    I got well over 50% better odds than him, He bet over 500 times more than I did. I blew it. They were my favorite team and first future, but I was content with my good odds and spread money around with a few other teams that I had to bet bigger in order to get an okay return.

    Not only that, he could probably find a way to write this off as a business expense, since he can claim it's advertising for his casino.

    Ya, he could write it off, but that doesn't mean IRS would buy it if they ever audited. him.

    I wonder if the Sister Jean hoopla will get in his way of that 7 figure payoff....

    Wow - Guy needs 1 more win for a 7 figure payoff. Mich now sits at +7.....Wonder if the Nugget will offer him something like an early buyout.

    -300 for Nova. Not a lot of good hedge opportunities.
    Like Statman said, I would definitely inquire about a buy out for the ticket.

    Must be worth a couple hundo I would think.

    This actually ended up as better odds than parlaying by game. Was 40-1 pretty standard for Mich?
