The numbers told the story they always do.

It's one of those idiots who believe in analytics.

This is a numbers game with Gil Alexander gone V-Sin.

Number three of a numbers game at VISA, new sports betting network, VISA.com Game Plus,

iHeart radio, YouTube TV, and of course, Sirius XM Channel 158, Gil Alexander.

Kelly is behind the glass, ladies and gentlemen, because it is time for Fezic Fridays.

Let's go.

Whether it's at the sportsbook or anywhere else in the casino, he's always helping us find an edge.

It's time for Fezick Fridays.

Fezick Fridays starring the great Steve Fezick, and by great, I mean the only back-to-back winner of the Hilton Super Contest back in the day. Of course, he's won many other contests, of course, since then, but it is apropos that we highlight that one this week. Steve, good morning to you, sir. And another one bites the dust as the Caesars is going to take over the Westgate super book. You know, there was a time, like in the year 2000, I think there was over 30 independent sports books in Nevada alone. And now I think we're, you know, right around 10, 12. It just keeps dropping. Just keeps dropping. You have some thoughts on this, on the Westgate specifically?

It's a complicated situation.

And I don't want to not mention, you know, there's good, hardworking people that have done a great job at the Westgate.

But the truth is, there's a movie, Danny DeVito, other people's money, where Danny

DeVito comes in and he says, don't be your company is dead.

Don't blame me.

I didn't kill it.

Um, New England copper and cable.

And what happened to Circa just did what Westgate did. And they did it better, frankly. And they came in and they just took the marketplace over. And it's always easy to look back on what went down. But, you know, the Westgate had a monopoly on all these contests. They did such a great job. They have such a great staff. And then they start charging a Vig. And they started, you know, charging attacks on all the bears at absolutely

the wrong time. And within a couple years, the Westgate was the World Series of Sports

Betting. The Super Contest, it is no longer. Circa millions is the World Series of sports betting,

and Circa Survivor is the premier contest.

And just kudos to Circa.
