The numbers tell the story, they always do. He's one of those idiots who believe in analytics. This is the Numbers Game with Gil Alexander on Beatin'.
0:08
[upbeat music] Hour number two, Numbers Game here on Beatin', Matt Brown and Kelly Bidland. Fun first hour. Again here till Thursday for the one, the only, Gil Alexander.
0:24
And, uh, Jesse Welch tweets in and says, "This feels like a very Matt Brown-esque rant." Which by the way, rant, come on. J- Jesse, I'm not giving a rant, I'm giving takes, man. These aren't rants. Oh. These are takes.
0:33
On what? I, I- I don't even... I, I mean, I guess the Scottie Scheffler thing was a take earlier. Was that a rant? Was that a ta- I don't know what that was. I don't know what it was.
0:40
He's, he calls it a, a Matt Brown-esque rant. I'm trying to think. I guess you co- uh, you, you probably had a couple that could've been classified as that. But yeah, it's probably Scheffler.
0:48
He said- Probably what he's talking about... who decided the modern era of baseball should start at 1901? Oh, I don't know. I always say whenever prohibition, that, that's where I cut off all records.
0:58
Anything before prohibition I don't wanna hear about. Shouldn't the modern era be whenever we decided that you can't do the steroids anymore? Uh, yes, I agree. Yeah. Like, that should- That should be-...
1:07
actually be the modern era... the modern, modern era. Yeah. Yes. Like, the, the modern era.
1:11
'Cause if, especially if we're gonna call it the steroid era, then there's an era that comes after the sto- the steroid era Which should be the modern era. Which should be the modern era. Yeah.
1:18
We're gonna- Or just the Ohtani era. You know what? You know what, Major League Baseball? I know you're listening, I know you're watching. We're giving you this for free. The modern era is now post-steroid era.
1:28
We don't know exactly the date that the steroid era ended. We will figure that out, but whatever that year is, that's now going to be from, from henceforth, that will be now the modern era- It-... of, of baseball.
1:39
Don't worry, I texted you and Isaiah details on the, uh, bingo, the million-dollar bingo at the South Point so we don't forget. Is it a hot ball? I, I, I don't know, man. It, it's quite a deal though. Hot ball.
1:48
Quite a deal. That's what I'm looking at. It's a, it's a hot ball. Well, I, I, I will say this, the, the steroid era though, that was a f- that was, that was fun. That was fun in baseball.
1:56
Yeah, that wa- that was fun baseball. Yeah, that was fun baseball. I mean, I, I'm not gonna lie, like, I'm tuning in to watch people do things that I could never do no matter how many steroids I took, right?
2:07
[laughs] Correct, yes. You know? Like, I want to see you perform at a high level, and so it was fun watching them just absolutely mash and destroy baseball. It's like, it was, it re- it realized, it was fun.
2:15
It made baseball more fun for pretty much the entire nation. Yes, for everybody. Yeah. Yes. So it is what it is. Of course.
2:21
All right, Kelly, uh, you were, you, you have told me that there is something that I need to be prepared for here. Well, we got tennis and we got golf to talk, so that means it's time to go country clubbing, Matt.
2:29
That's what we're doing. We're going country clubbing. [upbeat music] This is a song Rob Reno was after. Thought I'd show you some visuals. Yeah, that's right, country clubbing. How much did y'all pay those actors?
2:42
[laughs] Those are, those are talented B-roll actors right there. How much did y'all pay those actors? No, the be- the better part is finding that B-roll, okay? Of, of, of just, uh, older couples partying in a club.
2:53
Yeah, I mean- With umbrella drinks. You know what? We should've... We can actually run that twice this, this show because we can also- Matt, you can run it as many times as you want... No, no, no... okay?
3:01
It's my favorite thing on the show. No, I'm saying we can, we can, that's how we can also intro Ben Wilson. [laughs] Yes. Like, like, that, we can, like, that, that can run twice this show.
3:08
Yeah, Ben's in the background actually- Yeah... in that video. Yeah. I mean, like, we can, we can run, we can run [laughs] we can run Ben. Like- That's Ben's grandparents...
3:15
listen, Ben grew up, like, he was born at the country club. Like, they made- [laughs]... the doctor come to the country club to birth him, and, like, that's what...
3:22
He was born in the country club and lived there basically. Oh, a whole medical team. Yeah. And- [laughs]... one of the many country clubs that they are members across the country- Oh, that's great... uh, for sure. Okay.
3:31
So over in the French Open, we actually did have some stuff go down here at, as Boisson stuns Jessica Pegula. She was the number 361 ranked player in women's tennis.
3:44
She was plus 425 to win today, Kelly, and Pegula goes down in that one. So we did have an, a, a big upset today over at Roland Garros. A- as always though, don't freak out.
3:57
I don't think Jessica's gonna have a GoFundMe page going or anything like that- No, no... to get her to keep her tennis career going. Yeah, every- I think she's gonna be okay... everything's...
4:04
Actually, she's as good as she is because of her bank account. Y- y- You know? It has definitely helped. Yeah. Like, that is no pressure whatsoever, right? [laughs] None. Yeah.
4:12
Imagine waking up every single day, and you play professional sports, and whether you win or lose, it does not matter, you are filthy rich. [laughs] Doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. Doesn't matter at all.
4:20
That's the best pl- that's the best way to do it. You just go out there and you're carefree. Uh, Tommy Paul, Frances Tiaa, uh, Tiafoe do advance into the quarter finals. A couple of Americans go on there.
4:29
Alcaraz needs four sets to get by another American, but he does beat Ben Shelton, so he reached the quarters as well. Coco Gauff advanced in straight sets to reach the quarters as well.
4:40
We do have action going on- Yeah... currently out there behind us as well, Kelly, so this is, this is an ongoing thing right now over in, uh, over in Paris.
4:47
Yeah, Djokovic up, uh, 6-2, 2-2 over Cam Norrie right now, and then we have Alexander Bublik 2-1 over Jack Draper. That's men's action. And then coming up today, Jannik Sinner, minus 2,000 over Andrey Rublev.
5:02
That starts here in about three hours. Actually, there's plenty of time. [laughs] Um, and then- It starts here in, uh, oh, never mind, three hours... I, I got used to last week- Yeah, yeah...
