Did you like the movie? Are you a Sports bettor?

I'm just shocked at all the hate on this board. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. I am a big sports bettor. I'm just wondering if that's the difference between those that hated it and those that liked it. So are you a Sports bettor and did you like the movie? And I don't mean have you placed a $5 bet on a football game before but rather are you someone that really understands the sports betting industry.

I live in Las Vegas and am a big sports bettor

I really wanted to like this movie but couldn't. I actually saw them filming it last year too on fremont street, so was excited to check it out when released. Should have known that when it went direct to streaming on Netflix it would be a bomb

They got most of the betting stuff right, but he story over all was complete dog crap IMO

What a waste of a good cast

I enjoyed the movie. The girls were cute. I was pleasantly surprised to see "That 70's Show" Laura Prepon topless.

I liked the movie, and I'm not some weekend warrior filling out parlay cards. If you're into betting on sports, another movie to check out is "The Runner". Decent cast in that movie too.. You won't be disappointed.
