isolate

820
00:39:41,719 --> 00:39:46,599
who's a who's the horrible team and and just fade.

821
00:39:47,280 --> 00:39:49,239
I think it was one thousand. I think it was

822
00:39:49,239 --> 00:39:52,480
like twenty twenty two. I was number one and on

823
00:39:52,519 --> 00:39:55,400
wager Talk for for baseball, and it was it was

824
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:59,440
the year that the Diamondbacks, basically their entire pitching staff

825
00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:02,000
got hurt, like they had nobody and I think they

826
00:40:02,079 --> 00:40:04,440
lost like twenty one games in a row or something,

827
00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:08,360
and it was just you bet against them every single day.

828
00:40:08,599 --> 00:40:12,360
I think the White Sox might be like tragically bad.

829
00:40:13,360 --> 00:40:17,559
Like they might be they might be epic. I mean,

830
00:40:17,760 --> 00:40:19,800
I know they were bad last year, but so they

831
00:40:19,800 --> 00:40:23,599
got they got beat nine to seven, six to one,

832
00:40:23,639 --> 00:40:26,519
and fourteen to two. And I know it was against

833
00:40:26,519 --> 00:40:29,679
the Brewers, but I'm looking at the Miami Marlins, and

834
00:40:29,760 --> 00:40:32,679
I know Miami is not gonna, you know, keep up

835
00:40:32,719 --> 00:40:36,079
their three and zero, but Miami minus won forty three

836
00:40:36,159 --> 00:40:38,679
on DraftKings. If this White Sox team is really bad,

837
00:40:38,679 --> 00:40:40,639
are you really going to be seeing minus one forty

838
00:40:40,679 --> 00:40:44,400
three across the board. So that would be one that

839
00:40:44,639 --> 00:40:47,519
I would look at, and that I mean, the Cubs

840
00:40:47,519 --> 00:40:49,960
are minus one ninety four, but the Angels are pretty rough.

841
00:40:51,079 --> 00:40:54,960
The Angels are are a pretty rough team. Not a

842
00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:56,880
whole lot of offense coming out of that one.

843
00:40:57,440 --> 00:40:59,880
Speaker 2: And we just.

844
00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:02,480
Speaker 4: Got Steve Merrily here, so we're gonna talk with him.

845
00:41:02,480 --> 00:41:04,079
Talk to the Men Bay games in just a second.

846
00:41:04,079 --> 00:41:06,800
But if we're asking about, you know, money line picks,

847
00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:08,719
what I have been doing here on the show. We

848
00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:10,239
typically do it at the end, but we'll give it

849
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:12,480
to you now. Right before we bring Steve in, we

850
00:41:12,519 --> 00:41:16,360
have our crack of the bat MLB Dog of the Day.

851
00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:17,480
Speaker 2: We've been doing this.

852
00:41:18,000 --> 00:41:22,360
Speaker 4: For two days, Andy, So again baseball small sample size,

853
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:24,880
but we'll take me in two point seven units up.

854
00:41:25,039 --> 00:41:26,800
We cast a one sixty. We cast a one to

855
00:41:26,880 --> 00:41:29,920
ten on Friday with the Detroit Tigers. That's why I'm

856
00:41:29,920 --> 00:41:32,400
wearing the lid here. So let's go for a little

857
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:35,280
bit longer of a dog here today. Andy, if you're

858
00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:37,480
cracking the bat dog of the day, I'm going Minnesota

859
00:41:37,519 --> 00:41:41,000
twins against the Kansas City Royals. This one, again, guys,

860
00:41:41,039 --> 00:41:44,239
is similar how I picked our first two, And it's

861
00:41:44,320 --> 00:41:47,639
just what do we see about the Royals thus far

862
00:41:47,719 --> 00:41:50,840
that they should be north of one sixty because they're home,

863
00:41:51,239 --> 00:41:54,039
because they stole the last game effort against the Braves

864
00:41:54,079 --> 00:41:57,639
before going a combined twelve and two to start the year,

865
00:41:58,079 --> 00:42:02,519
their losses twelve to two. Use me twins they opened

866
00:42:02,599 --> 00:42:04,960
up against the team I'm crazy Bullashawn so Am. I

867
00:42:05,000 --> 00:42:06,840
surprised they lost against Baltimore.