5:09
where we were, like, firing early. Nope, three hours. Yeah. You got plenty of time. Uh, and then tomorrow, this one jumped out to me. I don't know if you have any thoughts on it, Matt. Mm. But Musetti and Tiafoe.
5:18
Musetti minus 450, uh, Tiafoe plus 350. That's tomorrow. And then also Tommy Paul and Carlos Alcaraz. Call, uh, Alcaraz a big favorite.
5:26
Uh, Musetti, I know Gil, I know a bunch of the tennis guys really liked heading into this tournament. I don't know if you've got any thoughts, uh, on him or Tiafoe. Yeah. But man, Tiafoe's been playing well.
5:34
Tiafoe's playing well. I mean, if you look at the future, [laughs] futures market given where he sits right now in all of this, I mean, Alcaraz minus 110 to win it all, as you would've, you know, as you can imagine.
5:42
That's actually come back a little bit. Yeah. Okay? It was, like, minus 125 on Friday. Yeah. Uh, Alcaraz minus 110 to win it all. Sinner's at two to one. Djokovic is at eight to one.
5:52
Zverev is at 15 to one, who by the way, he actually had his opponent retire, so he got a, not a walkover, just a, just a retirement. He gets a freebie. He, he's, he's- Just a-...
6:00
a retirement like the people that are in the video that we showed. [laughs] Yeah. Yeah. Right. Gotcha. Yeah. So he got a retirement. He's 15 to one. Draper's 16 to one. Musetti is 20 to one.
6:09
And then everybody else includes Paul, Tiafoe, et cetera, are all 80 to one or longer. Is there a buy price on anybody for you in the futures book? I mean, listen, Alcaraz at minus 110 is Pretty good? It is, I mean,
6:21
now that we've gotten... See, that's the other thing, like we've- So it would be-... whittled down, right? It would be Alcaraz over Sinner for you? Yes. As far as who you like to win this thing. Yes.
6:28
And pri- at, at price, that is, it was like -125 when Gil and I were sitting here on Friday. Yeah. So you're actually getting a better price today with more of the tournament completed.
6:36
Yeah, I mean, this is what, this is where, you know, the, the dynam- the, the dynamic pricing comes into play. Yeah. I mean, they might've saw, but Shelton put up a fight.
6:43
You know, it's, so it's one of those things where you- He did. I watched a lot of that match, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
6:46
Shelton put up a fight, so I think it's one of those deals where people are going, "Well, he's not as good as we thought." And they go and bet somebody else, and we actually get this thing at one, 10.
6:52
But now that we've whittled the field down as far as we ha- have, I mean, -110 on, on Alcaraz I think is certainly something that I would- Okay... I would definitely be looking at.
7:00
Um- Anything on the women's side for you? Yeah, over on the women's side, I know Gil bets a ton of women's tennis. I don't bet a ton of women's tennis. I- Yeah... the unpredictability w- drives me
7:09
up the wall, just literally absolutely insane. I just can't do it. I, I mean, I think, uh, on the matches that he seems to lose, that seems to be what's going on as well with- Yeah, yeah. Iga's 210, +210.
7:20
Sabalenka's +210. Andreva is sitting there at 425. Coco is at +450, and then everybody else is 14 to one or longer, including Maddie Keys, I think who's playing right now.
7:32
Man, that is pretty wild you got those four, four girls though, 450 or shorter. Who's too, who's priced too short? [laughs] Look, look at Boisson, who gets the, uh, who gets the, the upset to 80 to one. 80 to one.
7:46
Lo- no respect for Lois. No, no ex- hold on, she's French though, is it? Yeah, it's, it's probably not Lois. Is it Lois? Is it Lo- Loix? Lo- how would you- I, I don't know. How would we do- Hey, Mr.
7:55
Louisiana, don't ask me... how would we do a F- Fr- a French Lois? Loix, Loix, Loix? Loix Boisson? [laughs] Loix Boisson? Uh, or, or is it Louise? I have, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.
8:06
I, I'm glad you just went Lois, though. [laughs] Let's go Lois. 'Cause, you know, Lois Boisson. All right. Uh, Matt, I'm always here to make it easier for the bettors, right? Yeah. So for the American bettor- Yeah...
8:14
for what name you're looking for when you go to the- Oh... odds page, Lois, that's who you're looking for. Lois, uh, Lois Boisson. There you go. That's right. B-O-I-S-S-O-N. Lois Boisson. Lois, Lois Boisson is 80 to one.
8:25
Uh, uh, did, did Gil bet Iga to start the tournament? I can only imagine he did. Uh, no. Well, he had bets, he had bets on her from, like, months ago. [laughs] So he has, admittedly, he has a worse price.
8:34
Are they just, like, carryover quarters? Yeah, they have worse price. So I don't, I don't think he added on to that at all, but, uh, yeah, he has Iga.
8:40
But yes, a, a, a smaller amount than I think he normally would, but at a worse number. So Iga right now +210, Sabalenka +210, Andreva +425, Coco +450. Who out of that four, Matt, who's too short, who's too long?
8:53
[sighs] I mean, I don't know if anybody's too long necessarily or too short. I, I... Look,
9:03
Sabalenka would probably be where I w- okay, if you're telling me I can only bet one of those four and you're giving me a free Kelly 100 bucks, right? Yes, so you're going Sabalenka?
9:09
Yeah, I'm probably taking Sabalenka, who's been at least a little bit more consistent than everybody else- Yeah... in that list over the course of the little while.
9:16
But I mean, again, it's just, I'm not gonna say it's a crap shoot. It's not. There's, there's money to be made in women's tennis for sure, and a lot of people do it.
9:22
It's just not my cup of tea, because I have a, I have a very tough time getting to when, like we just saw, the 361-ranked w- woman in the world gets to the quarters because she goes in and beats Pegula, you know? Right.
9:36
No, no, I get, I got you. I, uh, Andreva and Coco, though, are feeling very, very short priced to me. And this is- Well, you gotta get... But we've- No, I know... we've tried. I, no, I know.
9:46
We're gonna- Oh, I just hit the microphone. For those of you not watching, I just smoked the microphone in my hand. [laughs] I know the field has gotten smaller. Yeah. I understand that, but man, that is still...
9:55
I, I mean, we haven't really seen Iga or Sabalenka, their prices dip too much from the open. Yeah, no, this, it, it's true.
