[upbeat music] The numbers told the story, they always do. He's one of those idiots who believe in analytics. This is a Numbers Game with Gil Alexander on VSiN.
0:10
Hour number two of a Numbers Game at VSiN, the sports betting network, vsin.com, Game Plus, iHeartRadio, YouTube TV, Sirius XM channel 158.
0:18
We do not care which way you take us in, any one of those ways, any one of those platforms. We just appreciate it that you do one of them. That's right.
0:28
Once again, Kelly Biddle is still looking for the, uh, the person who- Still waiting... puts them all on at the same time. Still waiting for that video.
0:34
Well, well, it's gonna, that, that would take a lot of coordination. You gotta coordinate. It really would. I haven't even thought through all of it yet, 'cause you'd even, even the phone that you film it on, right?
0:43
Oh, yeah. Record it on. Like, then you'd have to have another phone and use- Correct. Yeah. Correct. It's a lot. Correct. It's a lot, but it would be impressive. Uh, coming up this hour, Ben Wilson.
0:52
We'll discuss, uh, Wimbledon with Ben. Now that the ladies semis have been set, Belinda Bencic takes down Mirra Andreeva in straights, both, uh, sets ending in tiebreakers.
1:03
So it's Bencic and Swiatek in one semi, uh, and it's, uh, [smacks lips] Sabalenka and Anisimova in the other one. You nervous? Oh, I'm always nervous. Anybody can win it.
1:16
I mean, Belinda Bencic, y- for those who are like, "Oh, are you happy that Belinda Bencic- She had a good Indian Wells, right? Belinda Bencic's a great player.
1:23
Belin- Belinda Bencic won the gold medal, you may remember, at Tokyo, Tokyo Olympics in 2020. Uh, she was once the number four player in the world. Uh, this is during the pandemic, so it sort of gets lost in history.
1:37
Uh, is a great player, and through the years, those who have, have listened to the tennis handicap here, I've backed Bencic on a lot of things.
1:44
And now she, this is, and you, you just wonder when it's gonna come back for her, and here she is at the w- at the, uh, semifinals at Wimbledon. This is Iga's deepest run into Wimbledon ever.
1:54
Um, so that's gonna be a, a great match. And then, uh, Sabalenka and Anisimova, man, [exhales] that's gonna be something else, 'cause Amanda's got, uh, she's got great grass numbers, and, um, that's a great final four.
2:07
Right now the, uh, the men's semis, excuse me, the men's quarters, I keep saying that.
2:10
The men's quarters, the second half of the men's quarters has begun, and, uh, we are on serve in set number one between Ben Shelton and Jannik Sinner last I checked. We 3-3? What are we right now on that?
2:23
Uh, they're commercial break. I don't know. Yeah. Chris Felica has texted in, though, for, uh, to get the exact verbiage correct of what he yells. Oh, I'm sorry, yes. If he, uh...
2:33
Well, okay, let me make sure, let me make sure I hear it. Yes, 'cause I knew I messed up the verbiage. That's true. Okay, if he has a bet on the horse that's in the lead, it's, "Get brave." Okay, that's not the one.
2:42
Okay. What, what's the other one? It, which it, I'm glad he followed up with explanations- Yeah... 'cause I definitely would have asked this. Yeah.
2:47
He goes, uh, "Imploring the horse to get to the wire," that's- Correct... that's what he's gonna get brave. I think I'm more the one where- Okay... the horse is trailing. Yeah, this one's weird.
2:54
Uh, it will be, quote, "Ask this," and then insert number of the horse, so three, "Ask this three," meaning I'm looking for the horse to make its move. Yeah, it's something weird like that. I don't understand that one.
3:05
And then, it, it doesn't make any sense. Yeah, I don't understand that one. Yeah, but h- to him it makes sense. Like, he wants the horse to ask for, like, an opening so he can make a move? [laughs] I have no idea.
3:11
Like, "Please, excuse me." I have no idea. He just becomes a different person. "Please move to the right, please." We get tweets at Beating the Book.
3:17
By the way, JVT to talk, uh, rapid fire NBA season win totals with us as well, uh, later on in the show. Uh, we get tweets at Beating the Book.
3:24
Montreal Max refer, uh, reacting to Bencic's win, "Boom, baby," says, "New mother, new mom, Belinda, uh, Belinda Bencic two to one cashes versus Andreeva, advancing now to her first Wimbledon semis."
3:36
Uh, again, where she will take on Iga. Trip Tepper, "I mean this with all due respect and purely for the comedy.
3:42
I can't get the image of Felica watching the ponies and comparing it to the, uh, and not comparing it to the 'SNL' Matt Foley 'Down by the River' skit." [laughs] That's so good. Matt Foley van, down by the river.
3:55
The old, uh, Chris Farley one. That is, that is, uh, one of the best ever- One of the best ever... 'SNL' skits. John Balducci, "Carmelo Anthony mode for Peterson.
4:03
As a Syracuse native and Knicks fan, I feel as though I have a firm understanding of Hoops' love life." Tom F, oh, he's reacting to something else, Tom.
4:10
Razor Blade, talking about our, our Super Bowl, uh, quarterback, excuse me, our, our regular season MVP, Super Bowl champ market that we discussed.
4:20
Razor Blade says, "A quarterback winning MVP is massively correlated to their Super Bowl price." Yes, it is. "Given there's a very like, high likelihood that their team is the number one seed.
4:28
It's just a correlated parlay, like how they price SGPs. [laughs] That said, I'd imagine the hold is still 50-plus percent." Well, that's the problem. That's what we were talking about, Razor Blade.
4:36
Everything you're saying about the correlation is correct, but it is priced like SGPs, which means you're getting screwed, and in this case, really screwed. Yeah.
4:45
Uh, GV, New Jersey, New York, regarding A- uh, Antonio Senzatela. He said, "He's less than two years away from a full Major League Baseball pension after this season.
4:55
I don't know why I want him to get there, but man, I'm rooting for him." [laughs] That's such a great call. Uh, Senzatela for the, uh, Rockies, 6.57 ERA this year, 6.57 ERA last year. Career ERA over five.
5:08
Get your money. It is wild. You and I were talking about this the other day, like the- I brought up-... the Miles Mikulas of the world- Yeah...
5:14
that, like, became famous when I was covering, like, spring training 'cause didn't he eat a lizard or something? Yeah. That was him, right? Didn't he eat the lizard? I can't remember that.
