## Transcript

What's up, guys? How's everyone doing? I figured I would rip a I would rip a quick live stream. Um, let me back this camera up a bit.
Um, let me back this camera up a bit. This is too zoomed in on me. [clears throat] What's up, guys? How's everyone doing? everyone doing? What is up, boys? I bet on the Lakers. I
can't even lie. They're pretty big underdogs. I mean, plus what were they? underdogs. I mean, plus what were they? Plus 545. But regardless, I figured I'd do a quick stream. There's um there's some good promos on some of these DFS
some good promos on some of these DFS apps like Pix Prize Pics has a discount [snorts] for Taco Tuesday. So, I just figured I'd rip a stream.
start out on? What addiction is hardest to quit? Exusers confess.
>> Let's see if we can find some good stuff, which I'm sure we will be able to do. So, what's up, guys? Hello, Goat. Hard Rock Value. You're back in Florida. Same Airbnb as yesterday. VIP me. Let's go, King. Tell Stephanie I said hi. I'm
not telling my sister that you SAID HI. GOOD TRY, THOUGH, MAN. Everyone just wants me for my sister, but let's see what we can do. Um, what do we want to start out with? Does
what do we want to start out with? Does anyone have a preference? [snorts] Again, they got a discount on Devin Bucker. I don't know how long this
not a lot of NBA today. Tomorrow there's a [ __ ] ton of NBA. So, you guys, if you guys want it, I can do a much longer live stream tomorrow. I think we have
damn Lakers, bro. That's crazy. These books have started to bump things fast. I mean, you can see on flip and then we're going to do the prize picks play. They already bumped the Lakers to plus f plus plus 455. Damn, my head is too big.
They already bumped the Lakers to plus 455. And what did I get them at? Plus 455. And what did I get them at? Plus 545. That's called getting value, boys. Um, but how many NBA games do we have tomorrow? Yeah, tomorrow we have 14 NBA
games, so we should definitely rep stream. [snorts] but let's get into it. So, let's do a prize picks play first, just cuz they
have the discount. I mean, there's not a ton of great value on prize picks right but there is some tennis. So, you could run Booker with this random [ __ ] tennis play. You can see it right here. Elliot Sabrezy under 13 total games.
So, this is the first play I'm going to go with. I mean, you can see right here, right? Under is heavily favored on Pinnacle. Pinnacle's a pretty sharp a pretty smart book, right? Minus 150 favorite to go under.
Okay, so this looks great. Under's heavily favored. Um, pair. So, let's see what we can do. Boys, [snorts]
you like my shirt? I was filming at FIU today, and that school sucks, dude. FIU is a public campus. I got kicked off campus, which was some [ __ ] Um,
what do we want to do? Give me one sec. Sorry, this is taking way too long. Dude, FIU is the most bureaucratic school in the world. So, I guess the final play you could go with is Naji Marshall. Under 20 and a half PRs,
points plus rebounds. So, this is in the Mavs game. Where is it? Right here. Dude, I set up to film and they kicked me out. But FIU is a public campus. I
And nobody could get me approval. There's like they send me to 10 different people. No, you got to talk to this person. The social media lady. How media lady? And then they send me to someone else. But regardless, Naji
Marshall's under heavily favored. This looks solid. Booker slip if someone wants to put a link in the chat. Granted, I already ran the Booker discount. So, I posted that in the SEA Discord, um the Odds Jam
get one final play that we want to go with. So, let's go to prize picks and let's do pre-match. And dude, there's already some crazy value for tomorrow, which is a little
place bets for tonight, but this actually looks like a crazy line discrepancy already for the games on Wednesday. I think we have basketball till Thursday and then on unfortunately it's um it's
All-Star break weekend. But this is what I'm getting locked in. If someone wants to put a link in the chat, that would be great. Three pick entry on prize picks. great. Three pick entry on prize picks. Jaylen Wells over 14 and a half PRs.
