Starting point is 00:00:00 On a Sunday, you've got all these different games going on at the same time. I tell you, I watch every single snap of every single game simultaneously because that would be physically impossible. You can have a pulse on those games. Understanding this, what are the coaches' tendencies when they're up? What are their tendencies when they're down? What do certain coaches do in this spot or that spot? Wherever you guys are watching this show, I would truly appreciate it if you follow or subscribe
Starting point is 00:00:28 it helps a lot with the algorithm it helps us get bigger and better guests and it helps us grow the team truly means a lot thank you guys for supporting and here's the episode all right guys king of odds fox taylor in the building how's it going man it's going great man thanks for having me absolutely we just met today but i'm glad we can make this work. Yeah. Yeah. Things are, uh, sometimes they happen on the fly like this. Yeah. Love the outfit too. Thank you, brother. I appreciate that. Yeah. How'd the, uh, how'd the Superbowl go for you? Um, Superbowl went great. Uh, I would have liked from a personal standpoint, I would have loved for the 49ers to win. I'm, I'm a diehard 49ers fan from when I was a kid and I first started watching the NFL, um, to now I never let that
Starting point is 00:01:04 fandom get in the way of making good picks, right, and the strategy behind winning money in terms of sports betting. Would have loved to have seen them won. I did something called middling the game. And so my pick yesterday was I liked the 49ers to win straight up. That didn't happen. However, I also had the Chiefs in what we call a seven-point teaser in the sports betting world.
Starting point is 00:01:23 So I middled the game hoping that it would fall somewhere in between not only the Niners winning but then Kansas City still being within the 9.5 points and then the under being 54. So that happened. Had a lot of interesting prop bets, if you're familiar, game props, player props, things like that. So yesterday, overall, it was a great Super Bowl. It was a great Super Bowl for my clients.
Starting point is 00:01:44 A lot of people won a lot of money, and that's the aim of the game, right? Nice. Did you see that guy that bet 1.1 and lost? I did. I did. Yeah, that can happen. Man. That can happen.
Starting point is 00:01:53 That is a lot of money. He didn't seem too shaken up by it. I was like, wow. Yeah, no. If he got the bankroll to support it and he was feeling it, I say go for it. Let it rip. Yeah, it's all percentage off your bankroll, right? So I guess it's relative to maybe what he's playing with.
Starting point is 00:02:06 Absolutely, yeah. What's the most you've bet on a game? The most I've ever bet on a game is 100K. Damn. You know, I get that question a lot, and I appreciate that question. And when I deal with avid sports bettors and even sports bettors that are just breaking into it, right, for the first time, and they ask me, well, Fox, what do you bet on the games? Right. And they're curious monetarily wise, what are you betting on the games? And I try to always tell people I could bet 100K today and bet two grand
Starting point is 00:02:33 tomorrow. And the reason is, is because how strong is the play? That's number one. Right. And you also don't want to get caught up in a world of where you're just betting to bet. Be selective about the games, which is, of course, what I am. So I try to be selective about the games. I probably, on average, bet $5,000 to $10,000 a day. So I try to tell people to have some perspective on it, right? If I bet $10,000 a day, right, sometimes more, sometimes less. You do that seven days a week. See, sports betting is not a novelty for me. This is what I do for a living, right? And helping people win in the sports betting world is what I do for a living. So when you think about it, we're talking about almost a half a million dollars a month in betting, right? That's total coin in.
Starting point is 00:03:12 Doesn't mean that you're losing that. Doesn't mean that you're winning that, but that's what you have in play on a weekly basis. Right. And were you sports betting all throughout your career? I know you were in the military for 20 years. Yes. Were you allowed to sports bet then? Yeah. You were allowed to sports bet. No different rules just because you were in the military. You know, gambling is totally fine as long as it's legal with where you're at and things like that. So it had always been a part of my life being in the military for 20 years. I was in the Marine Corps. I was always into sports since I was younger, kind of mentioned that before. And so for me, when I was in the military, you know, you're around a lot of guys, a lot of guys who are competitive, a lot of guys who are into sports.
