Top Gambling News Stories for Saturday July 11, 2026

Today we had the early Wimbledon finals matches along with a marquee World Cup game between Norway and England, which will feature plenty of enticing goalscorer markets, though nothing quite as juicy as the goalscorer markets for both Harry Kane and Erling Haaland.  Already we saw massive traffic for this match overnight from across the globe.  Saturday morning we were seeing plenty of interest in the Rugby Unions National Championship games as well.   Sean Perry going off on Daniel Negreanu was the icing on the cake.

Sean Perry Drama Steals Some of the Thunder Away From World Cup

Saturday July 11, 2026 (1:45 pm EDT)

The bad blood between Sean Perry and Daniel Negreanu ("Kid Poker") has been building for several years and centers on accusations, reputation, and social media battles rather than a specific hand of poker.  This can be traced back to 2021 when high-stakes pro Daniel Colman publicly warned the poker community that he believed Sean Perry was a scammer.  Perry denied wrongdoing, but the allegations damaged his reputation.  Perry, whose live tournament winnings total greater than $6.8 million, has claimed that Negreanu helped amplify negative opinions about him within the poker community and turned other players against him. In 2025, things really got heated when Perry published text messages purportedly between him and Negreanu.  In this weekend's video, filmed at the World Series of Poker, Perry calls Negreanu "a piece of shit" while Negs is sitting at a nearby table.  That video continues to go viral.  Gambling911.com has appeared in 1,338 searches that include all types of variations of ""sean perry daniel.negreanu". 

 

As you can see, the Sean Perry article, despite not having the highest impression count, is the most popular in terms of overall audience intent and engagement during the past 24 hours.

McGregor vs. Holloway Rooting Interest Map and Latest Odds

Friday July 10, 2026 (10:30 pm EDT)

We never thought this day would come (ok, even 48 hours before the fight, we’re still a bit skeptical), but Conor McGregor is lined up for his first fight in five years.  Saturday will be exactly five years and one day since his last fight against Dustin Poirier. Unfortunately, there was a doctor’s stoppage in that fight due to a broken tibia and fibula suffered in Round 1.  Despite the extended absence, MMA fans across the United States want to see McGregor win and become a factor once again in the UFC. The marketing team at BetOnline.ag created an infomap based on geotagged X data over the last 30 days, which tracked tweets, hashtags and direct keyword phrases about who fans in the United States are rooting for in the fight between McGregor and Max Holloway.  For example, tweets containing phrases and hashtags such as "#TeamMcGregor”, "#TheNotorious”, “Max is going to win”,” etc. were used to compile the data.  More than 4.2 million tweets were collected and geo-analyzed in the study.
