Starting point is 00:00:00 You could have all the winners in the world, but if you don't have nobody to give them to, your games don't mean nothing. Right. So, you know, I love when a guy calls himself the goat. Last time I checked, Sean, somebody gives you the name the goat. Is that is that not true? Or no, it is. You can't self-proclaim that. No, they claim to be goats. But what they're like is wotes, the worst of all time or a coat, a corny, corniest of all time. We are back on the Digital Social hour got a vegas legend with us in the building today steve stevens yes sir what's going on brother got the drip on today man oh just something light man a little daytime piece you know what i mean iced out with got the louis and
Starting point is 00:00:36 the sneakers all right you got to stay clean you got to stay focused you know what i mean you look good feel good you make money right oh yeah what you've been working on lately man man as you know uh right now it's uh football season so college football nfl's in full effect you know unlike any other time of the year everybody comes out to bet football right grandma grandpa the valet parker the chef the fucking everybody you could think of loves to watch football and in bet yeah you've been betting for what 20 25 years man I've been betting since I was 12 years old. Damn. I used to go into Arizona Charlie's.
Starting point is 00:01:09 No. It's a little hotel over there on Decatur. We used to go in there, 11, 12 years old, put in bets. And they used to have the 99 cent buffet too. So we'd go in there and tear it up. That sounds amazing. Yeah, because I come from nothing, brother. I lived in North Las Vegas.
Starting point is 00:01:23 Streets. Grew up in a predominantly black neighborhood. you know gave me a little game though made me who i am today i love it got that street crowd i mean it's impressive that you're in the betting game that long because most people fizzle out oh 100 you know one thing you got to understand about my industry man is it's so saturated now yeah i don't i i agree with the people when they tell you that they don't know who's real and who's fake because it's very hard to tell. You've got thousands of people claiming to be handicappers these days. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:01:50 How'd you get your nickname, Bookie Killer? The Bookie Killer, baby. That's what I did. They don't call me Bookie Killer for nothing. So it is what it is. We're grinding. New season. This should be one of the biggest sports betting years in history as far as volume.
Starting point is 00:02:04 I used to always promote the legal the biggest sports betting years, you know, in history as far as volume. Yeah. You know, I used to always, you know, promote the legalization of sports betting. Yeah. Here we are. Fast forward it. We got dozens of states legal now, you know, so. Yeah, it's looking good, man. Might be federally legal one day. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:02:18 I don't know if it, I mean, it should be. Like I said, I always said marijuana and sports betting. Yeah. People are going to do it anyway. Why not tax it, build some schools, make some roads, and stop charging me so much money? You know what I mean? Yeah, absolutely.
Starting point is 00:02:31 So what's the business model like? Because you run, like I want to learn more about the way you operate. What about like VIP sports? Yeah. As far as what's concerned, like with the clients? Do you sell your picks? Yeah. Obviously, I have different levels of service that we sell. You know, I sell my picks, you know, you got, uh, you know, depending on what people, you know, are betting per game,
Starting point is 00:02:53 whether you're looking to build somebody a bankroll, you got a big time player, you know, whatever it is, we adjust to, you know, what they're doing, but mainly we sell a weekly package. Okay. Cause I mean, you know, as well as I do one game, don't mean, I mean, you could pick a winner. My 12 year old could pick a winner. what i like to do is get a client with us for a week so they could actually see you know six seven games and you know how good we really are because anybody you know can be whoever they want over the phone but you know proof's in the pudding absolutely so do you know like your win percentages and stuff over right now on my personal plays i've been hitting 74.3% the entire year.
