Transcript
- 0:17Hello, and welcome to episode 115 of the All Systems Go sports
- 0:23Betting podcast powered by Rhythm.
- 0:26I'm your host, Josh Applebaum. What's going on, everyone?
- 0:34Happy Monday, a new week begins. First week of the NFL almost
- 0:38fully under our belt. We do have a big Monday Night
- 0:41Football game here tonight to talk about, which I do have a
- 0:43best bet for you on the side. Have a little bit of information
- 0:47on a total. And I do a prop bet for you.
- 0:49Thanks hopefully to our friends at Rhythm here for this one with
- 0:52a great edge on a running back to go over his receiving yards.
- 0:55And then I do have a baseball swap for you, one Major League
- 0:58Baseball play. So a three pack overall that
- 1:00we'll talk about on a big Monday after a big weekend.
- 1:03Now looking back to the weekend, guys, I kind of diet, you know,
- 1:06cut it up into two pieces. One was Saturday.
- 1:09Saturday was a good day. Saturday had a great UFC bet
- 1:12winner with Sean Brady coming through for the team.
- 1:15Remember the incredible, what was it?
- 1:1719% bet, 70% money, reverse line move, golf clap Sean Brady now
- 1:23our 12th straight UFC win. You love to see it.
- 1:26Also had some good hits. Couldn't get Michigan, they
- 1:28really are pathetic in that game against Texas.
- 1:31But some big hits with Iowa State in the points, winning
- 1:34outright. Tulane getting some points.
- 1:36Illinois was a late addition for me.
- 1:38Maybe I had Pittsburgh from earlier in the week.
- 1:39So overall pretty good Saturday, but that did not prepare me for
- 1:43a terrible NFL Sunday. No way to sugarcoat it, guys.
- 1:46Absolutely brutal. Look at the plays that I had
- 1:49written down one in five. Disgusting.
- 1:51Only winner there was the Colts. Colts for that incredible
- 1:54contrarian play. Inflated line, getting the plus
- 1:573. Ended up losing by two.
- 1:58But really, a lot of these bets, I don't really regret.
- 2:01They just didn't come through for us.
- 2:02And I don't want to overreact too much to a bad opening
- 2:04weekend. Like, for example, Carolina
- 2:06Panthers took the Carolina Panthers +4.
- 2:09Carolina Panthers ended up closing at 3 1/2.
- 2:11We beat the closing line. They just completely got curb
- 2:14stomped and destroyed and lost by 37 Tennessee Titans.
- 2:19Titans in the points getting 4 sharp line freezer, some reverse
- 2:22line movement. Titans are up 17 to nothing.
- 2:25They blow it loose 24 to 17. Failed to cover the number.
- 2:29The Raiders getting a three juiced up.
- 2:31Even got down close to 2 1/2 at some shops.
- 2:34They end up losing by 12. It gets worse with the
- 2:37commanders. Commanders had a good sharp line
- 2:39freeze and some reverse line movement.
- 2:41They end up losing by 17. The one that really annoyed me
- 2:44though was the Cleveland Browns, because the Browns were a
- 2:46blueprint play for us. Sharp reverse line move fade.
- 2:49The trendy dog public was all over Dallas, yet the line went
- 2:53to Cleveland. Then you start watching that
- 2:55game. I was excited to hear Tom Brady
- 2:56for the first time. Pretty vanilla.
- 2:58I wasn't too impressed with Brady in general, but Deshaun
- 3:01Watson was absolutely terrible. Couldn't do anything
- 3:03offensively, couldn't stop Dallas.
- 3:05They get rolled 33 to 17. So again, these are bets that
- 3:09we're matching. Our systems just did not come
- 3:12through. So I don't want to overreact too
- 3:13much and throw away the, you know, the baby in the bathwater
- 3:16here. But it's a long season and those
- 3:19are. And again, after a great start
- 3:20to the year, we're three and on opening night had a win with a
- 3:23prop bet there, one in one in the Brazil game.
- 3:26Felt like, hey, let's let's get this thing rolling.
- 3:29Little bit of a set back here. But it's a long year.
- 3:31We're going to stick with it. We're going to continue to grind
- 3:33and hopefully today we'll turn it around with a big Monday
- 3:35Night Football opportunity. So I also want to mention real
- 3:39quick the live stream. We were able to do the live
- 3:41stream yesterday from 11:00 AM Eastern Time to 12.
- 3:43Myself and James Santor, the Rhythm Sunday sweats.
- 3:46Thank you all for tuning in and listening.