868
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:07,000
Speaker 3: No.

869
00:42:07,280 --> 00:42:09,719
Speaker 4: I like Baltimore a lot this year. They stayed competitive

870
00:42:10,119 --> 00:42:12,960
in all three of those games, and I just think, yeah,

871
00:42:13,000 --> 00:42:14,800
I think Boo Bitch is a good pitcher, don't don't

872
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:16,840
get me wrong, But I think we're getting a little

873
00:42:16,840 --> 00:42:20,280
bit overvalued because of how he ended last year, how

874
00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:21,800
he looked in spring training.

875
00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:22,719
Speaker 2: And the Royals as a whole.

876
00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:24,519
Speaker 4: I just don't see him as a plus or you know,

877
00:42:24,559 --> 00:42:27,159
as a mine's one sixty one sixty five or batter

878
00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:30,800
so twins, crack of the bat, MLB dog in the day,

879
00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:32,159
give me the plus one forty five.

880
00:42:32,199 --> 00:42:35,320
Speaker 1: And we got a few people talking about the Giants.

881
00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:38,800
I did not know this. Through three games they have

882
00:42:38,880 --> 00:42:39,719
one run.

883
00:42:43,480 --> 00:42:47,760
Speaker 2: Unders I mean unders or do we hop in and

884
00:42:47,800 --> 00:42:48,320
fade them?

885
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:54,119
Speaker 1: I mean take your pick, but I'll run you guys

886
00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:56,880
got all run pretty bad. So all right, let's bring

887
00:42:56,960 --> 00:43:01,119
in Steve Merrill and we'll talk O talk some hoopes here, Steve,

888
00:43:01,159 --> 00:43:01,800
Happy Monday.

889
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:03,519
Speaker 5: How are you, hey? Boys? What's going on?

890
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:10,039
Speaker 1: Oho? Much just as absorbing some info from baseball, trying

891
00:43:10,039 --> 00:43:13,920
to get ducks in a row there. But we talked

892
00:43:13,960 --> 00:43:18,000
about talked about college basketball yesterday and that crazy ending there.

893
00:43:18,039 --> 00:43:20,400
So what was your takeaway from college basketball so far?

894
00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:22,400
And when you think about the four teams that are left.

895
00:43:23,039 --> 00:43:25,599
Speaker 8: So so close to having the final four correct. I

896
00:43:25,599 --> 00:43:28,280
had all four teams correct, had Duke held on, because

897
00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:30,920
I did have Illinois in there, and I still got

898
00:43:31,599 --> 00:43:34,639
my two national champs Arizona Michigan. I always thought was

899
00:43:34,679 --> 00:43:37,039
going to maybe be the national title game. But my

900
00:43:37,119 --> 00:43:38,920
long shot pick for anybody who got my bracket, and

901
00:43:39,079 --> 00:43:42,039
hundreds of my clients got it for free, Illinois at

902
00:43:42,039 --> 00:43:44,280
twenty two to one was my long shot pick that

903
00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:47,400
I was promoting in that bracket. And I guess in

904
00:43:47,440 --> 00:43:50,360
a way, Duke losing is good for that because I

905
00:43:50,360 --> 00:43:52,760
think Illinois probably better than you Kon to be honest.

906
00:43:52,800 --> 00:43:54,920
So yeah, I mean I would have had the final

907
00:43:54,960 --> 00:43:56,920
four correct, but it really sets Illinois up for that

908
00:43:57,000 --> 00:43:59,159
long shot chances. We very well might have Illinois in

909
00:43:59,159 --> 00:44:01,599
the finals. Now, yukon of the final four to three

910
00:44:01,599 --> 00:44:03,039
of the last four years they had back to back

911
00:44:03,079 --> 00:44:05,280
championships and everyone thought they were unbeatable, and then last

912
00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:07,079
year they were definitely not as strong as we thought

913
00:44:07,079 --> 00:44:07,679
they were going to be.

914
00:44:08,639 --> 00:44:09,440
Speaker 5: They are a good team.

915
00:44:09,480 --> 00:44:11,159
Speaker 8: This year everyone will kind of rode them off because

916
00:44:11,199 --> 00:44:13,119
Saint John's blew them out of the Big East Tournament.

917
00:44:13,199 --> 00:44:14,039
Speaker 5: That didn't bother me.

