Making our Pockets Fat again AGAIN PT 2 - Official Gambling Thread

[tjax03]

Alright, need your guys opinions here.

-As I've mentioned before, if the Bruins win the Stanley Cup, I'll make about $20,000.

-If the Celtics win the Eastern Conference, I'm looking at about $7,000.

-If the Celtics win the NBA Championship, that would be $6,700

-If the Bruins win the Stanley Cup and the Celtics win the Eastern Conference, that would be another $20,000.


That is WITHOUT hedging any bets. This is where I am looking to see what you guys would do. I have two open parlays remaining as well. One is at $1,685 and needs one more win to finish it, and the other is $710 with one more win to finish it. Those numbers are what they would be if it were just a two team parlay, so roughly doubling that total is what I would make for hitting on those open parlays. I had another one open the other night, but it didn't hit.

I also have $4,411 in my account on top of that.



So, here is what I am looking to figure out. The Bruins play, I can't really do anything about. They are down 2-1 in the series, but they can definitely pull it out. If they somehow win this series, I do believe they will make the Stanley Cup Finals, and I would 100% make a very large hedge in that situation.

The Celtics winning the Eastern Conference is the play I am trying to figure out. Would you guys bet $2,000 or so on the Raptors here as a hedge? I ask that as IF the Celtics beat the Raptors, then I'll automatically be able to hedge during the Eastern Conference Finals, depending on what the ML would be for the series. Or, should I just let the Celtics v.s. Raptors play out and hope for the best?

Man if the bruins or Celtics get that close I'm hedging 100%.

ALWAYS come away with something.

Yea winning the main ticket would be the best but be smart about it. You can guarantee yourself money by just hedging the other side. Always some money is better than no money.



Didnt you hedge that $15k bet last year?

Obviously if they were to win this round, I am hedging. The question was about if I should start hedging now, but after running the numbers, I'm better off taking my chances and waiting to see the outcome of both of the series.


And, yes, I did hedge on the bet last year. I bet on 49ers before the game as a hedge, and then I used open parlays to live bet on them as well to hedge. So, the $15,000 was probably closer to a net of $12,000-$13,000, but still great.

Agreed. It's quick and I've only had an issue one time, and it had to do with it needing to send my BTC to a new address. Very easy though. And, I don't have to give a foreign check to a bank.

This almost made me not want to gamble lol

What kind of value would you get hedging right now with them being down in the series? Right now Id just hedge to whatever money you put in on it at least try to get that back should they lose. But if they win this series im all in on the other side. Id be on lock for some guaranteed money

Put $200 down on Naomi Osaka (+400) to win the US Open. She's finally played herself into form and the field is depleted enough to where I like those odds.

 

[LurkMoar]

Damn I’m actually stuck on this one breh @BucciMane celtics/raps gonna go 7 games


I actually think the celts can beat the raptors but I don’t see them beating the bucks that’s the problem. They have no big men for giannis

hard to say

that little pause gave guys time to heal up, momentum a team may have had might be gone now.

It feels like a mini reset during the playoffs.

Im was going Houston but now its no telling even with Westbrook back

Three of these dogs were involved in 1 run games, and two went to extra innings. Lost them all.

Damn, Mets got Gsellmann on the mound and the Yankees are still dogs.