- 3:48I wish the bets performed a little, a little bit better, but
- 3:51we had over 1000 people watching the live stream on Twitter.
- 3:53So thank you for tuning in and James and I and the whole crew
- 3:56at Rhythm Very, very excited, very happy about the potential
- 4:00of doing this every Sunday. So that's our goal every Sunday,
- 4:0311:00 AM to noon. You can TuneIn get some prop
- 4:05bets, some rhythm system matches, get some late move
- 4:08breakdowns there. So hope to see you guys, those
- 4:10live streams on Twitter. We're going to do it all year
- 4:13long, 11:00 AM on Sundays. Hope to see you guys there.
- 4:16So after a great Saturday but a terrible Sunday, let's see if we
- 4:19can get back to our winning ways here for tonight.
- 4:21So let's talk about the biggest game of the night.
- 4:23You guys know what it is. We're going to San Francisco
- 4:26where the 49ers are hosting The Jets on Monday Night Football.
- 4:29Last game of the week 1 slight. And this one's interesting for a
- 4:32couple of reasons. Well, first, let's set the
- 4:34stage. Give kind of an overarching, you
- 4:36know, last year to this year, take on each team.
- 4:39Jets, remember, Aaron Rodgers tours Achilles first game of the
- 4:42year. They ended up going 7 and 10,
- 4:45finished third in the AFC East, missed the postseason.
- 4:47Well, with a healthy Rodgers, oddsmakers are expecting a
- 4:50better year this year. For The Jets, their win total is
- 4:5210 1/2. It is just up a little bit to
- 4:54the under at -145. Meanwhile, the Niners, 12:00 and
- 4:585:00 last year, end up winning their division going to the
- 5:01Super Bowl, losing the Chiefs, luckily because I was on my home
- 5:04as a dog, but they lost 2522 in overtime.
- 5:07However, oddsmakers once again are expecting a good year out of
- 5:10the Niners. Their win total is 11 1/2, tied
- 5:13with the Chiefs for the biggest in the NFL, but it is just up a
- 5:16little bit under at -145 So based on both of those win
- 5:20totals, we're looking at couple good teams here going head to
- 5:22head for tonight. So what is the betting market
- 5:24told us? Well, this game open with the
- 5:2649ers listed as high as a 5 1/2 point home favorite.
- 5:30And we've seen the 49ers now get down to -4 Now why is that
- 5:34important? Because it's not the public
- 5:36hammering The Jets and the line moving toward the popular side.
- 5:39It's the public sticking with the 49ers. 49ers are currently
- 5:42getting almost 2/3 of bets at DraftKings, yet the lines going
- 5:46away from them toward The Jets. This would be a classic reverse
- 5:49line move where the betting line goes away from the popular side
- 5:51toward the unpopular side. Now, I know we had a few
- 5:54yesterday that didn't come through for you, but I wanted to
- 5:56kind of give this, I don't know, comparison like meteorologist,
- 6:00you know, the weatherman, the weather woman, they'll give you
- 6:02the forecast. Maybe they say it, say it's
- 6:04going to rain and it doesn't rain at all.
- 6:05We say what an idiot they were. But here's the thing, they're
- 6:08going to get it right more often than not long haul.
- 6:11So if the weatherman or weather woman says it's going to rain
- 6:14today, are you going to say, well, last time you said it was
- 6:16going to rain, it didn't. So therefore, I'm not going to
- 6:18wear a raincoat or pack an umbrella.
- 6:20No, you're still going to do that because again, even though
- 6:22the sharp line moves didn't come through yesterday as much as we
- 6:25wanted to, still long term, we're going to play that system
- 6:27match. So I can already hear on
- 6:29Twitter, well, well, the Panthers were in the same spot
- 6:32yesterday and they got rolled. Hey, you can bet Niners then if
- 6:35you want. But to me, I got to stick with
- 6:36the model, stick with The Jets here.
- 6:38So I'm going to go with The Jets plus 5 1/2 down to four.
- 6:41Now. I was able to shop around and
- 6:42find Jets at plus 4 1/2. If you can find the hook, I
- 6:46highly recommend it at FanDuel. They're all offering Jets right
- 6:49now plus 4 1/2 at -115 Why is that important?
