Arkansas reminds me of those 90’s UNLV teams. Crazy athletic.

Lmao. SMU played the selection committee like crazy. That press release saying Bj Edwards will be back for the tourney is why they got in — and now he’s not playing lol

It's official! Gambly and Unabated are one. Excited to build alongside some of the best in the business. Most importantly - we are hiring, especially AI-first engineers. Come join the rocketship. Thanks @jeffedelstein for the article. Look for a @BettingStartups pod dropping soon.

@TheNickRudman I do think the every other year cadence is good. Probably loses its luster if it was every year. Agree with it needing to stay in Miami.

I don’t know if there’s ever been a higher energy, better atmosphere, baseball game than last night. Totally unique, it’s gotta be in Miami every year. Was so so fun.

@dan_back We used to go annually when my girls were 3-10…so expensive, so incredible. Once they were a bit older and past wanting to see the princesses and just wanted to chill at the pool or beach we switched to other lines…but we get jelly every time we hear a Disney ship leaving port

Disney Cruise was by far the best cruise my family ever did (Especially with kids 3-10 age range).....but this guy had to borrow from the 401K to go on as many as they implied in ad. Crazy expensive.

The culture shift is real, this Disney cruise ship ad aimed at dads is fantastic:

@RisBrian Agree with that take.

@dan_back IMO going on a Royal Caribbean ship is the way if you have a teen or older on the vacation… if you have a little kid… you can’t beat the Princess and Superhero options on a Disney cruise!

Stakes are so much higher for States with prediction markets than they ever were in the DFS lawsuit days. Feels like SCOTUS opining on this case is a forgone conclusion. How long before that happens is anyone’s guess.

Here's the press release on Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes filing criminal charges against Kalshi over alleged illegal gambling operations and election-related wagering. "No company gets to decide for itself which laws to follow," Mayes says.

There's probably 20+ places to bet in Texas... Fliff, Rebet, PrizePicks, Underdog, Dabble, DraftKings Pick 6, Novig, ProphetX, Kalshi, Polymarket, Ownersbox No FanDuel does NOT mean no sports betting...

Matt Clinnard@mclinnard

@Amonahan Best way to play in Texas? Drive to another state?

This….betting an entire NFL season as break even is pretty good bang for your buck entertainment….which honestly is what most people should look at sports betting as. Story is boring if that’s the outcome, Admittedly….that discipline is hard for most but he did a decent enough job of that until the last game of the year. Hard to believe he YOLO’s at that point if an article wasn’t being written about the experience,

English

Jim Barnes@JimBarnesLV·6d

@DustinGouker I agree. I also think knowing that he was writing a story obviously affected his betting. He basically followed Nate Silver's modest advice and was breaking even, then he started upping his unit size and firing, then went all-in on the Super Bowl because it's a better story

I have read lots of hot takes about the Atlantic story, which has been labeled the best and worst thing ever written. Truth is somewhere in the middle. My observation: Giving someone free money to gamble isn’t going to approximate what they will do with their own money.

@BryceMauro @JustinMacmahan It was so cool,,,,,and sadly it was ruined by a flukey game going OT that caused all sorts of logistical problems at the end. The second one had all those deposit issues too where they basically free rolled everyone. Brilliant idea just rough execution,

DraftKings did this for the sports betting national championship. There were other nuances but you basically got a weekend to run up 5k. Would be great content for degenerates instead of dfs nerds - not that the two are exclusive. Still my favorite live final event.

Last year, The Atlantic gave me $10K to gamble with. What started as a journalistic gimmick turned into something more... unnerving. My cover story on the online betting boom warping sports, culture, politics, and the psyches of millions of young men: theatlantic.com/magazine/2026/…

Bam Adebayo broke math. His 83-point game was 8.5 standard deviations above his career average (or ~1 in 53 quadrillion) Based on career avgs, its like: Patrick Mahomes passing for 915 yards Justin Verlander throwing 214 pitches in a start Wilt Chamberlain grabbing 79 rebounds
