00:00Okay, so speaking of cynical, the way that a lot of people are viewing this player that
00:10is now banned for life, Tuca Pitamarcano, the cynical comments are this guy won 4% of
00:16his bets.
00:17What is he doing?
00:18He threw his whole baseball career away to be a horrible gambler.
00:23My gosh.
00:24I mean, to me, that's a bigger story, I think, for some of these players out there.
00:28You even had access to know what your team potentially could throw out there in terms
00:34of a starting lineup every day and pitchers and maybe who's available and all that, and
00:38you still couldn't even win.
00:40So why do this?
00:41I don't get why this keeps happening, Matt.
00:44Yeah, I know, and it's like you want to see the bets at that point.
00:48Was he just betting on crazy things?
00:50Was he going for wild parlays and just going for something big, trying to strike it rich
00:55on one big bet?
00:57I don't know.
00:59I am fascinated by it because you originally hear the story, okay, guy bet on baseball.
01:04That's not cool.
01:05Don't do that.
01:06But you at least kind of get it.
01:08You're in the sport.
01:09You're not playing.
01:10You know, he's on the DL.
01:11He's going to make some bets.
01:12He thinks he has insider knowledge.
01:14And then you see that winning percentage and you're like, are you kidding me?
01:17Like, I could do better than that.
01:18What's going on here?
01:20So it's a very strange story.
01:22And you know, I almost feel bad for him because he didn't put that much money into play.
01:29You know, at least comparatively to some other stories we've heard.
01:31And he didn't do well.
01:32And like you said, he threw away, you know, I don't know how much longer his career had
01:37at least at the major league level, but nonetheless, he was a young guy.
01:40And to see this is just kind of unfortunate and foolish.
01:44And yeah, it just leads to more questions.
01:47I think I want to see these bets.
01:49I want to know what he was betting on because staggeringly low winning percentage.
01:58Yeah.
01:59Yeah.
02:00Yeah.
02:01Yeah.
