Hey yisman..going to have retract my 200 point offer for the Cavs/Celtics series. Didn't realize the SBR book offered series prices. Gotta go with the +355 odds rather than the even money I was getting with you.

Bro are you welching?

He made the offer and I accepted. The series hasn't even started yet so I think it's ok that I take the 3.5 to 1 odds rather than even money. Sorry.

**AnotherLoan** · 04-29-10, 03:46 PM

If the series had started already then yes I would commit to the bet.

True but he won't "abuse" anyone.

But you did say he was a role player.

And I said I agreed he wasn't a role player. He's a little better.

1.to cheat by failing to pay a gambling debt

Didn't know I failed to pay a gambling debt.

The guy was going to put points on the Celtics so he would win regardless. He was taking advantage of me. Glad I realized it before the series started.

**vitalogist** · 04-29-10, 04:30 PM

NBA is so rigged... They could let the C's win, just to give Lebron an out to go to NY (where they need him to be), but then again, maybe Cleveland wins it all finally, and he leaves under the notion of "I've accomplished all I can accomplish in Cleveland..." I'm staying away....

**Sawyer** · 04-29-10, 04:31 PM

I really can't see Old Three beating Lebron and Co.
Cavs All The Way!

GL Everyone!

**jureslo** · 04-29-10, 04:35 PM

Cavs in 5.

**zogdog** · 04-29-10, 04:36 PM

If this year's Cavs team played the 2008 Celtics team, the series would go 7 and the Cavs would win. However, the Celtics are two years older, two years slower, and simply no where near the level they were at in 2008. LeBron will give Pierce fits on both ends and the Cavs will win easily. Cavs in 5, taking games 1, 2, 4, and 5.

**Nomocino** · 04-29-10, 04:38 PM

Like the Celts getting 71/2 in game 1 but not to win it much less the series

**johnson** · 04-29-10, 04:48 PM

If LeBron plays Celtics ain't winning. Simple as that.

Exactly. I made the offer you accepted it. You can't back out of the deal after the fact.

Completely false.

I wasn't aware SBR offered series prices. The only things I've seen in the SBR Book are single game bets, not series prices or futures stuff. I did not place any bet on the Celtics, and I would not have anyway, because I do not think they will win this series. I also had no idea what the series price was in the first place.

I believed I had a 200 point bet on the Cavs, because I bet with you and I agreed.

There was no "taking advantage". If you thought I was taking advantage of you, why did you agree?

We both agreed to a deal and now you're trying to weasel your way out of it?

**yisman** · 05-01-10, 10:25 PM

Cleveland won Game 1. Considering we made a deal, I expect you to live up to your end of it if Cleveland wins the series.

**JohnnyD4916** · 05-01-10, 10:32 PM

Thanks Boston +7

Way to Close it out.

You must have missed the other thread where I said I didn't know SBR was offering series prices so I said I wouldn't be betting with you. I'd rather get +355 than even money on a bet. Sorry bud.

Here's the post. Said it before the series started.

No matter how the fukk you turn this game around, the cavs WONT lose this game . The question is if they can cover, but I think so

**AnotherLoan** · 05-03-10, 11:55 AM

Just now read your replies. I guarantee you would have never responded to this thread if Celtics won Game 1.

That's called welching on a bet.

We agreed to a bet, and it doesn't matter when you back out, you're a welcher. A deal is a deal.

I agreed because I didn't know SBR offered series prices. I went and looked and saw the +355 so of course I'd rather take those odds. If the Celtics won Game 1 you wouldn't have responded to the thread.

**AnotherLoan** · 05-03-10, 11:58 AM

If it's that big of a deal to you then I'll pay the 200 but I know this thread would be a lot shorter if the Celtics won because you would have never responded.

not good enough. now you have a bet at even money and +355. deal with it.

if you bet a game +100 at bookmaker.... then a few hours...or a day later you saw +125 at betjamaica.. do you think you could leave an email for bookmaker saying sorry, i found a better line. our bet is off.

grow up. be a man of your word.

Completely false. I thought I had a bet. If the Celtics won, I would've paid you, because I agreed to my end and you agreed to your end.

I wasn't even online before Game 1 started. I went away from the Internet thinking I had a points bet on the series. This was the only bet I placed on any series in this year's NBA playoffs, BTW.

Then I come back Saturday night and see you trying to claim you backed out.

It's not like Cleveland has a big advantage. They barely won Game 1 at home.

If you want to know whether I honor my bets, ask around. I've made a lot of bets on this forum and honored every one of them.

**PorkyPig** · 05-03-10, 12:48 PM

Boston may win a game or two but no chance for them to win the series.