918
00:44:14,079 --> 00:44:16,559
Speaker 8: What worries me is that even coming into this week

919
00:44:16,599 --> 00:44:19,320
through only the twenty fifth offensive effishing team in the country,

920
00:44:19,639 --> 00:44:22,679
and that is why they trailed by nineteen yesterday. And

921
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:25,239
let's also not forget it was a great comeback, but

922
00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:27,400
when you overcome a nineteen point deficit, the other team

923
00:44:27,440 --> 00:44:29,679
has to help you at times, and Duke obviously did

924
00:44:29,719 --> 00:44:33,960
that multiple ways. Cameron Boozer huge turnover and then he

925
00:44:34,000 --> 00:44:36,840
gets the basket, and then Duke, any of the three

926
00:44:36,920 --> 00:44:40,000
players that possessed the ball in the back point back

927
00:44:40,039 --> 00:44:41,679
court with only ten seconds or man he could have

928
00:44:41,719 --> 00:44:44,239
just held the ball, nobody had to pass the ball,

929
00:44:44,519 --> 00:44:46,000
and three of them did it and it led to

930
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:50,119
that turnover. So as a coach, very interesting to see that.

931
00:44:50,159 --> 00:44:52,440
And keep in mind also Duke blew a fourteen point

932
00:44:52,480 --> 00:44:55,519
lead last year in the Elitate against Houston. Houston made

933
00:44:55,519 --> 00:44:57,960
that big comeback and then Houston won their final four games.

934
00:44:57,960 --> 00:44:59,599
So you know, just don't think Connecticut's going to come

935
00:44:59,639 --> 00:45:00,800
in flat necessarily.

936
00:45:01,519 --> 00:45:02,039
Speaker 5: But I think.

937
00:45:01,920 --> 00:45:03,760
Speaker 8: Illinois is a really good team and the aligne I

938
00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:06,440
had not trailed in the second half except for one

939
00:45:06,480 --> 00:45:09,000
game their previous twenty four until the game the other day,

940
00:45:09,400 --> 00:45:11,679
and they still found a way to win and for

941
00:45:11,920 --> 00:45:15,159
their five losses going down the stretch right overtime.

942
00:45:15,199 --> 00:45:16,599
Speaker 5: So Illinois was my long shot.

943
00:45:16,639 --> 00:45:17,960
Speaker 8: We'll see if they can make the finals, and I

944
00:45:17,960 --> 00:45:20,360
think Michigan Arizona deatter for the two best teams remaining.

945
00:45:21,800 --> 00:45:23,800
Speaker 1: What was amazing about that last play. You go back

946
00:45:23,800 --> 00:45:27,400
and watch it, you kind of clearly they've practiced that,

947
00:45:28,320 --> 00:45:31,639
they knew exactly what they were doing, and it was

948
00:45:32,159 --> 00:45:36,320
like the two guys they on purpose left the two

949
00:45:36,400 --> 00:45:38,719
duke players on the other side of the court. You

950
00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:40,639
can see as student as the guy passed it. They

951
00:45:40,639 --> 00:45:43,639
were just taught jump up with your hands. That was

952
00:45:43,639 --> 00:45:46,519
an that was not a frantic defensive possession. That was

953
00:45:46,599 --> 00:45:50,880
absolutely coached. They didn't try and foul and they tried

954
00:45:50,920 --> 00:45:53,559
to just outthink the other team into turning it over

955
00:45:53,639 --> 00:45:56,519
and they did. It was wild. I watched that play

956
00:45:56,559 --> 00:45:59,599
a million times, and like every time I watch, I'd

957
00:45:59,679 --> 00:46:02,440
noticed something a little bit different about the defense and

958
00:46:02,559 --> 00:46:06,320
just how brilliantly that was coached. So very very cool. Well,

959
00:46:06,400 --> 00:46:09,119
let's talk NBA here, Steve. We got Celtics and Hawks,

960
00:46:09,159 --> 00:46:14,159
Pistons Thunder. Two really good games here. These teams. The

961
00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:16,199
Hawks are an interesting team. I kind of like watching

962
00:46:16,280 --> 00:46:18,360
them play here, I'm a little bit surprised that they're

963
00:46:18,360 --> 00:46:20,320
the favor here minus one and a half over under

964
00:46:20,400 --> 00:46:23,159
two twenty two. But let's talk to Celtics Hawks games.

