    Discuss biggest underdog winner you’ve won
    I’m not much of a dog bettor
    I will take points if betting underdog

    Anyone hit big on underdog ML?
    Anyone bet against Rousy or Tyson for a big payday?

    I need some inspirational stories

          UCLA down 27 to Texas A&M last year , think it was 44-17
          Something telling me A&M was going through motion , terrible D , just thought they had it won , thought UCLA wasn't done .
          Took Bruins Live +$2500
          They comeback and won 45-44 with like 10 seconds left

            A lot. Wasn't just a hail mary though I actually told others he had a real shot at winning the race. Think he closed at 80-1.
            Several posters here actually tailed and hit it good too

                        I never bet the ML on my dog plays. Agree it feels like burning money, and then every time one wins I get pissed. Had one tonight that won SU in college basketball. Didn’t have the ML, only the points. In the long run I bet it’s burning money.

                            Can’t remember mine really. I’d guess that it was probably Trump to win the Presidency. I’m not an underdog better so chances are it was my highest ever. What were the odds on that one anyway? I definitely made a pretty penny on that. Wish I put more on it. That kept me in the game for a while.

                              Trump opened up about 70-1 on his announcement to run. stayed 70-1 about for a long time. then started to go down when the media was giving him so much attention.........then when it was evident that he had a chance to be the nominee it went down to about 6-1

                              the week ahead of the election he was 3-1 i believe. also at about an hour after the polls closed and hillary looked good Trump was about 20-1 again for about 15 minutes. then he started winning states and it was 1-1 then he won florida and he was then a huge favorite and it was over. but i never took him at 20-1 live because cnn was so happy hillary was winning i thought it was over

                                    i had Trump also. You reminded me. Nice little score. I didn’t have the confidence to bet him to win it all

                                      This year I threw a flier on the Cardinals ML @ Green Bay. I honestly did not think it would hit.

                                        Patriots +1250 live when they were down 28-3

                                        thats the one that made them cap my live limit.

                                        earlier that week I hit Atlanta hawks +1250 @ Houston. bizarre to hit two of those in less than a week.

                                                  Took some tennis guy the other day, was against a 1 seed I think... $10 on +700. Don't know if that's the highest, as I *try* (but lately fail) to stick to in-game.. so certainly not the most profit but that was a big dog that hit.

                                                      I had a parlay with Howard bearing UNLV and UTSA beating Baylor in the first week of 2017. $100 on that parlay paid out $4.2 million, for in case you’re not aware.

                                                      Unfortunately I accidentally threw that ticket in the garbage. The day after the games, I went to the local landfill, but couldn’t find the ticket. No matter how hard I searched.

                                                                    But I was making up taking that parlay, for in case you couldn’t figure that out.

                                                                      Back in 2013, Rafa Nadal lost in the first round of Wimbledon, he had a knee injury. His odds to win the US Open went up to 9.50.

                                                                      I placed $500, and never hedged my bet. The final was jawdropping, never felt like this in my life for a bet. I mean those who remember the final know Rafa Nadal had no business winning the 3rd set...

                                                                      So I won circa $4000, unfortunately lost all a few months later.
