Poker Pros David 'ODB' Baker and Mark Gregorich Score Big in Sportsbetting


Veteran poker pros David 'ODB' Baker and Mark Gregorich had a remarkable 2020, teaming up to claim major wins in year-long NFL sportsbetting contests offered by two separate Las Vegas casinos. The Baker-Gregorich team, named ODBMG2, won the Las Vegas SuperContest offered by the Westgate Las Vegas, worth $435,623. Their victory came down to the final week, where they went 3-2 against a bettor named Yugo77, who went 2-3.

The team also participated in the Circa Sports Million II contest, with a million-dollar first prize at stake. Although they fell just short of the top prize, they managed to tie for second place, earning another $200,000. The close call involved a game where the Seattle Seahawks failed to cover the spread against the San Francisco 49ers, which affected their chances for the huge double win.

David 'ODB' Baker tweeted about the team's performance, expressing both disappointment and excitement. He mentioned the close call with the Seattle Seahawks game and the team's overall success. Baker also expressed interest in appearing on nationally syndicated sportsbetting shows, citing his long-time admiration for hosts Bill Simmons and Sal Iacono.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
