There have been several attempts at working this angle and I have seen some work ok and seen others not make it to the break. A few years ago I tried to bet the favorite in a series from the first game (min -150) and double up if they lost. Thinking that they wouldn't get swept I put a large portion of my BR at risk when they lost the first one or two games, especially if they were heavy favorites. Well that season didn't last very long for me when several favorites got swept.
So I will try a different approach that doesn't put my BR at such a risk. I figure that many managers will probably lay off some after winning the first two games and the other team will be more motivated to not get swept. Also, I should be playing more plus money games in this scenario which should be profitable.
So here we go.....