Starting point is 00:03:26 That's high. Absolutely. Well, also, you know, I don't play three games a day, brother. Right. That's the biggest misconception, you know, in my industry. Everybody out there,
Starting point is 00:03:37 they're betting a game in the morning. They're betting a game in the afternoon. They lose a game, they're betting another game. The guys are going into something that they're not even prepared to do. Yeah. The formula for success in sports betting, management and discipline yeah a game a day not every day and the same amount of money on every game right i mean what do you look like like let's say you
Starting point is 00:03:54 bet three games sean one at 300 one at 900 and one at 50 bucks you only win the game for 50 bucks you're yeah however if you bet five across the board and you had one win and two losses, you lose one unit, 500 bucks. Yeah, that makes sense. You keep the same size for each bet. Absolutely. You don't have to vary it. You got to treat it like a business. So many people get tied up in the excitement of it, betting with their hearts, going to the sports book, eating hot dogs and drinking f***ing beers. I treat it as a business. I'm looking to make money. I don't give a f*** who wins the game as long as they cover. So without win percentage, you got to be banned from every casino. No, absolutely not. That's what I used to, you know, I've been banned from the palms
Starting point is 00:04:34 when the Fertitta's owned it, when it was Cantor, but that was the only book I've ever been banned for. You know, a lot of people lie to you. A lot of guys in my industry are scam. Oh, I'm banned. I'm this, that, and the other. With people like, you know, the Circa and all these new big casinos opened up, bro, they'll let your nuts hang. You want to come in and bet $500,000 on an NFL game? Bring it in. I like that Circa sports book, man. It's impressive. It's dope. That's where I'm filming my new show, The Million Dollar Weekend. I got all access over there. So they're letting us do whatever we want over there. It's awesome. So what's the most you've won in a year, I guess? In a year of sports betting? Millions. You serious? Every year. In a year? Betting on
Starting point is 00:05:13 sports? You can make a full-time living off this. Oh my God. This is what made me a multi-millionaire. Well, you, yeah. You know what you're doing, but the people you're coaching. Oh, you were asking me what's the most a client has ever made? Well, Well, you'll see a lot of that in the million dollar weekend. I've made clients millions as well. Wow. Yeah. But I mean, am I making a guy that's betting a $5,000 a game, a million in a season? No. Right. I'm not going to lie to you. And anyone that says they do, they're lying too. Yeah. Cause you know, you can't play that many games, but you know, we, we average my personal plays. You know, I try to average about four units a week. Okay.
Starting point is 00:05:46 You know, I'm not trying to pick up 14, 15 units. I'm trying to pick up four units a week. So a guy that's, you know, betting $2,000 a game picks up between $8,000 and $10,000. And, you know, it's all about making a second income, brother. That adds up. Yeah, if you can do this on the side, make a few thousand, that could change some lives. Yes. And like, for instance, when I have a bad week, I mean, in my industry, you got these guys
Starting point is 00:06:07 advertising, I'm a hundred and oh, I'm 130, you know, you know, anybody that says they don't lose is a lie. Make sure you look at them in the face when they tell you that, that way, you know what they look like when they're lying to you. It's so easy to fake it too on Instagram. A hundred percent. So, you know, like with me on a bad week, it's a break even, maybe lose a little bit of juice, maybe one unit on a bad week, but three out of four weeks. I mean, I have bad days. I have a bad week, but I never have a bad month. Nice. Ever.
Starting point is 00:06:36 So you got really good sources. Well, yeah. And you know, well, I'm the source. You know, what I have is a good team of guys, as far as salesmen on the phone, because look, man, you could have the best winning percentage. You could have all the winners in the world. But if you don't have nobody to give them to, your games don't mean nothing. Right. So, you know, you have to have a good team behind you. And in this industry, it's very tough because you got to understand, you know, I don't want
Starting point is 00:07:00 to call out any names or, you know, disrespect your podcast. But, you know, these guys out there that claim to be world world-class, I love when a guy calls himself the GOAT. Last time I checked, Sean, somebody gives you the name the GOAT. Is that not true? No, it is. You can't self-proclaim that. No, they claim to be GOATs, but what they're like is WOATs, the worst of all time, or a COAT, corniest of all time. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:07:23 But we just grind hard you know i bust my ass to you know deal with you know dealing with the biggest sports bettors in the world you got i mean you've had these people on your show the rich of the rich you know when they win it's okay and when they lose it's you you know so they're they're in it for the moment you know these guys want to see money and they want to see results yeah if you don't if you don't show these guys results they'll leave you quick yeah how do you feel about parlays? Because I hear the odds on those are terrible. Well, one thing about me and I always preach, parlays are for suckers. It's just like everyone that's putting in a parlay is just looking for a come up. You only have $20 in your
Starting point is 00:07:59 pocket, so you're going to bet a four or five team. It's hard enough to win one game, let alone four or five. I mean, do people hit parlays? Yeah, all the time. I've hit six-figure parlays several times. But the only time that I suggest that you do a parlay is either towards the end of the week or at the end of the week if you've had a successful week. Let's say you're betting $1,000 a game for small guys.
Starting point is 00:08:22 You're up 5Gs for the week, right? You're going into Sunday. You could f**k fuck off 500 on a parlay some fun money yeah to take a shot of picking up four five six thousand yeah but yeah can you live off parlays not no but yeah there's some people that only do parlays i'm like what the hell yeah and those people claim to be millionaires and they live in a one-bedroom apartment with people don't think they could you could just look up their house these days. It's pretty easy. It's a facade.