Starting point is 00:03:46 So sports betting kind of creeps in there. Right. And so I used to really get a kick out of being able to help my fellow compadres win some money. And, you know, being kind of the go to, if you would, in those military circles where there was guys who like to sports bet. And that was really fun. Yes. You've always had a slight edge. Right. What do you think gave you that ability? Because most people lose money sports betting, right? Yeah. You know what? There's two things I think that make a successful sports better. And I'm not going to give you the stereotypical answers here, right? A lot of people say things like bankroll management. Well, I mean, that should be obvious, right? And they say things like discipline. That also should be obvious, right? But there's two things I think that give me an edge personally. Number one is I watch all the games. Now, what I mean by watch all the games is on a Sunday, you've got all these different
Starting point is 00:04:34 games going on at the same time. And I'd be a fool to sit here and tell you I watch every single snap of every single game simultaneously because that would be physically impossible. But what is possible is watching enough football, whether it's college or NFL and any other sport that I handicap to where you can have a pulse on those games. Understanding this, what are the coach's tendencies, right? What are the coach's tendencies when they're up? What are their tendencies when they're down?
Starting point is 00:05:00 Hey, Prime members, are you tired of ads interfering with your favorite podcasts? Good news.

What do certain coaches do in this spot or that spot? Right. Like if they're trailing in a game or if they're really up in a game and that really comes into play in college football more.
Starting point is 00:05:44 So I think having a pulse on the games, especially if you're going to call yourself a sports handicapper, like, you know, like what I consider myself to be or sports consultant, that's a fancier word for it. Right. But at the end of the day, I think having a pulse on the games because you're really engaged really gives you an edge. You know, that's that's that goes all the way back to my early days when I was much, much younger. Right. Is because if you're not in tune with the games, you that means you don't have the eye test. Right. Because you've got to be able to see these these quarterbacks, these other skilled position players, defenses, coaches, et cetera. You've got to see what they're doing with your own two eyes and really have a pulse and stay engaged. And that's with all the sports, doesn't matter which sport it is, because you're predicting things, right? You're in a predictive business. And so it can't just be algorithms. It can't just
Starting point is 00:06:23 be these quote unquote systems. I think you've really got to be in tune with it. Right. And so having that experience of many years of not only watching, but I said that there's two things, right? The second thing is, do you understand, do you truly understand the lines? And if I may give you a scenario, I would say this, for instance, yesterday, even with overtime in the Superbowl between the 49ers and the Chiefs, the total on the game, meaning how many points each team would score for a combined total, was 47.5. That line, that total, never moved for the two weeks since it came out. Wow. Right?
Starting point is 00:07:03 So for two weeks, it never ticked, not even up a half point from 47.5 to 48 or down to an even 47. Guess what the score of the game was? 47. So as a sharp in this game, knowing when you see a line that doesn't move, that is a really, really key indicator. It just never moved. Now that was a total. On the spread itself, it did have a little bit of movement, which is natural because you're going to get those $1 million bets coming in. You're going to get a lot of action throughout those two weeks when they determine who's going to play in the big game like the Super Bowl. And you're going to get it moving around a point, half a point, you know, daily. Like yesterday, I was at Circa. That's where I stay when I come into Las Vegas. And you could see that at one point in time, it fluctuated.
Starting point is 00:07:39 The 49ers were favored by two. Then it was one and a half. Then it was two. Oh, they were favored to win? Yes. The 49ers were, in fact, favored to win, right? Everyone, then it was two. Oh, they were favored to win? Yes, the 49ers were, in fact, favored to win, right? Everyone I asked to predict it said the Chiefs were going to win. Right. And I think a lot of people, your average Joe amateur better like the Chiefs for obvious reasons. Patrick Mahomes, Andy Reid, Travis Kelsey, right?
Starting point is 00:07:58 And that was a great prediction, right? If you had the Chiefs just to win straight up yesterday, it was a great prediction. They were technically the underdog. And I think a lot of people could look at that game just because there's so much hype around the Chiefs and the organization and those characters that I just mentioned. But being able to have that experience to read lines. And I mean, that's just one example. We could talk about a thousand. But having the experience of being able to see the lines when they come out, when Vegas is saying, OK, this is the over-under.
Starting point is 00:08:21 This is the spread on these games. And being able to keep up with the fluctuation of those lines and then also lines have meaning. So if you see like a line where a team is favored by three and it doesn't move all week long, specifically three or higher, there's a good indication that that team is going to cover. But this line never moved any more than either one and a half all the way to two and a half to depend on which casino, which sports book. And so those are indicators, but that's just one example.
