Steelers...125/1

[teamrichie]

I know, I know, I'm being a blowhard about getting that line but getting a value that good in hindsight is a once in a lifetime event. Got it week 4 after Roth had a start and looked pretty good. Anyway..good luck to all.

backup wagers...pats 7/1 and Eagles 12/1
richie
the snows great come on up

 

[Dr.Pepper]

thats a great line!!! wow

 

[Dante]

good luck teamrichie id hedge if they play the colts

 

[EveryGamblersDream]

What book did you play it at?

 

[Skyweasel]

Yes you are a blowhard.. I posted a sheet with all the NFL futures at 12 books on OGD last summer, Steelers were 40-1 everywhere, preseason. You're telling us that once they were 3-1 during the season the odds had tripled?? Bullshit.

 

[teamrichie]

If you feel froggy...leap

Hey Skyweasel.....Care to wager? Its not that big a deal but when you are called a liar but someone who knows nothing about you, its on.

You will probably say its not worth your time or money to wager on this but your tone was sooooo confident i thought you might want to make some extra cash cause you know i'm lying.

How much would you like to bet sir????arty:

 

[neel]

Just prove it richie. No internet sportsbook had that line. No way in hell. Or someone should be out of a job.

Let me guess... your drunk uncle gave you that line on a $2 bet.

 

[teamrichie]

Neel...i hope you guys are not taking this wrong cause there is no ill will intended...as its us against them.

The "No there was not 125/1 available" is +450...want some action

 

[Halifax]

Beat'cha ...


I got 1250/1 on Pittsburgh on Christmas Day.

And a buddy of mine found the same bet with odds of +1.5Google on New Year's Eve.

I just copied and pasted it from Bluegrass. a $10 bet on this is pretty weak but the issue wasn't the cash but the odds.
I know this really proves nothing so i am going to try to get a line history from Bluegrass.

now its 3 people calling me a liar. I have been a very low key poster here, never flaming. Never spouting bullsht. I dont get how you can just out and out call someone a liar.:WTF:

Thought I'd also copy my other 2 for the hell of it

 

[krackman]

I think some owe you an apology.

BTW nice bet.

 

[valdosta]

....

Wouldn't make much sense you not telling the truth over a $10 bet. I don;t really keep up with football lines but if you were going to lie I imagine you would say you bet1k at +12500:drink: In other words, I believe you, good bet

I'm not the one bragging I got a line 3x what everyone else had. If you need to puff your chest in a forum about your bets to feel good, do so. If you need to make outlandish claims, provide more proof than an online betting slip, which is pointless. I can make a betting slip showing I have the Steelers 200-1 , bfd.
Every book had that line between 35-1 and 50-1, averaging about 40-1. Why did your book have it 3x that?

 

[TheGeneral+]

Good luck teamrichie.

 

[WharfRat+]

damn, those are some good odds. 12-1 on philly on Dec 22?

I see it, but don't believe it.

 

[krackman]

With the book in question I wouldnt doubt for a second what he posted.

 

[jjgold]

I cannot see Pitt winning this thing. I like Pats or Indy to win it all.

Good Luck though

 

[teamrichie]

I did not get the Eagles and Patriots odds on dec 22. Bluegrass switched servers before the start of the nfl season. When they switched they "lost" those tickets....which were written in the summer. I called bluegrass and justin fixed the problem by re-writing the ticket. Earlier in this forum I actually thanked bluegrass and justin for fixing the problem so quickly. Sometimes you can be a cherry-picker in the small books.

I appreciate all the kind words.

definition of Hater....Someone who is so unhappy with their own life that they have to pick at others. They actually enjoy seeing others doing badly so they can fell better about themself. When they see success in others they think that something wasn't fair or the other person achieved success by cheating.:toast: cheers general
