Did anyone catch last nights episode regarding online fantasy sports betting? It was a great show and blew me away that one site (Fan Duel) will be either worth or making a projected billion dollars next year.

It appears that the Wall Street Trader's are heavily involved with that site and some are making upwards of 7 figures a year by placing daily bets.

They are also using sophisticated algorithm software that updates every player's stat every few minutes, 24 hours a day.

There are some smart people out there who are using their nuggets to make some serious money. Most, who were interviewed at least, said they use the fantasy sports bets to earn extra income and they also had "regular" jobs as well.

One guy said he turned $50 into $30K+ in just 2 months of daily bets? Then they interviewed a guy who lost more then that in a single day because of a water main break that caused a game to be rescheduled at one of the ball parks.

The air date was 09/25/14 and it is definitely worth watching if you are into fantasy sports betting online. I don't know if it has been uploaded on the net yet, but they (HBO) usually rerun their shows for a few days after the originial air date. Real Sports with Bryant Gumbel on HBO. Check it out.

And yet, I can't play a $2 poker game on Pokerstars.
