Heyyy, Bettor Bettor! Sports Betting Basics With Homegrown Analyst Minty Bets
Football season starts tomorrow, and for some of you, it’s not just ego and bragging rights on the line.

Yahoo sports betting analyst and Las Vegas local Minty (who goes by “Minty Bets” online) joins host Vogue Robinson to answer all of our most pressing and ridiculous questions about sports betting: What kind of prep does she have to do? Does sports betting ruin the experience of the game? Is Las Vegas still important in the ever-expanding world of sports-betting? And how can you tell when you’ve gone a little too far with the wagers?