10:01
But I mean, again, as it shrinks though, you would, you would assume that the players that do at least have a little bit of pedigree, their number- Hmm...
10:08
is at least gonna come down with the size of, uh, with the size of everything. So again, this is ongoing.
10:13
We'll keep you updated on, uh, on how these matches progress throughout the course of the next hour as we are on here.
10:19
We'll be moving into golf next segment, kind of recapping not only for a final time of what we saw th- this past week as well, but look forward to a couple weeks from now. Man, did you...
10:30
I guess you did, but- Benny's got some bets... that was the second to last? That was the second to last, uh, signature event? Dude, I know. I, I, I, I know.
10:38
And this was, what's funny is these are the things I know, remember I, I know I texted that to you and Wesla at the beginning of the week. [laughs] This is a,
10:45
these are the things that I remember us saying at the beginning of the s- uh, of the season. Yeah. Of like, "Hey," like, you know, "mark your calendars for one and done's purposes.
10:54
Like, we're gonna roll through a lot of these signature events early in the season." But man, when it hits you last week, you're like, "This is the second to last one?" There's still two more majors. Yeah.
11:02
How, how does that make sense schedule-wise? Yeah, I, I don't, I don't know, man. Like, it's just to me, I, I'm like- And it might be to rethink that.
11:08
Yeah, you know, I don't know if everybody's aware, but you know, when you have NBA and NHL coming to a close here during the summer and football not starting for a couple months, you might wanna try to highlight the sport a little bit more in the middle of the summer.
11:18
Yeah, 'cause there's gonna be a whole bunch of tournaments that are coming up where it's like the top guy in the field is like 35th in the world or something- Yeah... or whatever, something like that.
11:27
When Aaron Rai's your favorite at the John Deere Classic, yeah. [laughs] Which is a very real scenario. Yeah, it is. Much, much more real than most people actually know.
11:36
So we'll take a look ahead to what's coming up in golf this week. We'll take a look two weeks down the road into our final, into, to the next major of the season as well. It is a numbers game here on VSIN.
11:46
[upbeat music] A numbers game on VSIN, the sports betting network.
12:05
The numbers game here on VSIN. Matt Brown on the desk for Gil Alexander. Kelly Biblin here with me as we roll through what's going on over in the golf world.
12:14
A quick bow on the memorial I gave my, what was, what was determined to be a rant By Jesse what?
12:21
I thought it was just a take on Scottie Scheffler a little bit earlier, but- Here was the short version: Scottie Scheffler's good at golf. Yeah, there you go.
12:28
I'd spent a whole, yeah, three minutes talking about it and basically saying just that. But he does win the Memorial back-to-back now, $4 million for his efforts. So good for Scottie Scheffler.
12:39
He's actually good for the caddie. Uh, yeah, yeah. Another guy who I don't think we really need to worry about their bank accounts much. Man, let me tell you. You get- I don't know.
12:48
Certainly he's worked out some sort of other deal, or maybe not. Scottie Scheffler seems like such an incredible guy that he still just pays 10% every single time, so he's just hucking out 400K like- Oh...
12:58
with every win. You're going down the road of, like, how you tip out properly when you win big contests or jackpots in this town. Like, the, the percentage needs to come down.
13:07
Well, no, I'm just wondering if the caddie goes to Scottie and says, "Hey, man, look." "I'll take less. Just don't kick me off the bag." Uh, yeah, like, like, "I'm good for 8% or whatever. I'm good for 5%.
13:18
You win so much money, I'm good for, I'm good for it." I'm gonna guess that conversation hasn't come up at all. That's what I'm saying. Yeah. With Scottie Scheffler, probably not. Yeah, Scottie's, yeah, yeah.
13:26
He just, this guy, you know what he says? He probably not only- He hands it to him with a smile every time, you know? Just like- Absolutely, yeah...
13:31
"Here's your 400K," and he smiles and he- Have you ever heard of anybody doing that? They pa- Making the caddie take less? Well, I've heard of fill-in caddies agreeing to- Right...
13:40
so, like, when they- And, and we had, what? The whole Kuchar incident- Yeah... right out in Mexico. Yeah, like, I've heard fill-in caddies taking less, and- Me too. Yeah. So I don't know.
13:48
I, it's just something to think about whenever you're like, "Okay, this guy's winning $20 million a year," you know? Like- God, I would love to be the, a fly on the wall in that conversation though.
13:59
You know what I'm saying? Like, it's like- Yeah, yeah. No, I get it... like, the caddie's making two mil right off the top, whatever- You're a team, Matt. You gotta pay him the two mil...
14:07
plus whatever side stuff he's got going on. Because if you're Scottie Scheffler's caddie, you're making money elsewhere, for sure. You got money coming in. He's probably sponsored by Rolex or something.
14:17
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I, yeah, NetJets and, yeah- Yeah... all that sort of stuff. The, uh, Ted Scott. I was blanking on- Yeah, Ted Scott, yeah. Yeah. Um,
14:24
it's a, imagine, imagine being in the room for that conversation, though, where you're like, "Look, I'm winning a lot. You're taking home a lot. Like, we might need to dial this back." Oh, that would get ugly quick.
14:34
You gotta be, you gotta be prepared to, uh, to, to lose Ted on the bag forever. I don't think Scottie Scheffler wants to have that happen. We'll get into the golf here as we move up to Canada.
14:43
Uh, real quick, for everybody out there, this is just a PSA, the Masters lottery is now open if you wanna go in. If you love rejection, go in and sign up.
14:52
Fill out, fill out all that just to get an email in about three weeks that says your selection was not picked. But it is out there for anyone that wants to go inside. So how many times has that happened to you?
15:02
27 straight years now, I guess. You've done it that many years? 20, yeah. I mean, I did it- I did not know that... I did it since, like, early college. Wow, okay. I did not know that.
15:11
Like, yeah, so I don't know, whatever, 20, maybe, whatever, 24 years, something like that. You were there, what, last year? Yes, I went last year, but it was not because I won the lottery. Right, okay. Yeah.
15:21
It was not because I won the lottery. I just had to buy third-party tickets. So yeah. Well, well, good luck. Which also, which, by the way, they frown upon.
15:27
[laughs] That is, uh, that's the other thing, that they frown upon that. Like you- So, like, maybe you shouldn't say it on a national radio show?
