    Minnesota +2500 to win BTT
    Sounds crazy, but might be worth a small wager. Given a Hummel-less Purdue, MSU's penchant for losing before the finals here and Ohio State's lack of depth, this is a wide-open tourney that might go to a deep sleeper.

    Gophers face Penn State first. Nittany Lions have been hot, but MIN should be able to get past them.

    Michigan State would be next. Coach Izzo never puts a big priority on the BTT.

    After that, who knows. I highly doubt chalk will prevail and they'd have to beat both Purdue and Ohio State.

    This is going to be a wild week, and MIN is motivated to make a serious NCAA push here. You never know.

      He's a great coach and they played a pretty tough pre-Big Ten schedule to get them prepared for this (Butler, Portland, Texas A&M and Miami Fla.). I just wish they had Nolen to make a serious run.

          Should have a decent chance against any team but OSU.

                Very hit-and-miss team. They beat Butler, Wisconsin, and Ohio State, but got beat by Michigan (twice), Indiana, and Portland.

                Could win the tournament, but could easily lose their opening round game. PSU is coming into this tournament with a lot of confidence (covered 5 of their last 6, lost to Minnesota twice by a combined 6 points).

                    At that price it is good value, but I don't see it happening.

                    Not the way they closed out the season.

                    Good luch though!

                      I will never forgive myself for not following my own advice here.

                      I even had the GD bet on the table, but didn't click confirm.

                            I went for it. I'm gonna hedge it though because I don't have much faith.

                              If you have the bankroll you can take Ohio St. ML for a dime.

                                No shit. On my card, I put down $10 to win $250 and backed away. I'd be able to lay about $100 on Ohio State right now and call it a day.

                                I've never been so pissed about bailing on a play in my life. +25fukking00.

                                    I've got Minnesota and Richmond futures. I won my North Texas, but lost UNLV today.

                                            Your best friend tomorrow. Two options...

                                            1) Take the guaranteed profit (throw about 17x the amount of the original wager on Ohio State ML) and make about 8 units.
                                            2) Let it ride!!!

                                            I vote for #2.

                                              Thanks for the post goblue. I'm half tempted to just let it ride out, but I might hedge if Ohio St. ML drops a bit.

                                                    I actually think Minny takes it today SU but when you have an opportunity to hedge on such a big payout, I always say take the guaranteed profit and move on to the next day. Not sure what he put on it, but even if he threw $100 he would be in order to win $2500 if he lets it ride but can hedge it with the Bucks ML currently sitting at -175 for about $1400 to win $800 and root for Minny to win $1100 profit or Bucks for a $700 profit, either way a good situation to be in with a great future play.

                                                      I'll probably throw a bit on Ohio St. ML in the morning when 5dimes has their reduced lines. I also anticipate people jumping on Minn in the early going.

                                                            I even had the GD bet on the table, but didn't click confirm.

                                                            There called balls man,use them.I'm only kidding.I know what your going through as I've had the same thing happen to me countless times so my advice just go with your gut instinct from now on and ask yourself why you were thinking about doing it in the first place,because you had a gut feeling that's why.Well for your sake I hope Minnesota doesn't win,but if they do,they do and life goes on.