5:23
I do, I mean, I, I remember the conversation, though, because I bro- I always bring up Jason Marquis. I think about, like, who's a random pitcher I used to handicap a decade ago?
5:31
It's like the backend starters that have been, somehow played for, like, 15 years. Jason Marquis played for the Cardinals. I wanna say the Rockies, too. Don't, don't hold me to that. Leaflet, $50 million in the bank.
5:43
[laughs] It's wild. Sure. It, it's kind of the, uh, uh, yeah, who was it? Yeah, it was Mikulas who ate the, the lizard. Um, like, Nicolas Batum, have you, have you tracked this at all?
5:54
He's basically said he's gonna retire three years in a row. Yeah.
5:58
And he keeps just getting, [laughs] he keeps getting, like, called out of retirement by, like, the Clippers keep g- having him come back, and it's like, well, it's a lot easier when there's $6 million staring at you in the face.
6:08
How did we, w- we brought up Batum? Oh, we brought up Batum the other day on the, uh, Malik Beasley gambling scandal.
6:13
Bettune was at the line, made two free throws to put the spread over a number, and then with five seconds left, Beasley full sprea- [laughs] full sprint down nine with five seconds left to get a bucket to cover the spread.
6:25
Rick Olier, "If knowing the backup point guard for Nicholls State isn't enough for lasting love these days, then what chance do the rest of us have? Just kidding, we all love Greg. LFG, Eaga."
6:34
And Las Vegas 514, "Yo, let's just send Greg to Love Island. That would be must-see TV." Oh my God, [laughs] that would be so great. Greg said he's caught wind of Love Island, I checked.
6:44
Doesn't know the details, but he, but he's caught wind of it as well. D- did you see this, uh,
6:49
I probably could have pulled the video in, 'cause I don't think it's breaking any rules, but did you see, was it N- Norfolk, like, minor league baseball yesterday? Oh, yes, the lightning struck. Yeah.
6:59
Yeah, there was a th- there was a crack of lightning, or thunder, or whatever it was. It lit the whole stadium. Every player on the diamond jumped. The pitcher jumped. They called a balk, runner in from third.
7:11
[laughs] P- p- pitcher, pitcher, middle of the windup- It's like-... gets freaked out, and they call a balk. There's, uh, th- that ump was ridiculous. That was ridiculous. Yeah, absolutely ridiculous.
7:19
Everybody in the stadium reacted. Bill Spagnoli, "He wants the jockey to ask the horse to run by encouraging him." No, we know that. We get what he's doing, Falica.
7:27
We just, the language that he uses is odd, is all I'm saying. All right. Ready to go country clubbing? Yeah. Country clubbing. We got three minutes right here. Right here on the Numbers Game. Let's do it.
7:35
[upbeat music] Oh, yeah. What is it again? A- ask this three. Ask this three. What'd you say? Ask this three. Wasn't this, isn't that Falica's, uh, line that I screwed up already?
7:48
Yeah, but that's not what I remember him saying. There's something else. Yeah, ask this. Yeah. Uh, you know what? His w- his wife was- It's confusing... his wife- That one doesn't make sense. I'm with you...
7:57
his, if his wife's listening, she knows exactly what I'm talking about. He said something different. Get brave I can understand a bit. [laughs] Get brave. The Genesis Scottish Open. They're playing bullsh- Let's go...
8:08
they're playing bullshit. This has become a great event, Gil. Yeah. It really has. Uh, a full field event.
8:12
What I love what they do this week, you have the Genesis Scottish Open and then the ISCO Championship going ba- on back here in the States.
8:17
They split it between, it is a co-sanctioned DP World Tour event and PGA Tour event.
8:23
Uh, what started happening was years ago, not, not years ago, six, seven years ago, you had more of the PGA players showing up to play the Scottish Open when it was a DP World Tour event, so they would acclimate to the time zones better, right- Uh-huh...
8:35
uh, before the Open Championship. And they saw all these bigger names starting to come over, and they were like, "All right, let's just make this a real thing." Played at the Renaissance Club.
8:43
This is a gorgeous, gorgeous golf course.
8:45
The most important note if you are doing your own handicapping at home, you will probably hear every golf handicapper bring this up, and it is important to know this, this is not a true link-style course.
8:56
So if you are thinking that they are playing link-style golf this week, no. Save that thought for next week. This is, i- i- it's kind of a mixture of parkland and link-style greens complex, uh, plexes.
9:08
But some of the th- things that are important at this course are not going to be nearly as important as when we get, uh, over to the Open next week.
9:16
Uh, for instance, distance off the tee, very important th- uh, this week. You're not gonna have as much, uh, if you don't find the fairway, you're not gonna be penalized as much.
9:27
So you can really look for some bombers to target this week. Uh, important on approach and then putting. The, the other big thing here, you are seeing, uh, the, the Open-style greens.
9:37
So on the Stimp meter, it's about half of what you're used to seeing on the PGA Tour. Really, really slow greens this week. Now, there's two ways to look at this.
9:45
We had this conversation on Long Shots up now, uh, over on YouTube and wherever you find your podcasts.
9:50
When you get, when you go to such slower greens or f- quicker greens like we saw at the US Open, Gil, uh, there's, there's part of me that says it kind of levels the playing field a bit because everybody has to make an, a, a huge adjustment to the green speed.
10:03
But when they're this slow, it really lets the good putters kind of take aim. Hmm. So it is something I factored in a little bit more this week than I usually do, uh, was putting stats.
10:12
And especially you do have big green complexes, so three putt avoidance, lag putting, those are things to look at as well. But typically you treat putting as random. Uh, i- i- depends what course. Yeah.
10:22
But even me compared to other- Yeah... golf handicappers, I do not factor it in- Okay... as much. Um, okay, outrights on my card this week, Ludvig Aberg. I'm going back to Aberg. 30 to 1.
10:32
He's put together now a couple events in a row where the ball striking numbers, shout out Chris Falica, uh, are looking really good off the tee, on approach, gaining. He's gotten that back.
10:41
He has w- big time distance off the tee here. Um, so I love, Ludvig, anytime he's gonna drift out to that 30 mark is basically gonna be a bet on for me. I really think he's got a bright future, uh, ahead of him.
10:52
So Lud- uh, Ludvig, outright top five. I'm going back to Bobby Mac. Really didn't have any intention to play him this week. He won this last year, finished second the year before.
