With over 15 years of sports betting experience, if there’s an angle to be exploited, Chris will find it. He loves all things soccer and is a big believer in fading teams in certain situational spots throughout the season in all four major North American sports. He is a diehard Toronto Maple Leafs fan and believes that NHL teams should go back to wearing white in home games.
