Spanky on BetBash 2025, Betting Partnerships & SpotOdds

Las Vegas is calling—and Gambling with Good JuJu is answering with our second interview featuring the legendary Spanky, one of the most respected voices in professional sports betting and the mastermind behind BetBash, the premier sports betting networking conference in the world.

In this episode, we go deep on everything from the 2025 BetBash schedule, to how to form profitable betting partnerships, to SpotOdds, and even a bit of legislative drama that could impact every gambler in the country.

Whether you're an aspiring sharp, a recreational casino degen, or just someone who wants to learn from one of the best to ever do it, this one’s for you.

🎉 What is BetBash, and Why Is It a Must-Attend Event?

We kicked things off by having Spanky give a fresh overview of BetBash for listeners who may have missed our previous interview.

He emphasized how BetBash isn't about vendor booths or sales pitches. It’s about real relationships and authentic conversations. And with this year’s lineup of seminars, panels, and mixers, it’s shaping up to be bigger and better than ever.

You can find all the details at betbash.co.

📚 Inside the BetBash 2025 Seminar Schedule

Juice and Breezy had already broken down the published seminar schedule in a previous episode, but this time we asked Spanky to share which sessions he’s personally excited about.

But what about the panel discussions? We asked for the inside scoop.

🤝 How to Prepare for BetBash Speed Networking

One of the most underrated parts of BetBash is the speed networking event—a rapid-fire chance to meet potential betting partners, syndicate members, or content collaborators.

Juice shared that he’s updated his profile this year to better reflect his desire to partner up. So we asked Spanky:

  • What should you be ready to answer?

  • What should you be asking potential partners?

  • What red flags should you look for?

Solid guidance.

🗺️ What’s the Deal with the Scavenger Hunt?

Last year, the Good JuJu crew completely missed the BetBash scavenger hunt. This year, they’re not making the same mistake.

According to Spanky, the scavenger hunt will be more focused, structured, and rewarding.

Don't sleep on it.

🎰 Will Spanky Be Hitting the Casino Tables?

While Gambling with Good JuJu leans heavily into casino content these days—covering craps, blackjack, and low-roller strategies—we had to ask:

“Spanky, are you gonna hit the casino tables with us this year?”

He smiled and played it coy, but we’re optimistic. You might just see Spanky at a craps table on Fremont if the vibes are right.

📊 What Is SpotOdds and Why Should Bettors Care?

Spanky also talked about his newest project: SpotOdds, an odds-screening platform designed for sharp bettors and betting groups.

It’s not your average line service.

For those looking to gain a real-time edge, this is a platform worth checking out: spotodds.com

Fun side note: We fielded a Twitter question from @taxmanCPAMST asking how Spanky landed on the name SpotOdds. Turns out it was the perfect mix of simplicity and brandability.

⚖️ Gambling Tax Changes: Spanky’s Take on the 90% Deduction Cap

The conversation took a serious turn when we asked about the new proposed federal legislation that would limit gambling loss deductions to 90% of gambling wins.

Stay tuned. This legislation could have massive implications for both sports and casino gamblers across the country.

🎧 Final Thoughts: Let’s Go to BetBash

Whether you’re new to the scene or a long-time grinder, BetBash 2025 is shaping up to be the event for bettors of all kinds.
