Haralabos Voulgaris | How a Top Gambler Disrupted The Dallas Mavericks

In this Win-Win Podcast Episode, Liv and Igor chat to one of the world's most successful sports bettors: Haralabos "Bob" Voulgaris. Revered for his hyper-analytical, data-driven approach to gambling, Bob soon became known as one of the most prolific NBA bettors in the history of the basketball, a reputation that even got him hired by Marc Cuban to run strategy for the Dallas Mavericks! As well as exploring his various secrets of success (and failures!), we also hear about his most recent undertaking… buying the 3rd division Spanish football team CD Castellon to see if his strategic formula can bring them to the 1st division. Ambitious stuff, and one of the many reasons why Haralabos offers a unique perspective on sports, the often seedy world of gambling, and zero-sum competition itself. Oh and apologies for Igor's mic! I seemingly forgot to plug it in and thus his sound is bad (so we had to cut a lot of his questions). Sorry Igor. But your hair looks nice at least.
