This week, Shane and Pace sit down with Alex Piskopos aka Pisky, former OLG employee turned professional bettor and co-host of the Always Betting podcast who shares how he got his sweet revenge on Ontario Lottery and Gaming by taking them for over six figures! (Or so we're told) Alex spills the secrets of how he exploited OLG's outdated system using Scantron slips, cash envelopes, and an army of runners to rack up huge wins on unders and parlays. They dive deep into the shady tactics of soft books, government-run sportsbooks, and how successful bettors get shut down fast. This isn't just a story of winning—it's a tale of beating the system and flipping the script on predatory sportsbooks.