- 6:53Well, lose by 4. You want to cover with the hook
- 6:55instead of push. Also, you do have a great teaser
- 6:58play here. If you did have a four and a
- 6:59half. Wanted to take Jets up to 10
- 7:011/2. That's the long teaser going
- 7:02through 7:00 and 10:00. But anyway, let's stick with The
- 7:05Jets breakdown here. Publix on Niners, Lions going to
- 7:08The Jets. Try to find the four and half if
- 7:10you can with the hook. But The Jets are only getting
- 7:1239% of spread bets, but nearly 50% of spread dollars.
- 7:16So good low bets, higher dollars bet discrepancy.
- 7:19I wanted to mention two. Some shops even touched 3 1/2
- 7:22with this San Francisco number. So maybe there's some buyback on
- 7:25Niners -3 1/2 that brought it back up to four.
- 7:28But still, it's been all one movement, one way movement in
- 7:30favor of The Jets. Now The Jets are matching quite
- 7:33a few systems for me. One is just a classic contrarian
- 7:36and heavily back game primetime game.
- 7:38I know primetime dogs. I think to start the year
- 7:40they're O and three against the spread.
- 7:42I have not seen them bark. To me this is a system match you
- 7:45want to play because primetime dogs historically are 120 and 94
- 7:49against the spread, 56 percent 8% ROI since 2020.
- 7:53But also The Jets would match as a week one dog who missed the
- 7:55playoffs the previous year. Want to buy loan those teams 59
- 7:59and 44 against the spread 57 percent 11% ROI since 2016.
- 8:04Week 1 Rd. Dogs 52 and 35 against the
- 8:07spread, 60 percent, 16% ROI since 2016.
- 8:11Then if we dig into the coaching quarterback Aaron Rodgers, 28
- 8:15and 21 against the spread, 57 percent, 11% ROI as a dog.
- 8:20Again, missed all of last year, pretty much getting hurt in the
- 8:23opener, but when he's at the Packers, he was getting points.
- 8:26He tended to cover quite a few numbers here.
- 8:28Kyle Shanahan, by the way, coach of the Niners, he's only 16 and
- 8:3221 against the spread, 43% as a home favorite.
- 8:36Also a little nugget here that I was able to pick up for my
- 8:39colleague at VS and Zach Cohen. He mentioned this, but Super
- 8:42Bowl losers, if you lose the Super Bowl the following opening
- 8:45week of the next season, those teams are just 5 and 19 against
- 8:49the spread, 21% over the last 24 years.
- 8:52That's a good kind of fade opportunity of the Niners.
- 8:55And then also did mention a little bit of interest in the
- 8:58total. Did see it fall 45 down to 43.
- 9:02If you do like the under, I lean under a little bit.
- 9:05Try to get the hook on 43 1/2 under.
- 9:07We have seen primetime unders. They're only one and two to
- 9:09start this year, but there are 60% historically and the
- 9:12public's going over in this one. Nearly 2/3 of bets are on the
- 9:15over, yet the total fell. So again, do you want to tease
- 9:19up The Jets? Do you want to take the total up
- 9:20and then take the under? I'm just going to ride jets with
- 9:23the hook, the plus 4 1/2. But these are obviously options
- 9:26available to you. But add it all up here, guys,
- 9:29even though yesterday was not the day we were looking for, you
- 9:31got to stick with it. Forest amongst the trees.
- 9:33There's going to be ups and downs, but this is a classic
- 9:37public San Fran yet line going to The Jets.
- 9:40Lot of system matches. I'm going to take The Jets here.
- 9:43So shop around. I got The Jets at plus 4 1/2.
- 9:46That's what I'm rocking. I got that at FanDuel.
- 9:49Now for a prop bet, hopefully to catch a prop bet for us tonight.
- 9:54Focused on one guy who caught my eye using the Rhythm app.
- 9:57Breece Hall, member of the stud from Iowa State.
- 10:00He's been great in the NFL as long as he's healthy.
- 10:02This is one of the most electric running backs in the NFL, and I
- 10:04noticed a good angle here to go over 28 1/2 receiving yards.
- 10:09This one is notable because on the one hand, the betting market
- 10:13is 28 1/2 receiving yards, but Rhythm is predicting 35.5, so
- 10:18that would be a what, 7 pretty much 7 yard discrepancy?
- 10:23But I also like the fact that Brief Stall has gone over this
- 10:25number in eight of his last 12 games.
- 10:27If you ever watch The Jets games like little dump offs out of the
- 10:30backfield debris hall, he can RIP off a, you know, 30 yard
- 10:32gain. So that's definitely something
- 10:35I'm rooting for tonight. He was second on the team and
- 10:38targets last year with 95. Only Garrett Wilson had more.