15:32
You go, you go in and, uh, you go in and you get briefed by the people that are giving you these tickets as to where you got them, who you got them from. You learn, like, the family's backstory- Yep...
15:42
and all of that and everything because, like, it can only be gifted. It cannot be sold, right? And so you can't, uh, can't buy these things technically. Family's backstory? Oh, yeah.
15:53
That is- You got this person- That is creepy, man... yeah, whatever, blah, blah, blah. They've had it in the family for whatever.
15:58
They do this, that, whatever, and you got it because you're their, you're the cousin's brother-in-law, or whatever, you're the cousin's husband or something. Man. Yeah. Wonder if the Wilson family works.
16:08
It's a covering your rear end thing. Yeah. You know? As well with all of that. Okay, guys, the VSiN Daily Morning Bets podcast, your first look into the day's betting line, sharp action, and market moves.

Listen, let's just say, let's just, let's, let's peel the curtain back again. I'm shaming you if you still have an Android phone. Just go and get an iPhone. Everybody doesn't like you. Everyone hates you.
16:55
They talk about you behind your back whenever your green message shows up in the thing. Uh, if you're like- Just go get an iPhone... if you're like me, they don't talk to you about, uh, about it behind your back.
17:02
They say it to your face. It's annoying as hell. Get an iPhone. Did you- Can't have these group messages. Did you have, did you, did you ever go Android ever? No. Or you've, you've just been iPhone since day one?
17:11
No, since day one. Yeah. Yeah. I've ventured- S- since what? I wanna say, like, '0- uh, like, '06, '07, something like that.
17:20
I've ventured over one time for, like, three months because it was the whole give you this awesome new phone absolutely free if you do, you know, whatever and all that.
17:29
And I was like, "Okay, how much different can it..." The answer's a lot different. Yeah. That's how, that's how different it can be. You, I felt like I didn't even know what was going on.
17:36
I didn't know how to answer the calls. I didn't know how to do anything. So it was just not, it was not fun. I don't like it. I went from Razor to iPhone, so whatever year that was.
17:44
Ooh, you- Those Razors were badass, though, back in the day- You were-... man. Are you kidding me? You, you were the cool kid. I was styling- Oh, yeah... in Florida- You were the cool kid... staying with that Razor.
17:50
You kidding me? Yeah, you were the cool kid. Woo-hoo. You were the cool kid, and people that had Razors were cool. I did not, I did not have a Razor. Yeah. Yep, yep. I wish I, I wish I'd have had a Razor.
17:58
All right, so we're gonna head to Canada for this. TPC Toronto, RBC Canadian Open. It's about 7,400 yards, par 70 in this one here. Uh, Kelly, the field is very likely to...
18:12
I'm sure we're going to get some withdrawals today as well. Yeah. We kind of tend to see this with all of this. As we sit right now, Rory McIlroy is going to play. Ludwig is going to play.
18:21
But then the drop-off is, is pretty- Uh, big from there. Down to Corey Conners, Shane Lowry, Sam Burns, Bob McIntyre, and then once you get past Bob McIntyre at 30 to 1, Kelly, the next guy, Harry Hall.
18:32
So that's, like, where we get... It, it is, like, a couple of big names, a couple mid names, and then it falls off a cliff pretty quickly. Yes, it does. I'm just scanning through this right now.
18:41
Yeah, I guess the names that you'd most wanna watch out for, I mean, Ludwig, Ludwig. I'd imagine Conners is gonna play, but, like, Ludwig, Shane Lowry may be the most likely to, to withdraw if you were gonna have that.
18:53
Rory's gonna play. We know that. He skipped last week. Mm-hmm. Um, he's- Yeah, Rory's gonna give it a go... yeah, has played here the past couple years now, so that, that, that should be expected.
19:02
Um, man, I don't know where you're at. I, I think odds at the top, I'm not really surprised by that plus 450. Uh, I, I think a few weeks ago I would've said this is gonna be short, uh, R- uh, Rory a little shorter- Mm...
19:13
uh, in this event with the rest of the names that are in here, but I think plus 450, man, that, I, I think there's some, some concerns and some things Rory's- Sure... gotta work on before we head into the US Open.
19:22
R- Rory is not, Rory is not Scotty. Scotty goes out and Scotty is just automatic, right? Like, his swing is the same every single time. Everything works the same every single time. Everything is just programmed.
19:33
It, it's not the same way with Rory. I mean, like, we saw a couple years ago we didn't bet him because the wedges weren't working.
19:38
Then we got to a point where he was spraying off the tee a little bit too much for our liking.
19:41
There's, there, there, there always seems to be at least something at work a little bit with Rory, where you don't get that from a Scotty standpoint. That being said, I mean, plus 110 on top five,
19:53
it, it includes ties as well. Yeah. So, I mean, it's, it's like, it, it includes ties. That's at least somewhat tempting.
19:59
I mean, unless he just completely falls off here in a course that is, is gettable, uh, I mean, it's a driver-heavy course, you know? And, like, that's where he exceeds. I think I will be right back to a...
20:11
Yeah, no, I like that. I like that. The other one that's jumping out to me right now, I, f- look, I played it last week and finally lost, but it cashed, like, in six of the last seven tournaments in four had.
20:20
Co- of cour- uh, I mean, Corey Conners top 20- Mm... minus 110 is staring me at the, is staring me in the face. Yeah. Uh, a Canadian guy, too. He's gonna wanna show up for his home, his home open, uh, play well.
20:31
Uh, yeah, I know you and I have been betting him pretty regularly here recently.
20:34
I, I don't know if I'm there for the, for the outright win yet with Corey Conners, but man, I think top 20 I'll keep, I'll keep it playing him in that market.
20:41
And minus 110, pro- it's actually probably one of those, Matt, that I'll probably bet earlier in the week 'cause I think that's only gonna get bet on and move, uh, to a shorter number.
20:50
So that might actually be one that I plu- plug in right after the show here.
20:53
I think for me in this one, in a tournament in which, again, it's a driver-heavy course, which really is what separates Rory from the rest of the field,
21:01
I think I'm going to be looking at maybe firing on some of these longer shot guys and then just kind of walking away from this tournament, and, like, and just hoping that Rory finishes third or something- Yeah...
21:12
as opposed to winning it because it's just, you know, he, he should win. I mean, like, you look at some of these dudes who... Max Homa we have seen at least shades of the old Max Homa.
