[00:35] doing? Am I live? No. Zoom out. Let's see if this is working. Hopefully the quality is okay. Let's see what we can do here. [snorts]

[00:55] know and let's get it rolling. and let's get it rolling. So, I should be live, I hope. And what some bets. I've been trying to deposit

[01:08] money in Bovvada, but dude, sending crypto has been a little bit of a pain. So, I put some money in Cali. What else did I put money in? I love you, Alex. Um, what are the new implied odds? I assume people are asking about

[01:23] underdogs. So, let's just take a look right here. Apparently, they improved their payouts for everybody. Um, which hopefully they did. Hopefully, there's hopefully they did. Hopefully, there's not a reason. What is going on?

[01:35] Why is this all Let's go to NBA, [snorts] dude. It is 3.5x. So, what is the implied odds? Somebody asked. And let's go through the math quickly. So, minus 114 - 115 14.8 8 for two pick

[01:55] entries and then there's a three pick. Let's do the math. So, dude, two pick entries are going to be [ __ ] dope on Underdog Fantasy. I mean, granted, I'm Underdog Fantasy. I mean, granted, I'm still going to be limited, but whatever.

[02:09] What about three mans? Three mans minus 115. So, two mans I think are the best type of slip on underdog, which is actually a little bit wild, but it is just what it is. You can deposit through match pay on Bovvada. They accept zel,

[02:25] dude. So, Underdog Fantasy, shout out Underdog, I guess. I mean, if they could unlimit me, that would be sick. Minus 115 odds for two mans and three mans now. I mean, that's pretty pretty pretty good. Pretty good. Pretty good. Um, but

[02:41] what was I talking about? Finding some bets. So, let's see what we can do. Um, again, I still haven't been able to get money in Bovvada. It's been such a pain, bro. Why don't they just let you deposit with a debit card? But I

[02:56] got some money in Cali. We got underdog. We got prize picks. It should be flex Friday. And it is. Flex Friday. 40% boost. Prize picks, I assume. Yeah,

[03:08] prize picks is still giving a shitty 3x payout. So, I don't know. I don't know. I'm honestly surprised underdog's making it that good, but it is what it is. So, the first player we're going to go with is Sadiq

[03:22] over two and a half assists. This is solid on prize picks. So, you can see his unders, you know, a heavy underdog, so he's more likely to go over. And prize picks, you know, is a fixed payout sports book. Uh, what's up, Alex? What's

[03:36] up, Rock the Colin? What happened to yesterday? Dude, I told you I forgot. Sorry. Uh, what did I do yesterday? I was going to live stream and then I ordered 30 chicken nuggets from Chick-fil-A

[03:49] [snorts] and I completely forgot to live stream and I completely forgot to live stream um because I ended up taking a nap. So, wow. Okay. So, okay. Let's just start getting a slept locked in.

[04:03] Um so, I'm going to do flex Friday first. And honestly, I'm just going to rip through this stuff. So, if you want a tail, move quick. Play number one. Dean Wade over four and a half rebounds plus assists. Clowny under 18 and a half

[04:16] plus assists. Clowny under 18 and a half PRs. I mean, I'm just didn't I'm kind of I'm trying to move through a bunch of sports books here. Isaiah Joe heavy. You know, he's an underdog to go over. We

[04:29] want to be on his under. Sometimes the values and weird markets like PAS, values and weird markets like PAS, points plus assists. Where are you, bro? Wait, where is Joe? Points plus assists. Here we go. So, I got three picks so

[04:43] far. This is for flex Friday. So, obviously it has to be it's got to be a flex play. Nas Reed under two and a half assists. Let's just finish this first slip. Okay, that sound good.

[04:58] Nas Reed under two and a half assists. So, now we got four plays. Uh, what do we think about this? I'm just taking a look. Yes, I don't know if I love pairing Isaiah Joe with the clowny play, dude. There's

[05:13] gonna be so much value on underdog. This is crazy. So, we'll do Hatchy under. I don't want to pair the others together because maybe a little bit uncorrelated. And then we have Con over 18 half. Nope, they bumped him. Um,

[05:30] and they bumped Dean Wade. Damn. So, Price is moving a little faster. Give me a sec. It's just taking too long. So, we could do I don't even know what this is. Hockey, which is starting soon. Let's go to Olympic hockey. Um, under three and a

[05:45] half shots on goal. FanDuel has him as a plus 128 underdog. So, I'm fine with that. And then we'll go back to Sadi Bay. And I'm trying to finish this slip. I'm sorry it's taking so long, bro. Where are you, baby? Sadique Bay over

[05:59] two and a half assists. Okay, so here's the slip. What do we think? any we're good. Yo, so here's the slip if you want to tail. Flex Friday 40% boost again. I'm in California currently,

