Part of the struggle of sports betting is being hit with luck and variance. Injuries, missed field goals reffing turnoversplay and countless other facets can swing an game that is handicapped to a reduction from a triumph.
Pick out the conclusion of a weeks Cardinals-49ers game, for instance. San Fran was up 30-26 with time fast running out and Cardinals (+9.5) bettors were easily covering. Until…
It can be recency bias but 69% of the viewers whod Cardinals +9.5 stated it was the worst beat they have ever experienced.
This??unfortunate turn of events??prompted me to choose to Twitter to hear about a number of the other beats I decided to feature some of those best/worst stories and that sports endured.
Tom Brady was -112 odds. He has thrown 14 this season and has a minumum of one touchdown in seven??of the Patriots 10 games played up to now. Leave Belichick with it , however, to find cute with play-calling and screw fantasy players and unlucky prop bettors equally.
Melvin Gordon with a big day against the Chiefs was being looked at by bettors. The strategy should have been easy, restrict Rivers passing game and then run the ball from the teams worst defense. That didnt happen.
This game struck on a couple of people and they were hit by it in different directions, included. Id these two teams chose to put a joint zero points in the third quarter and 35 in the fourth to leave the game UNDER with an agonizing field objective and OVER 62.
And for people who had been holding a +10.5 ticket, then it turned into a terrible beat of bad beats.
Viewing it is as gross as reading it out loud.
Ohio State is one of just three groups in each one of college football with an 8-2 ATS listing. Adding them to any ticket is a bet that is good ? Not for this fella, that missed out on a 7-team parlay because Ohio State was bashful one single point.
As there were several breaks and big wins, it was not all bad, however.??
Theres always somebody on the other end of the spectrum that won a wager theyd no business while poor beats tend to get attention.
Have a look at this man, who flipped FIVE DOLLARS to $63,000. Unreal.
