Sorry if I knew I needed just one goal in one game I wouldn’t have traded in 5k for the chance at 800.

If the cash out was say 50k? Then probably.

Seems like a good time to take Celtics ML at +145.

Indy has to cool off, right?

[pdub]

I hope not.
I went for Pacers to cover tonight.

Probably smart.

Celtics not turned up to 100%.

Thanks Boston.

You at least covered my losses on Celtics -7.

[pdub]

Indy covers.
Plus I had Derrick White 12 and over 212.
Celts win and I win—great night.

[RainbowsandUnicorns]

I had a profitable evening.
Won tiny on the Celts, Stars, and Cardinals (all Ws for a total of about $25) and then hit a nice Superfecta ($514). Hit some other decent horse bets too.

The amount you win on 10 cent bets seems insane to me.

More than a 10 cent bet. I "keyed" the 2 horse over all the other horses. Cost me $21.
So basically
#2 to win with either 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 to come in 2nd, either 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, to come in 3rd, and either 1, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 to come in 4th.
Came in 2/4/5/9
2 was 7/2 odds
4 was 7/1 odds
5 was a big long shot at 69/1 odds
9 was 9/5 odds

Kind of sucks 9 came in 4th because it would have paid more if 1, 6, 7, or 8 came in 4th.

SUCKS I can't bet on/against Illinois college teams.

Northwestern LAX was up 6-0 on BC in the first quarter. When BC scored their 1st goal I went to take them with the money line (figured it had to be +350 or better) and realized I couldn't bet on them because they are playing Northwestern - an Illinois college team.
Now 8-6 at the half and obviously the momentum is with BC.
BC has out played NU by a LOT since NU went up 6-0.
I'm really hoping Northwestern wins now or I'm going to be doubly upset if they lose.

Ok, here are two perfect examples of getting suckered in to 10 cent crack and taking advantage of 10 cent crack.

1st race at Saratoga (harness) I keyed a 10 cent superfecta for a $12 total wager. I hit it. It paid $2.85. In other words, I lost $9.15 despite "winning" the superfecta.

1st race at Horseshoe (thoroughbred) I keyed a 10 cent superfecta for a $12 total wager. I hit it. It paid $174.59. In other words, I won $162.59.


Other nice wins today....

4th race at Greyville. 60 cent exacta key 5 and 9 with every horse. Cost me $10.80 and paid $53.16
6th, 7th, and 8th 50 cent race pick 3 at Greyville. Cost me $24. It paid $132.10.

[pdub]

Thanks again Pacers!
But also go Celts!

[jfish26]

Celts game last night put me at 704% of the sole deposit I've made. Good stuff.

[pdub]

Went in on Wolves and Anthony tonight.

[RainbowsandUnicorns]

Dumb fuck me loved the Brewers and took them +1.5 runs at -137 because I felt Imanaga was due to get rocked - and he did - but I took them in a parlay with the Bravos (down 5-1) and the Guardians (up 2-1). I'm going to get Guttered.
No clue why I didn't bet the Brewers separate - other than I am a dumb fuck.

On the flip side, I have the Oilers -137 and they were down 2-0. They have come back and tied it 2-2 but I fully expect them to lose because..... Guttered.

[pdub]

Oilers came back for you.

I had Royals ML, under 9 runs, under 1.5 runs 1st inning boosted. Lugo is killing it—he’s been great to tail.

[RainbowsandUnicorns]

Yes, Oilers came back big.
Good for you with the Royals!
I had yet to place a wager this season on the Royals but I just did right now for fucks sake. I just bet against them. Bet a whopping $4.32 (to bring my account to an "even" number) Twins -130.
I hope I lose for Royals fan's sake/s.

[DeletedUser]

Boston -6.5 for game 1. Seems like a lot.

[pdub]

It really does.
If I was choosing today, i'd take that Dallas line.

[jfish26]

Hit a 10-legger French Open parlay yesterday. Go team.