965
00:46:23,199 --> 00:46:25,119
What do you expect tonight and why is this Hawks

966
00:46:25,119 --> 00:46:25,760
team's favored?

967
00:46:27,039 --> 00:46:29,639
Speaker 8: Well, first of all, it's a quick revenge spot, something

968
00:46:29,679 --> 00:46:31,119
we always keep an eye on in the NBA. You know,

969
00:46:31,119 --> 00:46:32,880
we talk about revenge a lot in college shops in

970
00:46:32,920 --> 00:46:35,159
the NBA, and it's not necessarily because the team is mad.

971
00:46:35,239 --> 00:46:36,119
Speaker 5: We're going to get revenge.

972
00:46:36,199 --> 00:46:38,480
Speaker 8: So a lot of times the other team let's up

973
00:46:38,519 --> 00:46:40,519
a bit after the win. And I say that because

974
00:46:40,519 --> 00:46:42,840
these teams did just play on Friday night in Boston

975
00:46:43,519 --> 00:46:45,679
and the Hawks lost one o nine one oh two.

976
00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,119
Did not shoot the ball well in that game, just

977
00:46:48,159 --> 00:46:50,320
thirty nine percent from the field, gave up forty seven

978
00:46:50,320 --> 00:46:53,000
percent shooting. They still only lost by seven points. They

979
00:46:53,039 --> 00:46:55,760
bounced back on Saturday back at home against Sacramento with

980
00:46:55,800 --> 00:46:58,400
a ten point win, a non covering win, but a'll

981
00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,400
win nonetheless, and that was a tough spot the no

982
00:47:00,480 --> 00:47:05,760
rest travel situation returning home after the Detroit Boston road games. Meanwhile,

983
00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:08,920
the Celtics entered this game often nice win as they

984
00:47:09,079 --> 00:47:11,559
went to Charlotte on Sunday yesterday after that home win

985
00:47:11,559 --> 00:47:14,679
against Atlanta, big win at Charlotte as a dog last

986
00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:17,800
night by fifteen, three straight wins coming in here, and

987
00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:20,039
keep in mind they also beat the Thunder, the defending

988
00:47:20,079 --> 00:47:23,199
world champs the game before Atlanta, so three big wins

989
00:47:23,199 --> 00:47:25,760
for Boston. They have not submitted their injury report yet.

990
00:47:26,119 --> 00:47:28,199
I don't necessarily think they're sitting guys, but that also

991
00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:30,719
tells me there's that possibility. So I think there's a

992
00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:32,440
few reasons why Atlanta is the favorite here and I

993
00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:34,280
agree with it. I like them at the minus one

994
00:47:34,320 --> 00:47:37,360
and a half to minus two quick revenge spot here

995
00:47:37,440 --> 00:47:40,239
for Atlanta, and maybe not the most focused spot for

996
00:47:40,320 --> 00:47:42,360
the Celtics, not just because they just beat the Hawks,

997
00:47:42,360 --> 00:47:44,719
but they're also coming off a road dog win without

998
00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:47,119
rest travel situation after Charlotte last night.

999
00:47:50,199 --> 00:47:55,559
Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, it looks like Boston is gonna be looks

1000
00:47:55,599 --> 00:48:00,960
like Tatum is doubtful, White, questionable, Jeland Brown, questionable, Bootsvitch

1001
00:48:01,000 --> 00:48:03,079
remains me out so.

1002
00:48:02,559 --> 00:48:05,519
Speaker 8: And literally at twelve forty nine and eighteen seconds, it

1003
00:48:05,639 --> 00:48:08,679
just popped on odds logic. Jalen Brown is upgraded to

1004
00:48:08,800 --> 00:48:12,159
available to play with the calf and that is lighting

1005
00:48:12,239 --> 00:48:14,159
up right now on the Odds Logic screen.

1006
00:48:14,239 --> 00:48:16,960
Speaker 5: So it's so crazy when we do these live shows.

1007
00:48:18,159 --> 00:48:20,079
Speaker 8: Yeah, so, but the line's gone from one to two,

1008
00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:23,039
so it's not like like you said, Tatum might likely

1009
00:48:23,079 --> 00:48:26,400
is not playing the EFFICI. Yeah, the NBA report is

1010
00:48:26,400 --> 00:48:28,599
not out yet. Maybe the one o'clock Eastern I'll have it, Steve.

