After an ​intriguing first part​ of SBC Podcast #83 this is part two, where I quiz the betting expert Jose and get some answers to bettor FAQs.

After discussing technical betting topics in part 1, this segment covers more 'practical' subjects as we start by touching upon issues such as barriers to profitable betting, cryptocurrencies and how the betting ecosystem is changing around the world.

Jose and I then go on to discuss questions that are regularly fired our way here at the SBC around betting with soft bookmakers, sharp bookmakers and exchanges in the most efficient ways possible.

Jose's personality and wisdom shine through even more in the second half of Episode 83 as he talks us through some 'dos and don'ts' that many of us wish we had learnt sooner!