Starting point is 00:08:47 And like I said, these guys claim to be this, that, and the other. They're living in rental houses. These guys are all these fake posts, using other people's money, acting like it's theirs. They're going to the point these days, Sean, where they're printing fake tickets, bro. Jeez. I mean, the game is so saturated, it's insane.
Starting point is 00:09:05 That's why I say these guys are skeptical. I understand why. Skepticism is a sign of intelligence. If they weren't skeptical, I probably think something was wrong with them. Yeah. I mean, the one thing you got on your side is a great track record. These people are popping up left and right, but they haven't been around for as long as you have. No, nobody's been around.
Starting point is 00:09:20 I got into this game, you know, 29 years ago. When I got into the game, there was big, you're probably too young. It was like. I wasn't even born yet. Yeah. Wayne Root, Jim Feist. These were the biggest guys in the game. And I basically, you know, took them down, you know, monopolized the game, took their
Starting point is 00:09:36 salesmen, got their leads and basically took over, you know, on some street. Wow. I used my street hustle to get, you know what I mean? So, because, you know, I was in telemarketing my entire life, and I worked for a company when I was 17 years old. It was one in five promotions, and the company actually got in trouble and got raided. I actually went to jail for it.
Starting point is 00:09:54 I did prison time for it at 18 years old, yeah, because I wouldn't snitch on the owner. Wow. How long? 18 months I did in the feds. What was that like? That was, yeah, it was cool. I mean, at the time i
Starting point is 00:10:05 mean i'm not gonna lie i mean i was pretty thugged out at 18 years old you know running the streets and stuff like that so it didn't bother me too much but if i had to go in that right now i'm too old for that sean i couldn't handle it damn i mean i could no doubt about it but i don't want to yeah that's a whole different life um you ever have any crazy win streaks that you remember yeah uh actually last year uh baseball 24 and 2 run damn 24 and 2 run yeah and that's another thing that you know we need to discuss you know any like guys in my industry like for instance let's say you were looking for a professional to get games from right anybody that gives you a minus 200 or a minus 300, do you think you need their f***ing help for a game like that?
Starting point is 00:10:50 It's an absolute joke and embarrassment. Yeah. Yeah. That's what Vegas Dave used to do all the time. Take this team money line, minus 350. You got to put up $350 to win 100. Yeah, it doesn't seem worth it. When I was on my run, it was all even money and underdog value.
Starting point is 00:11:07 See, in baseball, it isn't like football. You could hit 60% in MLB, but with the underdog value, it equates to 75%, 76%. Wow. Because when you're betting football, it's minus $1.10. You know what that means? For instance, Cowboys versus San Francisco, the line is minus 6%, minus $1.10. You know what that means? For instance, Cowboys versus San Francisco, the line is minus six, minus $1.10. So either way, that's how the bookie makes money. So no
Starting point is 00:11:32 matter what side you bet, it's $110 to win 10. I mean, to win 100. $110 to win 100. Got it. So they keep 10 bucks? Correct. I mean, if you win, obviously you don't. That's why I say you don't pay juice on winners. But yeah, 100%. I mean, if you win, obviously you don't. That's why I say you don't pay juice on winners. But yeah, 100%. What do you like sports-wise? What are your best sports to bet on? Without any shadow of a doubt, college football, college basketball, and my first period hockeys.
Starting point is 00:11:57 Man, I've broke world records. First period, not the whole game? First period totals. I went on a 27-4 run just last year in hockey alone. First period totals. Why are you so good at the first period? You got to follow these trends and these stats. There are certain teams that just, they score a lot.
Starting point is 00:12:14 And see, that's one of the reasons why a lot of people need a professional because people don't even know what, you know, first period over under is. First period total. Just like a lot of people in baseball, right? A lot of people have been betting baseball lately, and the team that they bet is winning the entire game, and they lose at the end on some **** that's been happening constantly because closers in baseball, for example, are nothing like they used to be.
Starting point is 00:12:39 Like, I know that you're a youngster, but you still might even – you were around when, you know, Mariano Rivera was – Heard of him. Well, for the Yankees. When the guy used to come in closing, you just know you won the game. He's not giving up. These guys here give up four or five runs that are supposed to be, you know, closers. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:55 So dealing with a guy like myself, to help a person like that, you bet the first five innings. You know, if you would have bet that same team for the first five innings, you would have won. But you had it for the entire game. Other team came back, and you got the first five innings. You know, if you would have bet that same team for the first five innings, you would have won. But you had it for the entire game. Other team came back and you got blasted. And do you feel like it's easier to bet on regular season games or playoffs? All year long.
