                                Amazing run!

                                Is the goal still 8k? with 2 more plays at -105 you would reach about 11.5k.. you could play 2 games at -159 and still have the 8k dream 😉

                                Btw you probably will have limit issues for the next plays..

                                  Just call them the fuckers, they will take the bet over the phone for whatever you want way more often.

                                    Here's what we're doing. First bet is $10. I'll bet that plus whatever I win until I win ten games in a row. Assuming -105 odds the whole way, I'll be somewhere around 8k if I ever get there. I'll try to keep things exciting and take some dogs on the moneyline or some other plus money bets because why not.
                                    Anyone else GREATLY saddened they haven't been tailing this 😖😖😖. Amazing job though and continued good luck

                                                  Okay, so here's the deal. Heritage will not raise my bet limits. I will not be able to bet the entire amount of $3019.73 on just one game. So, in order to get all the money in play, I've got a few options.

                                                  1) I could split the amount between two games. If I go one and one, we'll call it a push as I'd only be losing the juice. I don't particularly like this option as it'll only work for this bet. If I win, I'd need to split it into three or four bets next time. Gets messy. I should just delete all this typing. I'm not doing this.

                                                  2) I thiiiiink I could put 2k on a single play and then play the remaining 1k+ in a parlay with that same game and pair it with something "safe", like the Warriors ML tonight vs Philly. I'm just not 100% sure if Heritage will be cool with this. They may view it as me evading their limits. Anyone have any experience here? Plus I'd be pretty bummed out if the main play hit and the heavy favorite coughed it up hahaha.

                                                  3) I could pick three games and do a round robin, which results in three two game parlays. This kills it if I hit all three, but still turns a profit if I go 2-1.

                                                  Thoughts? The other thing I could do is just bet the 2k limit and know that if I lose, this thread at least makes a thousand bucks. But at this point, that seems pretty anticlimactic.

                                                    Just a thought: cap the games the best you can, and choose the best pick without worrying about the limits and such. The best option would be to just fund another book, but what do I know. So of the things you listed I liked the last one, after 3). Good luck.

                                                          Finding another book is such a hassle. I've gotta deposit, which means having the card declined, calling my bank, doing it again, and doing the whole thing several times because they usually have $500 deposit limits, plus they'll be skeptical of any large deposits followed by the entire amount being bet from a brand new customer. It's also not like I'm able to transfer Heritage money to another book. Now I'm taking money out of my bank account. Too annoying for a thread that's supposed to be fun.

                                                          Eh, it's not a humility issue. It's a goal that I set, and I want to see it through. Even if that means getting creative.

                                                            If you wanna keep the thread fun, just don't worry about the limits and such. Sorry about Heritage not wanting to potentially pay you, but you'll be a legend regardless of how much you were betting or if you were betting at all. Anyways, this stuff might bring about bad vibes. My advice: do whatever you feel like doing. Hell, take a break if you want. But lots of people will be tailing your next picks, no pressure.

                                                              What if you bet the max and then put the rest on an early live line for the same game? Although you'd have to hope the same line or better popped up early.

It's definitely been fun to watch unfold and is a win regardless of what you decide to do.
