This person is about to appear on MSNBC's "The Cycle" live. Will try and find the clip later and paste it here. Interested in finding out who that is.
Edit: Pat Morrow is the name. Gentleman sounds like he's speaking American English without a regional accent. Calling from "an undisclosed location".
He says the Superbowl was incredibly profitable for Bovada and other international sportsbooks given the way it was won. Oscars are more of a niche market. Was an interesting segment.

If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.

100% true. They have been hit on some of props, but ALL teased den play was crushed as well as ML action. SEA and the Over was what they wanted, and they got it.
Article about Nevada casinos, but as far as I know this SB had similar action offshore and in NV.

Very true, not nearly as much interest for those with the offshore accounts. I would guess they are particularly noticably light on big bets on the Oscars (compared to sports action).