Starting point is 00:08:47 Yeah. There's a lot of stuff on social media. I'm sure you've seen this lately about the NFL games being predetermined and the winners are picked in advance. What do you think about that? That's a fabulous question. I don't think that the NFL is rigged because that's what we're really getting at, right? Like is the NFL predetermined of what's going to happen? I don't think that's the case. And I'll tell you why. I think it's because that would just take way too many people, right? Because you've got the guys on the field, the referees, the coaches, the TV people, the NFL organization as a whole. That's just too many hands in the pot, I think, to orchestrate the combat ballet that is, combat ballet, excuse me, that is the NFL and that is football. Don't you think that's a lot
Starting point is 00:09:30 of hands in the mix? You know, because how can you say, okay, this guy's going to fumble on this play and this ref's going to call this. That would be extremely difficult. But I will tell you this, and I really mean this. Still to this day, you better absolutely believe that there are sports out there that are being tampered with so the outcomes of those games are essentially being predetermined, right? Maybe not predetermined, but again, we'll use the word I just used, was tampered with, right? And it's way easier to do it in college football, college basketball. What makes me say that? Well, look at all the players. There's 200 college teams, right? And it's way easier to do it in college football, college basketball. What makes me say that? Well, look at all the players. There's 200 college teams, right? Whether it's
Starting point is 00:10:09 football or basketball, what have you. And I don't know, like, for instance, have you ever seen the Netflix documentary, Bad Sport? If you haven't, go check it out. There was a scandal years ago at Arizona State, for instance, with college basketball. And that's a big team. Right, exactly. They're a Division I team. Everybody knows and has heard of Arizona State. There was a scandal years ago in the early 90s, and it's actually kind of cool. We're in Vegas. We're talking about Vegas stuff here. There was a gentleman who was able to get to a player, and that player was shaving points in the games, whether they were supposed to cover or not cover or the total to go over or under, he had his grips into a player. And this is in the mid-90s, okay? So that player
Starting point is 00:10:51 was affecting the games, which was affecting the lines and affecting people's pocketbooks, right? A few years ago, something as of more recent, just a few years ago, back at Auburn, there was a scandal. And if you Google this and you go back and look, college basketball, this is before Bruce Pearl took over as the head coach at Auburn basketball. Just years ago, there was an article in Sports Illustrated about point shaving with the Auburn basketball team. So it's there, maybe not in the NFL, but it's certainly still out there and prevalent in sports.
Starting point is 00:11:21 And these games can be tampered with at times. Yeah, that is interesting. Now you see a lot of these sports bettors post their win percentage on Instagram, and it seems pretty absurd. What importance do you place on win percentage yourself? I mean, win percentage is important, and I'm glad you brought this up. Win percentage is, of course, important because if someone's going to spend their hard-earned money with you to predict the outcomes of games and to give them some sort of edge so they can win vice lose then you need to be sharp you need to have a good winning percentage but all these guys that are out there acting like they win every single game or when i
Starting point is 00:11:55 hear crazy things like to be honest with you even when i hear someone say oh i'm 10 and 0 in my last um nfl picks or i'm i'm 12 and 0 in my lastB picks. Some of those are real. It can happen. I've went 35-5 before. Just this last December, from December 1st all the way until the end of December, I went 35-5. Wow. Yes. So that's high. If we do the math on that, that's probably in the high, mid-80 winning percentage for the month, right? But when you hear some of these guys who are more, I think, influencer-based, and they are sharps within the sports betting field, I think they say things because those get a lot of clicks. They get a lot of views. They gain a lot of interest, but it's very difficult. I like when I see my fellow competitors and they're
Starting point is 00:12:38 realistic. That garners my respect, but it gets a little out of control with these guys saying they're 100% or that they win every game. It's just not realistic. I've seen like 143 and 0. I've seen like crazy stuff. And I think you gain a lot more respect from potential bettors and potential clients and players if you're just honest. Yeah. Have you always had winning years or has it been kind of roller coaster? At the end of each year, I've always came out profitable. Wow. But that goes back to those tenants that we talked about, about the discipline, about the money management, being smart, being strategic. Now, when I first got into sports betting years and years ago, you learn some tough lessons, right? Like you learn some of these things that we just