11:03
Scottish golfer at Scottish Open makes a lot of sense. But the recent form is really good, too. T17 at the Travelers, second at the US Open, T36 at Canadian Open. Dude's just playing good golf right now.
11:13
So I have him in the outright market, and then played a top 10, uh, to cover up him with. And then Sam Burns, Matt Fitzpatrick, uh, let's start with Fitzpatrick.
11:23
40 to 1, great putter, ball striking numbers been better recently. Like him in the outright market. Love Sam Burns this week. Let's do, let's- One of the best putters... let's do the rest on the other side. Okay.
11:31
Yeah, let's let it breathe. I don't wanna- Let it breathe. Let it breathe. You don't have to run it into the wall. So outrights, Aberg 30 to 1, McIntyre 33 to 1, Fitzpatrick and Burns 40 to 1.
11:41
Kelly will flesh it out- Got it... beyond that. On the other side, and Ben Wilson joins us. Famous Eaga slanderer, Ben Wilson. [laughs] What does he have to say for himself? That's next.
11:51
[upbeat music] A Numbers Game on VSiN, the sports betting network.
12:07
Numbers Game live from Circa Resort Casino, downtown Las Vegas. And speaking of Circa Resort Casino, it lives on The all-in summer hotel package at Circa. My goodness, is this great.
12:19
$400 all-in price through September 4th. We got you covered. Two-night hotel stay, that includes resorts fees and taxes, $100 dining credit, $100 beverage credit, and a daybed at Stadium Swim.
12:33
Let me repeat that, Kelly Bilin, for those who missed it, 'cause we have run into numerous people- Yes... who have already taken advantage of this, no joke. $400, that's it. Not $400 and a penny. $400 all-in price.
12:45
Two-night hotel stay, $100 dining credit, $100 beverage credit, daybed at Stadium Swim. Now through September 4th at CircaLasVegas.com. So we've run into multiple people. Uh, I've had a friend utilize this as w- as well.
12:58
I think the, basically the reaction has been the same from everybody, and it's like, it's like Steve Fezzik with Free Play. Yes. It's like, why wouldn't I use this? That's exactly right.
13:06
Like, it's so obvious, why wouldn't I do this? Yeah. You use the word utilize a lot, by the way. You notice that? You could probably substitute the word use. Like, too much?
13:13
You could probably use, substitute the word use in every time you've used it. Like, air che- air check that one? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. It's a good note. Good point there. Thanks, Gil. Yeah, English.
13:19
Everybody loves an English teacher. No, it's a good note. Yeah. We, we all have crutches, words we use too often. We get tweets that beat to the book. Utilize too often.
13:26
[laughs] Brooklyn Bets, who suggested, hey, minus 190 on the Blue Jays raised to 10, month of July is too short. Uh, Michael Montesano says, "Yeah, but I'd hate to dead heat that."
13:36
And Brooklyn Bets goes, "Good point, forget, forgot to consider the dead heat when I fired, but still like it." Uh, Pat Monteforte, "Is this the ho-" Oh, he's, he's referring to a horse for, uh, Falica. Um,
13:47
this is JasonH11, "Run, you donkey." No, that's not what he says.
13:50
[laughs] Jesse Welch, "My new favorite segment is Kelly finding a market to handicap and then Gil just absolutely exposing these huge books for robbing ignorant bettors blind."
13:59
That's, that's kind of a thing we're doing now. ND Money, "Some of the network continue to say," oh, some of our network, Kelly, listen to this, "continue to say Wimbleton," with a T.
14:09
I might have heard that the other day too. Speaking of English, "I've tried to correct them, but my voice is too small, apparently. Perhaps you could help sway them.
14:15
Wimbledon, uh, Wimbleton [laughs] hasn't been used since the 1700s," he says. Um, you know what that's the opposite of? Um, people don't say the word important anymore. They substitute the first T with a D sound.
14:29
You heard this? Like, Kaitlan Collins on CNN or all these like, those important. Everybody says that now. Oh. There's no D in important. I haven't noticed that one. Hmm. I noticed it, drives me crazy.
14:40
Chris Heath, "With your golf, with those outright prices, that sounds like all Kelly can bet, otherwise he'll be overexposed." What's Chris Heath talking about there?
14:47
Uh- Would you like to wrap, would you like to wrap up your golf talk here before we get to Ben? Sure, yeah. Well, let's run through. Maybe, uh, maybe Benny's got a couple, uh, to get to.
14:54
So yeah, Ludwig, Bobby Mac, Matt Fitzpatrick, Sam Burns on the outrights. That's where we're going. A big thing with Burns for me, I've kind of been staying away from him for the most part this year.
15:05
The putting's been awesome, but he's finally putting together the on the d- uh, off the tee and approach, uh, stuff that was a little shaky last year and beginning part of this year.
15:14
Fourth on approach, uh, in this field last 16 rounds. So I, I really like Burns this week, actually. Um, outrights, uh, for him, top five and a top 20 I played, uh, on him.
15:24
And then the top 20 market, uh, Tommy Fleetwood plus money. Uh, this guy has played this course, played this course well about a billion times.
15:32
If you actually wanna play an outright on Tommy Fleetwood, I, I, I won't hate you, 'cause as we discussed yesterday, it's not the United States, so he could possibly win. [laughs] He could win. Could possibly win.
15:42
Um, Max Grazerman, love Grazerman this week. I almost did, I almost went with an outright play. I think I'm gonna be safe, though, safer and just go with a top 20 on him.
15:51
Almost got home with him a couple weeks ago, uh, but gaining on a, off the tee and on approach the last five events. He is long off the tee. I think he, his game should fit this course well.
16:01
He finished T21 here just a year ago, um, when his game was not nearly as good. So like Grazerman this week. And then Harry Hall was a late add for me.
16:10
Uh, not very long off the tee, was a little concerned with that, but one of the better putters out there. Um, got talked into that on long shots. So gonna play plus 220 on the top 20 there.
16:19
And the matchup's really quick. Benny on over Sungjae Im, who's lost his swing completely it seems, and then Jake Knapp over Haotong Li. There you go.
16:27
Jake Knapp actually rated out very highly for me, but that's, I'm just gonna stay with matchups. Genesis Scottish Open from Kelly, by the way.
