I think I’m safe.

should we be concerned pdub? haha

No.
These are like max five dollar bets, many of them no sweat bets.
I won 6.43 tonight…Balty covered and then some.
I won 11 or so the other night v Yale.
If the Ravens go 1-1 I’ll win 9.20.

I won huge off bonus bets when Maine opened up and I withdrew everything I won ( over 3k ) but the extra bonuses that came from that ( 50 bucks or so ). If I loose these bonuses ( I’ll be up if KU wins tomorrow and Balty goes 1-1 ) I’ll be done.

No worrying needed.

When McCaffrey broke the tackle I’m sure that dude was loosing it.

Was more concerned with his knee being down....

P.S. I have to assume Draft Kings will get a big run on people betting that (multiple players scoring TD Parlay) option this week.

I referred a friend last week and staked him on a 50 bet for 2 50 dollar bonus bets. I told him full ML on KUBB ( v Yale ) but he got confused and went KUFB which I’m less confident in.

He won 12 bucks last night, withdrew his 62, and we each got 50 dollar bonuses which we split up all in different ways favoring UNC. UNC RB anytime TD, 110 rushing, over 59 points biggest payout.

What a difference a day makes.

I got Guttered last night.
Was 4-0 in a 5 team parlay and had the Mavs -3.5.
Mavs were winning 69-54 at the half. Were winning by 8 going in to the 4th. Were up 10 with 7:10 left in the game. 5:40 left in the game up 9.
After that, in a stretch of about 4 minutes, Luka turnover, Luka turnover, Luka missed shot, Luka missed shot, Luka missed layup, Luka missed 3. Now Cavs UP 111-105. Mavs lost by 3.

Loosing the last leg is brutal,
Imagine if Mccaffrey hadn’t scored for that guy.

Yep.
Also realized on the 26th I was 6-0 and lost on 7 team teaser because the Kings laid a giant turd against the Blazers.
Shit happens.

As far as the McCaffrey TD.....
I know Fan Duel offers you a cash out.
Does Draft Kings? I assume they do. To each their own but I definitely would have cashed out and then bet on McCaffrey to score a TD. Or if they don't have a cash out, I would have tried to put some kind of hedge on it, Not sure how you bet on someone to NOT score a TD.

Yesterday, I used a throwaway $5 bonus bet on some gimmicky, aggregate O/U on all four bowl games.

After three of the four games, the remaining amount of points to hit right on the number...was exactly the O/U line for the final game of the four.

How DO they keep the lights on.

The math people will tell you that cashing out is a sucker move if a hedge is available.

Yea, definitely wouldn't cash out, but I don't think your standard books do alt anytime TD's.
Might be tough to hedge that.

I didn’t follow the whole scenario, but I just popped open DK. I can live-bet anytime TDs for the Clemson/UK game that’s on right now.

Post by **pdub** » Fri Dec 29, 2023 12:38 pm

Alt.
Meaning, you DON'T score a TD during the game.

Post by **jfish26** » Fri Dec 29, 2023 12:40 pm

Ah gotcha. I guess you could try to sort of get there by live-betting an under…but that’s probably inefficient.

Post by **pdub** » Fri Dec 29, 2023 12:59 pm

You could live hedge other players getting TDs on SFs drive or you can hedge team results—TD, FG or punt…but yes, probably nothing you can do effectively but pray.
