Have had some fun this weekend with it.
When Ole Miss finishes off Louisville, i will win an 18 game parlay. Granted I picked most obvious/easy games but 18 parlay of any combination is no easy feat

Wonder how many would have lost money if under 3.5 Targeting calls in the first half was a bet during that ole miss game lol
No kidding. After the 2nd I sent my buddy a message and asked if he wanted to be on whether a 3rd player would also be ejected for targeting. Ridiculous.

None of them looked intentionally malicious - but the coaches gotta do a better job of drilling it in them that they can't lead with the crown of their helmet.

Also I believe they could have easily ejected both Louisville players on that one call. Both were illegal hits according to the targeting rules

Gambler's money has no home. Trust me: The VAST majority of people telling you they win all the time are lying. Those casinos aren't making fortunes by giving money away. All those sports books aren't competing for your business because they're losing. The house ALWAYS has the odds in their favor. If you never place your first bet you will be waaaaay ahead in life.

There is kind of an exception to the new on-line books right now. They are offering incredible deals (free money in the form on on-site credits) to grow their brands/gain market share. They are eventually going win, but in the mean time they are doing everything they can to get customers and make sure gamblers have money in their accounts to keep them interested.

As a side note, one if not several of these companies are going to make a fortune in the next few years. If you are looking for an investment opportunity, DraftKings(DKNG) FanDuel(PDYPF) BetMGM(MGM) etc... are probably pretty solid stocks. I own them.

Sounds kind of like the drug dealer giving samples until they get someone hooked!

I'm biased, but I was thinking the same thing. I don't know how you eject one without ejecting the other.