16:32
Kevin Ryan tweets in, "Gil, can you send me Kelly's Twitter handle, as I seem to have lost it? I want to send him all my MLB parlays for the day." Oh, please, yeah, I will gladly rate- No worries... every parlay, yep.
16:42
Uh, Ben Wilson joins us now courtesy of Progressive Guest Line. You can follow him on the old Twitter machine @Ben_Wilson_1. VSI host and play-by-play broadcaster, and noted Iga Świątek hater joining us now.
16:54
How you doing, Ben? What do you gotta say for yourself? Yeah, no, I'm, I'm great.
16:58
I, I, I like to re- I like to remind people that the original, uh, the original hate for Iga came from a simple, uh, a simple line that Kelly can corroborate when I was, uh, filling in for you, Gil, a couple summers ago.
17:09
Basically just saying on non-clay court surfaces I felt like Aryna Sabalenka and Iga Świątek should be priced a little bit closer to even, and that, uh, the, the army then took as, uh, Iga will never win a tennis match.
17:20
She'll never win another point in her career. [laughs] Which I, I appreciate, uh, how this has continued. Yes. And, uh, and here we are now in 2025, and Iga's, uh, having her bre- best grass court season ever. Ever.
17:29
Be- Ben, are you accusing me of blowing something out of proportion just to get- No... a reaction from the audience? No. Come on, no, never. Never. That's exactly how that went down, though. Of course.
17:38
Ben said one line, and I was like, "Oh, he hates her." Uh, Jannik Sinner and Ben Shelton- Of course... by the way, headed to a first set tiebreaker.
17:46
I don't believe there has been a break here, and this is what I expected here on the over 39 and a half. But I'm thinking for that over, we probably want Shelton to win this tiebreaker, probably.
17:56
Um, do- Yeah, that's looking good early... do, do you have a play, uh, Ben, in, I wanna see, the, has the Djokovic match started? It has not. Do you have a play on- No, not yet... Djokovic-Cobolli?
18:06
Do you have a play on that before we head to the women's? I didn't. I will say quickly, I, I have the Shelton, uh, not only over, but also I have Shelton plus one and a half sets.
18:15
Uh, just, you know, it's interesting how you talk about some of these derivative markets, and this, this goes across all sports, but sometimes you have a big market move on just a, a straight money line, right?
18:26
And we saw the market just absolutely pound Shelton from the time that line opened till the time it closed. But sometimes these secondary markets don't get adjusted at all.
18:34
And I noticed the Shelton line, I mean, it stayed plus one and a half sets, plus 110 for hours as the market was crashing, which is just incorrect if you're comparing how the line was moving. Um, so I have that as well.
18:46
You can, you know, the live markets, this is the last time you can, you can bet this, but, uh, bef- before this first set wraps up. Uh, I mean, Sinner has not been able to do anything so far on the Shelton serve.
18:55
N- not make any in- inroads, as it were, Gil. So I, I still would look to get in th- on that in the next couple minutes, um, if you can. I didn't play anything in the Djokovic match.
19:04
It's, you know, such a ridiculously high favorite, and, uh, I would just caution people who are like, "Oh, I've never heard of this Cobolli guy. Let me just bet Djokovic in straight sets minus 125."
19:14
Uh, we've seen Djokovic do the thing where he almost, I wouldn't say intentionally, but it's like he almost needs something to get himself riled up, and he'll, he'll drop a first set. [laughs] So true.
19:23
It happened against Alex de Minaur.
19:24
It's almost like, you know, he, he just wants it as like a, I don't know, some sort of sycophantic, uh, way of getting through these matches where he does it, and then all of a sudden Djokovic turns it on, uh, wins in four.
19:35
So I would just express a little caution.
19:37
I am disappointed in a lot of the sports books for, for the books who are hanging these odds on who would come out of the top half and bottom half, that they just decided not to throw up a men's price on the top half because of the Sinner injury.
19:50
Which it's like, sure, like, take low limits on it, but to just not throw that up is, um, is really disappointing because Djokovic I, I think would have been a great bet there, um, given the uncertainties around Sinner.
20:02
Even the fact that Shelton without a Sinner injury would still have likely been live in that match.
20:07
Uh, but Djokovic would have definitely been a great play before this match to, uh, to come out of the top half, and you gotta think he's, uh, he is by far the, of the four remaining in that top half, he is the favorite, uh, overwhelmingly so, especially with, um, how Sinner has looked awfully compromised.
20:21
I'm with you, man. Are we booking or are we not, right? Put, put it up. Let, let people at least- Sure... bet a little bit on it. Um, what about tomorrow?
20:28
Now we have the, we have the two-- So here's how, the schedule goes like this. It's the two ladies semis tomorrow, then it's the two men's semis on Friday.
20:38
So the two ladies semis tomorrow, we don't have the line yet on Swiatek-Bencic. I'm gonna guess that Iga's north of a $2 favorite. We do have the Sabalenka line, where Sabalenka's exactly that. She's minus 244.
20:52
The American, Anisimova, plus 193 on the comeback. The game's line is four. The total's 21 and a half. Do you have a play on that? Uh, I will go, I'll look over the total in the Sabalenka-Anisimova match.
21:06
I'm, I'm, I'm stay- I'm not, I'm not, uh, I'm not gonna touch the Iga matches here as much as, uh, as much as she, she's looked awesome.
21:12
Um, I mean, Bencic is certainly not your standard unseeded player in the, in the semifinals, you would say, having been a, a Olympic gold medalist in the past.
21:21
But, you know, it's, it's I think the state now of the women's game, I mean, I don't think anybody is, is, you know, is afraid of any single player on any surface.
21:28
And even though Sabalenka, I've, I've kind of been beating the drum for her over the past couple years, you know, the pricing has now gotten to the point where it is really aggressive on Sabalenka, and she is, should be the favorite.
21:38
She is rightful to be, uh, you know, minus 140 now to win it all. But you think about the paths on some of these matches, and it, it seems like she still has a dip at some point i- in, in the best of three sets.
21:50
Um, there's gonna be a dip. She got really fortunate. I mean, that third set was just like, you know, watching, uh, the, against Siegemund, was like watching a car crash you just couldn't keep your eyes off of.
21:58
Like, no- nobody wanted to win the match, and eventually Sabalenka just kind of backed her way into winning the final three games there, 6-4 in the third.
