It seemed like a sure win at the time. Right before the game I thought about putting 125 on the St. Mary at +475 to take down that bet and in case I won with St.Mary I'd be up 93 or down 25. Instead looking like I'll be down $505!

You're ok, Zags win this one.

But like Covers said - Don't lay big ML's. Too much juice, books take too big. Never win long term with it ESPECIALLY in CBB.

You took it because it seemed like such an EASY play. . . there is no such thing and now you are probably sweating because you are way overextended on this one play. $500 will get ya 5 $100 spread plays. Save it for those.

Any advice guys? Should I let the 505 to win 100 ride?

Or Maybe take St. Mary +9 in the second half to risk 550 to win 500?

I'd be essentially losing 450 if Zaga wins or break even if St.Mary holds off.

I'm thinking ride it out with Mills out, but yeah this was a terrible bet.

Let it go. You can't get out now.

If you put $550 on St. Marys you have essentially $1050 to win $0.
