This Friday, Jacob Gramegna is joined by Joey Knish, Mike (Mr. PeanutBettor), and Storm Pig to react to two takes that stirred up Gambling Twitter. We look at a tweet claiming you donโ€™t need to know anything about sports betting to win, and a post from a prediction market CEO calling regulated sportsbooks a scam. We break down why these takes blew up and what they say about the current conversations in the betting space. Circle Back is part of the Circles Off channel on The Hammer Betting Network.

Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesnโ€™t know all the details of his brotherโ€™s nefarious dealings, and heโ€™s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larryโ€™s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
