Money Talks on CNBC

What's funny is even the chick knew that was B.S. She called him on it right away. He seems like an amateur.

And then I notice that almost every bet this past episode, they wanted you to buy the half point. Even from 12 down to 11.5!!!! What a bunch of donkeys lol. Then when they listed the wager on the screen, they still said, "5500 to win 5000" as if they were ignoring the extra juice. Oh what fun lol

This is Boilerroom and obviously very little sports handicapping.They could be pushing pennystocks,gold/silver,condos,real estate,or alum. siding.

When I lived in LasVegas I worked in the boilerroom of the guy who perfected this sportscamming Jim Feist.He bought tv time on  Sat.morning cable outlets and he always had to tout a late game on TV so the phone callers had enough time to get hooked.If they called for the free game I had to ask for a zipcode because callers east of Mississippi got 1 side and west got the other. Feist was 50% but a marketing giant.

Obviously it has to be dramatized for television, but its nice to get a show on the gambling subject. With that said, its completely farce with the acting and really more the insight of touts. I unfortunately have ended up on that last and endured 100's of phone calls from people like them. Its a scam and clearly for entertainment purposes.

I just wonder if you're paying 50% commissions, which is idiotic, can you deduct losses against future commissions paid? Other wise it seems like its better buying the package deal if you're a high roller.

I would love to get into a fight with Pirelli. If I win he has to pay me $10000 cash and if I lose he can have my soul.
