Now they are a 3-pt dog. He can bet the other way and potentially win both bets...

akm0404 Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Man, that is so freakin' sweet. Very, very good day to be this guy, and can you imagine watching the game knowing that you were a 50k lock and freerolling another 100k? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KD in CA Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 I totally agree that he needs to hedge that bet somehow. Assuming he has the cash or means of borrowing to lay the hedge bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slyng1 Posted October 11, 2010 Author Share Posted October 11, 2010 Wonder if this guy hedged. If not, he pushed the last game and didn't win his $100k... Moneyline on the Eagles would have been a good hedge, since they were underdogs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BUFFALOTONE Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 So he pushed, the guy still hit a 13 team parlay, I bet he isn't pissed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure you only win if you get them all right... So pushing makes his $100,000 ticket worth zero...but I'm not an expert on what the Delaware rules are. (EDIT: someone told me that his ticket may revert to a 14-game parlay and would still pay him $50,000, if true that's good for him...) BTW, nice avatar...