21:22
Now, he struggled mightily a couple different rounds. Played a good round as well this past week. He's out, like, at 60 to 1. Do you try to- He's, he's getting there number-wise...
21:32
it's, like, yeah, it's like, do you try- Like, that one jumped out to me... so I'm saying, like, do you try to, like, catch him on the o- on the way up before things get crazy with him?
21:40
I mean, we've kind of seen a little bit of Wyndham Clark as well, where it's like he'll throw one good round in with two bad rounds. Can he figure it out? Has he got something going on?
21:49
I mean, maybe I'm just throwing it on some of these, like, s- 50, 60 to 1 dudes and then just moving on. I mean, Sam Burns is out to 30 to 1 in this weak field. Burns went 75, 65, 74,
22:02
like, at, at, uh, on the first three days of the Memorial this past week. So he literally shot 65- Yeah... on Friday only to come back and shoot 74 again on Saturday.
22:12
So, I mean, he's, you know, he's, he's as crazy as they come. Man, Seth Thigpen all the way down to 80 to 1 too now. Wow. So, uh, so this is what, th- this is what we're talking about.
22:20
Going back to your, your Scotty- Mm... Scheffler ran a little bit.
22:23
It's, we- we've seen a lot of the mid-range guys you can't really trust, and some guys that were in the mid-range, like the Homos and the Thigpens and stuff, have just fallen off the face of the planet.
22:32
I, I, you can't back them with money right now. Unbeli- the rant. Called it a rant yet again, Kelly. I expect better from you.
22:38
When we come back, from the west wing of whatever mansion that he is at across this country of ours, we're gonna have Ben Wilson in with us. [upbeat music] A numbers game on VSiN, the sports betting network.

23:33
He might be at one of their islands that they have. We'll see. But he, joining us, our very own Ben Wilson from who knows where. What wing of what estate are you, uh, joining us from right now, Ben?
23:44
I mean, I know you've got your Torrey Pines hat on right now. You're alluding to the fact that maybe you're in San Diego, but maybe you're at the villa in the Bahamas. Maybe you're at y'all's place over in Monaco.
23:55
I don't know what's going on. Where are you at? Yes, I'm gonna let everybody down here, Matt.
24:00
Uh, well, I was at Circuit till, uh, about 11:00 PM Pacific last night since I was hosting, and so as a result, I am actually here in, uh, here in Vegas. Oh. As, as alluded to my arena football, uh, I pointed at it.
24:12
I'm like, I have arena football towel behind me- Oh, couldn't, uh-... on the wall, so yeah... couldn't get in the car and roll down here, huh? Yeah, yeah. Couldn't just hang out- Yeah... for another nine more hours, huh?
24:20
Really didn't wanna do something. Yeah. I got, look, I got lots of things to, lot, there's a lot of things on the docket today. I, I, you know, rolling town, I was, I, I, I gotta be in town for longer.
24:28
I feel bad, but, uh, yes, it was, it was a short jaunt here and I'm- Heading back home right after this Kelly Bidlin. Oh, he's hanging around for us, though- Okay... Matt. That's what he's doing.
24:37
So I guess we can feel a little special. Yeah, no, he could just be- He could be in the car, okay? That's true. That's true. Could be worse. We'll feel a little bit special from that as well.
24:43
All right, Ben, let's start out- Yeah... on the, uh, on the tennis side of things. What was your position heading into this tournament, and has it changed as we've kind of progressed?
24:54
Yeah, so, look, women's side, I felt like it's a great position for Aryna Sabalenka to be in, someone who's been in... We talked about this last week on the show.
25:04
She's clearly been in the better form of, uh, Iga Świątek, and, and Iga, um, you know, got this horrible draw, yet she's been able to make it work. So I, I haven't really changed my position from a macro perspective.
25:14
Sabalenka, Świątek, they're still your, pretty much your co-favorites right now, and you have Sabalenka on the top half. A little more simpler path to me to get to the, the championship round.
25:25
Where, where it's been interesting here is Iga has this amazing comeback yesterday against Rybakina, where she looks totally down and out, gets blown out in the first set, and you're thinking, "Okay, this is what we've watched in the run-up."
25:36
And she somehow figures out a way, and I think a lot of people now are starting to believe this.
25:41
And in a lot of ways, it looks like some of the Nadal years when he came into the French banged up, not playing great tennis, and then it just didn't matter because he was just unbelievably better than anybody else handling that particular surface.
25:53
So I haven't... I'm not fully in the camp of I think now Świątek has just gotten rid of all the previous demons and she's just gonna roll here and Sabalenka [laughs] won't be able to touch her.
26:02
I don't think that's necessarily fair to say because even within Świątek's quarter, she has pr- at least one if not two more ridiculously tough matches still to come.
26:12
But we're definitely getting to that point where it, it seems pretty 50/50, and I think it's, it's fair now that the odds have come and, and valued those two players basically the same.
26:22
Um, having said that, I still think now that the market is getting very back to a pro-Świątek position. Uh, look, the match against Svitolina's gonna be an absolute war. I thought that was a pretty generous price.
26:33
Svitolina's in your 3 to 1 here.
26:35
So, uh, taking the games handicap for me is the way to go, plus four and a half, and that could be a super tight, you know, four and four Świątek straight set win and you still cash your ticket.
26:45
So that's how I'm specifically gonna play the quarter, uh, round here for Świątek, but, uh, still so many good players left, and that's what makes that bottom half of the, the draw so tough.
26:55
Uh, Ben, Matt kind of dodged this question earlier, so I'm gonna ask you. Uh, w- if it's not, if it's not Iga or Sabalenka, who else are we talking about getting into the final?
27:05
Yeah, I, I really like both Mirra Andreeva and, uh, and Coco Gauff, so, um- You gotta pick one. [laughs] And well, well, I, I, I'm, I'm... Look, I'm, I'm very, I'm very aware I, I have to pick one. Mm-hmm.
27:15
I'm just, you're just set, setting me up here. Mm-hmm. Um, so, so Gauff and Andreeva, they both win today.
27:21
Um, I p- I personally, like, Gauff's return numbers have been absolutely amazing, and so I was a little skeptical. She was a very popular, um, kind of dark...
27:29
not dark horse player, but kind of like second tier bet as the fourth favorite, and she's trading now in that, uh, you know, just sub 5 to 1 range.
