Thursday Night Football edition of Bet The Board with Todd Fuhrman and Payne Insider breaking down the Miami Dolphins trip to Cincinnati to take on the Bengals. Before the boys dive into the prime time TNF game they discuss the impact of J.J. Watt and Dez Bryant going down with significant injuries. The boys tackle all the biggest games on the NFL Week 4 betting board from Seahwaks-Jets to Chiefs-Steelers and even the London game between Indianapolis and Jacksonville. As always, Dave Mason from BetOnline.ag joins the show and talks about a massive beating his Sports Book took on the Falcons-Saints Monday Night Football total. One bettor using the re-bet functionality popped them 5 different times netting out over $72,000 in winnings alone – and we know the public piled on the over train, as well.

Week 3…what a shit show for some Superbowl contenders!!! There were pleasant surprises and alarming disappointments so to make sense of it all I turned the floor over to Payneinsider for an adulterated rant. Along with a recap of the weekend that was we shared our thoughts on Saints/Falcons and tipped our hand as to where the market might move on Week 4’s biggest games. Snowden got a thumbs up from both of us for entertainment value even if the accuracy left a whole lot be desired. Regardless the podcast dream team hammered out another comprehensive edition with the best gambling intel you’ll find anywhere on the net. The Takeaways from Week 3 • It’s not time to hit the panic button in the desert but the outlook for NFC favorite Arizona isn’t gumdrops and unicorns. Described as a “jelly donut” by Payneinsder, the Cardinals failed to match Buffalo’s intensity on Sunday putting forth an absolutely horrific effort. While it’s obviously not a death knell, the team picked by many to win the division and conference needs to take a good hard look in the mirror and figure out their identity. • Carson Wentz isn’t going to be a first ballot hall of famer after three games but his start in Philadelphia is something worth noticing. However Wentz’ job gets considerably easier when the defense plays as well as it has thus far. Jim Schwartz’ stop unit is on another level right now heading into the bye week and if they can keep performing so well the rookie quarterback will only be asked to play within himself rather than win games entirely on his own. • The Dolphins have major issues. Beating the expansion Cleveland Browns doesn’t provide a ton of confidence that Miami...

It’s about damn time the professionals start playing football that actually means something. Our preview podcast is officially in the rearview mirror with all hands on deck focused on isolating the best wagering opportunities for Week 1. Gone are familiar names like Brady and Manning (that Manning) from the betting board in two of the weekend’s marquee games. Reshuffled quarterbacks make some of the more mundane games rather intriguing if you ask me. Prices have been hung for nearly six months meaning a lot of value is already zapped from the market. However that didn’t stop Payne and myself from giving out a gem and getting Dave Mason’s perspective from behind the counter.

Citywide Survey
posted by Todd
Booking futures is free money for bookmakers willing to pay attention (barring the unforeseen ridiculous outcome like Leicester City winning the EPL). There’s no “right” or “wrong” way to establish a market however working under the business principle of stealing without a gun won’t get you a lot of repeat business. I spent the last few days driving around town comparing prices using NFL futures as my litmus test for the apples to apples comparison. Some of the numbers contained in the full graphic below were nothing short of staggering. Marquee establishments showed minimal regard for offering customers a fair shake in a betting market already known for giving the house a substantial advantage. The numbers color coded in green are the best prices currently available in town. I realize the graphic is a little difficult to read but I wanted to show every major casino operator’s numbers listed side by side. (Prices included were available from either the sheets in each casino or their mobile application at time of press) Listed below each casino’s numbers is their overall hold percentage. Hold percentage is defined as the percentage of money won compared to total volume wagered. Despite what some casino operators try to tell you nobody in this business has ever paid their bills in hold percentage. Normally there are two different philosophies book managers utilize: higher volumes with lower hold or retain a bigger piece of a small pie with high hold and low volume. The hold percentage numbers listed here are theoretical hold. With 32 teams (theoretically) having a chance to win the title each team’s championship prospects are ultimately worth a different value to the house. The lower the hold percentage the better a bet for the player. Each casino raises...
Superbowl 50

Superbowl Sunday might be the biggest betting day of the entire season but for those in the industry it’s bittersweet. We’re forced to say good bye to football season for seven months as we shift our betting energies to much less worthy pursuits. For the final show of the season we brought on the hired guns. Naturally industry insider PayneInsider brought it like he does every week and Dave Mason shared everything you need to know from how the house views the big game. We also went deep into the rolodex to bring back a man of the people BarStoolBigCat. I think you’ll enjoy our Superbowl spectacular to put a bow on a beautiful season. Special thanks to you, all of the listeners than make this podcast worth doing every single week. We also want to thank BetOnline for their season long sponsorship that includes generous offers to our listeners searching for a new book.
