The avalanche of gambling scandals continues.<\/p>\n

And there is one person, in specific, I\u2019d been meaning to talk to. Someone I don\u2019t agree with, on lots of issues. But someone whose perspective\u00a0\u2014 whose secrets \u2014 I seek on these exact subjects.<\/p>\n

According to both ESPN and himself, Haralabob Voulgaris is the best gambler in the history of the NBA. He\u2019s won more than nine figures betting on games.<\/p>\n

Bob also happens to be the only NBA bettor who got hired to become an actual NBA executive \u2014 title: director of quantitative research and development for the Dallas Mavericks \u2014 and it was in large part because of his success betting.<\/p>\n

Bob, incidentally, is also a highly competitive poker player. And now the owner and operator of CD Castell\u00f3n, a professional soccer team in Spain.<\/p>\n

But what is crucial to establish here is that Bob got insanely rich long before the Supreme Court struck down the federal ban on sports betting, in May 2018.<\/p>\n

Meaning that when Bob was becoming the guy that every legal sports gambler is now striving to be, it was a very, very different world.<\/p>\n
