Re: ***Forcaleb's NFL betting thread***
It looks like it's similar to FanDuel (not sports betting), which is cool. I have no problem depositing if there's other rubes that want to play. I don't see any contests created, so I'll make one for this week and try it out and see if anyone joins.Abe Froman wrote: ↑Fri Sep 29, 2017 9:39 pmYeah, please don't bet more than the minimum. It should work, but it's set up by a company and runs through PayPal. I can't test it since I'm the owner account, so... I need guinea pigs. I'll get you your money back if it's fucked up in some way. It really should work fine though. Remember you have to register with the site to use it though. Feel free to play for free all you want. I know if I were in your shoes, I probably would be pretty cautious about betting, but it is PayPal that runs that part. Just remember that. You have all the protections PayPal brings with any PayPal purchase you've ever made. I've had to use it before, it definitely works.ForCaleb wrote: ↑Fri Sep 29, 2017 9:34 pmI'll check it out!Abe Froman wrote: ↑Fri Sep 29, 2017 9:10 pm Seriously though, if a few of you would just do a cheap bet of like $2 or whatever the minimum is, I would be forever grateful.

Chiefs cover point spread and total against Washington on otherwise-meaningless fumble return on the last play of the game
3
BAD BEAT.
Washington tried a last-ditch lateral play against the Chiefs on Monday Night Football, attempting to work upfield in impossible fashion to score a winning touchdown.
That obviously didn’t happen, because these things do not ever work. But what did happen was Washington fumbling and Kansas City’s Justin Houston scooping the ball up, then running it into the end zone for a totally meaningless touchdown.
But it wasn’t actually meaningless it all, obviously, which is why this blog post exists. The Chiefs settled as about 6.5-point favorites. They led by three before that last play, and the touchdown covered the spread. It also got the total points scored to 49, surpassing an over/under that was either 47.5 or 48, depending on the sportsbook.
This is the second-best sports beat of the last few years, in my opinion. The only one I’ve liked nearly as much was this thing the Grizzlies did to the Knicks last season:
That is brutal. I adore it.

Re: ***Forcaleb's NFL betting thread***
That finish left me shocked! I'm NEVER on the good end of these types of finishes until last night. I was one of the lucky ones that had the Chiefs -7 and took the OVER 47.5. I still can't believe it!weimy froob wrote: ↑Tue Oct 03, 2017 10:45 am Chiefs cover point spread and total against Washington on otherwise-meaningless fumble return on the last play of the game

In addition, I had Travis Kelce on prop bets of over 5.5 catches, 67.5 yards, and an anytime touchdown!
My good fortune last night has prompted me to take a flier on the Twins tonight. Not expecting them to pull it out, but after last night, ya never know! Twins +236 currently!

Re: ***Forcaleb's NFL betting thread***
it doesn't get any luckier than that. i was thinking about gamblers like you and those on the opposite end of the bet as houston scored that touchdown. here's some more comments from that one. and congratulations.Bogey Bob wrote: ↑Tue Oct 03, 2017 1:43 pmThat finish left me shocked!

Redskins-Chiefs ends in one of the worst gambling beats in history
The game which looked like a lock ended 29-20 Chiefs over Redskins. That's a Chiefs -7 cover and the over in one useless garbage time play. This is why gamblers have heart attacks.

Caleb you should probably quit gambling. You confirmed suck at poker and now sports betting. At this point you have a problem.

Justin Houston’s late TD in Chiefs game was worth $100,000 to one gambler
The last-play defensive touchdown caused an approximately $350,000 swing against the house at Las Vegas sportsbook operator CG Technology, according to vice president of risk Jason Simbal, who added that $100,000 of that loss came from one big bet on the Chiefs -7.

Nice. I was on the Jets, Vikes and Lions M/L. Just picked the wrong underdogs.