1011
00:48:28,679 --> 00:48:30,519
Speaker 4: I got my Odds Logic screen up too, and it

1012
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:34,119
popped literally right before they said Jalen Brown in Uh,

1013
00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:36,280
Tatum's going to be out at least before to Odds

1014
00:48:36,360 --> 00:48:38,559
Logic here. So I guess that's that's why they're like,

1015
00:48:38,760 --> 00:48:42,920
well Brown's and no Tatum though, just add another point

1016
00:48:42,960 --> 00:48:45,320
on there, or add another half point half point on there.

1017
00:48:45,519 --> 00:48:47,280
Speaker 8: Yeah, and the over under, by the way, has dropped

1018
00:48:47,320 --> 00:48:49,199
from two twenty two and a half two twenty three

1019
00:48:49,239 --> 00:48:50,239
down to two twenty two.

1020
00:48:50,440 --> 00:48:51,719
Speaker 5: And we've seen it go from one and a half

1021
00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:52,000
to two.

1022
00:48:52,039 --> 00:48:54,000
Speaker 8: So as I was breaking that game down live on

1023
00:48:54,079 --> 00:48:57,880
Wait to Talk TV Odds, it's incredible how often this

1024
00:48:57,920 --> 00:48:59,960
has happened this year. I did I did the fun

1025
00:49:00,840 --> 00:49:05,159
Dan like on Saturday after no Friday afternoon or whatever.

1026
00:49:05,239 --> 00:49:06,519
Speaker 5: Yeah, because it was the Arizona game.

1027
00:49:06,519 --> 00:49:08,840
Speaker 8: I'm doing it Friday afternoon, and about a minute after

1028
00:49:08,880 --> 00:49:11,199
I finished recording, the total gets hitt and goes up

1029
00:49:11,199 --> 00:49:12,960
a full point, like in the middle of the afternoon

1030
00:49:12,960 --> 00:49:14,519
on Friday before the Saturday game.

1031
00:49:14,559 --> 00:49:17,360
Speaker 5: I said, you can't make this stuff. Fuck, it's insane.

1032
00:49:18,199 --> 00:49:21,000
Speaker 4: They plan it around when Steve is on video, they

1033
00:49:21,119 --> 00:49:23,920
plan it or they Steve whispers and they're like.

1034
00:49:23,760 --> 00:49:25,599
Speaker 8: Right, well, and you realize I'm not claiming I'm moving

1035
00:49:25,599 --> 00:49:27,920
the lines because I was reporting. Nobody had seen it yet,

1036
00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:29,079
so I just want to make sure the viewers don't

1037
00:49:29,119 --> 00:49:30,400
think I'm saying I'm moving the marketing.

1038
00:49:30,559 --> 00:49:32,480
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's kind of eerie at times.

1039
00:49:33,599 --> 00:49:36,920
Speaker 1: We got the Detroit Pistons Oklahoma City Thunder. We thought

1040
00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:41,440
we were gonna get like SGA versus Cad cunning Him.

1041
00:49:41,480 --> 00:49:49,119
Instead we're getting SGA versus Kevin Herder. Uh touch, touch

1042
00:49:49,159 --> 00:49:51,320
of a little bit of a let down there, But yeah,

1043
00:49:51,400 --> 00:49:54,039
Detroit looks like they're sitting a lot of guys. During's doubtful,

1044
00:49:54,360 --> 00:49:58,320
Harris is doubtful, Duncan Robinson's doubtful, Beef stews out, Kate

1045
00:49:58,480 --> 00:50:01,079
is out. So we get a monster line here. Minus twelve.

1046
00:50:01,119 --> 00:50:03,599
You and I talk about this, when these teams sit

1047
00:50:03,679 --> 00:50:06,079
these players, A, it can be a letdown spot for

1048
00:50:06,119 --> 00:50:08,480
the big favorite, and B you got these bench players

1049
00:50:08,519 --> 00:50:10,960
that this is their time to shine. So what do

1050
00:50:11,039 --> 00:50:13,159
you make of this big spread here over under two eighteen?