[06:13] again. I'm in California currently, which is a little beat because they just like they got rid of Fliff, they got rid of Rebet. So like Koshi, Poly Market, Bovvada, these DFS apps is kind of what you're stuck with. [snorts]

[06:27] Um, so let's run this [ __ ] and let's go to a new book. Maybe we should do an underdog slip. That feels kind of fitting. Yo, can someone put a link in the chat? Alex, are two mans any good now that

[06:41] they that that that the payout increase? Yeah, I think twoman's are the best type of slip. Someone Thank you for God 7 for putting the link in the chat. Hi, Alex. What's up, Killer 11? I think two mans are the best type of slip on underdog

[06:53] are the best type of slip on underdog fantasy now. What's up, Killa 11? next? Is it fitting to just rip some underdog slips? I mean, I'm kind of open

[08:14] This is crazy. This is crazy. Someone lock it in, boys. Ooh, if you guys are new to underdog fantasy, this is going to be a book at least for a bit until you get limited. That's crazy. I still can't

[08:29] believe it. This is permanent, too, I think. Right. Is this permanent? Alex, do the math in the stream. It's very simple. One divided by 3.5 to the.5

[08:54] to Odds Jam? It's expensive. I don't know. know. It's permanent.

[19:35] I mean, if you really want to preserve accounts, try not to do obvious errors. That's a good way to ideally improve your probability of not getting limited. Jared McCain's on the Thunder now, as I learned on Tik Tok because he posted a

[19:51] lot of Tik Toks about getting traded and YouTube videos. about getting traded and YouTube videos. He's going to be a big YouTuber He's going to be a big YouTuber once he gets kicked out of the NBA

[22:49] books and options, but what I want to do is available. Who is Dean Wade?

[23:10] available. Dude, a onepoint discount is kind of a slap in the face, but we already took Johnson over 12 and a half and what's a very solid play to a half and what's a very solid play to pair with it and also the Wizards.

[23:25] going to be the And they already bumped Dean Wade. Damn, bro. Let's see. Annoying. So, let's go here to Ryan

[23:37] Annoying. So, let's go here to Ryan Rollins under and PRs. And then we'll do Rollins under and PRs. And then we'll do Chimera under and PRs as well. And this is just another play for like the

[23:53] for the discount or sorry, it's under 21 and a half Pas. O, but they're going to tell me I hate how they do this. They're going to say, "Oh, no, you got to do a two pick entry." So, it's like, okay, I'll guess

[24:05] I'll do a two pick entry. Also, that's that's pissing me off. $20 max and then it tells me $10 max.

[24:21] So, I just ran a two man. As you can see, I don't think there's any good things on sleeper. Use the MMA discount. When is you f to Use the MMA discount. When is you f to play UCLA? Bro, I go to I'm I'm on

[24:36] campus all the time. I love walking around UCLA. It truly is, in my opinion, the most beautiful school.

[24:51] What was your GPA? I don't remember my GPA. That is not a question I've been asked recently. asked recently. I think I had a solid GPA.

[25:05] I think I had a solid GPA. So, when I'm betting on cow sheet, I mean, I just recommend be a little careful with the liquidity Pakistan

[25:25] don't hate it or something like this. I mean, it's only $13. The reason I don't do a ton of betting on these peer-to-peer sites, I mean, especially on stream, is obviously it's [ __ ] peer-to-peer,

[25:39] bro. Like, once you bet it, the odds change.

[25:53] I kind of want to bet on Pakistan. I don't even know what it is. If anyone wants to take the remainder. Wait, what? What am I betting on? New Zealand. This is cricket, dude. It is crazy

[26:08] how much random [ __ ] you can bet on. Dollars earn interest. you can bet on. Dollars earn interest. When is this game? February 21st. When is this game? February 21st. So, this is tomorrow.

[26:34] couldn't point it out on a map, but I'll bet on them. bet on them. I think it's next to India.

[26:51] It's a country I've never been to. No, it's Oh [ __ ] It's between Afghanist Afghanistan, Iran, and India.

[27:05] live. Um, anyways, what are we talking about?

[27:19] Okay. So again, I think like Cali like I kind of try to avoid the high liquidity markets and obviously it depends. It also depends like how much liquidity is available on other books. I mean I feel

[27:33] like there's a lot of [ __ ] you want to consider. bets and stuff like that on on Calian Poly Market. You just need to be

[27:45] selective. You just need to be selective. Um, my dad's texting me

[28:12] Anyways, I'll try to stream later. I promise. What do you mean by selective? and not betting? I will die to protect Pakistan. Bovvada,

[28:40] nuke. I need to get money in here because I'm actually pretty excited about being able to do a bunch more sports books. Now, in my recommendation, what I've heard for Bovada is to prolong limits,

[28:53] avoid player props, bet them small, bet them in parlays, and kind of try to focus on mainline markets mainly. But I'll stream