Starting point is 00:13:20 talked about. You don't have those when you first get into sports betting, when you're 21 years old, let's say, right? You have to learn some of those lessons the hard way. Like, you know, should you bet parlays? You know, I'm not a big parlay guy. Do I give them out occasionally? Yes. When I think I have something strong that warrants it. But, you know, you can't have a 10 game parlay every day and think that that's going to hit. It's not realistic, right? And so I think that, you know, when I was younger and I was getting into sports betting, you learn valuable lessons and those lessons teach you through experience of how to be a winner in the long run. Absolutely. When it comes to gambling in Vegas outside of sports betting, is that something you partake in? Oh yeah, absolutely. I mean, if I come to Vegas,
Starting point is 00:14:00 I'm, you know, like I stay at Circa a lot. I've got a host over there and a host over there Circa's a great place because not only can you sports bet there, I think of it as the mecca of a sports betting, but it's a beautiful casino, I like to partake my favorite card game is Baccarat Best odds It has the best odds, it's a fun game, it's a slower game, believe it or not, I play Baccarat a lot of times
Starting point is 00:14:20 just to relax and chill out but you have to, of course think to yourself, okay, here's my bankroll, right? Here's what I want to play or gamble with as a whole. And not letting the things overlap between what's your sports betting bankroll and what's your bankroll to just mess around the casino and have fun. You know, I like to take a couple of grand, play Baccarat. It's relaxing. It's a slow game. You meet cool people when you play the game. There's just a certain class about Baccarat that I've always liked and been attracted to,
Starting point is 00:14:49 and it's relaxing. You can't get carried away in those table games because they are very difficult. I don't claim to be a professional blackjack player or professional Baccarat player, but those games are fun, and I think that's where you got to keep it at. Sports betting is my life, and that's business. Being able to transition out of the military is usually a very hard process. Do you think having the sports betting skills helped you transition easier? It did because I think that when you're passionate about something and you're skilled in something and you mesh those two things together, it certainly makes it easier.
Starting point is 00:15:21 I think, and I feel like I can say this as a veteran, a lot of veterans do struggle with that. What you just mentioned is that the difference between being in the military, being active duty, transitioning into the regular workforce, if you will. And my advice to any veteran is, and I think this is so important, do what you love no matter what it is. Forget about the money. Don't think, I got to be a millionaire. I have to compete with this person or that person on social media or anything. Just go do what you love. Because if you do what you love, I think everything will certainly fall into place. And if you are, in fact, chasing the dollar or the money, I think that will come eventually, right? Whether you're doing podcasting, whether you're
Starting point is 00:16:02 in real estate, any business, just do what you love. Do what you're passionate about because then when you're working, it doesn't really feel so much like work. That is a very interesting mindset to have as a sports better because when I think of sports betters, I think of they're doing it mainly for the money. But you're kind of flip-flop, right? Yeah. Well, I mean, I'm doing it for the money because, of course, the money affords you to have a nice lifestyle, a quality of life, et cetera, right? And so the money is a huge part of it. But at the same time, doing something you love, being in the realm of sports, if you
Starting point is 00:16:35 will, being close to the game all the time is fun. And it's what I've always loved. I mean, when I was in high school, I played four different sports, right? And so, and then even in the military, it's almost like college. You have a lot of intramural sports. There's a lot of competition because you've got a lot of guys
Starting point is 00:16:51 who maybe they had an injury or something. So they went to the military vice going to college or something like that. And so you're surrounded just by constant competition. And again, when you do something that you love and that's the first part, that's the priority, I think that the money comes. But of course, the money's sweet,
Starting point is 00:17:09 especially when you're winning. Can't deny that. What's your favorite sport to bet on? My favorite, and we just talked about this in a different podcast, I love college football. I bet everything. I can handicap anything, even down to NASCAR, right? Which is probably one of the funnest things to
Starting point is 00:17:25 bet. NASCAR? Yeah, because the odds are so great. And the Daytona 500, for instance, is coming up next Sunday. If you go and you look at the odds for a NASCAR race, if you look at the odds for golf, you will get astronomically positive odds on even the best. So even if Tiger Woods is playing in the Masters, even three or four years ago when he won, or about five years ago now when he won on his comeback, he was 40-1 that year. Did you bet on that? I did not. I did not have Tiger in the Masters four, five, six years ago when he won. That was crazy when he won that.
