I had a Jokic/Luka/Mitchell/Fox parlay lose last week.

[Kblaze8855]

I wouldn’t say I do it because I have plenty of money it’s just for fun. I would make bets when I was broke. Just something extra to attach to enjoy it more. I’ve never had a problem though. I have a friend who does so I know not to involve him much. I recently took a woman to a casino and she blew her whole check just in the morning before check out. I’ve never been that type. Just ****ing around. Now…I will buy drinks for everybody but that’s not too expensive if you do it once. I tend to be with others who will reciprocate. And it’s not like I’m drinking at Club Liv.

ask for your question if a player is hurt during a game you just lose if he doesn’t get his numbers. If he doesn’t play, it’s voided. Like nothing was bet to begin with. I assume in a parlay that means you win what you would have won with the reduced payout for a smaller parlay, but I don’t remember it ever happening. I’m sure it does but I don’t bet enough to know.

This was nicely timed

[Real Men Wear Green]

My first thought was his career is over... but then it occurred to me that going to prison is a much bigger problem. His brother can likely get him a good lawyer but the background story is way too suspect. If he is offered a deal that doesn't get him locked up he should take it no matter what it is. His brother may cut him oft after it's all over but I bet he will at least do what he can to keep him out of jail.

[Kblaze8855]

Not sure how he could fix it except to intentionally stay below them even when given time. That’s pretty much point shaving. Intentionally not rebounding. Things like that. He’d have to be gone if they could prove he intentionally played poorly. Someone has to be the example and he’s the perfect nobody to give the death penalty. I just don’t know how you prove someone missed on purpose or isn’t rebounding or passing.

Well, someone in his circle would've had to make those bets, or he could have implicated himself in some recording and/or group chat.

He must have been in some deep shit before getting caught though. You'd think that his priority would have been to play hard and not miss any games in order to secure another NBA contract over this short term scheme bs that would have likely gotten him cut from the team and never signed again, even without getting caught for betting lol. His numbers this year actually aren't that bad for the amount of minutes played, could have probably stuck around the league another few years.

yeah, a parlay is tough. Even a parlay that is nothing but picking winners is tough. If it’s a five way parlay the Celtics will find a way to lose to the Pistons. The universe just wills it.

On individual bets I really don’t see how all the associates of top level players don’t win everything. I know it’s tracked to some extent and you have to have a few degrees of separation but if a friend of Luka is down on his luck and doesn’t want to ask for a straight hand out? What are the odds he can’t get his girlfriend’s cousin to put 2000 on Luka scoring over 30? Just give him the nod and wink.

Luka is scoring 30 any time he wants.

The leagues watch for weird betting patterns with insiders at the sport books but how rare would a Luka over be in and around Dallas?

I don’t know how they keep up with it.

Player parlays might work better then team winners or over/under parlay. Have to be conservative though for small ROI.

It’s already invalid, because they dropped Jokic points/assists to 21.5 and Leonards payout by 5. The minute by minute nature of these things is annoying. I don’t know if an injury report came out or what but I have to rebuild it to place it. I’m like 15 minutes from a draft Kings state and it actually can tell the difference so I’ll have to run over to NC(avoiding any Indian apparently).

Yesterday I did a 9 leg parlay on fanduels. The odds changed for all 9 things at once the moment I added them. The winning potential went down, forcing me to make changes. It's clear to me that they cheat. I suspect they use AI that alters odds automatically once it sees who is adding who their parlay. It's instantaneous.

It happened to me with d'lo 2 days ago. He was out so he became void. The winning potential dropped

[Kblaze8855]

Turns out beta north of $10,000 came flooding in on all this guys unders then he takes himself out of the game early with an eye injury. All his unders hit. It was noticed because it was the single biggest loss for DraftKings that day and it popped a red flag in the system. This Nobody had so many bets on his under it was the biggest loss of the day companywide.

He and whatever group put him up to this are ****ing idiots.

There are some really curious reactions by the Warriors that makes it looks like they were betting on the spread a few times but you can’t make it that clear with all the bets.

Somebody nobody ever heard of even having $10,000 bets on them should trigger an automatic investigation

Killing me Chef

legit never take a steph prop


he don’t care about any of that

[Kblaze8855]

I don’t need him to Care. I need them to make more than eight of his 22 shots goddamnit.

[FultzNationRISE]

I don’t need him to Care. I need them to make more than eight of his 22 shots goddamnit.

It was basically a must win game for them (if they wanna double their chances of playoff entry).

Gotta point that finger at yourself chief.

[Kblaze8855]

I knew they needed the win against a shit team, so I figured he would go crazy early. Would have won just under $1000. Granted I probably would’ve turned around and lost that trying to flip it to 10,000 but I maintain my outrage.

[Kblaze8855]

Have a couple Tonight hoping Embiid plays limited minutes, but gets a double double and Maxi put in work. My other one is just assuming Wembley wants to end the season on a high note and Jokic doesn’t care. I’ll win like 300 something. Just wanted to put something in on my way out of the DraftKings state to one that won’t let me bet.