22:05
Um, so this is a big moment here for Anisimova, whose game we always figured would translate well to this surface as a, you know, obviously a tall in stature, power serving sort of player.
22:15
I definitely think she can hang here with Sabalenka, and it's sort of a simar- similar strategy I had with the, uh, with the match today, the Bencic match, where I just, and Drever, I took over 21 and a half thinking, you know, the way the, the serving matches up, like a 7-5, 7-6 match wouldn't shock me.
22:30
Even if that's the case for Sabalenka, that still gets you over, and I'll, I'll apply the same logic here for that match tomorrow. And, uh, Kelly, it just showed me the price. I guessed correctly.
22:38
Iga minus 275 favorite in her match- There you go... against Bencic tomorrow. Ben, thank you, man, as always. Appreciate it. Good seeing you. You got it. Ben Wilson, everybody.

23:45
Jannik Sinner figures out a way to win the, uh, first set tiebreaker. Not necessarily a good thing for our over 39 and a half, but we shall see.
23:52
How did Colts legendary quarterback Daniel Jones not make it onto that graphic? [laughs] Jordan Love made it on the graphic, which is interesting. Not Patrick Mahomes. Jordan Love got in there. Oh, yeah.
24:03
What, did we just get sick of putting Mahomes up there, I guess? Probably. I mean, Mahomes, uh- Good point...
24:07
Stormy was making the case the other day that, uh, it is the kiss of death because nobody picked the Chiefs to make it to the Super Bowl... and the guide. And I was like, "Okay." Feel like that's a very, like- Hmm...
24:18
that's a reasonable thing for that to happen. I thought she was gonna tell me, like, nobody picked them to win the AFC West. And I was like, "Okay, that's ridiculous."
24:24
[laughs] But then she's like, "Can you believe nobody picked them to go to the Super Bowl?" I was like, "Ah, well, I feel like that's believable." I, I heard your guys' discussion- Yeah... on that.
24:30
It was, I, I, I think you were both kind of right. I am a little surprised nobody has- Like, not one, yeah... yeah, not a single one doesn't have them in the Super Bowl. But you, you had a good counter- Hmm...
24:39
'cause there was enough AFC West winners. Yeah. But I see yesterday, like, a, an, um, the latest dad bod photo of Patrick Mahomes- Yes... people just laying into him.
24:46
And then that, like, mildly obese Kansas City reporter, like, told him he was fat- That's correct... and had to like... And then the picture got passed around of him- Yeah... sitting crisscross applesauce- [laughs]...
24:54
in a McDonald's, uh, like, booth. It was hilarious. By the way, that's the voice of Jonathan Von Tobel, everybody. Uh, for those who didn't know, who don't know that. @meJVT on Twitter.
25:03
He is the co-host of Money Moves, which follows us, Stored About with Tony and JVT, uh, right here at, uh, 9:00 AM Pacific, 12 noon Eastern, each and every weekday here on the network.
25:13
Uh, John, you were not briefed on what we wanted to do with you here today, but I, I'm, I'm gonna assume you're game for this little rapid fire NBA season win total reaction. Sure. I'm ready. All right.
25:22
I'm gonna repeat now, now for everybody, I'm gonna repeat some of the ones that I did yesterday with Kelly, and then we'll get to some new ones here. Let's just start at the top, JVT. Thunder, 62 and a half.
25:32
Highest season win total since the Warriors of 2018/19 when they were 67 and a half. 62 and a half. Under. Wow. Okay. Under. All right. Am I giving, like, a sentence of analysis? You gave a sentence of analysis. Okay.
25:44
Uh, deep playoff run for the first time. Uh, and I think that once you've achieved, it's a little bit harder with an improved Western Conference to achieve the heights you hit regular season-wise.
25:52
I think it's safer to say that they're gonna win, like, you know, 60 games as opposed to 62 and a half. I think we could also throw in the y- you're gonna probably hear a lot of the dudes getting paid.
26:01
Maybe they don't care as much about the regular season. I actually think the biggest point is just a stronger Western Conference. Yeah. A stronger Western Conference and a massive number, 62 and a half.
26:10
Ched Holmgren, $250 million deal just signed this morning, or at least announced this morning. Very similar to my deal here at Visa. Yeah [laughs]. That's what I thought, yeah. Very similar.
26:16
Yours, yours is a couple more years though. Yeah. Yeah, than Ched. Deferred payments.
26:20
Um, [laughs] by the way, uh, once again, with the, uh, 62 and a half, since, this is according to Sports Odds history, since 1993, 11 clubs before this year's Thunder, this coming year's Thunder, have had season win totals pre-flop of 60 plus.
26:35
Those have gone eight and three to the under historically. All right. Cavaliers, 55 and a half. Over. Over. Regular season juggernauts. Yeah. Yes. I think that's, again, one, the pro- like, what is gonna happen.
26:48
I think they're gonna be better in the re- the post season. Yeah. But I think they're gonna be very good in the regular season. Uh, Rockets now up from 54 and a half to 55 and a half. Wow. Under for me. I'll go under.
27:00
Yeah. I do, I would too. Nuggets, 53 and a half. Over. I love that team. Nick- I don't, I don't remember what I said on this one. Did you ask me this one yesterday? I think so. Over or nothing.
27:10
I can see your conviction is very strong. Yeah. I, no, I think it's a good number. I'm gonna go over. Knicks, under money. 52 and a half, now 51 and a half. Hmm. I go over.
27:19
I'm just- I like this player off season a lot actually. Like, they added good depth. Mike Brown's gonna use that depth.
27:24
You shouldn't get these big minute loads for guys like Mikal Bridges and Jalen Brunson, and I think they should win a lot of games in a bad conference. Yeah.
27:29
I think, the first part of what you said, most important though, 'cause I think if anybody's concerned about that meaning more losses 'cause the starters aren't playing no, more, no, I think, a, uh, at, the additions they made are gonna help so much- Yeah...
27:40
with that. So yeah, I, the, I, over, I'm shocked that's actually moved down a win. If Knicks, if the Knicks don't get to the conference finals, then people will kill Mike Brown? Uh, yeah, I mean, probably, right?
27:52
I, I guess because he just didn't make it as far as the previous coach. Or, or any further- Yeah... he needs to be. Yeah, yeah, whatever it was. Yeah. So yes, I would say that that's probably going to be the case.