This play looks really good. It's just the odds jam fantasy optimizer. You can books have already posted lines for Wednesday. Um, but the other books have his line at 16 and a half. So, this is what I'm going to go with. And I'm just
going to get this locked in. And then I want to move on to pick six and try to nuke something or something like that. [snorts]
back to Virginia. Alex, I love riding dudes with you. Do you have to pay for odds Jam now? No. I got a free subscription. But I seriously [ __ ] hate FIU, dude. There's like 45 abortion protests,
but I go to film and they got a problem with it. The second I'm setting up, [ __ ] lady walks up, complains. She gets her manager. Her manager doesn't know what to do. Gets security.
such a [ __ ] show, bro. These bureaucratic ass colleges. And we wonder why college is so expensive. What's the Discord? The SA Discord. FIU hoes are
Discord? The SA Discord. FIU hoes are mid compared to Miami hoes. Gay schools. Man, I was going to do some filming at Miami, but Miami is a private school, so I just assumed it would be it would be harder to do. Um,
but anyways, let's see if we can get a nuke. I know like this is kind of you're kind of like middling the prize picks discount if you want to take Booker under. Um Devin Booker under 36 and a half Pas.
six if we can find one. So we could run this with the WBY discount. So we have this with the WBY discount. So we have Booker under 36 and a half Pas. Again, it's a little annoying because I guess he's the discount on prize picks. You're
like Price has his line way [ __ ] lower. They have him at 34 and a half Pas. So, we're getting really good value on this play. We just need to find some stuff that we can pair. Oh my gosh, there's a fair amount of
Oh my gosh, there's a fair amount of stuff. So, let's just see. What do we want to do? What else do we like for tonight to run Under. Sorry.
Sorry. And we got to find a couple pairs. Yeah, we can go with one more pair for the discount. So, we got Booker under the discount. So, we got Booker under Jordan Goodwin over in PRs.
So, here's what I'm going to run. I mean, you got a little bit maybe a mean, you got a little bit maybe a positive correlation. likely to go over. Yo, so this is what I'm going to run for the DraftKings pick
six discount. Get that [ __ ] locked in. Get that [ __ ] locked in. Um, get that [ __ ] locked in. Follow me on Instagram. Life is good, man.
Don't fade, Booker. Middle betting parlays feels awkward. Alex, prize pick slip, please. We just did a prize pick slip. I just gave you guys a prize pick slip right here. Again, the Jaylen Wells play here is actually really good. Over
play here is actually really good. Over 14 and a half PRs. let's get this [ __ ] locked in. So, $20 max on these discounts, which isn't horrible. And let me put a link in the chat. So, this is DraftKings pick six.
So, let me go back here. What's up, guys? Have you done any weather betting? No. But someone did give me the content idea that I should post on idea that I should post on uh or that I should do Cali or I should
uh or that I should do Cali or I should do like Yeah, I'll give you $100 if you guess the color of the next car. How long will this light last? Like, I feel like there's a lot of interesting betting content you can do.
betting content you can do. outside of just streaming bets. But streaming bets is fun because I like to bet. I like to have some bets on. Yes. Add Kali to Odds Jam. I'm pretty sure Kali's on Odds Jam, bro. [snorts]
correlation. Eh, whatever. With the Wembi discount, it's still solid. You [snorts] and then they have a discount. [ __ ] They they have a discount on Booker as well. So, you could middle it. I mean,
well. So, you could middle it. I mean, it's kind of up to you, but I wouldn't mind looking at another book. Let's see what we got.
you guys want to do a better slip? What do we want to do? to be streaming today just because there's not as much value. I mean, I'm
down to shoot the [ __ ] and answer talk about whatever, but I think I missed a about whatever, but I think I missed a lot of the good bets, unfortunately. However, some people are asking about Hard Rock plays. I am in Florida,
so I'm not sure. Like I've used Hard Rock in Virginia. I'm not sure if I can just log in to the same account, but like it looks like there's some good [ __ ] on Jared Vanderbilt. Under and PRs,
under and rebounds plus assists, Devin Booker. I mean, I don't know. Jared Vanderbilt unders probably look best on Hard Rock if you're looking for a Hard Rock play. It's a cross market, so it's arbitrage,
which is exactly what we want to see, right? Because whenever there's arbitrage, one of the two bets has to be profitable.
