[00:15] Stefan Castle over 1.5 threes on FanDuel, No Vig, and ProfitX at +126, FanDuel, No Vig, and ProfitX at +126, +122, +117. So right around +120. And then you see we can grab Maxey over 26.5 and we can get that on either FanDuel or
[00:30] No Vig at right at -120. So if you went ahead and you played this on FanDuel or available in your state, you would get +311 odds and you'd walk away with $311 in profit, which is $60 for the same exact play, aka 20% more profit just for