27:59
Uh, Magic, 51 and a half. Their highest season win total since 2010/11 when it was 54 and a half. I'm really wrestling with this.
28:08
I think their offense is still gonna kind of stink, but their defense is gonna be really good. [laughs] I'm gonna say under. Yeah, it's a under for me. This is an under for me. It might actually end up being a bet. Yeah.
28:18
'Cause the, I agree, the... This will probably be a, not a, not a, not a bet I make before the season starts, but get a look at the Magic- Yeah... for the first few weeks.
28:27
'Cause I agree with you, there's still some concerns on that offense side. I just like for another off season where like, you know, Tyrese Halton is a really good pickup at point guard.
28:33
Like, that didn't help the Suns [laughs] like, at all. Yeah. That was supposed to save them, and it ultimately didn't. I'm just trying to think. 2010/11 they were 54 and a half.
28:40
I guess that was a Dwight Howard, Turkoglu team still at that point? Which, which year? 2010/11. It probably- Yeah... they were, yeah, right? Yeah, I think so. I'm trying to remember my years.
28:48
By the way, kids, Dwight Howard was awesome. Yeah. Just so you know. Those Vucevic and, uh- Oh, yeah... Fournier teams were pretty good too, record-wise, one time. That's a high win total. That's a high, I know. Yeah.
28:57
I, I don't know if I would've guessed that on any of those teams. Uh, T-Wolves have gone from 50 and a half to 50, back to 50 and a half. This was the one I said yesterday. Absolute pass on me. [laughs] Yeah.
29:08
It's just like, it's like spot on. Um- Seems pretty right. If we're forced to do it for the exercise, I'll say over. If we're forced to do it for the exercise, I'll say under. Yeah.
29:17
I'll say under because they're just str- I think w- that will be my fallback on all these Western Conference teams 'cause the West is so strong. Yeah. All right. Let's go rapid, rapid fire. Okay. Lakers, 47 and a half.
29:25
Under. Under, already bet for me. Gold- Bet small, though... Golden State Warriors, 47 and a half. Go over. Oh, I like it. Hawks, 46 and a half. Should be 60. [laughs] Over. I love that team. Should be 50, though. 60.
29:39
[laughs] Are, are you in on it already? Uh, yeah. Okay. Me and- I, I love that team... me and JVT instant bet that. Did you s- Over. Yeah... did you say should be 60? [laughs] Is that what you said? All right.
29:46
Well, it wouldn't be a JVT segment if I didn't say Clippers, 46 and a half. Over. They're gonna get Beal, and they're gonna be pretty good. They're gonna get Beal- Yeah... and they're gonna be good. Okay.
29:54
Uh, s- now here, here's where it gets kind of sad. Yeah, I'm over on this one. Celtics, 43 and a half. God. Man, that's so, they're so hard to project. They're so new. Yeah. I'm gonna go under. That- Wow. Where did I...
30:05
I had them 10th in my power rankings, so I don't know that this makes sense, but I'll go over. By the way, that's the same pre-flop season win total as the Spurs and the Sixers. Yeah.
30:15
So Celtics, Spurs, Sixers, all 43 and a half. Spurs. Over Over Sixers Over Over. But like, who knows? Way over or way under? I think I, I, I'm afraid I'm ready to get hurt again.
30:27
I kind of feel like the Sixers are worth betting. Okay. I'm glad you said that, 'cause I was just about to say- If they're healthy...
30:32
I don't, I don't mean anything I'm about to say, but I feel like out of obligation I'm supposed to say, is this the year where we're not thinking about them- Yes... where they actually... Yeah.
30:39
Because the conference stinks, right? Right.
30:40
So like, if, if I tell you Joel Embiid, yes, they're like cra- it might be crazy, but Paul George did before he left the Clippers play his most games in a Clippers uniform and they were pretty good, right?
30:48
Like, it happens. So what if they both give you 60 games? In a watered-down Eastern Conference, they're actually pretty good. Edgecomb looks like he could be pretty decent. He had a good- Yeah...
30:57
start to the Summer League. He has this thumb injury. We've only seen one game. But just what if the guys are healthy?
31:02
In a watered-down East, are you really gonna be shocked if all of a sudden Joel Embiid has an MVP-esque year and they're competing for, like, the two seed? If you're- I don't think it would be that crazy...
31:09
I, I'll go a step further. If you're going 60-plus ga- if you're telling me I'm getting 60-plus games- Yeah... out of Maxey, George, and Embiid, there's a chance they're the best team in the Eastern Conference. Yes.
31:18
Record-wise at least. Rack it. What did Rome use to say? Rack that. Yeah. Um, like- I'm sure somebody will remember that I said the Hawks- [laughs] Yeah... wins total should be 60. 60.
31:24
[laughs] And then when they win, like, 51, somebody's gonna tweet me and be like, "You moron." You, you so stupid. [laughs] You said they're going 60.
31:31
Uh, let's do a few more of those 'cause I wanna get back to that Summer League thought. Uh, Cooper Flagg and the Mavericks, 39 and a half. Over. Under. This is so sad. Pacers, 38 and a half. Ugh. I think over. Yeah.
31:43
I think they're still a pretty adequate team. Yeah. I'll go over too. All right. Number- They're not exciting, but I think they're gonna be right around 500. Right.
31:51
And the last one, just 'cause they're last, Utah, 18 and a half. Under. W- under? Yes. Wow. Under, but I am not betting another one of those this year, Gil. Oh, I'll, I'll bet it again. You are? All right.
32:00
I actually venture a guess that Larry Markkanen might not even be on the team by the time you get to the end of the year, so. Okay. So I think that one's really interesting 'cause I do think he starts the season- Yeah...
32:08
on the team partially just because they have to meet the salary floor, Gil. And then I think he's-- Also, you don't, you don't wanna sell him now, right? He hasn't- Right...
32:17
he hasn't put together good basketball really at the end of last year, so you wanna play him a little bit, and then hopefully he, uh, his value increases, then you move him before the trade deadline.
32:25
Is there another one on that board right there, lowest, uh, season win totals that sticks out to you? I mean, I'm always, I've- Yeah, Blazers over. I already bet it. Yeah, you're a big Blazers guy.
32:33
Or I'm sorry, Raptors over. Raptors over. Uh, Raptors. Um- That already moved though. I bet it at 34 and a half. I actually, I have a differing opinion on the Raptors. I think they can go under.