Starting point is 00:13:14 Regular season games, you know, you can find a lot of information. You know, and what nobody, you know, people look at a game sheet, it only gives you so much information. You're not going to get pitcher-umpire matchup, pitcher-up you know does this umpire call strikes is it indoor outdoor does he favor the home team does he favor the away team i mean who runs baseball the umpires right that guy behind home plate yeah they have all the control right 100 so you know i mean not 100 but it's just stuff to give you the edge and i I just want to make something clear. There's no such thing as a fixed game.
Starting point is 00:13:51 These guys call, I know a guy that knows a guy that knows another guy. That guy don't know how to do shit. Tell him to come watch my Rolls Royce. That's what he can do. So you don't think any games are rigged? No. I mean, now that I didn't say. NFL is definitely for entertainment purposes only. Really?
Starting point is 00:14:06 Did you not see the game last night? Which game? Eagles? No. Who won? Eagles won by six, but the spread was six. And just the way they let him come down and score, the guy was in the – I mean, they're on the 25-yard line. The guy's in the end zone.
Starting point is 00:14:18 There's not another defender within 30 feet from him. Wow. Boom, touchdown, lands right on the number. So, yes, I will say, on record, a lot of these NFL games, certain NFL games, yeah, there's something to it. Wow. And I've been caught on the wrong side on those. I've also been on the right side. But, you know, certain teams you just got to look out for.
Starting point is 00:14:41 Yeah, whenever there's a lot of money involved, you never know. If you see the NFL breakdown, it says right on there for entertainment purposes only. Oh, wow. Now, what the f*** is the difference between that and WWE? It's for entertainment purposes only, isn't it? I can tell you this. They didn't
Starting point is 00:14:58 make any money off Kansas City winning the Super Bowl, so you can bet your life they're not winning again. Why didn't they make money? They've already won it. All their people already had their endorsements their teams were doing what they do they're looking for new money you know so so they like when new teams win 100 and if you've noticed over the years which is a crazy thing um i can name you at least 10 you know different situations where when a tragedy happens in that city yeah that team wins i can give you a tragedy happens in that city, that team wins. I can give you a tragedy in several different occasions, from Hurricane Katrina.
Starting point is 00:15:29 I mean, it just goes from 9-11 to hurricane. I mean, it just goes down the line. It'll blow your mind. So a lot of it is almost like storytelling then, painting a picture. It is. It's not all like that, but it's definitely certain games in the NFL manipulated. College, no. College, they're out there to grind, get it done, and make the NFL. Yeah. not all like that but it's definitely certain games in the nfl manipulated college no college
Starting point is 00:15:45 they're they're out there to grind get it done and do you know make the nfl yeah how do you deal with all these haters man because your industry gets the most i've ever seen dude my industry has the most hate in the world it's just absolutely disgusting everybody's putting each other down everybody's saying this everybody's saying that just, I don't pay any attention to it. One thing about me is I don't even run my social media. Oh yeah. Yeah. I have a, I have a, a team running for, for that exact reason, because you know, I, even though I'm older now, I am a kid from the streets and you know, you, you send me a DM that says your daughter or you and this, that, and the other, you know, I'm liable to look up your address and come to your
Starting point is 00:16:22 house, but I stay out i don't i'm not doing any of that i don't want to do that but that's the feeling that i take so that's why i'm actually not allowed to dm and and run my social media so you used to talk back to people when you ran absolutely tell your girl to eat it and then come wash my car you know what i mean and not to mention bro i mean it's it's part of the game i mean it's casualty is a war when you get a tv show on cnbc on prime time and you're doing your thing and it is what it is and plus if you ain't got no haters you ain't doing yeah for sure so you can hate all you want but uh at the end of the day you better congratulate because i'm getting it done hell yeah you ever bet on any weird sports like ping pong
Starting point is 00:17:00 tennis or anything or you keep it mainstream yeah i keep it mainstream like we've you know soccer believe it or not is biggest sport bet in the entire world and i haven't with with soccer either but you know college college basketball college football nfl hockey baseball you know nba yeah you know and there's some nba games that'll blow your mind too you know seen some weird stuff in nba for sure 100 the difference of nba is you know you got players a lot of stuff can happen in the nba yeah and that's a key thing like you know i was telling you off the air you never want to bet a game the day before especially in nba really domestic violence uh car wrecks uh there's so many things that can happen these guys are smoking other people's and you know a lot comes with that.