1051
00:50:14,159 --> 00:50:16,760
Speaker 8: Yeah, and let's talk too about just the Pistons in general.

1052
00:50:16,760 --> 00:50:19,840
With L K Cunningham right, they continue to win. This

1053
00:50:19,920 --> 00:50:21,960
is a team that has won six of their last

1054
00:50:22,039 --> 00:50:26,079
seven games. They've won none of their last eleven games overall,

1055
00:50:26,639 --> 00:50:28,800
and they've even covering as well. Five of the last

1056
00:50:28,840 --> 00:50:31,360
six games that they've won, they've covered all five of those.

1057
00:50:31,360 --> 00:50:33,199
So they're perfect five of us straight up in ats

1058
00:50:33,199 --> 00:50:35,880
with those wins and covers. And granted they were only

1059
00:50:35,880 --> 00:50:37,159
a dog in one of them, and that was a

1060
00:50:37,199 --> 00:50:40,400
small home dog against the Lakers. They were favored in

1061
00:50:40,440 --> 00:50:42,480
all the other games. So this is a huge step

1062
00:50:42,559 --> 00:50:45,039
up in class. I believe the biggest dog they've been

1063
00:50:45,079 --> 00:50:46,679
all season. I'd have to go back and check, but

1064
00:50:47,159 --> 00:50:49,119
with Cunningham, I don't believe unless it was early in

1065
00:50:49,159 --> 00:50:51,280
the season before everyone realized how good they were this year.

1066
00:50:51,840 --> 00:50:54,280
With that said, though, this is not a great spot

1067
00:50:54,559 --> 00:50:56,599
for the Oklahoma City thunder. You know, they had a

1068
00:50:56,599 --> 00:50:59,000
big national TV game last night against the New York Knicks.

1069
00:50:59,199 --> 00:51:02,760
It was the NBC Prime Game, primetime game at seven

1070
00:51:02,880 --> 00:51:04,800
thirty Eastern last night, and they beat the Nicks at

1071
00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:07,480
home on eleven one hundred. And they also beat the

1072
00:51:07,519 --> 00:51:10,679
Bulls right before that, somewhat and blowout fashion on Friday night.

1073
00:51:11,039 --> 00:51:14,000
I mentioned that loss against the Celtics earlier on Wednesday,

1074
00:51:14,719 --> 00:51:17,760
played the Sixers before that. Yes, the Pistons are one

1075
00:51:17,760 --> 00:51:19,480
of the best teams in the league record wise, but

1076
00:51:19,519 --> 00:51:22,280
this is obviously not that squad. Kate Cunningham outstill at

1077
00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:24,800
the lung injury and obviously also a lot of guys

1078
00:51:24,840 --> 00:51:26,679
listened on the injury punter fact, I'm saying nine guys

1079
00:51:26,679 --> 00:51:29,440
including Cunningham, on the current injury report right now. That's

1080
00:51:29,480 --> 00:51:32,679
basically a full roster. So that does concern you because

1081
00:51:32,679 --> 00:51:34,360
we might not even get many of the backups in

1082
00:51:34,400 --> 00:51:38,239
this game. But Detroit still been a feisty team without Cunningham.

1083
00:51:38,559 --> 00:51:40,519
And yes, Cunningham is a star player, but this is

1084
00:51:40,519 --> 00:51:43,159
a really good Detroit squad overall. It's not just Cunningham,

1085
00:51:43,199 --> 00:51:45,239
and they've proven they can win without them. And the

1086
00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:47,519
fact that the Thunder might not be fully focused for

1087
00:51:47,599 --> 00:51:49,239
this one. And oh, by the way, guess what they

1088
00:51:49,280 --> 00:51:51,920
have on deck later this week? The LA Lakers is

1089
00:51:51,960 --> 00:51:54,840
their next game. We'll take a flyer with the Detroit

1090
00:51:54,880 --> 00:51:57,039
Pistons here, and if you just blindly play these short

1091
00:51:57,039 --> 00:51:59,000
handed teams, you have won more money than you've lost

1092
00:51:59,199 --> 00:52:00,559
over the last few year years. And one of the

1093
00:52:00,599 --> 00:52:03,079
reasons is because they have to inflate the line, and

1094
00:52:03,119 --> 00:52:05,239
this line is currently plus twelve across the board with

