This week on The Wager Pager Podcast, Chris Rodgers ( @TheWagerPager ( https://twitter.com/TheWagerPager ) ) and Mercedes Barba ( @MercedesBianca ( https://twitter.com/mercedesbianca ) ) , the sports betting couple from Jersey City, discuss all the breaking news in the world of sports gambling. They discuss the week long controversy at The FanDuel sportsbook in New Jersey that ended in anything but a bad beat for one bettor in the garden state! They touch on some gambling news coming out of the NHL, and break down what’s going on with the congressional meeting that will take place regarding federal regulations for sports betting (0:00-7:17). Mercedes and Chris are joined this week by Chris Andrews ( @andrewssports ( https://twitter.com/andrewssports ) ). Chris is a Las Vegas bookmaking industry veteran, the current Director of The South Point Casino Sportsbook at the tip of the strip and a VSiN (Vegas Stats and Information Network) on-air personality. Andrews tells them how a situation somewhat similar to FanDuel’s went down in Sin City, what it’s like to be a bookmaker at one of the biggest and best sportsbooks in Las Vegas, and they talk about how the NFL futures market has changed after the first two weeks of the season (7:18-19:32). And Finally, Jimmy “Dice” Ruhlen ( @JamesRuhlen ( https://twitter.com/JamesRuhlen ) ), former Marist College defensive back, returns to the show once again to offer up his perspective from a player’s point of view. Chris and Jim make their official selections -- that they will bet -- for College Football week 4 and NFL week 3 (19:35-54:58). Get Pumped, Get Psyched! It’s The Wager Pager Podcast!