- 10:41He had 168. And if you remember the Super
- 10:43Bowl, San Francisco gave up 48 receiving yards to the running
- 10:47backs of the Chiefs, Isaiah Pacheco and Jerick McKinnon.
- 10:50Jamir Gibbs and David Montgomery also had 31 yards out of the
- 10:54backfield in the NFC Championship game.
- 10:57Then also kind of caveat it with, you know, The Jets are the
- 11:00dog here, you know, so are they going to have to play catch up?
- 11:03Are they down in this game? Obviously, we all hope they
- 11:05cover the number, but kind of a short spread dog back and forth,
- 11:08maybe, maybe garbage points or garbage yards late.
- 11:12And we have an opportunity here to go breeze Hall over 28 1/2
- 11:15receiving yards. That's what I'm rocking.
- 11:17Haul over 28 1/2 receiving yards.
- 11:19And again, Rhythm. Our friends at Rhythm are
- 11:21predicting a 35.5 receiving yardage output.
- 11:25So I'm a big Jets guy tonight. Jets plus 4 1/2 briefs.
- 11:28Haul over 28 1/2. Now over to Major League
- 11:32Baseball. Wouldn't you know what?
- 11:33We're going to stick to a team located in New York.
- 11:36Although The Jets, I guess, are jersey in the Meadowlands,
- 11:38right? Anyway, one game caught my eye
- 11:40in baseball, Mets in the Toronto Blue Jays.
- 11:43I'm going to take a shot here on the Mets, guys.
- 11:45Mets are on the road. They open this game around a -,
- 11:49115 road favorite. Now they're all the way up to
- 11:51-130 So right off the bat, I saw good 15 cents steam move in
- 11:55favor of the Mets. Now let's look at the pitching
- 11:57match up Mets at the Jays tonight.
- 11:59The Mets are throwing Tyler Miguel.
- 12:01He's three and five with a 4.95 ERA.
- 12:04He'll be opposed by Burr. Who's Owen?
- 12:07One with a 4.44 ERA and it looks like he's the opener.
- 12:10This guy's usually pitching out of the pen, but the first thing,
- 12:13as I mentioned is a line move to the Mets, 15 cent move -115 up
- 12:17to -130 Mets are getting around 70% of bets in dollars, but
- 12:21there's a lot of system matches on the Mets here.
- 12:23One would be an interleague favorite.
- 12:25So the lack of familiarity benefiting quote UN quote the
- 12:27better team hopefully to to get a win here for us, but also
- 12:32other good system matches here. Rd. favorites in general in
- 12:35baseball this year are 438 and three 3057% around a 1% ROI.
- 12:41Also Fate Rd. favored off a loss with match with the Mets.
- 12:43They I think they're nine and one last 10 games where they
- 12:46lost yesterday. But Rd. favorites with steam
- 12:48$0.10 or more. This one of my favorite system
- 12:50matches. Rd. favorites getting $0.10 of
- 12:52steam or more are 72 and 41 this year, 64 percent, 6% ROI.
- 12:59Mets are 38 and 31 on the road. They've been good on the road.
- 13:02Toronto is just 34 and 35 at home.
- 13:05I'm going to bank on the offense of the Mets hopefully coming to
- 13:07play tonight. They're hitting 248 on the year.
- 13:10They've hit 182 homers, scored 681 runs versus Toronto who has,
- 13:16who was hitting 242 with 148 homers, 611 runs scored.
- 13:21Also last 10. As I mentioned, Mets playing
- 13:24great ball baseball. Right now they're nine and one.
- 13:27Their last 10, they're hitting 241 with a 1.78 ERA.
- 13:30Their pitching has been great. Toronto 3:00 and 7:00 last 10
- 13:33hitting 264 with a 310 ERA. Also late in the year,
- 13:38motivation I think is important to at least be aware of.
- 13:40The Mets right now are tied with the Braves for the last wild
- 13:44card spot, excuse me, and the National League.
- 13:46So got to continue to play well and earn a postseason berth.
- 13:50Toronto is way out of it. So really not much to fight for
- 13:52here. So once once I saw this big
- 13:55steam with some good system matches, better offense, playing
- 13:58good ball as of late, I said, hey, let's take a shot on the
- 14:00Mets tonight. So I'm going New York Mets, the
- 14:03Mets meet, let's meet the Mets at -130.
- 14:08So that about does it for a Monday edition of the All
- 14:10Systems Go Sports Betting podcast powered by Rhythm.
