    I think I hit the worst beat of all time

    I took a halftime Bulls point total. They were at 71, needed them to get to 114.5 parlayed with an in-game lock(which wins) for 7u. Payout is 1770, the first side hits easily.

    The Bulls hit 109 with 9 minutes left, 114 with 6 minutes left.

    I end up losing the bet.


    I am always on the ridiculous side of these bets. Why can't I be on the under side of something ridiculous like this?

    Wow that is insane. Totally did not realize that they didn't score for like the last 6 minutes. That's why I just hate playing totals sometimes cuz teams start blowing out the other team and don't care to keep up the offensive output.

    NBA is strange. If someone woulda said that a team would go scoreless for the last 6 minutes of a game and still win by 33 I'd say thats utterly impossible.

    Sorry for the bad beat... must have been agonizing to watch. 12 games tomorrow though, another day to try to get it again

    God I shutter at this still...I luckily was on a roll last week so this wasnt the worst but I really can't believe this. I saw them at 109 with 9 minutes left and I'm thinking great hit. I didnt even check the final score until the morning.

    this is the nature of sports

    only reason it stands out here is because it happened at the tail end of the game

    but most of the time bad beats go unrecognized because they happen much earlier, or throughout the entire the game

    Bro bro no points in 6 minutes is ridiculous, dont feed me that ... I lost some big units on something that will happen maybe once a year... at least let me vent.

    Going in on a two teamer and six teamer(both for small amounts). I can't stomach putting another large number on a single game that type of thing makes you want to break something.

    Really? No points for 6 mins? wow. Reminds me when I needed the cavs/pacers to score 17 points for the 4th qtr a few years back and they scored 16. 11-5 qtr! I had 1k on it and it totally flipped my season and I took a downward spiral after that. Take a few days off and regroup.

    How do u not score in the last 6 mins?!? LOL. Sometimes you feel like teams are out to get YOU!! Had that feeling many a times. Lately I've lost more bets by a point or half point than I have in the entire time ive been gambling.

    I needed Bulls to score 1 more basket as well. It is rare for a team not to score for the final 6 minutes, but they couldn't care less with 40 points lead, so I will blame Hawks instead.

    Interesting, I made a small play on the 2nd half under, saw the final this morning and thought to myself that I had made an excellent pick. Maybe I just got really lucky.

    Honestly that loss on the 114 is maybe the worst beat I have ever heard of. Ever. Sorry.
