    insights from BetMGM for the men’s NCAA Championship Game

    “Kansas is 4.5-point favorites in Monday’s championship game. The Jayhawks winning are the best result for BetMGM. The sportsbook is hoping North Carolina left it all on the court against Duke.” – Jason Scott, VP of Trading, BetMGM

    I love these clowns that think they’re going to lose everything we’re talking pennies for a casino as far as liability and sports

    It’s good drama and marketing

    I passed on unc +550 for 100 before the sweet 16. Bet them in parlay to reach the final 4 instead like a dumbass that lost because of Houston.

    It's just the split % of their betting numbers so far.

    They will release an updated version again tomorrow no doubt.

    Confused what is the supposed BS about it??

    I have a ticket on them at 170-1 made march 7th.
    Made it at bookmaker.

    It pays only only around 1k if I win..Not sure how to hedge.Either just play KU ML i guess or get ballsy and hope it drops to more manageable hedge during a Tv timeout or halftime.But If KU is rolling then there goes that.

    Thoughts?

    Two words
    Suh-weet

    I'm not a big fan of hedging.
    If I were to hedge that ticket though, I'd hedge it just to get your money back for the cost of the bet.

    UNC is on a magic carper ride, I'd leave it be.
    They can easily win this game.

    I'm referring to the MGM post.... Jason Scott statement. At that time.... we still had over 33 hours left to wager on the game. Money can come in anywhere.... it's ridiculous for MGM to make a statement like that. You can't estimate what will come in.
