Gambling Twitter Explodes • DraftKings Co-Founder RANT • UFC Tax Push | Circle Back

DraftKings co-founder Matt Kalish set Gambling Twitter on fire after a viral rant about prediction markets, sharp bettors, retail gamblers, and the future of sports betting. Jacob Gramegna, Joey Knish, Storm Pig, and Porter of BA Analytics react to the entire situation, break down the backlash, and discuss what the conversation says about the current state of the gambling industry. The crew also dives into the viral “Sports betting will be dead in 5-10 years” take, whether traditional betting research still works, and why so many bettors feel the space is changing rapidly. The show also covers Dana White asking President Donald Trump to help reverse the 90 percent limit on gambling loss deductions for US taxpayers, why the gambling tax issue has become a major talking point across the industry, and plenty more betting discourse from the week.