27:37
I would say it's her just 'cause the, like, the way she covers the court and is able to, uh, anticipate so many of these angles at, um, Roland Garros, y- you obviously have an advantage, but you also have to, you know, take advantage of that opportunity with the slower surface.
27:50
Gauff's been incredible. Best, best returner now on tour over the last 52 weeks on clay.
27:55
Uh, the way she looked today against Alexandrova, who was a great returner herself, bagels her in the first set and, uh, and really rolled in that match. I would, I would say it's Coco right now.
28:05
What about the men's side? Uh, we're looking at a number actually kind of coming down a little bit on Alcaraz to win it all, minus 110 right now. Sinner sitting two to one. Djokovic is at eight to one.
28:14
Zverev at 15 to one. Draper at 16 to one. Musetti at 20. Everybody else 80 or longer. Is there anything... Let's just say you had absolutely nothing in the account.
28:23
I'm gonna come and I'm gonna give you 100 free Matt bucks and you're able to come in a- and place a wager. What do you like?
28:29
Yeah, it's, it's gotta be, uh, like it's for 100% Sinner adding, you know, to your portfolio right now if you had nothing. Just because- Hmm...
28:36
I think the question was what would his form look like coming off of a, a suspension stretch? He got pretty well comprehensively beaten down at his home tournament by Alcaraz in Rome leading into this event.
28:48
But the way Sinner's looked so far, I mean, plus 190, that kind of implies if it is an Alcaraz, Sinner, uh, you know, death march here and, and that's what we end up getting as the de facto final, you'd, you'd be looking at Alcaraz price, what, probably in the one, minus 150, 160 range, and you're getting Sinner, uh, probably in a plus 130, plus 40 spot, which, based on, you know, no, no matter what you wanna say about how Alcaraz has looked i- in the past couple years at Roland Garros, that should be a price that is a little bit closer to 50/50 than the current implied futures odds would suggest.
29:20
So simply based on value, I would add some Sinner. Um, w- it's such a tough stretch, too. As good as Djokovic has looked, the fact that he's, you know, plays today, then they ask that they have to turn around tomorrow.
29:30
You get the immediate, uh, that immediate two game, two match window in two days before the three-day break until Friday.
29:37
That's a really tough ask, uh, for Djokovic, and even if he gets through to that semi, I don't see Sinner, uh, really having, uh, uh, tons of problems even in the five-set format that Djokovic has certainly relied on.
29:48
Uh, Benny, college baseball now. We saw a lot, uh, a lot of the big, uh, teams go down over the weekend. I know you're looking at one bet that you have today.
29:57
Walk us through that, and then who do you think is the team to beat, uh, that's left now?
30:02
Well, I, I, I would wish r- I really wish my play was last night and that it was Arkansas Little Rock, just a s- a strict fade of, uh, Matt Brown and- Oh, yeah, yeah... 189 plus. I was waiting, I was waiting on that.
30:12
Wow. Dude, that was a tough watch. Did you watch that thing? That was a tough one. Yeah. 11 walks? Oh, boy. LSU walked 11 guys. Oh, boy. It was, oh, it was a hard r- it was a tough watch. It was a tough watch.
30:23
There are some... Look, and I've called, you know, call a lot of college baseball.
30:27
Every once in a while you get a game where there's, like, nine combined errors, 20 walks, and it is, uh, it's a tough f- it's a tough call. [laughs] Uh, you're, you're trying to, like, give yourself a pep talk.
30:37
I'm like, "Okay, only, like, two more hours. I can get through this." [laughs] I think the obvious I'm not... This is not the worst thing in the world. I can call this baseball game. But it, yeah, easier said than done.
30:46
Uh, no, I... LS- LSU should be fine tonight. What an amazing story though, the, the Trojans of Little Rock have been.
30:51
I'll go to the a- actually the other number four seed, guys, in Murray State, who is 30 to 1 to win this regional. They upset Ole Miss in the very first game, get off to a 2 and 0 start.
31:01
So the good thing for Murray State, and they're big dogs today, uh, once again, because Ole Miss slaughtered them last night.
31:07
But that game got out of hand so quick that Murray State, who actually has, for a four seed, pretty good bullpen depth, they had the best defense of any of the four teams in that Oxford Regional.
31:17
So I already thought that the Racers were, you know, at least a team that could hang in some of these games. I didn't think they'd start 2 and 0 and be in the driver's seat in the regional.
31:26
But because the game got so out of hand last night, they kind of just punted. They threw in a, you know, a lot of randos out of the pen. They took their lumps. They immediately, you know, got crushed.
31:35
That game was over quick. But Murray State at least has the ability now to, to regroup a little bit and, and kind of get everything back in order. So I took them run line. You're getting three and a half runs.
31:45
I guess the danger of it is these have been such high-scoring games in the regional that, you know, could this game end up like 12-8 or something and, you know, and, and it's a close game, you feel like they're out, but Ole Miss just puts up one or two more crooked numbers.
31:58
Yes. I think it just, it just speaks to the fact though that when you lose your first game in a regional, it is so hard to, to run that table, even if you're the number one seed.
32:07
Only 7% of teams all time who have lost their first games in a regional then come back and advance to supers, and we actually have a few teams tonight trying to do that. A couple of them are number one seeds.
32:18
But I just look at Ole Miss, they go deep. They go to the championship game of the SEC tournament. Pitching has really been taxed.
32:24
They have a lot of good bullpen arms, Ole Miss, and they're 18 to 1 right now to, to win it all. Wouldn't be a bad futures play if they get through tonight. Uh, I...
32:31
But you're thinking about all the different arms who have been stretched, taxed with no margin for error.
32:35
I see this being m- a much tighter game tonight in Oxford, and I think Ole Miss probably s- squeaks away with like a one or two run win.
32:43
All right, Ben, we know you gotta get to the jet so you can get back over to, uh, so you can get back over to the villa in, in San Diego. So we appreciate your time today, buddy. And all that LSU trash talk right there.
32:54
No, no, no. What, what's the handicap these days, real quick? Look, no, I mean, e- they're gonna get... They'll be fine tonight. Uh, I actually would probably power rate them, and if they win- Yeah...
33:03
they'll probably go back to number one over Arkansas. I, I think they are the best team. Like Arkansas I saw earlier in the year, great pitching. O- offense has been hit or miss, especially in these big games.
