Sports Betting Winter: The Final Stretch

If you’re an everyday bettor, the last few weeks have been pretty barren.

But baseball is back from the All-Star break, and we’re surviving on tennis, the Euros and Copa America, and golf.

But we’re almost back to the hottest time in betting, with the NFL and NCAAF getting closer to back in action.

NFL Season Is Around The Corner…

45 days until the NFL season kicks off.

As it stands, these are the Super Bowl favorites.

The Chiefs are favored for a 3-peat with the 49ers hot on their tail.

With a healthy Aaron Rodgers, is there any value in the Jets at +2200?

33 Days Until College Football Kicks Off

Week 0 kicks off on August 24th, highlighted by Florida State and Georgia Tech in Ireland.

The game you’ll want to keep a close eye on is Georgia (AP #4) Clemson (AP #20) on August 31.

  • Kickoff at 12:00pm EST in Death Valley.

Paris 2024 Olympics Women’s Tournament

DraftKings Tennis Feature Making Waves📱

Released just in time for Wimbledon, this Flash Bet feature from DraftKings allows bettors to wager on live points.

The match graphics displays real-time ball movement, serve details, points won, and court type.

In my opinion, DraftKings nailed this UI. Simple, but effective and fun to follow.

Not to mention the fact that you can see how many bettors are along for the ride!?

Strategy Station 🚉

Last week, I did a writeup on sports betting arbitrage and how bettors can take advantage.

It covers:

  • The concept of arbitrage, and the various ways it can be done

  • How to take advantage of boosts, bonuses, and deposit matches to increase your bankroll

  • The value of taking advantage of this strategy over time

It’s not glamorous by any means, but I’ve used to to add hundreds of dollars to my bankroll over the years.

What Do You Want to See in ‘Building Bankroll’?

I want this to be the best newsletter in all of sports betting, but I can’t do that without you.

Take a quick minute to fill out this survey and let us know what you thought of this writeup..
