Futures Bets

[Stinger92860]

Anyone sitting on a big future wager? I didn't jump on before the season started and shame on me. I guess we were as high as 125-1! I have been getting action down since we started 5-0, and have tickets for 33-1, 25-1, and now 10-1. Total risked so far is $165 to win $3090. Let's goooooo! Would love to not be doomed.

Mine was not big, but I did win the UConn to F4 bet, and I have UConn winning it all bet also, which pays 14-1. In addition if UConn wins Saturday I win my pool and about $2K, so all is good.

Jeff Anderson. We are 3-3 in games he officiated. He seems to hate Hurley.

I'm squashing my beef with O'Connell. Jeff Anderson is my least favorite official in the game.

Cha-ching.

How did you get 15:1 to make the Final Four on December 31 when we were 14-0? I thought we were down around 4-5:1 pretty soon after PK85.

That's insane.

You could hedge 5K on Miami +200.

If we lose, you've made 9.5K.

If we win, you could hedge another 10K on the championship game (I would expect +200 or so on the underdog). If we lose, you've made 14.5K. If we win, you've made 22.5K.

I bet $100 at 90-1 in October. $9,000.
Also had $100 at 40-1 in 2014.

Stop the hedge talk. Bad mojo. The only hedge I know is the hemlock hedge in my backyard.

No bad mojo. The post is littered with hypotheticals and conditionals.

My point is this dude has like 15-20K in equity in that position and can lock in a 5-figure win (real money to some people!) by cashing in some of it.

I know. It’s good advice. I’m just joking around.

I placed it 11/26. Not sure why Bovada had December 31 listed as the event date.

DO NOT HEDGE. Hold the line. SD State is a mid major and they are scared. Let get this money boys.

DK preliminary line is SDSU +280(!). You don't even have to spend a lot to hedge this and lock in a big payday.

Yeah I might have to throw like 1k on sdsu moneyline. I get 15k if UConn wins.

This would be a snap-bet of 4K on SDSU +280 for me. Congrats on your >10K win!

Why would you torch 4k like that?

 

[XLCenterFan]

The money is not real. Legend status is real. We are taking this. Take your book for the max and double down.

 

[UC17]

I did 10 on us at +8000 pre-season when I was out of state, and 5 on SDSU @ +8500 pre-tournament. Can’t wait to lose that SDSU ticket!

Cashing in like 75% of your equity at zero risk is an amazing accomplishment.

I'm not hedging $1...money isn't real...being the man is. 5/10/20 years from now...are you really going to care about the initial wager amount? Or will the better story be that you knew that this team was filthy and that we were going to ship this, and you didn't flinch? Right.

Thank you!! Yeah I may have to do this.

What’s your bet right now?

 

[XLCenterFan]

What’s your bet right now?

it's all relevant....you might have more money than me...I have 165 to win 3590...I could ask you what's your income and net worth?...my point is lets get this...losing what we wagered won't change lives, and neither will the win...TEAM NO HEDGE

Lmao obviously I wouldn’t be hedging if I only had that much on the line… I got 500 to win 16,500.

I have the following parlay:

Argentina (World Cup)
Georgia (NCAAF)
KC Chiefs (NFL)
UConn men
Boston Celtics

$25 bet @ +107,519 = $26,904.91

Go Celts!
