Mathematics and statistics are an essential ingredient to beating out the bookmakers. While nobody can calculate precisely for blown calls by referees such as the missed New Orleans Saints vs. Los Angeles Rams penalty call that would have put the Saints into the 2019 Super Bowl but none the less lets talk about sports bettor Mickey Appelman of New York.
He’s been a professional sports bettor since 1974 and parlayed his earnings into poker where he has won multiple world series of poker bracelets (4 as of this news article write up). He received a bachelors in Mathematics from Ohio State and an MBA in Statistics from Case Western.
