Billy Walters On 60 Minutes 1/16

No problem. As I said, throw the link up. That's perfectly acceptable.

I recall vividly that we heard BW played the Colts on the money line last SB. We got this info from the VP of operations of Walters Golf. There was also reports that he used Phil Ivey and other celebs to post the bets etc....unless he was setting up the game to play the other side, which I doubt was the case for the SB, AND I don't think the RJ's Matt Youmans would write such a story without good sources either. For 60 minutes, he said he bet on the Saints, maybe he bet both sides?

it wouldnt have made very good TV if the best sportsbettor out there lost on the biggest game of the year

Is it possible he was talking a different Saints game or did it specifically say in last years Super Bowl?

Maybe he won 3 million on the Saints and lost 3 million on the Colts. Why add the tidbit you got nailed on the other side of the game? That broadcaster was fawning all over him and she was hot as a motherfvcker. You think Billy was gonna ruin his chances to get a piece of that? He's not the best odds player in Vegas for nothing.

Nobody wants to look like an ass on 60 minutes.

I doubt he went and lied that blatantly on 60 minutes when his whole purpose for doing the show was to cast sportsbettors in a more honest light. I also believed his part of the story meshed when he talked about how they had frequently bet the Saints during the year.

In all seriousness, there's no telling what kind of bets he had. Futures, hedges, props, in-game, who knows. He could have taken the Colts for a million and still cleaned up on the game.

Loved when he saw a game he was going to bet and wanted to get a better number, saying "Let's work on this one a little bit!" Hard to lose when you have that kind of power to move the lines, not to mention that he buys just about every talented capper out there.
