GP flies solo this week and takes the opportunity to ramble on about his journey from mediocre poker player to pretty good sports bettor. (This includes a quick double-up on the signing bonus he got in business school)The news is dominated by the Real Time Assistance tool ETR released for Underdog best ball drafts. If you think that's the story - you're wrong. Because Underdog comes out and says they ALLOW this type of RTA in a move that blows the mind of anyone who's ever played online poker.Q&A then goes into why GP doesn't plug GP Picks+ on the pod and some other odds and ends.Remember - all things related to the podcast stem from the free discord at goldenpants.com0:00 GP Origin Story31:40 Key moments & lifestyle changes that lead to success42:05 Underdog allows ETR's real-time assistance tool1:04:00 Penn boardroom drama1:09:00 What do you say you do for a living?1:12:05 Why do you not plug GP Picks+?1:26:40 How to find balance without set hoursWelcome to The Risk Takers Podcast, hosted by professional sports bettor John Shilling (GoldenPants13) and SportsProjections.