32:39
I also think Scotty Barnes is kind of projecting south, which is not very good. Ooh. And so if, like, if that's the case, then maybe they could be a pretty poor team.
32:46
I hate to say, I'm, I'm not gonna do it, but I've been a Hornets truther for a while. [laughs] [laughs] And it's like, you know, if- Yeah... if, uh, you ever seen the meme of the kid on the bus?
32:55
He's like, "She's very beautiful to me." Like, yeah, like- [laughs]... the Hornets, if LaMelo Ball's healthy- She's very beautiful to me...
33:00
and you get Brandon Miller and Kon Knipple and all these guys, it's a talented team. I just, I don't think I can do it.
33:06
Last 30 seconds, 'cause you have, you are one of the few and the proud that has a Summer League press pass. Who's winning the Summer League? Where's the bet? Uh, so I bet three teams really quickly.
33:14
Uh, Thunder, the Grizzlies, and the Hawks were my three. H- Hawks are, like, the long shot. You can find them at 80 to 1, so. Wow. Okay. Like them. Um, how often- As much as you can...
33:23
how often do you go to Summer League? Every day? This year actually I did not get a press pass. Oh. So that's a very sad thing. Oh. Uh, but I will go as often as I possibly can. Okay.
33:30
I, look, I'm a, I'm a Kushy media member. I can get tickets. You going for Cooper Flagg's opener? Tomorrow, on- No, but I will take the kids this weekend. We'll go out there a couple times, so. Okay. Indoctrinate them.
33:38
There you go. In- indoctrinate them. [laughs] Radicalize them. [laughs] JBT, Jonathan Montopel, uh, co-host of Money Moves with Stormy, at the top of the hour.
33:47
We'll recap all the bets on our numbers game next right here at VSiN, the sports betting network.
33:51
[upbeat music] A numbers game on VSiN, the sports betting network.
34:10
Back on the numbers game live from Circle Resort Casino, downtown Las Vegas, Nevada. It's Gil Alexander. It's my little buddy Kelly Bittling, everybody. Sup? [laughs] What happened to you there? Wow. I don't know.
34:21
Uh, we get tweets at Beating The Book. Zachary Singleton letting us know that Eiga up to minus 315 now, uh, against Benchy to bet online. Steaming.
34:30
Uh, Jesse Welch, "Cars can definitely carom as well," to the question of if only, do, do only baseballs carom. You know, I think other things carom besides baseball.
34:38
Uh, Tagarit, hope I'm pronouncing that right, "John Schneider as manager of the year does not seem like a good investment." I'm with you, Tagarit.
34:45
Uh, he says, "I watch most Jays games and have seen enough mismanagement from Schneider to know f- to know how fortunate the Blue Jays have been. Every called-up pitcher and hitter has overperformed to the extreme."
34:56
That, that's just my point as well. Um, great for the Blue Jays fans, again, and Blue Jays backers here in the month of July. Eight and O out of the chute. Um, but they got tougher competition coming up.
35:07
And again, if you look at the... I shouldn't say again, 'cause we didn't mention this earlier, but if you look at the, um, the standings in terms of the run differential,
35:18
which is, you know, again, according to Bill James' Pythagorean theorem, where, what your win percentage ought to be. It's tried and true. Runs produced, runs prevented.
35:27
What your win, you know, what your win percentage ought to be. The Blue Jays have a plus 21 w- uh, run differential, and they're 54 and 38.
35:38
The Yankees have a plus 102 run differential, and they're 50 and 41, three and a half games back. By the way, the Rays and the Red Sox also have better run differentials than do the Toronto Blue Jays.
35:49
Now, I'm not saying, hey, look, they've already banked the win, so there's nothing we can do about that.
35:54
But the point is, can you project them forward being so awesome that John Schneider at 10 to one ought to be a manager of the year bet? And I would agree with the, uh, the tweet that I'd be more skeptical. Um,
36:06
and then there's, uh, do we have one more here? Or is that the end? That's the end on that. Um- Let's recap all the best bets from today's show, courtesy of GBank, the official bank of VSiN.
36:14
Every host, every guest, every sport recapped at the end of every show. Uh, I have the two tennis plays today.
36:20
We already hit the under on the, uh, Swiatek-Samsonova match, under 21.5, as Iga won that in straight sets, um, by the, uh, by the result of 6-2, 7-5, so that got home.
36:33
We have the over in this Shelton-Sinner match that is currently going on, over 39.5.
36:39
It does not appear that either Ben Shelton or Jannik Sinner are gonna be able to break the opponent, which is kind of the handicap here. The only thing is, if you go 13, 13, and 13, you only get to 39.
36:51
So Shelton now, with Sinner having won the first set, Shelton has to win one of these tiebreakers if in fact we continue to get to them.
36:59
So right now, and by the way, Djokovic and, uh, Cobolli on serve i- or early in the, uh, first set of that match. Kele and Beidelman, what do you got? Yeah, a couple, uh, NBA win totals to review. Hawks over 46.5.
37:12
Raptors over 34.5. I am in on the Timberwolves 15-1 to win the Summer League, and a little CFL action for you this week, and Hamilton laying the four and a half. Alexander Hamilton.
37:24
[laughs] By the way, my Mariners 20-1 is not up there, but it still exists. We'll see if they can make some, make up some ground. Will Hill's best bets. Will was on earlier, full day of Major League Baseball.
37:34
He's got the Reds on the money line today at minus 140. He's got the Mets first five team total over two and a half runs. Phillies first five against the Giants minus 145, the old fade of Justin Verlander.
37:47
And the Red Sox, how about this, Kelly? The old F7 bet, team total over four and a half. So I bet a lot of F3s, but I don't bet any F7s.
37:59
But Will- Yeah, I'm still trying, still trying to figure out what degree Will might have just been screwing with me a little bit today. I don't think he's screwing with you. No. He's betting- Not betting these every day?
38:06
[laughs] Um, I don't know if he's bet them every day, but he's betting them. Jonathan Gannon was his, uh, coach of the year play in the NFL, the, uh, Cardinals' Jonathan Gannon, coach of the year 20 to one.
38:15
Will says if you're gonna play, if you're gonna be bullish on the Cardinals, that's the way to play it. Jonathan Gannon, coach of the year, 20 to one. And then Greg Hoops Peterson came in firing.
