Out of Bounds: The Sports Betting Boom will premiere on VICE TV January 29 at 9P ET, and will air on the VICE Sports YouTube channel January 30.

Professional sports bettors are few and far between. While millions wager on games every week, only a small group actually makes a living doing it. In this clip, we sit down with professional bettors, aka "sharps," to break down how sports betting really works behind the scenes.

About Out of Bounds: Exploring the latest stories and biggest scandals shaking up the sports world. Out Of Bounds goes beyond the headlines to uncover what really happened, what it says about our culture, and how it could shape the future of sports. In this installation, VICE takes a gripping look at how legal sports betting transformed fandom, blurred the lines between sport and profit, and reshaped a generation raised on the thrill to bet.
