Video Transcript
MINTY BETS: It's time for winners and losers for a divisional round weekend. I'm Minty Bets here with Director of Trading for MGM Resorts Jeff Stoneback. Jeff, who are the winners of the house this weekend?
JEFF STONEBACK: Well, the house was a winner on Sunday when both dogs covered. The Browns was a winner for the house. And then Tom Brady and the Buccaneers were a big winner for the house.
Just the opposite on Saturday. Both favorites covered. The house lost both games. Packers was a tremendous loss, even though we had taken like a $300,000 bet on the Rams. That didn't put a dent in the loss at all. Everybody was on the Packers. And then the Bills, the night game, once again the favorite covering, that was also a loser.
MINTY BETS: And Jeff, with only four teams remaining, is there anybody that you guys don't want to win next weekend?
JEFF STONEBACK: We definitely don't want the Buccaneers to win. You know, they signed Tom Brady in the summer, and then everybody piled on. And we wrote the most tickets on the Buccaneers, got a big liability on the Buccaneers. So we're rooting for the Packers next week. And then also the Chiefs is a loser for the book. So we'll be rooting for the Packers next week and the Bills next week because both teams we have a large liability on the Super Bowl.
MINTY BETS: All righty. Thank you so much, Jeff. And as always, hopefully you guys were on the right side. And if not, there's always next week.
