So apparently, back in the day, they wore knee pads in the NCAA Basketball Tournament.

It was impressive how dialed in the sharps were last night to the Miami v. Notre Dame game. They were taking the Over at 50.5 or less, and the Under at 51.5 or more. And yes, the game ended at 51. 🙌 Expertise, analytics and professional grade tools matter.

Why are so few sports bettors profitable? They don't take the time to understand the math. And unfortunately, the media is often just as lazy. Take @ESPN below. They apparently don't realize they've transcribed the odds. -115 = an implied 53.5% chance of winning. -105 = 51.2%. 🤯

Buried within the BS Republican Budget bill is a provision that harms poker players and those who gamble by limiting loss deductions. I’m working on a legislative fix that fairly treats gaming losses in the tax code.

Justin Thomas' first 5 turns at this year's British Open: 33, 35, 45, 33, 31. Serious question: Has anyone ever shot a 45 on 9 in a major and been in contention? #BritishOpen #royaltroon

So this happened last night. I had the Celtics to Win parlayed with Derrick White > 10 pts. Both were losing bets with 0.2 seconds left, then luck went my way. #betresponsibly and #enjoythegame

Shakespeare taught us to beware the ides of March and most people associate that day with March 15th. I am starting to think March 10th is the modern day equivalent. 3/10/20 -- the day I packed up my office in preparation for Covid lockdowns. 3/10/23 -- the day SVB goes down.

Happy Sports Equinox! Today is the 27th time in history that the "Big Four" leagues (NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB) are all in action on the same day.

I think this was a typo from ESPN, but there seems to be some truth to it.

This is why the NBA has a problem, but also why gaming can offer a solution. Without a predictive sport element (free to play or real money), this type of effort is unwatchable.
