*** Official Flying Stupidity Wagering thread ***

[JeffDime]

Very nice. Most Jersey books moved Grace to +5000.

[Daly]

Just when I think I'm out, William Hill (of all people) pull me back in. Most books have Finau 12-1 - 14-1. This bloke has it at 16-1. If they wanted to tempt me to donate another nickel in pursuit of Tony's win, mission accomplished. In all seriousness, this is the perfect type of tournament for Finau to beak through with every one focusing on next week. Weak field. Fading Jordan and Scottie here. Tony didn't play well last week, but should be fresh for this week and his numbers have all and all been very good the Last few months

Valero
Finau (William Hill) $500 16-1
B Grace $150 66-1 (Always listen to Daly)

Ana Ins
My girl, J Ko $777 10-1 She played well over the weekend. Inbee just too good thurday and Friday.


Godspeed

Little lesson in counterparty risk here. I have a new sunwager out that I can get 300/27000 on. I’m “only” taking 100/9000.

I’m fairly sure it would be imposible to get this guy to cough up 27K in the first month.

After doing some digging and finding out it went off at +5000 or worse it just gives this guy more Ammo to say “fuck you it was a bad line”.

Grace May very well miss the cut and we can talk about how stupid a bet it was. That said look at the caliber of golfer they have listed from 50-1 and down and tell me Grace, who just won a tournament less than a month ago, is 90-1?

I like him at 60-1. 90-1 is a great price.

Got some other longish shot action down.

Last minute (my internet has been down):

Portland vs. Detroit - Over 221.5

[Dan Druff]

Here's another, for 4:35pm PDT:

Houston at Brooklyn - Under 229

Wall out, Wood is playing

[Dan Druff]

I'm monitoring the Suns/Bulls situation. LaVine may not play, and Coby White is also questionable. If LaVine doesn't play, I'm probably firing on the Suns, because the Bulls will likely be pretty awful.

[Dan Druff]

Not a great start on my two picks. The Houston under has been a disaster in the 1st, and the Portland over saw only 103 in the first half, though it's a very close game, so fouling crap in the 4th has a chance to save this one, or even OT.

LaVine and White are out.

Phoenix -8 vs. Chicago

[Dan Druff]

Portland over hit, though it gave me a small scare. Needed just 2 points to hit with 1:45 left. Lock, right? Took another minute for scoring to happen.

Final total 225.



Houston scoring has slowed down a lot and it's right on pace for the total, so this one is 50/50.

[Dan Druff]

9 points rained quickly during trash time, but then only 2 more scored in the final 47s, and I squeak by in the Houston under, in a 228-point affair.

I move to 15-3 in my last 18

Go Phoenix!

[Dan Druff]

Looks like I'm not going to cover Phoenix. They had a 14-point lead in the 4th and let a shorthanded Chicago team come back within 3.

Now it's a 5 point game, Bulls ball, with 32s left. Unless fouling BS takes it to 8-9, I'm going to lose this one. I'll be thrilled with a tie.

[Dan Druff]

Well, I had a nice streak going, but I had to lose at some point. Phoenix didn't cover. Still went 2-1, and I'm now 15-4 in my last 19.

Let's focus on some MLB.

I have 2 picks today (so far). Remember these start early:

Texas (Gibson) +140 at Kansas City (Keller)
Philadelphia (Nola) -121 vs. Atlanta (Fried)

[Dan Druff]

Was about to brag about my Rangers pick after that top of the 1st, but...

Are you ever gonna learn that Royals games are never over until they are over?

[Dan Druff]

Nice day for the MLB dogs...

Toronto beat the Yankees, Detroit beat Cleveland's Bieber, and the Pirates are up 5-2 on the Cubs.

Too bad I didn't have any of these. Now I just need another to it -- the Rangers.

[Dan Druff]

How do you shut down that Braves lineup for 6 innings and give up a HR to Pablo Sandoval?!

Ugh.

2-2 tie in Philly

Also, Rangers trying to run up the score again, bases loaded no out.

And yet they have the same amount of titles in the last 10, 20, 30, & 40 seasons. And spent billions less on payroll.

And yet they're a failteam and not worth watching most seasons.

[Dan Druff]

8-7 in the 3rd in the Rangers/Royals game.

Anyone have over 14 in first 3 innings?
