Tournament Wagering Thread

Very happy to get MU in a Calcutta for 156 in which the pot was about 4500.

Hell awaits you

I'll own up to my (probably) ill-advised parlay. I disregarded a few of my usual practices for betting, but DK was offering a bonus bet if I lost, so what the hell.

MU -10.5
OMax - 8+ points
Oso - 5+ points
Stevie - 2+ points
TyKo - 8+ assists
Kam - 2+ three pointers
Oso - 5+ rebounds

+600

I'm counting on MU pressing the size advantage and TyKo hitting OMax and Oso for a few of those assists. But I'm probably most worried about the assists and the spread. Fingers crossed.

From FD:

Mich State first half ML
Miami/Drake alternate over 139.5
Parlay at +157

2 Team RR, all lines from FD:
Mich St first half -3.5 (+150)
Pitt ML +180
FD alternate +17.5 (+182)
Drake/Miami alternate over 151.5 (+164)

[Dish]

Everything about the USC/MSU first half was blah (pushed on the ML, over hit by .5, USC's late run).

[Dish]

MU opens -3.5 vs MSU.

[nyg]

I made two very large bets with FD.

MU (-10.5). That's a winner
Kentucky (-4.5). I think the Cooley rumors are going to affect the team. 

So, I am a push at least.

[Babybluejeans]

Degenerate, you're kicking ass. I took the Pitt ML and cashed it. Who do you like in the late games?

I'm leaning:

Kent State ML
Kentucky -4.5
Montana St. +8.5
FD seems awfully high at +23.5 so will put 1/2 unit on that

[Dish]

Providence/Kentucky under 143 on DK.

Montana State/Kansas State under 140 on DK.

First half unders in both too.

Whatever is wrong with the hoop in Greensboro, they're still trying to fix it, only one team can warmup at a time. Clearly impacted Pitt/ISU as that particular rim apparently isn't perfectly leveled.

[Dish]

From FD:

SDSU ML
Alternate under 151.5 Mizzou/Princeton

+123 Parlay (not sexy, but plus money)

[1SE]

Any place taking bets for 2024? Seems like this would be the best time to buy MU low.

[Dish]

SGP +125 on DK
Arkansas +6.5
Over 133.5

Kansas State +1.5 may be the easiest money I'll ever make

[BM1090]

Was at a casino Thursday-Sunday. Ended up +1000 after betting about $200 per unit. But it took a hot day Sunday ending with a UConn/Creighton/TCU parlay to stay out of the red.

Tonight I have KSU ML and UConn -3.5. We'll see how these go before I decide on the later games, but betting for mostly entertainment tonight.

Any strong feelings on the two late games? I like UCLA. Don't have a strong lean either way on TENN/FAU

I hope so. Game is long from over.

I picked Gonzaga to the Final Four because it seems like this is the 1st year in however long where people just kinda didn't talk about them.

I have no feel for a wager though.

Tennessee -5.5 and Gonzaga +1.5

[BM1090]

Tennessee -5.5 and Gonzaga +1.5

I just don't trust this Gonzaga team. Higher ceiling than UCLA IMO, especially without Clark, but more likely to have a dud performance too.

Edit - I'll likely get in on Tennessee. Spread is dropping. Will grab at 4.5.

[StillAWarrior]

I parlayed that with Joey having two 3-pointers.

[Dish]

SGP +125 on DK
Arkansas +6.5
Over 133.5

I don't think this one's going to cash.

Great move - hes shot the ball remarkably well the last month or so

[BM1090]

Took FAU +2 and UConn -2.5 tonight.

[Hards Alumni]

Had Creighton +3000 sitting around since September.  Gonna need a drink.

Hope you hedged some of that today - easy to do, especially when your team is the favorite.

Nope, rode it into the dirt.
