Radio Host Sid Rosenberg Allegedly Owes Over $44k to Online Sportsbook

A representative of a small Costa Rican-based online sportsbook, 1BetVegas.com, is contending that WQAM-560 AM afternoon host Sid Rosenberg owes the shop $44,500 in gambling debts

Frank Soviero says Rosenberg refuses to make good on the debts after losing dozens of credit wagers on the NFL, MLB, WNBA, NHL and College Football over a two week span.  Soviero has been attempting to contact the radio station in which Rosenberg works. 

 “We can’t sue Sid since what we do is illegal in the United States,” Soviero said recently at Gulfstream Park. “I’ve tried everything. He comes up with 100 bucks here and there, and he gives me a big hug.

“It ticks me off because I talked my boss into giving Sid a few chances. And I’ve seen [my boss] do things when he gets mad.”

The colorful radio host was recently suspended over a six week period due to his alleged gambling at another website. 

After Rosenberg allegedly agreed to be placed on a$900-per-month payment plan, he only paid for the first month then wept about not having enough money to take his children to Disneyland.

 “I mean Sid no harm, but if he had won $20,000, he’d have expected, and received, the money on the spot.”
