In this latest SBC Podcast episode, we shine a spotlight on a North American bettor who has turned software into serious profit.
Franco, known online as Raid_Prints, joins me to share how he went from casual square punter to making over $200,000 profit in just two years. His story is not theory, it’s a real-life example of what’s possible when you combine the right tools, discipline, and mindset.
Fresh from our major SBC review of Pinnacle Odds Dropper and the Episode 92 discussion with its creator, this episode flips the perspective. Franco explains how he uses Pinnacle Odds Dropper (POD) in practice to beat the soft books, where he finds value, and the secrets to sustaining long-term success.
We cover:
- His journey from square to sharp - how he discovered arbitrage, EV betting and eventually Pinnacle Odds Dropper.
- The daily routine of a steamer bettor - why volume is king, how he runs 6,000+ bets, and why priming accounts matters.
- Secrets behind his $200k profit - what sports and markets he targets, managing variance, and coping with restrictions.
- How others can do it too - practical insights into priming, choosing soft vs sharp books, and using POD effectively.
- The North American betting boom - why Franco calls this the “golden age” of betting in the US and how bonus offers, sweepstake books and offshore options fit in.
- The mindset required - tracking bets, handling losing months, and building a long-term edge.
This is not just theory, it’s a showcase of sharp betting in practice. Whether you’re in North America or elsewhere, Franco’s story provides invaluable lessons on discipline, software, and the modern betting environment.
