When DraftKings posted +225 on there being a perfect game during the MLB season, gambling Twitter immediately called it one of the worst prices ever hung. But most of the outrage focused on the wrong reasons. In this video, Rob Pizzola breaks down why the reaction missed the mark, walks through the probability calculation step by step, converts the implied odds properly, and uses base rate math to estimate the true price of this season-long prop in the Major League Baseball betting market. Along the way, he explains what this says about sportsbook pricing and how to think about market mispricing more intelligently. Rather than piling on, Rob treats this as a sports betting analysis exercise — showing viewers how to approach niche markets, sanity-check numbers, and build a number from scratch. If you’ve ever wondered how to price something like a perfect game prop yourself, this is a full breakdown of the math and assumptions behind it on the Circles Off channel. 📅 New episodes of Circle Back every Monday at 1 pm ET and additional content Wednesdays at pm, ranging from interviews with industry experts to educational videos! 🟢 Check out Kalshi and get signed up today: https://kalshi.onelink.me/1r91/hammer 📊Scale with PRO.

A sportsbook accidentally listed every golfer in the Cognizant Classic at -10000 while adjusting lines — and for a brief window, chaos broke out across the market. Bettors holding longshots suddenly saw absurd cashout offers hit their accounts, creating one of the wildest pricing errors we’ve seen in golf betting. The crew breaks down what actually happened, how these -10000 placeholders triggered massive cashouts, whether books are obligated to honor them, and what this says about how sportsbooks manage live risk and line moves. We also dive into Alex Monahan’s claim that bankroll management is overrated and debate whether traditional betting discipline is outdated in today’s market. Joining Jacob Gramegna are Mike (Mr. PeanutBettor), Joey Knish, and Porter from BA Analytics to unpack the controversy, the philosophy clash, and everything else making noise in gambling Twitter this week. 📅 New episodes of Circle Back every Monday at 1pm ET and Friday at 8am ET.

Are prediction markets rigged? Rob Pizzola gives his honest take on the stigma surrounding prediction markets and why many of the common criticisms don’t hold up. He breaks down how these markets actually function, where the skepticism comes from, and whether concerns about manipulation or unfair advantages are rooted in reality. Rob also explains how pricing, liquidity, and incentives work in practice — and why misunderstanding those mechanics fuels a lot of the backlash. He also discusses the value of products like Kalshi, how prediction markets compare to traditional sportsbooks, and where sharp bettors may (or may not) find edge. This episode is hosted by Rob Pizzola, professional sports bettor and CEO of The Hammer, and dives into the evolving role of prediction markets within the broader betting ecosystem. 📅 New episodes of Circle Back every Monday at 1 pm ET and additional content Wednesdays at pm, ranging from interviews with industry experts to educational videos! 🟢 Check out Kalshi and get signed up today: https://kalshi.onelink.me/1r91/hammer 📊Scale with PRO.

We originally asked our audience to send in their sports betting questions through YouTube comments, email, and Discord. The problem? Most of them were terrible. So we did something different: we took every comment from the past year on Circles Off, fed them into ChatGPT, and asked it to generate the 10 questions that every serious sports bettor actually needs answered. The result is a brutally honest, evergreen sports betting Q&A focused on improving your process, avoiding common mistakes, understanding edge, bankroll management, market selection, and what it really takes to become a profitable bettor. Professional sports bettor Rob Pizzola and basketball originator Kirk Evans break down each question and explain how sharp bettors think differently. If you’re serious about improving at sports betting, this is the test. Let us know in the comments how many you could answer confidently, and subscribe for more sports betting analysis, strategy discussions, and Q&A episodes right here on Circles Off from The Hammer Betting Network. 📅 New episodes of Circle Back every Monday at 1 pm ET and additional content Wednesdays at pm, ranging from interviews with industry experts to educational videos! 🟢 Check out Kalshi and get signed up today: https://kalshi.onelink.me/1r91/hammer 📊Scale with PRO.