sorry, what am I saying? Profitex and Hard Rock are crossed. So, like you could take if you're on Hard Rock, uh, Vanderbelt under and RAS minus 110 under Vanderbelt under and RAS minus 110 under in PRs, points plus rebounds, um, minus
115. Those are probably the two best plays you can go with. But what I want plays you can go with. But what I want to do is maybe we try to Well, first things first, we're going to bet on Duke. So, let's go here. So, this
is on rebet. Granted, they lost the game to UNCC. I was at that game
and I have no idea how they lost. Where is Duke, bro? Today at 910 scheduled. Why don't I see this game? So, let me try searching it. Duke versus
try searching it. Duke versus Pittsburgh. First half point spread. So, Pinnacle has Duke minus 10 and a half as a much bigger favorite. Where is this a much bigger favorite. Where is this game, bro? Come on.
dude. Come on. Come on. Come on. Here we go. So, there's 17 on the spread, spread. I'm betting the first half spread. Um, where is it?
see the first half spread at nine and a half. I don't So, maybe they bumped it. I don't know. I mean, nine and a half is a better line, but obviously it's worse odds. I don't see alternate first half spread lines
on this sports book. Maybe I'm going crazy, but whatever. Um, crazy, but whatever. Um, [snorts]
anyways, what do we want to do? So, maybe let's what do we want to do? So, maybe let's try to do a better slip if we can. This play looks solid on a pick six as well if you did want to run the booker
discount. Naji Marshall, we're already on his under in like PRs or whatever. Under [snorts] 15 and a half points. You can see here every sports book has his under heavily favored. So Naji Marshall under and point seem
So Naji Marshall under and point seem solid. But let's see what else there is. solid. But let's see what else there is. What do we want to go with?
And ideally we, you know, we want to do a five hook entry. Although I don't know if there's going to be enough good [ __ ] but we'll see.
We could try to do some live stuff, too, but live betting is tough. And I try to do it only when
Okay, let me reload this. Sorry. So, we have Naji Marshall under in PAS and then I'm going to read the chat for a sec. What's his assist line? Pretty low. Okay,
then we're going to take Cooper Flag over in points. That seems solid. I don't think we have anything on flag right now. Nope. Um,
Um, so I got two picks so far, see what else we got. Royce O'Neal under. Okay, I'm fine with that.
through this slip as fast as possible. I'll probably try to include one live pick just because
outside of these plays. So, we got four picks so far. What do you have for us live? Let's see here. So, let me go to live. And ideally, we can find a game at halftime. Like live betting, in my
opinion, if you're live betting, you want to try to do it, you know, not want to try to do it, you know, not while the game is, you know, players running up and down the court. So, let's check the Rockets game since we're at a
timeout break. What's the best play in the Rockets game? Mattherin over 10 and a half points. And Mattherin just grabbed the rebound. So, we're going to go here. So, this is in the Rockets game. This is a live
play. And I'm going to take Mathan over. I don't know why my max bet size is $62, but whatever. Um, and this line looks decent. I mean,
you can see Matan's line is like 12 and a half, whatever. Dude, why are you saying my location's wrong? Come on, man. So, I'm just trying to submit it usually. There we go. Okay. Again, try
to put the link in the chat fast because these live lines kind of they they they these live lines kind of they they they sometimes move quick.
OddsJam again. We have Kelchi on Odds Jam. Alex, ask guys what they think girls body count is, bro. I think that would get me in trouble with my fiance.
That would get me in some trouble. Yo, so this was the slip again. Just if you slip. Okay, can someone put a link in the chat, can someone put a link in the chat, please? Link in the chat.
energy out of you. Arkansas would be a great school to film at. Will they kick me out? Alex, I got limited on Dabble. How do I fix that? Bro, I got banned on Dabble. Chris the First 93.
Hopefully. The rebet half spreads are always off by one point. I don't know what is going on. So now you can see Matarin, they finally adjusted him. Now they bumped him to 12 and a half. So there is some good live value on better.
But again, in my opinion, you want to try to do it at timeout breaks. Like Matarin, we got at 10 and a half. Now his line's 12 and a half. Pretty good in my opinion. Maybe we'll try to do another live slip.
Bro, there's a lot of um uh good dabble lines. South Carolina won't kick you out. Well, my sister went to South Carolina, so they better not [ __ ] kick me out. FIU was horrible, bro. It was horrible.
