It'll be replacing Hot 92.9.

Audacy announced the expansion of the “BetQL Network” with the addition of seven broadcast stations to the portfolio. Beginning June 21, the following stations will rebrand as part of the “BetQL Network.”

Baltimore – The Bet 1300AM (WJZ-AM)
Detroit – The Bet 1270AM (WXYT-AM)
Houston – The Bet 650AM (KIKK-AM)
Kansas City – The Bet 1660AM (KWOD-AM)
Las Vegas – The Bet 1140AM (KXST-AM)
New Orleans – The Bet 1350AM and 92.9FM (WWWL-AM/FM) (launching June 28)

These seven station rebrands are an addition to the previously launched The Bet 1430AM (KEZW-AM) in Denver, The Bet 105.9 FM-HD2 in Chicago and The Bet 93.1 HD3 in Los Angeles. “BetQL Network” programming will also be heard in various times on 560 The Joe WQAM (WQAM-AM) in Miami, The New Sportsradio 910 AM / 105.1 FM The Fan (WRNL-AM/FM) in Richmond and 980 The Team (WTEM-AM) in Washington D.C, which brings the network’s presence to 12 total markets nationwide. Future stations will be announced in the coming months as markets legalize sports betting.

This is what we need. Wall to wall talking heads giving bad advice to degenerates who are just begging to give their money away.

If these guys were really great at sports gambling they wouldn’t be on the radio.

That's better than listen to sports "story line" and rumors/gossips about what player X thinks about player Y or Why so and so doesn't get along with this GM soap opera.

It's a marketing scheme. These radio stations that talk sports betting exist to funnel people into sportsbooks so they can lose their money. And then get kickbacks from the sports books for sending people their way.

I wouldn't even call the garbage they talk about on these sports betting shows "advice". It's shite. It certainly isn't going to help you win I can tell you that.

Sports betting radio is such a horrible product. It's no different than traditional sports talk radio. You're not going to give good advice by saying "I think X team covers against Y because Z". Any actual advice that helps someone win will be rooted in machine learning algorithms, coding, and being able to extract and manipulate large data sets. Not someone's opinion extracted from their arse.

I've always said 1 in 100 actually profit long term betting on sports but I would say in reality the number is probably closer to 1 in 1,000 or 1 in 10,000.

Some of the biggest idiots I know are the ones who show up on programs like these. Like true idiots. Because the ones who get jobs such as sports betting radio talk show hosts are touts that won the race to the bottom in marketing and advertising(LYING) themselves, not actually successful people. Because the extremely rare person who actually succeeds at sports betting keeps a low profile.

I recall thinking the same thing when these tout infomercials would show up on weekend morning cable TV in the '90s. (One of those touts, Wayne Allyn Root, has since run for president on the libertarian party ticket and sometime writes columns that get quoted in conservative media)

There's a great book on gambling -- forgot the title, it's at the EBRP library -- that tells about a guy who got hooked on using tout services for betting on the NFL. He lost so much money that he went nuts and shot one of the touts. When asked about the case, and tout services in general. one of his co-workers replied, "Use your head -- if we knew who was going to win and by how much, why would we tell you? We'd just bet on the game ourselves."

For nostalgia reasons I used to listen to the Saints games on 870.

The big sponsors behind this show will be businesses looking to profit off of sports betting. BetMGM(sportsbook) and BetQL(touting service) are the two main drivers here. BetQL sells the fantasy, and BetMGM does the booking.

Sports Betting Radio programs are so bad. When I go to Circa you see VSiN right there and its terrible. Absolutely terrible. FOX Bet Live, Daily Wager, its all bad. And by design. These shows exist not to give good advice but to herd people into sportsbooks like lambs to the slaughter and those producing the shows receive a cut of the losses.

Because without complex data science/machine learning algorithms you don't stand a chance. Even with those things you still will probably lose. It's just too difficult.