Starting point is 00:17:54 But right. And that was incredible. And to get Tiger Woods at 40-1. Yeah. So you look at other sports like tennis and golf that had, not so much tennis, but like. Tennis is just a big three, I feel like. Yeah, it is. It is. It is is you're right um especially whether it's women's or men's you've you've got a couple of
Starting point is 00:18:09 different players and those guys their odds are not like like what we're talking about here now but like you know if you look at the daytona 500 for next week whether you like or know anything about nascar but you like sports betting right go look at the odds if you if the only thing you know is kyle, because he's a very notorious and famous driver, he's still 15, 16 to one. So if you like those odds, and if you, even if you just do a sprinkle on that, you can make money. So again, you know, it's, it's fun because when you can find those different sports that you like to bet and that really have the great pat, the payout, but your question was, what was your favorite? I love college football.
Starting point is 00:18:44 Why do I like college football? Because those kids are playing for something so meaningful, right? They're playing for, of course, draft status and future money that comes along with that and the accolades and the Heisman. But college football just has such a big nostalgic, it's so nostalgic and it's got so much meaning behind it right and there's all those great rivalries Auburn versus Alabama Notre Dame versus you know Michigan Michigan Michigan Ohio State excuse me and and Florida Florida State right there's all these great rivalries in football and there's you go to a college football game if like if you go to the if you go to the Michigan Stadium they call it the big house there's over a hundred thousand kids and fans in these games whereas in an NFL game they only sit about maybe 68,000 or 70,000.
Starting point is 00:19:29 Wow. So college football is bigger than football? When it comes to how big they build the stadiums, that answer is yes. Isn't that incredible? I didn't know that. Because usually it's the opposite, right? The pros get the most stadiums. Like Raymond James Stadium in Tampa. Raymond James Stadium, I think, I want to say it sits, I want to say 68 or 70,000. But if you go to the big house in Michigan, they seat over 100,000. So does Bryant-Denny Stadium, which is where Alabama plays in Tuscaloosa. Over 100,000 people can attend a game. That being said, I like watching football more on TV than in person.
Starting point is 00:20:00 How do you feel about that? You and I are on the same page. You want to know why? You would say this if the question was posed to you, is I could see where the first down is. I can hear all the different statistics that are happening within the game. I'm hearing the announcers. And the way that NBC, CBS, ESPN, all these companies and all these broadcast folks, the way that they do the games is such high quality now. Right.
Starting point is 00:20:24 That the in-home experience is unbelievable. Now, if you've been to a, let's say a professional football game as of recent, like the last time I went to a game, I had no service. I can't look up what's going on in terms of player props, game props. I mean, it's just wherever my seat is, can I keep track enough of what's going on? You almost need a paper and pencil. Because, again, the service is bad. But when you're at home, you've got your food. You've got your drinks. You've got your loved ones.
Starting point is 00:20:50 You've got the bathroom five feet away or whatever the case may be. The in-home experience, I think, is phenomenal. It's better, especially at Circa, too. I will say if you have a suite, that is pretty dope. But if you're in just a regular seat, it's just uncomfortable. You're cramped. I mean, I'm tall. You're pretty tall, too. So, yeah, I'd much rather be at home.
Starting point is 00:21:07 Yeah. And you mentioned like almost like a watch party, you know, like Circa had a watch party yesterday and a lot of the hotels and casinos did of course. And those are fun. Those are also very fun. I mean, you, you've got music, you've got food, you've got all kinds of camaraderie and people watching the games and the rooting for the stuff. And again, you can see everything. So picture perfect. Whereas when you're at a game and you're looking for, Hey, is it, is it third and five? Is it first intent? What is it? Right. You're trying to figure it out because it's just not as easy as what it presents itself at home. Absolutely. Do you do any live bets ever? I like to live bet when it makes sense. And you've got to, you've got to really
Starting point is 00:21:41 be disciplined in live betting because the casinos know based off of how the game is being, you know, where the game lies, like meaning score and how much time's left. They know exactly what those numbers are to entice you to bet. Like you should take the over or the under, right. Or taking a certain spread. They will, they, they, they're so good at what they do in creating the lines, especially the live lines, that they know the human tendency might be to take an over. So you see a lot of points being scored as a consumer of the game and as a better of the game, right? So you're like, oh, I'm going to live bet. I know they're going to have this over. But you're not taking into account all the other things that are going to happen into the game where the scoring is going to slow down.
