    NCAA Betting Scandal • Prediction Market Truth • Parlay Myths
    2026/05/01
    This episode covers a wide range of topics across betting, prediction markets, and probabilistic thinking. We start with the Brendan Sorsby situation after reports surfaced about a major gambling-related issue involving the Texas Tech QB, including over 10,000 bets placed dating back to 2022. The conversation focuses on what this means for gambling integrity in college sports and the broader responsibility discussion that comes with it. From there, the panel reacts to Isaac Rose-Berman’s recent article on prediction markets and the way they are positioned as an alternative to traditional sportsbooks. The discussion explores whether that framing is accurate, how these platforms actually generate profit, and what bettors often misunderstand about their structure. The group also breaks down a viral take from Plus EV Analytics on parlay thinking and how human intuition struggles with probability when outcomes are layered together. Host Jacob Gramegna is joined throughout the episode by Joey Knish, Isaac Rose-Berman, and Chris Dierkes (Flupnolide), a trader at Novig, with all four contributors involved in the full discussion across gambling, markets, and bettor psychology. 📅 New episodes of Circle Back every Monday at 1pm ET and Friday at 8am ET.

  • How a U.S. Soldier Turned Classified Info Into $400K

    How a U.S. Soldier Turned Classified Info Into $400K
    2026/04/27
    A U.S. soldier is now at the center of a massive betting controversy after allegedly using classified information tied to a secret mission to make over $400,000 on Polymarket. The situation has sparked a major debate around insider trading, prediction markets, and where the line is drawn between public information and national security. Things escalated further when Donald Trump weighed in on the case, comparing it to legendary sports betting controversies and suggesting it may not be as clear-cut as it seems. The crew also breaks down Warren Buffett’s latest comments on legalized gambling, where he labeled the industry a “tax on the wealthy,” adding fuel to an already heated discussion about the long-term impact of sports betting expansion. On top of that, the episode covers Caesars Sportsbook’s partnership with the Westgate SuperBook and what it could mean for the broader sports betting market. With bettors already reacting strongly to the consolidation of odds and independent pricing, the crew dives into whether this move signals a larger industry shift or just another step in the inevitable tightening of the space. Hosted by Jacob Gramegna, this episode of Circle Back on Circles Off features Rob Pizzola, Kirk Evans, and Geoff Fienberg as they react, debate, and break down the biggest stories in sports betting and prediction markets. 📅 New episodes of Circle Back every Monday at 1pm ET and Friday at 8am ET.

  • Bet Protection Debate • Unit Shaming • Early Payout Gone Wrong?

    Bet Protection Debate • Unit Shaming • Early Payout Gone Wrong?
    2026/04/20
    FanDuel’s new BetProtect Plus feature is getting a lot of attention — but is it actually worth it? We break down how the 3% premium works, why it might seem appealing to casual bettors, and the major flaws that make it a losing play long term. From guaranteed negative EV scenarios to why using it on unders makes no sense, we explain what bettors are missing and why this “protection” could be costing you more than you think. Plus, we discuss the marketing angle behind the rollout and why this might be a win for sportsbooks, even if it’s a loss for bettors. We also get into the ongoing debate around unit shaming after a bettor was criticized for the size of their wager, and whether that kind of reaction is justified. Then, we break down the early payout controversy after Paddy Power paid out Arsenal to win the Premier League — only for the title race to flip after a major result. Was it a smart marketing move or a costly mistake? All that and plenty more from across the sports betting world on this episode of Circle Back, hosted by Jacob Gramegna with Rob Pizzola, Kirk Evans, and Geoff Fienberg. 📅 New episodes of Circle Back every Monday at 1pm ET and Friday at 8am ET.

    This Twitter Bookie Scam Is Even Bigger Than We Thought
    2026/04/17
    A major Twitter Bookie Scam is unfolding as Leviathan Locks gets exposed, but the story doesn’t stop there. What started as accusations quickly spirals into a much bigger situation involving Boomers Bets, who had been publicly vouching for Leviathan Locks while allegedly paying back victims behind the scenes. As more information comes out, the connection between the two raises serious questions about how deep this operation went and how many bettors were affected. Plus, we break down Chris Dierkes’ recent article on betting philosophy, including his stance on risk tolerance and whether bettors should be more aggressive, and call out some of the worst sports betting content currently coming from major media outlets.
