Thank god ....that I landed some on the OVER of the REDS-GIANTS game to level off the losses !!
One more run for either the REDS or GIANTS and I'm fair again.
I mean this is that game when one usually finds themselves on the other side .... mourning a bad wager ....and doing the root-cause-analysis as to whether it was
a) a BAIT line by the bookies that had everyone suckered in hook line and sinker
or
b) just one of those days when a has-been-performing team suddenly under-performs due to some freak dance of the neurons in the heads of the players
or
c) for that very same factor of unexplainable variance that people don't go ALL-IN and bet their first born ...in their wagers even when they have scrutinized their picks to the greatest detail...
Its actually very refreshing to find myself on the winning side of this freak match.
I'm sure you have seen other freak games like these:
One hockey game from last season comes to my mind....The Flyers routed the Canucks pretty much in the last 1:30 minute of the game...sending some mean pucks.
the Canucks lost like a four goal lead in the span of 1:30 and must have felt like they were raped in broad day light at a busy crosswalk !!
I felt worse coz I had a ton of money on the Cancucks !!
