He may be only 8 years old, but already little Mikey Richardson is taking after his dear ‘ol dad, Mickey, CEO of the oldest established North American bookmaker online today, Bookmaker.com.  Well sort of.  Little Mickey can actually pick NFL games it seems.  HIS DAD CAN'T.

"I'm in a handicapping contest with Joe Apricina at Sportforumpicks.com," Mickey Senior told Gambling911.com.  "Anyway I have not been picking them well so Sunday morning I asked little Mikey to pick the games for me-I have witness in the office that watched him make the picks."

And finally some winners.....Little Mikey went 6-2.

355 San Diego -13.5 500
363 New Eng -4 500
339 Oakland +15 200
344 Indy -6.5 1000
360 Az +3 ev 500
345 Philly -4.5 500
350 Washington +9.5 500
362 NYG +1.5 500

"Can't do worse (that you)," one poster commented. 

The 8 year old Mikey not only knows how to make picks, he is also an aspiring entrepreneur it seems.

"He is mad that I missed punch Oakland for only 200-should have been 500--," his dad tells us.  "He was riding me all last night during the AZ game about it."