And of course, like there's like a billion abortion protests with pictures of dead kids, but
campus. It doesn't make any sense. [snorts] Doesn't make any sense, man.
What were you doing there? Just filming some content. Rebet Prop City. You got to do visit Louisville. Can I have some pick six plays? Yeah, we can look at pick six. Let's actually see here cuz we got like 24 minutes till this next game
starts. So, I'm going to try to rip until then and maybe we'll see some good [ __ ] pop up. Um,
discounts, too. Give me one sec. So, let's go over to sleeper because they had uh a few good discounts. It's kind of weird. Like, why can I bet college basketball
here on Sleeper, but I can't on prize picks in Florida? I have no idea. But let me do these slips real quick. Okay. Um, so the first play I'm going to go Um, so the first play I'm going to go with is Oka 4
going to pair this with the first sleeper discount.
literally hate this sports book so much. So, we got to find something else to So, we got to find something else to pair real quick. Come on, dude.
and a half points. Again, I don't know. I'm just like literally picking the plays with the best value. I'm a pretty pretty data driven sports better. You do tailing me on sleeper. Like they sometimes do bump these lines a little
bit quickly. So just make sure the payout is, you know, make sure the payout's roughly the same. Oh, here we go. Bro, now we got some [ __ ] popping up. Hard Rock PJ Washington under five and a
half rebounds. This play looks super good. Cross market arbitrage plus 125 on Hard Rock. Maybe I can log into Hard Rock. I should check.
I forget if I have money in there, but we'll see.
You have been opted in for your 2026 tax forms. Okay, I don't really give a [ __ ] Let's see if we can do something real quick. Cooper flag under. Daniel Gaffford under in points. I don't know if some lineup
news just came out in this game. Also, let's see here. If I go to real. So, now we have both the Rockets game.
Now we have both the Rockets game. So we have a fair amount of games at the quarter break and halftime. So usually that means you can get some pretty good that means you can get some pretty good lines. So let's just see here
play is Reed Shepard under 12 and a half P P RS. I don't see PRs. I only see PAS. So let me refresh this. Sorry. It's Durant.
looks solid. You can see other books have his line at 36 and a half. So now we want Reed Shepard. And this actually kind of has good correlation under 10 and a half points. And then we want to fade Kawaii PRs.
Yo, come on. So, this is going to be a three pick entry. I'm just doing a threeman on better. I know like all of these picks are super good live, but again, when I'm live betting, I really try to only do it
at like quarter breaks just because yeah, this [ __ ] flies when the game is going on like you know, it's just it's it's really hard. They're constantly that. [snorts] So, here we go. We are locked in.
>> [clears throat] >> Do you believe in overexposing? Did you ever come to five points? What do you mean? Did I ever come to five do you mean? Did I ever come to five points?
Jacksonville, Florida. I have not been to Jacksonville, Florida. to Jacksonville, Florida. Unfortunately, not yet.
think um I think In-N-Out's a little overrated. I'm more of a Shake Shack overrated. I'm more of a Shake Shack person. Have you made more live betting or pregame? Pregame for sure.
Is there no reduced payout for correlation? Five points is in Colombia. Oh, I think I have been. I mean, I went to Colombia because I visited my sister, to Colombia because I visited my sister, so I've been there. Um, dude, Naji
Marshall, his unders look good on Hard Rock under 14 and a half points. That looks ridiculous. I mean, you can see here like every [ __ ] sports book, massive favorite. And then Hard Rock's just chilling at plus 100.
minute bets we want to do real quick. Sorry guys, not as much NBA tomorrow or sorry, not as much NBA tonight, but tomorrow's live stream. You know, I'm going to be locked the [ __ ] in.
Did I miss any promos? Yo, so like we already have value coming up for tomorrow. [ __ ] yes. That's cool. Cade Cunningham for example. Yo, so if you were looking for a prize picks play, Kade Cunningham over
one and a half threes over is massively favored. Massively favored on every sports book. Minus 162 minus 175. That looks amazing. [snorts]
we want to do? We want to fade this tennis girl. You only have one data point here, but whatever. I like it. Fear. Nothing. And are there any good live lines at Halime? Because one of these
games is at halftime, I think. Let's see. Yeah. So, this game already restarted, but what about in the Knicks game?
