The Genesis Invitational is here, and the Stephie Smalls Show delivers a full betting breakdown for one of the most important stops on the PGA Tour calendar at Riviera Country Club.Stephie is joined by Larry from Tom & Marty’s Bar, one of the sharpest and most entertaining golf bettors around, to dig into course fit, betting value, and how to attack Riviera from a wagering perspective. From outright winners to top-20 and first-round leader bets, this episode covers every angle serious golf bettors need heading into the week.The conversation touches on elite contenders like Genesis Invitational favorites Scottie Scheffler, Rory McIlroy, and Collin Morikawa, while also exploring value and longshot plays featuring Wyndham Clark, Shane Lowry, Cam Young, Adam Scott, Jason Day, Harris English, and rising star Pierceson Coody.Along the way, Larry explains why Riviera rewards elite ball striking, why recent form isn’t always everything on the West Coast swing, and how betting “guys you hate” can still be profitable. The episode also features one of the most bizarre side stories of the PGA season: Larry’s infamous Wendy’s chili bet, which has turned into a multi-week endurance test — and possibly cursed Scottie Scheffler in the process.If you’re betting the Genesis Invitational, this episode is a must-watch.0:00 - Intro1:18 - Larry rebrand explained2:52 - Wendy’s chili bet4:16 - Three bowls daily5:08 - Pride keeps going5:41 - Breaking sugar habits6:24 - Portion control strategy7:00 - Strict rules discipline7:48 - Chicken sandwich countdown8:10 - Morikawa shirt saga8:43 - Stephie Morikawa rant9:17 - Morikawa fixes debate10:09 - Humility and redemption10:38 - Betting guys hated11:49 - Wyndham Clark value12:58 - Villains must win13:38 - Shane Lowry love14:19 - Lowry can’t win15:03 - Cam Young emotions15:40 - Value play “Gator”16:15 - One-and-done dilemma17:04 - Cam Young sickness18:29 - “Rio” riding wave19:02 - Ceiling and putting20:00 - Normal dudes energy21:53 - Pierceson Coody model22:26 - Coody name roasting23:51 - Harris English angle24:11 - First-round leader logic25:20 - Odds check “Gator”26:06 - Market not adjusted26:25 - No household-name knock26:46 - Small sample debate27:38 - Morning chaos context28:08 - Jason Day temptation28:42 - Day career outlook29:03 - Rose inspires vets29:38 - Adam Scott case30:05 - Riviera fits Scott31:14 - Masters motivation timing31:59 - Final bets wrap32:10 - Scheffler chili curse32:46 - Health checks concern33:29 - Wendy’s liability joke Check out CigarBid and use my code SGPN for a great deal: https://cigarbid.com Exclusive SGPN Bonuses And Linkshttp://sg.pn/linksFollow The Sports Gambling Podcast X/Twitter - https://x.com/GamblingPodcastInstagram - https://www.instagram.com/sportsgamblingpodcastTikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@gamblingpodcastFacebook - http://www.facebook.com/sportsgamblingpodcastFollow The Sports Gambling Podcast HostSean Green - http://www.twitter.com/seantgreenRyan Kramer - https://x.com/KramerCentric Gambling problem?