33:12
So keep in mind, Arkansas-Tennessee gonna be your super, which, uh, that is a, just an unreal super to see who will go to Omaha. He is Ben Wilson.
33:20
You can find him right here on the network, of course, calling all kinds of stuff across all of the networks out there, Ben. Do appreciate the time, and good luck on all your bets.
33:30
When we come back, guys, we're gonna put a bow on this Monday edition of A Numbers Game. See if we can't get some bets from Kelly Bidlin in the account as well. Let's go. That was your fault. Bad question.
33:40
[upbeat music] A Numbers Game on VSiN, the sports betting network.
33:58
Final segment here on A Numbers Game. Matt Brown in for Gil Alexander. Kelly Bidlin on the desk with me here.
34:04
Roberto Moreno from behind the glass tweets at us and wants to know if we're looking forward to the enhanced games, which by the way, that is the- Yeah...
34:11
kind of like pseudo Olympics in which they will allow you to take performance-enhancing drugs to see what the human body is capable of. I, I couldn't remember the name.
34:20
I was thinking of it as we were discussing, uh, baseball, but the, uh... I don't really understand how that's supposed to work. I don't know about you, I didn't read up o- that much on it. Like, are you really- So-...
34:29
you really planning on getting that many people out there that are, are, are... Apparently all of them have to be pro, pro drugs, right? [laughs] Like you're not, you're not joining that knowing- Well, I don't-...
34:39
knowing that everybody else is on steroids and you're not I don't people like walking around with shirts that say, "I take drugs," and pro drugs- [laughs]... and like waving flags that say like, uh...
34:47
No, I, I don't think that's what it's all about. But it- No, I'm saying, I'm saying if you, if you are some sprinter who's not on 'roids- I don't think they're like pro drugs.
34:53
I think they're just kind of like, "Hey, look, if you take some of this stuff in the right manner and you don't abuse it, it's not like..." Sure. You know?
35:01
But also if I'm not on anything, I'm not showing up to compete against people that are. Yeah. Well, this will be a good litmus test, right? Because do they actually run faster? Do they actually jump higher?
35:12
Do they actually... But then here's, here's what's gonna happen. Yeah, I only care about the steroids though. If they don't, if they don't, the argument then will just be, well, they're not the elite athletes.
35:21
They're not the most elite athletes as it is anyway. Now, if you gave the super elite athletes all of the good stuff, then they actually would run faster or jump higher or et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
35:30
No, you're right. That, that would be... Those are the arguments. That's gonna be the argument.
35:32
Like, so now no matter what these people put up- So can the, can the one tier down athletes or more match the world-class athletes? Mm. It's really more of that, right? Are you gonna see similar numbers?
35:43
I mean, listen, I have, uh, I've taken just massive amounts of steroids to try to help my golf game here, Kelly, you know, and it's- How's that working?... just not... Yeah, it just, uh, just doesn't.
35:51
[laughs] No, not working? N- n- not happening for me at all. All right. I got a couple more tweets. Okay. Chris Heath, uh, tweeted in, uh, "iPhone was invented in '09." I was off by a couple years. Hm.
36:00
That sound right to you? Yeah. I, I would've guessed '06, '07, something like that. Okay. All right. Um, and then we have... Well, I got pr- uh, pronunciation on Lois. Lois Boissone. Oh. That's the correct pronunciation.
36:12
And I got a text- Lois... from a friend of the program, Todd Bubba Horowitz. What up, Todd? Who said, "Here's a green message for you. I hate the iPhone, and I hate being locked into their technology."
36:25
So he is an Android user, so I guess that I was actually talking trash about, uh, about our buddy out there.
36:29
I like his sentence to have locked into their technology 'cause the last time I went and got a new phone, I, I, I stopped the Apple Store salesman dead in his tracks. I was like, "I don't need the pitch.
36:39
Like, I've been doing this for 15 years. Just load me up with a new phone already, man. Like, you don't gotta sell me on anything. I sold my soul to you guys 15 years ago."
36:47
Like, listen, I- Just get me in and out of here... you're like, "I have, I have no interest in another phone. I know exactly what I want." Yeah. "You don't even need to tell me what this new phone does.
36:55
I won't use half the stuff anyway." I just need battery life. You know the- Just b- better battery life... the whole commercial, like, for this new phone was based around that they had the, whatever the, the AI thing.
37:05
You know, like the phone- Yeah, yeah... was, like, glowing and all that. I never want you.
37:07
I've n- I, I just- I never want you to- I, I accidentally hit it all the time and I'm like, "Oh, wait, I better stop this before it goes and, like, pays for something or whatever." Before it learns something about me.
37:15
Yeah. Yeah. Oh, God, what am I gonna say that's gonna get me fired, you know? No, no, I'm more worried about having, like, all of our c- credit cards are attached now to Apple Pay and just what...
37:23
Like, you, you could be walking around with that thing in your pocket and be like, "G- I wanna buy this," and then before you know it, show it up at your doorstep.
37:29
What I'm terrified is the AI bots are learning all about all of us, and then whenever they actually become smarter than us and then know how to use it against us. So we're gonna start getting blackmailed by the A- by AI.
37:40
Like, we're gonna be talking to ChatGPT and telling them all of our, like, deepest, darkest secrets and things like that, and then as it starts to think for itself, then it's gonna be like, "Oh, I can use that against this guy," and then he's gonna...
37:50
The, the A- the AI technology's gonna start blackmailing us. Well, I'm glad we haven't thought about this. This is too far down the road. All right, yeah. Like, that, that's a scary thought, yeah.
37:58
No, I don't wanna get involved with that. That's... Uh, but it's the truth. That's what's gonna happen here. So we just gotta live, live...
38:03
But live every day like it's your last because [laughs] you know, it's gonna be, it's gonna be bad whenever the AI takes over for everything. Let's get to our G Bank best bets. Uh, just one for me here in this one.
38:13
I'm taking the over four and a half strikeouts for Logan Webb. Logan Webb has changed things up this year, has become a much higher strikeout pitcher.
38:21
If you look over the course of his career, we're talking about a guy, 21% K rate, 18.7% K rate, 20.7, 22.8. We're looking at all of that, and then you get to this year, 27.9.
38:34
Logan Webb has figured out how to miss bats a whole lot more. That swinging strike rate up to 11.7% off of the 8.5% last year, and this has not come at the expense of walking more batters.
