Thanks for the feedback on the Casino!

I did a lot of numbers based work on the Casino this season and am proud of the numbers that we've created this season based solely on statistical values, though unfortunately even with a variance, STHS is stupid and can ruin everything

If you have any feedback about the Casino, please let me know, I'd love to hear it and improve season after season. It is my goal to create tight betting lines that are exciting and fun to follow all season long.

Sadly I can't just hand out money but some of them do feel that way lol

I still want parlays.

Like, if I could put $1 million down on a group of over/under bets that pay out more money the more teams I add to it, yes please. Typical parlay bet odds in Vegas:

2 Team Parlay 3 to 1
3 Team Parlay 7 to 1
4 Team Parlay 13 to 1
5 Team Parlay 25 to 1
6 Team Parlay 50 to 1

The chances of someone nailing 6 of these with Simon is high, but imagine if we got a $50 Million winner?!? That’d be amazing.

I’d feel extremely confident with my 3 team parlay of Calgary over, Minnesota Under, Tampa Bay Over. Could win 7-1 if I got all right!

Anyway, that should be the wave of the future. That’d be so much fun.

You'll be happy to know that, barring any serious issues with the statistical numbers i used for the over/under predictions, that parlays will likely make an appearance next season! It is something we have discussed and hope to implement very soon.

Thrilled to hear it. I talk to Izzy about it a bunch in discord chats. Can’t wait for that.

Nice podcast @JKortesi81! I appreciate the kind remarks as well.

Cool podcast. Thanks for the kind words @JKortesi81


RE: The JoeKast #15!! - SpartanGibbles - 08-06-2019

Great episode. Will have to remember to ask some questions for next time.

I'm sure the Minny under is one of the safer bets but I had to take the over. I just never feel right betting against my own team.

I will offer this tidbit. There was much more to the Nova trade than just him getting up in age.

That wine tournament sounds like a literal hot mess, with a bunch of wine swilling football,players running around in the heat. Oy vey

And how in the hell did you get Bobby Watson in the fifth round!?!? That is craziness!
