I don't leave guaranteed money out there and no I didn't place that much either.
Good luck man, and im truley glad you won that. With that said, people that POST bets with moneylines like that say ONE thing to me loudly. Theyre not betting logically. Theyre simply betting to "fluff" their record.
Especially in regards to someone that was down units, a play like this is SCREAMING youre trying to fluff your record and in no way you are betting that. ESPECIALLY somoene down units.
In real terms, if I was down $500 for the week, no way in hell anyone logically would chase that $500 with the Warriors today at -1500 to win $500. Thats the equivlent at what you did with betting a -950 favorite down units to win 16 units.
