"Bettor Days with Mike Greenberg" Season 2 Debuts Today Exclusively on ESPN+

All episodes of season two of Bettor Days with Mike Greenberg, a character-driven reenactment show bringing to life the true stories of unforgettable gambling adventures, are available to stream now, exclusively on ESPN+. The series uses in-depth interviews and dramatic, often comedic, reenactments to relive the wildest, saddest, funniest betting tales - and their unexpected repercussions.

"There is no shortage of emotional highs and lows once you start digging into the world of sports betting," said Greenberg. "We had so much fun hearing from fans during season one of the show, and this next collection of episodes offers many crazy, often hilarious, sometimes touching, often hard-to-believe tales of people who took a gamble and ended up with a terrific story."

Season Two - Episode Line Up:

· Episode 1 - Monday Night Odyssey: Rob, a die-hard football fan and avid ancient history enthusiast, settles in with his new puppy for a Monday Night Football match-up between the Bears and Rams.

· Episode 2 - Hip-Check Blues: Angie, a St. Louis native, lives for her hometown teams. While on a work trip to Vegas she places a few bets on her beloved Cardinals and St. Louis Blues. Her long shot wagers take her on a season long journey through ups, downs, and even hip surgery.