- 14:14This is the part of the pod, though, where I give you some
- 14:16things, few things to chew on as we finish up and get ready for a
- 14:20big night of sweats. Number one is if you enjoy this
- 14:23pod and you want to help me grow the pod, gain more eyeballs or
- 14:27ears listening to the pod on a daily basis.
- 14:29Well, can you do me one big favor?
- 14:31Could you please give this podcast a five star review?
- 14:35It'll take you 5 seconds, probably less.
- 14:37Click the five stars. If there's an option to leave
- 14:39some good, you know, comments or reviews.
- 14:41If you want to hit the follow button so you get alerted as
- 14:43soon as it drops. I would very much appreciate
- 14:45that guys. But again, A5 star review would
- 14:47go a long way to help us to continue to rise up the charts.
- 14:51Secondly, if you enjoy this style of betting, obviously the
- 14:54results were not there yesterday in the NFL.
- 14:57It was a bit disappointing overall, we continue to grind.
- 14:59That's that's betting. You go, you go one and five with
- 15:02your plays, five and one. Either way, you got to stick
- 15:04with it and never get too high or too low.
- 15:06But if this style of betting in terms of analyzing the data in
- 15:10the market, how lines open, how and why they move, how to read
- 15:13line movement, how to locate sharp action, how to go
- 15:15contrarian, how to place a bet in person or online, if that
- 15:18appeals to you, that style of betting, well, go buy my book.
- 15:21I wrote a book. It's the sharp contrarian
- 15:23blueprint. It's called the everything guide

- 15:30hands that you can hold and reference and write in the

- 15:34sports book and bring my book to the book, pun intended, I guess,
- 15:38or not, I'll sign it for you and I'll buy you a beer or ginger
- 15:41ale. But but if you want to buy one
- 15:43for you or a buddy, it'll mean a lot to me.

- 17:00again, it was a weekend of highs with UFC and you know, Iowa
- 17:04State coming back, a weekend of lows yesterday.
- 17:07And of course, when you know my Patriots knockout, everyone's in
- 17:10survivor. So I didn't see that one coming,
- 17:13but it's going to be a long year.
- 17:14Again, whether we had a great NFL Sunday or a terrible one,
- 17:17it's a long season. Don't get too high or too low.
- 17:20We have a lot of money making opportunities throughout the
- 17:22year. With that being said, whether I
- 17:24see you at the Borgata in Atlantic City, Twin River in
- 17:27Rhode Island in the Brooklyn, New Hampshire Foxwoods or
- 17:29Mohegan Sun down in Connecticut at the Encore in Boston or Plain
- 17:32Ridge Park Casino or MGM Springfield in my neck of the
- 17:35woods in Massachusetts, they're out in the desert where the true
- 17:38grinders get down. Or Billy Walter sends his number
- 17:40runners with lowest juice possible is found at the South
- 17:43Point. Or sweat and sharp contrarian
- 17:44plays jumping in the stadium swimming pool.
- 17:46When you cash a big ticket, whoever it may be, you're going
- 17:49to walk up to me. And I guess the highlight of the
- 17:51weekend was extending our UFC winning streak to 12 straight
- 17:55biting. Show me a Sean Brady ticket
- 17:58winning a huge fight for us in the Octagon.
- 18:00Guess what? First one's on me, next one's on
- 18:02you. We're going to post about the
- 18:03book Sweat Sharp Contrarian Plays all night long so wish you
- 18:07the best luck everyone. Have a fantastic Monday and as
- 18:10always, stay sharp, stay contrary and bet against the
- 18:12public. Place yourself on the side of
- 18:14the house. Always Be with the smart money,
- 18:16never against it. Will smart money win every time?
- 18:18No, it lost on Panthers, Titans, Raiders, Commanders, Browns.
- 18:21It was not a good day yesterday, but don't lose sight of the
- 18:24marathon instead of the Sprint. We can consistently long term
- 18:29bet with our head and not our heart.
- 18:30Against the public, with the house, with the pros, flat bet,
- 18:34avoid parlays, get that closing line value.
- 18:36If we can do that long term, we're going to be successful
- 18:38sports bettors. So let's go Jets, let's go
- 18:41Breece Hall, let's go Mets, let's try to go 2 and one and
- 18:43eke out a winning night here, guys.
- 18:45I wish you the best of luck and we'll be back at it tomorrow for
- 18:48episode 116 of the All Systems Go Sports Betting podcast
- 18:53powered by Rhythm. Have a great night everybody,
- 18:55good luck.