Every other book has this line higher. Maybe we run it. How many does Seakum have right now? Again, like when I'm live betting, I try to just do like What the [ __ ] His line is not at 21 half, bro.
What? His line's at 28 half. Anyways, give me His line's at 28 half. Anyways, give me one sec. I'm gonna finish this slip. one sec. I'm gonna finish this slip. I promise. Okay. Uh Marvin Bagley under
just run the Booker discount if you slip looks very random, but sometimes it's where the best value is. Yo, wasn't this guy on the Wizards? Dude, the Wizards upgraded. Stephen A. Smith was
talking about how the Wizards maybe championship contenders now next year. Trey Young, Anthony Davis in his prime, perfectly healthy. The Wizards are going to be looking good.
I [clears throat] do hope the I hope the I hope the commanders figure it out, though. That's what I'm That's what I'm more worried about is I just feel like the commanders need to figure it out. Were there any other promos I
missed? Eh, nothing crazy. Sorry guys, I started streaming too late and there started streaming too late and there just wasn't as much NBA
banned? Five points in Colombia. What about five guys? I got banned on rebet. Yo, did anyone actually get banned on rebet?
baseball baseball doesn't have as many line discrepancies as the NBA. Like I think baseball like you'd rather have an NBA game as opposed to one baseball game. Like you'd rather bet on one NBA game versus one MLB game. My opinion.
But the perks of baseball is dude there's just so How many games are in the regular season? like 162. It's crazy. So, the perks of baseball are crazy. So, the perks of baseball are there's just a lot more games.
banned on rebet now? Yeah, I I didn't know that, but if that's true, I'm sorry to hear that. Cozy Trash Fire, I took them for 40k and they won't let me play them for 40k and they won't let me play anymore. Yo, Cozy Trashfire,
got a rebet account. Oh [ __ ] Yo, I forgot to bet this [ __ ] prize pick forgot to bet this [ __ ] prize pick slip. My bad. So, I just bet the prize pick slip if you wanted to tail it. I thought I bet
you wanted to tail it. I thought I bet it, but I guess I didn't. Um, on rebet? Is Bad Bunny the goat? I mean, I got I
got no problem with Bad Bunny. My sister loves Bad Bunny, but dude, I have no look like the type of guy to learn a language? No, I took Russian in high school. Alex, why did you take Russian? Because it was the easiest language.
Shout out to my teacher, Elizabeth Sandstrom. She was the best. Every day in Russian class, I would just show up and you'd get to like make Russian food. I barely know anything in Russian. I know. Hi, Strasvich vida
Alex, but I know very little Russian. But it was the easiest language in my high school. I mean, it's one of the hardest languages to actually learn. But and then I tried to learn Portuguese in college cuz I was dating a girl who
spoke Portuguese. And then that relationship didn't work out. So now I know like how to say hi in two languages. And I don't know any other language. I'm American as [ __ ] bro.
bro. Damn. Adam502 knows some Russian. I got banned doing NFL and NBA totals. [ __ ] man. Are
we invited to your wedding? Probably not. Rebet is so easy. I wish I wasn't limited. Why hasn't prize picks paid me out for my slip that hit yesterday?
Why hasn't prize picks paid me out for my slip that hit yesterday? I don't know man. Um I'm not prize pick support. Unfortunately I am not prize pick
support. Dude, I feel like prize picks usually pays pretty fast, but the limits are what's [ __ ] brutal on prize picks. Anyways, I'm gonna call it a day for now. Sorry for God. I know you're just
hopping on, but NBA is basically over. I'll be streaming tomorrow. Um, see you guys. Shout out FIU. [ __ ] worst school in the world. Do not send your kids to FIU. How do How do How did
I get kicked out of a public campus? They let every abortion freak, every every protest in the world, Iran, it's all at FIU. But I try to set up a little
table and that's where they draw the line and kick me out and escort me out. It's [ __ ] ridiculous. It's the joke of a school. It's like, dude, I'm [ __ ] doing you a favor. I'm gonna get You
should be lucky I came here. [snorts] [snorts] Um.