Starting point is 00:17:45 You bet day of. You've got a girlfriend that you love your entire life and you've got an NBA player at the bar with 50 million. Your girl's starstruck. He f***s your girl. This dude wants to c***. It's nothing to the NBA player. It's something to somebody else. I'm not saying that's what it is,
Starting point is 00:18:02 but you don't bet the game the day before because several different elements could happen the night the night before there's someone out there that probably bet on the grizzlies to win the title yeah a lot of people bet that's a lot of people you know bet futures i don't i don't really bet futures i'm looking for the present i'm not looking for a sports book to hold my money for a six months so yeah it just seems like you could put that money to you yeah call a guy like you, let him knock it out. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:18:26 Find a little something to turn it into something special. Yeah, because I know Vegas Dave does those long ones, but it's like your money's tied up for six, eight months. Right. And he's also a compulsive liar.
Starting point is 00:18:34 I'll give you an example. The one time that he hit for the two million or whatever it was on the baseball world series. The part that he didn't tell you is he had 50,000 on 11 other teams. He basically bet every
Starting point is 00:18:45 team on the board so he probably broke even maybe made a couple hundred thousand wow but once act like he's a kingpin yeah you won that game but what about the other 20 teams that you bet the same thing on yeah and lost i wonder if he's made money from betting like overall uh i mean i don't know he of course the dude was good at marketing. So of course that he's made money. I'd be lying to you. It's what's his retention rate. He's not holding anybody. Right. It's, it's just like hit a lick and bounce. You know, one thing about me is I'm looking for not only, you know, a client, but indeed a friend for life. I'm looking for a business relationship. Yeah. That's why, like when you sign up with my service, you're not getting
Starting point is 00:19:20 an email, you're not getting a DM, you're not getting a text. I'm working with you or one of my guys is working with you on a one-on-one basis. Oh, you're calling? Absolutely. We might sign you up digitally, but then we want to build a relationship with you. We don't want any mistakes. We want to talk to you. And that's what separates me from everybody in this business.
Starting point is 00:19:39 Yeah, everyone else just puts an email blast out with their pics or like a telegram group chat or whatever. Well, correct. Because you know why? They're salesmen. See, they're not salesmen. That's why this industry has got so big because of digital. If there was no such thing as digital, there'd be no handicappers.
Starting point is 00:19:54 Yeah. You know, like I was, you know, when I started the game, you know, there was only like four people, four rooms doing what I do. Right. You know, outbound, getting leads from sports books, you know, creating through advertising, doing a TV show, getting people to call. And then you, you, you grind out the leads. It takes a lot of sales talent to sell air brother. You got to get somebody to believe you. You got to paint a picture in their head, what you're doing. And you know, nobody wakes up looking to buy your product
Starting point is 00:20:18 ever. So with that said, you got to tell these people how this product is going to benefit you, how this product you need, what, what it's going to do for you, how it's going to help you. You know, I know you didn't wake up this morning looking to purchase this product, but, you know, like I said, let me explain to you why and what, you know, what you can accomplish for that. How much do you charge? We have different packages. You know, I do promotions as little as $99 for three days.
Starting point is 00:20:43 I mean, I'm blessed enough being the biggest in the business where I deal with the biggest sports bettors in the world. So me personally, you know, I deal with the guys betting 10, 50, a hundred quarter million dollars a game. And I have my guys in my room deal with, you know, 200, 500,000, $2,000 players. And what we do is we sell three day, you know, promotions andday you know promotions and you know the whole idea is to start them off with a week of service to build somebody a bankroll right i don't want none of your money not i want the bookies money so one thing about me you know if you sign up let's say you invested 250 you're a 500 player my goal is to pick you up you know 2,000 2,500 for
Starting point is 00:21:22 the week you know at a 500 per game you only need to pick up four units to make 2,000, $2,500 for the week. At a $500 per game, you only need to pick up four units to make $2,000. But let me ask you this, what investment in the world can you invest $250 and get back $2,000 in seven days? I can't think of any. There's none out there. So that's why it's a lucrative business. And when people treat this as a business, like I do, you can see some real good results. Is it possible for bookies to lose money? No. So they make money no matter what? 100%. Yeah. That's the job we should be looking into. Well, I mean, like I said, if everything went bad for me, I would probably go offshore and own a sports book. But to be honest with you, because of the legalization of sports betting, these Costa Rica and offshore books, they're falling off, bro. They're having to move to
Starting point is 00:22:04 video poker, roulette. Really? You know,'re having to move to video poker, roulette. Really? You know, like you see Drake on Instagram playing his roulette video. So that's what they're moving into. They paid him 100 mil, I heard. I'm sure they did. Something crazy. But, you know, I will tell you, that's how it is.
Starting point is 00:22:19 So what's your end goal? Do you want to own a sportsbook one day? Never. Never? Absolutely not. No. Why? No.
