About the show

Welcome to the inplayLIVE Podcast!! In this season of the podcast, tune in each week to Behind The Lines! In this podcast, we won't be giving out picks, predictions, or what parlays we're making (spoiler alert: parlays are a surefire way to lose money). We're not going to tell you the latest scores and stats, but we're here to blow the lid off the tricks and tactics that sportsbooks use to keep bettors in the dark and at a disadvantage. You'll get an inside look at their sneaky strategies and find out how to dodge their traps and pitfalls. Join inplayLIVE CEO Andrew Pace and host Shane Mercer each week to dive deep into all things sports betting, and how to beat the books!
