Well, it certainly almost happened in the USC/Nebraska game (I think that was the game) - which was sort of my point. I just bet $10 on Eric Cole to win the PGA Championship (pays $2500). Doesn't mean I think it's going to happen or statistics show it will happen.
Almost don't pay. We'll see how it does next season, but I would be surprised if it ever approaches 100 to 1.
Yeah - I get the late to the party futures bets. Until it gets down to maybe the last 3 games, they are terrible bets. The 5 and 10 throwaways for me are like scratch off tickets - of which I've never purchased a single one. Press enter, see what happens. It's like a fun tax w/ HR for me.
A good approach is often to split your bet on spread and ML (80/20 ish?). For spreads under +3, just go straight ML.
The “steal” and missed shot was more of a rebound in the paint where the Toledo player started to secure it, got stripped, and the Houston player went right up with it. Houston couldn’t run out the clock after the offensive rebound, there was about a 5 second difference. The three was a couple of feet behind the arc.

Betonline has been posting those games at the top of their football page. Not sure I feel that good about it. Taking the morality part out, I don't know if this is a good idea from a public perception standpoint. I think a lot of people are already concerned about the rapid proliferation of sports betting and this probably makes it look worse. Oh yeah, and I find Dave Mason to be a bit of a tool.
Online sports betting has trickled down to high school football
Even with low-level betting caps, this has raised corruption concerns over game-fixing.
Have to post an article if it references Tony from 5D
Agree that PSU should be a few points higher and would expect it to move that way. I think the Texas number is about right, but feels high and I can see ASU taking money.
The only dog I took was a small IU ml bet, and only b/c they've been so good to me. Home field in these 4 games was worth a lot more than a FG. I had all 3 favorites yesterday (TX at -13.5), and live bet both PSU and Tosu like the proverbial monkey on crack.
Sorry, I'm too busy capping if that Taylor Swift abducted by aliens is a +EV play at +2200.
Are you betting several of the best candidates at plus money? Betting both the yes and no at plus money?
It's not something I play regularly (or have this year)...but in the past, when I've played it, I was just basically playing anything that I could find (or more accurately, people pointed out to me) that would beat the Pinny no-vig line. More than anything, it's often been playing bigger favorites that might be -800 at Pinnacle (and -550 on their no-vig), but could be found at -350 elsewhere...those types of things.
It's best thing about Bowl Season (and hopefully why this system hangs around for a while in some form). Hard work and research is rewarded, and ridiculous CLV opportunities are hanging out there.
Michigan has a bunch of opt outs and Bama potential transfers seem to indicate they are playing. I think Bama may actually show up for this one.
Tricky one on the under. Both teams do have some key offensive pieces out. Iowa unders have been one of my most profitable plays over the past few years, but they have been a solid over team this year. 7-3 in their last 10. Fortunately, I got off the train this year when Brian Ferentz left.
On Hard Rock, the ML is down to +100. I got +275 on the ML/Under parlay.
I already bet them draw/no bet at -118 (basically a spread of 0). I was also considering under 2.75 goals.
Yeah, I was seeing the same thing, especially with no Bruno. I stayed off the under and glad I did so far.
I took the tip and bet Newcastle O 2.5 goals at +325. I found it on tv, but it's in spanish. Even if it doesn't come in, thanks LaJolla.