Starting point is 00:22:20 Because especially like in college football, a first half, they could score literally 48 points. You know. Oklahoma's playing TCU in the Big 12. They don't play a lot of defense. But then there's some halftime adjustments. They come out, and you were live betting something, but now it's halftime or whatever has happened, and now scoring slows down. So that live bet that you thought was a for sure thing, it wasn't. And that's where that experience and understanding the lines that I mentioned to you earlier, that's where that really comes into play for not only making money, but helping others make money as well. I love that because it's so easy to get emotional about the live bets if you're watching the game, but you're super disciplined. It sounds like you could separate the two. Well said. And a lot of people, they live bet the Chiefs yesterday because the Chiefs were down at
Starting point is 00:23:03 halftime. They came out with their hair on fire in the second half, and you could still get them at plus money. Oh, wow. Originally, when the second half started, as they started to make that run and Patrick Mahomes started to take the game over, all the way up until the last minute, you were still able to get very favorable odds. Interesting. Yeah, that was a slow first half. I actually stopped watching because it was so slow. It was.
Starting point is 00:23:22 It was 10-3, and apparently the second half was 6, so I missed out. I had the under in the game, which was one of the things that we were talking about earlier. So I liked that it was a little slow, a little boring in the beginning, because monetarily-wise, sports betting-wise, I wanted to make sure that under hit, which I did. You just hit that 0.5 away, right? Yeah, and that was close. And that's what's so great about sports betting. Yeah. Yeah. Do you ever get like super worried about the bets? Oh gosh, yesterday my, my heart was, or my, excuse me, my stomach was in knots because I've got people that are relying on me to win. I've got my own money in play. And yesterday being the Superbowl, there's all these different exotic bets. I had a really cool bet yesterday. I wouldn't necessarily
Starting point is 00:24:03 recommend this to people. Um, but it was something I caught, you know, there are exotic bets. I had a really cool bet yesterday. I wouldn't necessarily recommend this to people, but it was something I caught. There are exotic bets out there, like exotic prop bets. So yesterday I had a really cool prop bet. And just from a strategic standpoint, I really liked this. When I did all the math and I looked at the percentages, you could bet on, would the first touchdown score of the game be wearing the jersey number 19 and a half or higher so basically 20 so i told myself i said who's going to score the first touchdown this game what's more likely to happen san francisco had the more potent offense right so i look at san francisco then i say well who's most likely right percentage wise meaning amounts of handling the ball and getting touches and things so you start looking at christian mccaffrey you start at Kyle Juszczyk, their fullback. He doesn't get a lot of touches, but if they're down the red zone
Starting point is 00:24:50 and it's close, it's going to probably go to a running back. So I'm looking at McCaffrey. He's number 23. I'm looking at Juszczyk. He's 44. The tight end for the 49ers, George Kittle, not only is he a great player, but because the defenses are accounting for guys like Brandon Ayuk and Debo Samuel, Kittle ends up being open in the red zone quite a bit. So the odds of the number 20 scoring a touchdown or higher was great. Brilliant. So I had several thousand dollars on this bet yesterday and my stomach was in knots because they were going back and forth until a touchdown actually got scored for quite some time. And that was one of those fun ones, right? So do I recommend that to a lot of people? Not necessarily, unless they've got the bankroll to support those kind of crazy exotic bets, but it was fun. My stomach was in knots the whole time about it. It was a winner for me. And I
Starting point is 00:25:39 really, of course, enjoyed that. But those are, again, fun. It was good. Yeah. So that Chiefs fumble in the first quarter i think they were close they were at the five yard line right yeah and you must have been freaking out yes good point yeah i was because at that point i'm thinking that the chiefs might you know pacheco might run it in from the chiefs he's number 11 yeah and so and and again those just make the game more fun when you're watching them um the big play you know the the really big play yesterday of course was are you on the chiefs are you on the 49ers are you on the under or the over that's what most people wanted but it's fun to throw in those prop bets absolutely fox has been fun getting to know you man anything you want to
Starting point is 00:26:12 close off with our promote um yeah you know if anybody's out there and you know you're looking to win money you're looking to gain an edge um there's a lot of people out there that talk about systems and about algorithms you know i'm a guy where i study the games i watch the games um.
