Final leg of Torture Teaser at Skybook $20 to pay me $30,000

[ClayHenry]

49ers Over 48 guys

wish me luck!!!!


I called Skybook and offered to settle at $15,000 with the score 49ers 6-0 11:00 minutes left in the 1st Qtr and they said good luck with your pick.


I hope it hits!!!

GL Clay... I was going to get down on the UNDER in that game but missed the kickoff time. I think it will be for the best.

What else did you have in the torture teaser, and how many pts is it in the NFL... 7?

Best of luck Clay

 

[Fishhead]

Nice score if it hits!!

 

[FunkSoulBrother]

13 points early

 

[ClayHenry]

here are the plays that i played in my Torture Teaser

NCAA
Texas Tech Over 81.5
Kent St. +15
Ok St. Under 54
Oklahoma Under 58
Pitt Under 48

NFL

Rams -5.5
Bucs -13
49ers Over 48

$20 pays $100,000

I pushed on the Pitt total of 48, sucks because had I placed my bet 2 days sooner I would have got it at 51, fortunately though ties push and revert to the next lower payout

thus

$20=$30,000 if it hits


I would have accept $15,000 do you think Skybook would have been dumb to accept that with the score 6-0 11 minutes left in the first Qtr.????

 

[ClayHenry]

just hoping for 24 pts. a piece baby!!!


why did the 49ers go for 2???

botched snap I'm guessing

 

[FunkSoulBrother]

The way this is going maybe you should have given Skybook a number to call you back at...

 

[BillDozer]

this is noice!
You planning on requesting payout immediately if you win?

 

[Dante]

WOW Clay....what was the amount of games you had to pick for that??

 

[ClayHenry]

Bill- no idea the biggest payout I've ever received is for like $1000.

 

[ClayHenry]

Dante- 8 team reverse teaser -7 pts.

 

[Dante]

WOW GL MAN!!!!!

 

[ClayHenry]

back to the old drawing board


wish i'd played ole miss under, La Tech Over, Pitt -14 or USC -17 instead, oh well, I guess I'll just have to take another crack at it next week.


BTW- does anyone think getting paid would be a problem should one of these goof bets happen to hit.....

 

[TheGeneral+]

Sorry Clay. Gotta give the book props too for holding their bet.

 

[Dante]

well it was worth the 20$ risk

 

[ClayHenry]

dante- definately, I think if everyone played just one of these each week I bet we'd probably have 2 or 3 people hit the $100,000 by the end of the season. I especially like the college totals with these plays.

I hated to post the thread topic like I did due to the jinx factor, but I just had to post something in case it happened to hit I wanted to have some extra proof in case getting paid ever came into question.

 

[FunkSoulBrother]

sorry clay, hope you don't feel my excitedness jinxed you. I just like cheering for a big score. Hell, I cheered for Dell Dude almost every thread he made.

 

[FunkSoulBrother]

btw that game was the worst display of kicking I've ever seen.

I would have never played with them again had they accepted the offer. Anyone that mathematically challenged will get killed in the long run.

This bet had fair odds of +250 or so (taking 7 the worst of it on an NFL total), making a fair price say $8,500 or so, for a 30K payout with one leg left. It could possibly have been a smidgen higher due to the early score but not much.

Sorry it didn't hit. Hope you hit one soon.