38:25
Brewers plus 141 a day after the, uh, Mizio-Rowski show. He's got the Brewers as a dog against the Dodgers. He's also got the over in that game. Dodgers-Brewers early game in Milwaukee today, over eight and a half.
38:36
Phillies-Giants also a day game. He's going under at Oracle, under eight and a half after that awesome inside the park walk-off from Patrick Bailey yesterday. He's also got the Giants in the game at plus 115.
38:48
So both in the Brewers and the, and the, uh, Phillies, r- both in the Dodgers-Brewers games and the Phillies-Giants games, he's got a total and he's got the dog. Over in the Dodgers games, under in the Giants game.
38:59
And Rockies-Red Sox over nine, also a total from Greg. So three totals and two dogs. And check vsin.com 'cause I don't even know if we, uh, got to all of Greg's. Like- Really?
39:09
Yeah, I don't know that we [laughs] even- Oh, we did. We did. You sure? Yeah, yeah. Okay. All right. Yeah, we got to all of them on, when he was on. And we also got to his, uh, his update on his love life in addition.
39:18
That we did. Yeah, got all that. Um, it's all brought to you by GBank, by the way, all the bets, courtesy of GBank, the official bank of VSiN.

40:11
Did we get, do we have a shot of the, uh, of the, uh, Patrick Bailey ball off the, uh, right field wall there at Oracle? Do we have that? I believe we do. I think- Do we have that? I think Larry got that sorted out.
40:20
Or like- 'Cause I, I can't... There it is. Look at that. Yeah. You see the ball right there on the, on the concrete part that is sort of angled upwards.
40:28
I'm not sure if it bounced off that part of it, the flat part of the concrete, or the top of the bricks, but either way, uh, you see, uh, Castellanos there, the, uh, right fielder trying to navigate it, but it was Brandon Marsh from center field who completely overplayed it.
40:43
And once again, every Giants fan watching that ball in the air was like, "Oh boy, here we go," 'cause we've seen this before, Angel Pagan against the Rockies, uh, over a decade ago.
40:52
It's not a great angle of Ca- uh, Castellanos though either. Like what do you, what do you, what are you gonna do there, bro? Well, Castellanos has no shot at it coming from right field.
40:58
Yeah [laughs] like what are you, what are you gonna do there? Yeah, it was up to Marsh to really play it correctly and he, he did not. Did we, did you get to all your golf by the way?
41:04
Did you feel like you rushed through that? Did you wanna... No, uh, couple notes that we'll- Yeah... one, one thing, did wanna mention JVT's Summer League bets, uh, too. Thunder, Grizzlies, Hawks shop around.
41:15
He's got 14 to one on the Thunder, 12 to one on the Grizzlies, 80 to one on the Hawks.
41:19
Did feel the, the, I'm glad you brought it back to golf 'cause the, not necessarily a bet, but, um, I talked about this week not really being the same sort of link style, q- uh, classic link style golf that you're gonna see at most open championships, and that's important to keep in mind.
41:34
The one thing though that does remain the same is, well, what about the weather? Um, r- as of right now, this is, I haven't made any first round leader bets. I don't know that I'm going to.
41:44
As of right now, Thursday looks like it's gonna be, also known as tomorrow, uh, looks like it's gonna be the day most impacted. Wind gusts were up to like mid-20s when I checked on this, this morning.
41:55
Um, looked like earlier in the round, so maybe later round plays could be good to target for first round leaders, but check back on that, uh, as close as you can, uh, before they tee off tonight actually, uh, if you're, you're in Pacific Time.
42:08
Uh, that and the rest of the weekend though, really calm. I- i- it was Friday, Saturday, Sunday. As of this morning, looks like it is gonna be, uh, no rain and very, very light wind.
42:19
So should be scorable conditions as well, if you're looking for DFS or any of those kind of props. And no chance you're staying up for this once again? No chance? Nah. No. No. Open Championship you will?
42:30
Yeah, for, uh, I w- I will, I mean, I don't know what you do for Wimbledon, but it's, it's definitely stre- stretch when I'm going to sleep and when I'm waking up. Of course. More on the b- more on the waking up end.
42:40
It's, it's interesting you ask that, because for some reason I find myself staying up in the dead of night for the Australian Open more than I do for Wimbledon. Yeah.
42:49
So the more extreme it gets, the more likely I am to do that. It's also, like, once we get into the weekend, it's, uh, are my guys in play? [laughs] Right. 100%. That always matters, right?
43:00
By the way, speaking of which, for the Open Championship, which is next week, golf's final major of the year, you have made two bets, Morikawa and Xander. Yeah, Morikawa and Xander. F- Xander at 30, Morikawa 33 to 1.
43:13
Um, I forget who we got the tweet from yesterday. [laughs] A friend's gonna let, friend's bet, uh, Morikawa, but the, that was such a numbers play.
43:20
If you have, if you're, have access to Caesars, they still had it up as of yesterday, 33 to 1. I thought that was a really long number, uh, on Collin Morikawa for the Open Championship.
43:29
So yeah, that's, uh, like, liked that number. That was a long one, and then Xander, Xander at 30 I thought was way too long, too. Um, he is 25 or shorter most books. I think even 25 to 1's not a bad bet on Xander.
43:42
Um, Keith Fournier on Twitter reminds us that rebounds in basketball CARUM as well. Of course they do. Mm. Yeah, yeah. CARUM's got a lot of answers. It's not a broad daylight situation.
43:50
No, you're right, you're right, you're right. No, no. It's got, got other uses. Um- Good call... still on serve, uh, early in the Djokovic-Cobolli match.
43:57
Uh, still on serve second set for Sinner and Shelton as those go on. And again, uh, I'll have my tennis picks for tomorrow at vsin.com/picks.
44:06
Uh, every, every guest, every host that we, uh, have on the, on not only this show, but on the entire network, subscribers get them at vsin.com/picks.
44:16
And then a guy like Jensen's case, Jensen Lewis at Buy the Books, he's firing, like, 20, 20 plays a day it seems like. That's right.
44:22
I'm not sure if he gives them all out on Buy the Books, but he's got all his plays, for instance, at vsin.com/picks. So for CLV purposes alone, [laughs] beyond whether they cash, worth it to be a subscriber of course.
44:35
Money Moves is next, followed by Prop Points, JBT, Stormy standing by. Enjoy from VSIN, the Sports Betting Network. [upbeat music]
