How Social Media Is Making You a Worse Sports Bettor | Presented by Kalshi

Social media is not making you a better sports bettor. It might be doing the exact opposite. Today’s algorithms reward outrage, certainty, and constant engagement, not accuracy, long-term profitability, or nuance. The more you interact with bold takes and confident predictions, the more the algorithm feeds you the loudest voices in the room. In sports betting, that creates a dangerous feedback loop that can quietly shape how you think about edge, bankroll management, and what winning actually looks like.

Professional sports bettor Rob Pizzola breaks down how algorithm-driven content is influencing bettors, why confidence online is often mistaken for competence, and the major red flags to watch for before trusting someone in this space. If you believe consuming more betting content automatically makes you sharper, this conversation may change your perspective and help you separate real signal from performative noise before it costs you money.

📅 New episodes of Circle Back every Monday at 1 pm ET and additional content Wednesdays at pm, ranging from interviews with industry experts to educational videos!
