I don't understand the question. You put $5,000 on Villanova +2.5 and hope unc wins by one or two. Seems like a no brainer to me. For some reason, a couple guys are recommending you bet the Nova ml. Do not do this. Give yourself a chance to win everything.
What chance does he really have to middle? UNC had 2 games all year of 2 points or less and they lost both. So there was 0% chance this year but you think there's a chance? He is better off betting the ML where he'll win an extra $1,250 on $5k plus he doesn't have to pay $500 in juice. That's an extra $1,750 in his pocket. Do you really want to gamble that much money to middle?
If so, I'll take that bet. I'll take your $1,750 right now that it won't finish less than 2.5?
And I'm starting to believe Nova wins tonight as well, so I'd bet a bit more on them.

Yea , I'm lost on this one
Unless you bet less on Nova -4.5 than the 1500 ML
Maybe NC wins , you get the big one anyway

I'd much rather hedge close to even in these type of winner take all matches. If it was a best of 7 maybe I'd ride it but too many variables. $8,000 no matter who wins makes the game much easier to watch then $13k or $2k where I'm sweating UNC. Guaranteed money ALWAYS beats praying for hope money in my house.

Carolina looking good but still only lead by 5 at the half. End the game here so the man can get paid

Carolina would have to collapse to lose this one. Scoring at will the last 15 minutes of the first half

Again many of the public are too blind to see official rig all sports. Yes Villanova is playing ballz out, but combined with Refs not calling travels and fouls, it's sets them up very well to win.

I meant to say Freshman and Sophomores.
What an unreal shot there by Paige. Unreal. I'll never understand why teams do not foul when up 3? We see this shit all the time.

Because in no way form or fashion do you want Villanova to win the game. Because in reality if Nova wins you lose.............unless you hedge enough to win equal amounts on both sides. Who wants that?
YOU ALWAYS hedge enough on both sides. That way you don't give a shit who wins the game.
Unless you don't give a shit about the money or you're playing with other peoples money, WHY TAKE THE CHANCE? It's borderline irresponsible.

That was a tough position to be in. The person in the lead probably wins without picking the champion. Damn, not too many had Nova to win.

If people had the money , easy to bet 7500 the other side , he could have made around 7k regardless.
Not everyone has those kinds of funds to hedge.
I'm glad he won money , making money is what matters .
