Lost 5 figures a few times. Heat ml vs bulls streak ender. Federer match where he was -10000. Come to mind off the top of my head. Sure there are a few more.

So you have a friend that bets 5 figures yet you can't afford to fly to Vegas...

And my threads get moved to the Saloon...

Nick, it's not the money, it's how he lost.

Iifold, do you only hang out with people who are within your income circle? You know what that makes you?

boeing power · 10-09-13, 12:27 AM

That's not the first time your friend took it in the ass.

Nick Papageorgio · 10-09-13, 12:35 AM

Seaweed it couldn't have been -10000. I lost a 10k to 1 shot. Tell your buddy to man up, if he can't take the pain don't gamble.

Seaweed · 10-09-13, 12:42 AM

Nick, to bet 10000 to 1 you have to be insane.

Ghenghis Kahn · 10-09-13, 12:48 AM

who the fukk bets 5 figures on grand salamis?

you are reaching pal.

Lazy-Man · 10-09-13, 12:48 AM

Ohio State vs Northwestern. Nuff said

Nick Papageorgio · 10-09-13, 12:49 AM

Weeder your buddy doesn't understand the value of a dollar

face · 10-09-13, 12:52 AM

seaweed you lost thirty bucks big deal

No coincidences · 10-09-13, 12:52 AM

Do the five figures include the numbers to the right of the dot? Because you should lose that bet on principle alone, putting at least $10,000 on a fvcking hockey salami.

Albundy33 · 10-09-13, 01:18 AM

The robin Ventura walk off grand slam vs the braves ! I had over 7.5 runs he never touched home plate counted as a single and they won 4-3!

Seaweed · 10-09-13, 01:30 AM

I agree stupid bet, i feel bad for him. Still bad beat.

9-2 huh?

Rigged as SBR poker, obviously

Weeder you have 10 minutes to pick a number tween 1-92

cankid · 10-09-13, 01:42 AM

no offense to your buddy but I think the +7 on NorthWestern I had and many others had is a worse beat.

I'm going to go with 91 on this one.

thehoorse · 10-09-13, 01:51 AM

I agree with what others have said... the Ohio State vs Northwestern beat was worse.

UNREAL

Guy's obviously CLUTCH

CONGRATS... you just won 91 pts!... now go and rub it in to your friend and tell him you're a WINNER and he's one BIG FAT:

ChuckyTheGoat · 10-09-13, 02:34 AM

If it was last leg of a parlay, I could see it. But -110 type of bet, 50/50. Fu-ck him, he's no better than the rest of us.

jjgold · 10-09-13, 05:22 AM

It was a massive bed beat but in sports betting you never know

He has to regroup now and not do anything stupid physically or sexually

floridagolfer · 10-09-13, 06:02 AM

Sorry, but that's not even in the top 100 of the worse bad beats.

LT Profits · 10-09-13, 06:11 AM

I am sure everybody in the forum has had at least one loss close to this in their lifetime, but yeah, this is pretty bad losing by an NHL game going Over 9. Jeesh!!

I bet 5 dollars on the Grand Salami in the NHL Under 44.5 goals. After 7 games the total was at 35. I just had one more game that had to have 9 goals or less. What happened? Sharks just won 9-2 to push the total over and make me lose. I am going insane right now and I might never be the same person. Anyone else suffer this defeat tonight like me?

Translation

LT Profits · 10-09-13, 06:15 AM

For those of you saying Northwestern, I am not so sure. Think about it, what happens more often: A fluky game ending play changing the ATS outcome of a game or double-digits scored in an NHL game? I don't think it is clear-cut.

Seto · 10-09-13, 06:16 AM

And yeah, this wasn't even that bad when you think about it. Over 7.5 on that game was +475, couldn't find 8.5 but say it was about +700. Losing a bet worth -110 when the other side was +700 live (which is pretty much what that was) is hardly that bad, it's like complaining about a team blowing a 10pt lead in the 4th in basketball which happens all the time.

I've already lost bets when the other side was +10000 live.

Yawn.

I see it more like an MLB team going to the bottom of the ninth with a nine-run lead.

Wow I thought you were one of the sharp guys here, evidently one of us is way off (possibly me).

The guy's hockey grand salami was under 44.5 goals -110 (i'm assuming -110, maybe -105 or -115 or whatever, not to mention the 5 figures is a near obvious airbet, can't imagine any book taking that kind of action on a grand salami).

Ultimately, his bet came down to needing the under 8.5 to cash in that particular game.

Are you honestly telling me you think that there are as many hockey games that go over 8.5 goals as there are times when a team that was -110 pre-game blows a 9 run lead in the bottom of the 9th? That's just madness. If a team goes into the bottom of the 9th with a 9 run lead, forget about a live line, le ML isn't even offered. Under 8.5 on an NHL game is worth about -1500 I would think. On the particular game he was talking about, the over 7.5 was +475, so I can't imagine the over 8.5 being worth more than about +700, which would make the under about -1000 to -1500 depending on what kind of book we're talking about.

That's hardly, hardly anywhere near qualifying for a worst beat of all time, everyone on here has lost on teams that were -1000 to -1500 live dozens of times I would think.

This is equivalent to a team blowing a 3 run lead in the bottom of the 9th at best.

It was more of an off-the-cuff comment dealing more with psychology. If you were in his position and this was the last game needed after all other results were known, how confident would you be. especially since I believe the posted total on this game was 5 and not the more common 5.5? I know the math says it was not that bad, but just the fact that it was the last game and happened in this particular game just has to sting a lot. Oh and he needed Under 9.5, not 8.5.