1095
00:52:05,239 --> 00:52:06,800
Detroit has still been one of the best straight up

1096
00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:09,239
teams in the league, and we're getting twelve points with them,

1097
00:52:09,280 --> 00:52:10,840
So I would lean Pistons in this one. But it

1098
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:13,440
is a shorthanded Detroit squad to say the least. And

1099
00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:16,159
by the way, Oklahoma City has not submitted their injury

1100
00:52:16,159 --> 00:52:18,159
report yet. I doubt they're sitting anybody, but they did

1101
00:52:18,159 --> 00:52:19,519
play last night, so a lot have to keep it

1102
00:52:19,599 --> 00:52:22,840
on that as well.

1103
00:52:23,039 --> 00:52:26,400
Speaker 1: That would be something if you take the Thunder because

1104
00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:27,960
Detroit sitting of course.

1105
00:52:27,920 --> 00:52:30,039
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean it's a possibility, right There is some

1106
00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:33,039
antic value with Detroit right now until that injury report

1107
00:52:33,079 --> 00:52:33,440
comes out.

1108
00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:34,840
Speaker 5: A great point, Steve.

1109
00:52:35,480 --> 00:52:38,960
Speaker 1: But the Thunder bench is almost a starting team anyways,

1110
00:52:39,559 --> 00:52:43,039
like they bring in there. They literally have too many

1111
00:52:43,079 --> 00:52:43,719
good players.

1112
00:52:43,880 --> 00:52:44,360
Speaker 5: It's andy.

1113
00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:45,840
Speaker 8: I thought I wanted to mention this because knew we

1114
00:52:45,880 --> 00:52:47,400
were talking about this game today. When I was watching

1115
00:52:47,400 --> 00:52:49,760
the starting lineup last time that next game, it cracks

1116
00:52:49,920 --> 00:52:52,519
me up. Where they go at center seven foot heart

1117
00:52:52,519 --> 00:52:56,960
and Stegn at guard seven foot one Chtholg. That has

1118
00:52:57,000 --> 00:52:59,199
to be the most ridiculous thing in the history of

1119
00:52:59,239 --> 00:53:02,519
basketball to hear it cracks me up every time.

1120
00:53:03,079 --> 00:53:04,440
Speaker 5: I think, that's never. That's never.

1121
00:53:04,519 --> 00:53:06,480
Speaker 8: There's no way that's ever happened on any other team

1122
00:53:06,480 --> 00:53:08,199
in history that they announced the center and then the

1123
00:53:08,199 --> 00:53:10,559
guard is an inch taller unless the center is like

1124
00:53:10,599 --> 00:53:13,480
five six foot Air Force Academy starting center five eleven.

1125
00:53:13,519 --> 00:53:15,119
Speaker 5: You know, that's be like the only way that would

1126
00:53:15,119 --> 00:53:16,719
ever happen five.

1127
00:53:16,519 --> 00:53:17,239
Speaker 2: Eleven and a half.

1128
00:53:20,400 --> 00:53:22,159
Speaker 1: Steve, what do you have about for everybody on Monday?

1129
00:53:22,719 --> 00:53:24,719
Speaker 8: Yeah, so we're talking a lot of NBA. Obviously, the

1130
00:53:24,719 --> 00:53:26,639
Final four will be uplated this week. First of all,

1131
00:53:26,679 --> 00:53:29,000

00:53:29,000 --> 00:53:32,079
continue to do so. Obviously, the NCAA Final Four Saturday,

1133
00:53:32,119 --> 00:53:34,440
the Finals Monday. But I'm also I did both in

1134
00:53:34,480 --> 00:53:36,679
it quarterfinal games last week we went three and one

1135
00:53:36,760 --> 00:53:38,360
on those, so I'm going to try to give you

1136
00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:41,079
the n t semis as well. Believe it's on Saturday

1137
00:53:41,119 --> 00:53:43,199
and then the finals are Sunday. It's kind of kind

1138
00:53:43,199 --> 00:53:45,199

1183
00:55:49,480 --> 00:55:52,400
So let's do some free place here, Dan, and then

1184
00:55:52,400 --> 00:55:54,559
we'll open up a baseball before we get out of here.

1185
00:55:54,599 --> 00:55:57,519
Speaker 2: So oh yes, the unboxing it pisses everyone off.