38:47
He's actually on his career level, about 5.6%, so still low walk rate for him as well. Great control, just missing more bats and striking more guys out. So Logan Webb over on the four and a half strikeouts today for me.
39:01
All right, cool. I like it. Nothing for me today. I have made two NBA Finals plays so far. Reminder, I do have, uh, some futures tickets on the Thunder to win the finals that I'll be rolling in with.
39:11
But regardless, Matt, we talked about it earlier. I did play Thunder to win in five, uh, on the series correct score market for one, uh, plus 215. We, we were looking at those DraftKings prices earlier.
39:21
What was that, plus 250? Yeah. Plus 260 on that? Mm. That's a very, very big difference. Shop around. That was the best I... that it was available to me, uh, here in town. So played plus 215.
39:31
I think if I was going into this cold, it would probably be play, uh, Thunder in five, and then maybe sprinkle a little on Thunder in six. I think I'm in the camp. I think we... It's a chance we go to six.
39:43
Better chance of going to six than a b- than a sweep by the Thunder. Uh, but I do like the Thunder in five. And then the other bet that I made, Lu Dort, uh, to lead the series in three-pointers made at six to one.
39:54
I think this is an interesting, uh, an interesting bet, Matt. You've got, you've got Haliburton, who is the favorite in this market. Mm-hmm.
39:59
But we've seen the quality of perimeter defenders that the Thunder have and are gonna be able to continuously throw at Haliburton.
40:05
I think you could make the argument, a- and this would be my bigger concern, uh, for betting against him, is that, man, if this offense does bog down, slow down at all, how often do we just see end of shot clock Haliburton launching from deep?
40:18
Yeah, it might turn into that. I do expect this Thunder defense to be that good. But with the weapons that, uh, that the off- uh, the offense has on the Oklahoma City side, man, I...
40:29
The attention is gonna have to be drawn elsewhere from the not at, not as good defense on Indiana's side.
40:35
I think Lu Dort's gonna be looking at a lot of open three-point attempts, uh, f- during this, the course of this series. So it's six to one.
40:41
I was hoping to get a little bit more, 'cause I do think Haliburton's a right, rightful favorite in this market. Six to one, though, was a buy-on for me.
40:47
I think anything longer than that definitely would be something I'm interested in. But, uh, a couple series bets, uh, for you so far. Mr. The Ben Wilson joined us just a second ago.
40:56
He is going to play Svitolina plus four and a half games, uh, versus Iga Swiatek, so you can go and get that about minus 105 is where he saw that.
41:06
And over on the college baseball side of things, he's gonna take the three and a half runs with Murray State against Ole Miss. So those are the two bets in his account.
41:14
Kelly, I did go find that bet that we were talking about. This is just at DraftKings. Always shop around. I'm sure it's available at other books, and I don't know if it has a better, uh, price or not.
41:24
But to kind of piggyback off of the thing that you were looking at- Yeah... Oklahoma City to win game one, Oklahoma City to win series -275 at DraftKings. That's, that's correct.
41:34
It is, it is under the series markets tab, and then there's a little subtab in there that says game X/series double. So that's where you can go and find that bet. That, that's the best price I've heard on that so far.
41:47
That would be... I- if I was sitting here with not a single play o- on the NBA Finals, that would be the number one play I would make. We're gonna introduce the $500 trifecta from G Bank, First Bet, and VSiN here.
41:57
Guys, all you gotta do, open up a G Bank Visa Signature credit card in the first 90 days, deposit and play through $1,000 at First Bet to trigger the $500 trifecta. You'll get $200 in cashback rewards. For your GSA...
42:09
[laughs] Uh, Gee, G Bank Visa Signature card, First Bet will give you $100 deposit match. Then VSiN completes the trifecta with a VSiN Pro subscription. So there's your $500 trifecta from G Bank, First Bet, and VSiN.
42:21
Head over to vsin.com/gbank, vsin.com slash the letter G-B-A-N-K. It is a one-time promotion. It's limited to customers opening a new account in response to this very offer.
42:33
It's not gonna apply to requests to convert existing accounts. Apply today. Terms and conditions do apply. Again, vsin.com/gbank. So that one, Kelly, is available.
42:44
Pacers to win game one, but Oklahoma City to win the series. So Pacers to steal- Yeah... game one, but OKC to win the series plus 475. These, these- Not as sexy... these are usually the reason I even look at that market.
42:57
If you think there's a chance that the dog- Yeah... steals game one, and then you can go play a favorite. But no, I think this is where you go favorite-favorite in this market.
43:04
Then, uh, Pacers to win game one, Pacers to win the series 11 to 1. And- Man, you, man, you should be... Eh, no, no, okay. I was gonna say, I f- feel like you should be getting better odds than that on that...
43:15
and then Thunder to win game one, but then the Pacers to win the series, which is never happening. That's [laughs] What are the odds on that? J- just 12 to 1. That's insane. That one's no good. That one, that one's no...
43:24
That's not happening. That's not happening. [laughs] Thunder- That's never happening... the Thunder not winning game one, and then the Pacers come back and win the series. Yeah, that's not happening.
43:32
But- I can't get over... So we do have some college baseball today. These are all regional close-out games. Mm-hmm. I can't get o- I just pulled up your LSU game. I can't get over this number. [laughs] Minus 1850?
43:40
They, they are. Uh, no. How about over at FanDuel right now, minus 2500 on the Moneyline. Yeah, that is the, uh, Moneyline mi- Well, then shop around for that one. Yeah. For sure.
43:49
Arkansas, Little Rack, uh, Little Rock, [laughs] nine to one on the comeback there. You could take four and a half runs with Little Rock at plus 260. The emotional hedge for anybody out there in Baton Rouge, right?
44:00
Just go in. If you happen to lose, at least you can make some money along the way. Is that kinda what we're gonna go with? I mean, I think, yeah.
44:05
I think for you and your buddies, what I would try to do is if you could find the alt run line, take, uh, Little Rock plus one and a half. So then you, one run game, you don't gotta deal with it all.
44:14
Take that out, take that out of the picture, and you still get a nice, uh, nice return. Stick around on the network for the next four hours.
44:20
Next two hours you've got Money Moves, then followed by Prop Points, and then Make It Rain. Don't go anywhere. Good luck on all your bets today. [upbeat music]
