No evidence of notability - lots of external links which all seem to be about the "hittingpaydirt" service, the only one to mention the name seems to be unreliable source Reddit. Pam D  07:29, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete Agree with the nominator no indication of notability, seems like just a way for person to get his name out. -- VViking Talk Edits 14:06, 3 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete. Google search turns up very little, if anything, in the way of reliable, independent sources. The soruces that are provided in the article are either only passing mentions (if that), statistics, or are just plainly unreliable. I should also mention that the article creator has been blocked for disruptive editing. JudgeRM   (talk to me)  14:58, 3 August 2016 (UTC)

Comment Yes, Pam, I am newer here. Are you saying my opinion is less valued because of that? Looks like we have an ego problem going around Wiki. (JamesSPR (talk) 22:47, 11 August 2016 (UTC))  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Comment added sources include LA Times, Las Vegas Review Journal, SmartVoter, among others. Over 12 reputable sources now listed with more to follow. (Avento55 (talk) 22:01, 8 August 2016 (UTC))
 * DO NOT DELETE Disagree with nominator. Sources are verifiable.  As far as media print, doesn't get much more reputable than the Times and Review Journal.(Paininthegain (talk) 23:16, 9 August 2016 (UTC))

 * Delete - Per WP:GNG. There doesn't seem to exist any secondary reliable sources that are independent of the subject that cover the article subject in-depth nor establish notability for this person. My search came back with nothing, and none of the sources listed in the article can be considered reliable either. Therefore, I believe that WP:GNG is definitely not established or met, and this article should be deleted.  ~Oshwah~  (talk) (contribs)   23:21, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
 * ""DISAGREE"" Over a dozen sources verify notability. Agree with "Paininthegain", if your debate is the Times and Review Journal are not reputable, you need to do you research.  They are two of USA's largest prints. (Avento55 (talk) 19:18, 10 August 2016 (UTC))

 * DISAGREE DO NOT DELETE I took the time to review each link and found several to be reliable sources.  I'm from the west coast (CA, USA) and AJ is a big name in the sports gambling industry.  I know sports gambling isn't the biggest genre out there right now but I believe the article serves a purpose.  (JamesSPR (talk) 16:30, 11 August 2016 (UTC))

 * Delete -- a minor personality in the sports betting space. I cannot find RS on this subject, and the article appears to be promotional in nature. K.e.coffman (talk) 00:40, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
 * Note -- the objecting editor has attempted to strike out the "delete" votes: diff. K.e.coffman (talk) 18:45, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
 * These painfully-obvious socks are, as they say, painfully obvious. There's no need to strike their comments, nor to quadruple their height by saying why you struck them.  That's just antagonizing, and the closing admin, whoever it turns out to be, is not a dolt.New guy: The way to save this article kept is by presenting nontrivial, reliable sources (nothing in the article is both), not by creating new accounts and making the same baseless assertions over and over.  You're not fooling anybody and are only hurting your own case. —Cryptic 04:06, 14 August 2016 (UTC)