1186
00:55:57,599 --> 00:56:01,760
Speaker 4: Let's go baby, Let's go.

1187
00:56:01,679 --> 00:56:05,559
Speaker 1: To Twins and Roils. I like Boobach over Bubik over

1188
00:56:05,639 --> 00:56:07,960
four and a half. K's this play went fifteen and

1189
00:56:08,039 --> 00:56:10,119
five last year. I think I think it should be

1190
00:56:10,159 --> 00:56:11,760
five and a half. So if it's four and a half,

1191
00:56:11,800 --> 00:56:14,960
I'll take it. He did pitch last May against Minnesota

1192
00:56:15,039 --> 00:56:17,280
had nine strikeouts. Take with that what you want. But

1193
00:56:17,639 --> 00:56:20,639
the Twins are striking out over ten times per game

1194
00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:24,159
through three games, so small sample size, but that's a

1195
00:56:24,159 --> 00:56:26,719
team that's swinging a lot. So I think boobag over

1196
00:56:26,760 --> 00:56:29,599
four and a half. Case Rudy go Bear over twelve

1197
00:56:29,639 --> 00:56:31,280
and a half points. He's gone over in four out

1198
00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:35,119
of five. I think Anthony Edwards is coming back. If not,

1199
00:56:35,320 --> 00:56:37,480
this really helps it. But he had twenty two the

1200
00:56:37,559 --> 00:56:40,280
last time played Dallas, Dallas beat up, not playing for much.

1201
00:56:40,400 --> 00:56:42,599
He's making over six shots per game. He's adding a

1202
00:56:42,599 --> 00:56:46,280
couple of free throws in there. So and then Jonathan

1203
00:56:46,519 --> 00:56:50,360
Aronda over just will have a hit. He's got a

1204
00:56:50,440 --> 00:56:52,639
hit in all three games. And he's facing Kyle Harrison,

1205
00:56:53,199 --> 00:56:55,800
who's making his Brewers' debut. This guy gave up twelve

1206
00:56:55,880 --> 00:56:58,440
runs a nine point two innings, and he's three for

1207
00:56:58,559 --> 00:57:02,039
five against lefties this season. So I like finding these

1208
00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:05,920
I like finding these streaks in the prop market where

1209
00:57:05,920 --> 00:57:08,519
we can just keep riding. So we're on a playing

1210
00:57:08,519 --> 00:57:09,880
pretty pretty pretty good here.

1211
00:57:10,960 --> 00:57:12,000
Speaker 3: All right, Dan, you ready?

1212
00:57:13,159 --> 00:57:16,280
Speaker 4: We got Dodgers over Guardians from Christina for the limit.

1213
00:57:16,119 --> 00:57:19,599
Speaker 1: Dodgers over Guardians, Bald, What do we.

1214
00:57:19,559 --> 00:57:21,280
Speaker 2: Got, la Dodgers?

1215
00:57:21,559 --> 00:57:24,559
Speaker 4: Yeah, just a modest minus one ninety four shop around

1216
00:57:24,639 --> 00:57:25,679
minus one eighty.

1217
00:57:28,079 --> 00:57:29,519
Speaker 1: Yeah, not bad, not bad.

1218
00:57:29,599 --> 00:57:31,840
Speaker 2: Let's go Christina.

1219
00:57:31,920 --> 00:57:35,880
Speaker 1: All right, we're continuing to open up. I got three

1220
00:57:35,920 --> 00:57:41,719
more left. These are mystery autographed baseballs. If you guys

1221
00:57:41,719 --> 00:57:44,760
don't know, I had a bunch of points a David

1222
00:57:44,760 --> 00:57:48,400
Buster's card from a previous TV show that I hosted,

1223
00:57:48,519 --> 00:57:50,519
And so I went and got a bunch of these baseballs,

1224
00:57:50,679 --> 00:57:55,400
and uh, we opening and hopefully we get a surprise.

1225
00:57:55,519 --> 00:57:58,559
Dan looks up what they're selling for on eBay, had

1226
00:57:58,599 --> 00:58:01,280
a couple of really good gems. So here we go.

1227
00:58:03,880 --> 00:58:06,079
I hope this road one.

1228
00:58:07,880 --> 00:58:08,239
Speaker 3: All right.

1229
00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:12,199
