FFA Wagering Thread: THERE HE IS!@! (18 Viewers)

I'm not sure it's possible to put how much money I put on one game and end up only $17 ahead. Yes, as of now I have won $17 on the game tonight after putting up an unreal amount. Bets still pending like clear gatorade and fishnet stockings :bag: . I guess I'm fortunate. If Gronk catches that last TD I don't wanna add up how much I win, but it's a lot.

Shutting it down til next year, good luck degenerates.

Every year you do the same ridiculous #### and bet 500 props and get vigged to death. This isn't that surprising.

I did a roi of over 11% on the SB 2 yrs ago. If the Pats win the game I probably roi 9% this year. A lot of my bets were very good, I don't get vigged to death on these games.I put the most money I've ever bet on one side tonight and still managed to break even, I consider that a heck of a success. :confused:

OK seriously - who did Eli thank first.
He didn't thank anybody in the interview. He won a new Corvette for winning the MVP. After the interview was over Manning was walking away and Dan Patrick was saying Eli, you'll need the keys, Eli here are the keys. Then Eli gets the keys and tells Dan Patrick thank you (twice).
 
Who else had First Score = Safety? :banned:
I want to know the odds on that too plz.
Gotta check with MP.
As soon as that saftey hit, the only thing I could think of was "Damn, MP must've just soaked his pants"
Sportsbook took a $200 bet at +7500 (15k). MGM Grand paid 50k on a 1k ticket at 50-1. Overall, I guarantee that books came out ahead on the particular prop by a good margin.

whoever bet this for $200 is an idiot. I wouldn't have even put raidernation's money on safety first score of the game...
 
Just made my yearly post super bowl withdrawal from sportsbook (a winning football year, hard to think).

Anyone want to set the line on the amount of times they cancel the withdrawal on me?

 
Discuss. I'm thinking Lions at 20/1. No reason to think this team won't get better, worth the odds.

Really like the Lions in 2012. Stafford has shown he's the real deal. Throws to Megatron, Burleson, Pettigrew, et al. RB situation to monitor, but I feel between Best, LeShoure, and Smith the nail this down. Could potentially have a really solid D in 2012. I don't know, really like the Lions next season.

Preseason odds are terrible. I got the giants at 25/1 and the broncos :bag: at 120/1 after regular season was over. Unless the lions are top two in NFC, you would likely be able to get them for the same or better price, after knowing they made the playoffs.

You might be right on point on this. Being I like the Lions, might put a small % play on it for now to lock in 20/1. I gotta figure LV is feeling the burn of NY futures and massive SB action, and just want cash yesterday from current/new clients, thus the release of NFL futures this quickly.

Did not notice, with concentrating on the SB and all. :thumbup:
 
I'm not sure it's possible to put how much money I put on one game and end up only $17 ahead. Yes, as of now I have won $17 on the game tonight after putting up an unreal amount. Bets still pending like clear gatorade and fishnet stockings :bag: . I guess I'm fortunate. If Gronk catches that last TD I don't wanna add up how much I win, but it's a lot. Shutting it down til next year, good luck degenerates.
+$9311 for me :excited: Took me a while to settle down last night. Thinking about the game this morning so many things went right for me with the manningham catch, the welker drop :jawdrop: and bradshaw scoring a TD(NFC -3 future bet)I was also able to get down at least 5k on gronk props and the only one I lost on him was first catch u9.5 yds +125With another little lumpy due in June gonna take the money and stash it in savings so the Mrs. can take some time off work to be with the baby.

:thumbup: Nicely done. Had a great night as well on a much lesser scale, but turned my 2 accounts from -20 something units to +2 units total. Happy even though I almost let the love for the Giants psych myself out.Not sure what's next - March Madness OVERS is what I'm looking forward, some golf matchup plays and French Open.

If I bet march madness it'll be like 1/10 of my normal bet....I get so amped up for that tourney I always overbet and get murdered. Since I started betting seriously March has been my worst month every single year.
 
If any of you want some extra action on Pats, let me know. Unreal action on Giants. Heaviest we have been on a side in a Super Bowl since I have worked this book. Just email me if interested.
I'm loading up more on Giants the more I drink. You guys going to move the juice? I would
Well I wish we could. Only downside to moving the book online was not being able to adjust the lines. That is out of our control. Not sure who they scrape lines from but our line needs to be at Pats -2.5 three days ago.
I've also been unable to figure this out. Wherever you pull lines from they're sharp and FAST, really fast.
 
anyone catch these:

That's insane, good stuff. Mind me asking how much you put into play (pm me if you want)?
 
How were the gatorade bath wagers graded? I had bovada grade my clear bet a push. I have a local book that I bet it won't be yellow -240 grade as pending still. Any idea? I didn't even see the gatorade dump.

I'd guess 14-16k in play, somewhere in there, about 6k on the game, 1k on the total, 2k on NE TT u29.5 and the rest on props. Some sites even where I'd been limited on props allowed me full limit bets for the superbowl.

how are you getting it out of SB? that's the part I'm not looking forward to.They were lightening fast with a recent wire transfer, but for some reason I got whacked by a pretty hefty fee.
 
So what are we doing about SB withdrawls. What are the best methods again for US? I could try to arb it off to a local in chunks, but I don't have enough cash if I hit the wrong side more than twice.

 
You guys mind if I blog in here about quitting chewing tobacco? I need somewhere to vent my frustrations.

Thanks in advance

Congrats!

Bank wire, your results may vary but I've heard a few people getting SB wires within 2-3 days of request.

I have $0 in sportsbook.com, I was tempted to reload last week when they had the 25% bonus but it wasn't worth the hassle.

Congrats to you! I'm attacking the daily fantasy sites for baseball this year. Baseball handicapping takes very little time and there's nothing else going on so I'm figuring it's finally time to give these legal sites a shot.
