This is the Sports Gambling Podcast live on VSiN. These sports betting network, here are your hosts, Sean Green and Ryan Kramer. I can't believe we're letting these guys on my network.

**Sean Green** (0:19)
Welcome everyone to the Sports Gambling Podcast live here on VSiN. I'm Sean stacking the money green, filling in for my partner in picks. Ryan Kramer is the great C J Sullivan. What's happening? CJ.

**CJ Sullivan** (0:31)
What's up, Sean? Fantastic. Good to be here in the studio doing some great sweats here in the sports.

**Sean Green** (0:36)
Oh yeah. Well, let's, let's start with it. Cause preseason action. I fell in love with drew Al and the Steelers. I was on follow the money earlier, making a catch. Oh, Ricky, the year a hundred to one. And then he just looks like complete garbage. Unfortunately, get shut out by the jets. Not a good, not a good outcome there.
I mean, I still am somewhat optimistic.

**SPEAKER_1** (1:01)
Yeah. He didn't look bad.

**CJ Sullivan** (1:02)
There's a lot of penalties there. I was on the over.

**Sean Green** (1:06)
I was on Steelers plus one and a half.

**CJ Sullivan** (1:07)
You're on the over, which looks fantastic. Two minutes into the game. It was seven. Nothing. Gino drives him down. Here we go. And then that was the last play of football that happened for the next 58 minutes.

**Sean Green** (1:17)
Yeah, it was a, it was a, it was a pretty ugly game, but NFL preseason, we got a, we got Packers Broncos live in game. I'm laying the six with the Broncos. Feels like everyone is riding this idea of Sean Payton, really caring and watching the game though, it did seem like there was some energy in that. It was Patrick Sertan was lighten up guys.

**CJ Sullivan** (1:38)
It was playoff atmosphere there in Colorado. I mean, there may be, yeah. All the starters were in there. Like both teams first, Jordan Love was out there and they were popping each other hard. And it was like, wow, this is not the Steelers jets game.

**Sean Green** (1:53)
No, no Steelers jets game was complete opposite. Gino had one good drive. Then they brought in a club neck and you saw some Zappie, just really bad quarterback play, but it's the NFL preseason. It is fun to bet on it. We're going to be breaking down some NFL preseason picks. We're going to be talking to a little fantasy NFL props with Jeff Erickson later on.
Of course. So from prop points, we got sports betting blackjack on the card. We're going to be talking college hoops with Colby dance, tail of the tape. We got it all here. Looking forward to it.

**CJ Sullivan** (2:23)
Real quick fun story. Off of football here because we're also sweating some baseball. Yeah. I mean, it is the season.
And I was blown away about the live numbers that was going on in baseball.

**Sean Green** (2:34)
I mean, hanging out. If you never hung out with CJ in a sports book, I recommend it. Especially if he's got a good view of the live odds. Because every time the live number popped up, that was a big dog. CJ's like, oh, it looks pretty good. Maybe you should fire.

**CJ Sullivan** (2:49)
I got to hit up the account. So I was on the Phillies run line tonight.

**Sean Green** (2:52)
Yes.

**CJ Sullivan** (2:54)
Minus 130 minus one and a half.
Wasn't looking good. All game was back and forth. The fair. But every time a live number would pop up, the Cardinals just had like this huge number plus 450 plus 580 And it's a one run game. I'm like, this seems out of whack, right? I should be on these Cardinals.

**Sean Green** (3:11)
And then you pointed out nothing worse that if you take, if you're on the Phillies run line, laying the one and a half, then you buy back on the Cardinals money line. And then we get a Phillies one run.

**CJ Sullivan** (3:24)
Well, so this is what happens. So the Cardinals kept taking the lead back. I'm like, man, I should have had the card. I knew I should have took it like three times. It kept going back and forth. So then it goes into extra innings. I go upstairs to the room to do my more, do my ritual meditation before the show here. And I'm just getting changed.
And I look out the window, which has a beautiful view of Stadium Swim, a giant movie screen. And all I see is the Phillies still bring a walk off home run. I'm like, oh my God, Ghost Runner. They covered the run line. Immediately you text me, don't look at the Phillies score.
