Brandon Lang, the man who
rocketed to fame as a sports handicapper,
and Bodog.com, the company that revolutionized
online entertainment, have teamed up.
In an agreement signed earlier
this week, Lang and Bodog will work in conjunction
to build a dynamic Bodog presence on his
website www.brandonlang.com . Lang is the
subject of the Hollywood film Two for the
Money, whose premiere was sponsored by Bodog.
“Teaming with Brandon
Lang seemed like a natural for us,”
says Bodog Founder and CEO Calvin Ayre.
“We’re very excited to be working
with one of the most successful handicappers
in the world.”
Lang’s prodigious rise
to handicapping stardom is chronicled in
Two for the Money, which stars Al Pacino
and Matthew McConaughey (as Lang), and opens
in theaters on Friday, October 7 th. In
an exclusive interview with BodogNation,
Lang spoke candidly about how he orchestrated
the development of the movie about his life.
As well, he discussed the ups and downs
of picking games for a living.
“A gunshot wound to
the heart” is how he characterized
the feeling he gets when he gives bad advice
at the worst time to a client who can’t
afford for him to be wrong.
In the article, Lang says
he once went 2-for-12 on the biggest volume
weekend of the NFL season and was strung
by the ankles in Central Park by a client
who lost plenty. He also says he has told
his clients to “cut back” during
his losing streaks and that he has a mantra
all gamblers should learn to obey.
Two for the Money, which
features a Bodog-owned restaurant in one
of its pivotal scenes, is surprisingly true
to his life, Lang says.
“The Brandon Lang exclusive
demonstrates the breadth of BodogNation’s
coverage,” says Ayre, the publisher
of BodogNation. “The online magazine
is an information resource for the gamblíng
industry and for entertainment news. Our
online magazine continues to add to our
stature as a 21 st century media giant and
proven leader in the Information Age.”
Along with the article on
Lang, BodogNation also features coverage
of the Two for the Money red-carpet world
premiere and a review of the film, as well
as weekly analysis of the NFL, NCAA and
Bodog Fantasy Football, and stories about
poker and casino strategy. Soon Lang will
join BodogNation as a contributor, providing
analysis and against-the-spread breakdowns
to readers of the magazine. Also, the magazine
each month features a Bodog Girl as the
subject of a photo editorial themed around
a sports or entertainment event. Visit BodogNation
