Hour 1 - Rigging the NBA System

This week marks the 7th anniversary of the repeal of PASPA, ushering in the widescale legalization of American sports betting we enjoy today. This week on the show, Action Network hosts Chad Millman and Simon Hunter dive into a subject we’ve talked a lot about on this show the last couple years, especially this past NFL season: the decline of the underdog for bettors across multiple sports. Since the repeal of PASPA, and especially in the NFL, historically profitable underdog situations have become quite hte opposite. To help us dive into the numbers behind this trend, Evan Abrams, statistical maven and Action Network Director of Research & Media, joins the show. #VolumeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
