    Should I fukkin make this bet?

    $2,500 on Pistons ML @+925. The payout would be $23,125. Spurs without Parker, Neal, Jackson, and Diaw so they're short guys but still obviously more talented than the Pistons and are at home. I'm 20% in but need someone to talk me out of it before I shit myself.

    Before I talk you out of it, what's your standard unit? If it's $2,500 go ahead and make the bet. If its closer to $100, what the fuk are you thinking? Just bet $100 to win close to a G.

    My standard bet is around $200 but I'm up over $4,000 in the past month or so (not all my bets were $200 each), so I had a glimpse of risk taking. $23,000? The shit I could do with that. Now if I don't take it, I'm gonna kill myself if they win.

    I don't think the Spurs lose at home twice to trash in this short of a span, that said, throw $200 on it if you think they got a chance.

    If they lost 50% of games he was out. How many games were multiple players out? How many were road vs home games? What was the average power ranking of teams that beat the spurs? These are the things I would want to know ahead of time. GL whatever you choose.

    Let's be real, you're going to roll the dice.

    Can any of us talk you out of it? Hopefully, but you sound a little compulsive, which makes me think you've already made the bet and are wanting to guage what we think the Pistons chances are.

    Don't worry, you're not the first to bet huge and then dig for information. GL man. Hope it hits.

    I have not made the bet. I just think there is so much uncertainty in what to expect from the Spurs tonight because of how much their offense revolved around Parker and +925 (+1025 in reduced juice at 5dimes) seems very high given the circumstances IMO.

    GL man, but I agree with others. Look for a smaller score if you haven't bet it yet and just put a few units on it if you want to gamble. The odds are moving in the wrong direction in this one. I see it at over +$1025 at 5 dimes according to the SBRodds site... movement the wrong way would make me really keep this a smaller for fun bet.

    Either way, BOL!

    Alright I've decided to go against it. I wasn't seeking attention, I was 100% thinking about throwing down large just because of that insane payout and the uncertainty surrounding the Spurs. Anyways, good luck with everyone betting on this game tonight, should be interesting to watch. I'm definitely hoping the Spurs win now.

    I remember Spurs were missing their biggest names and still crushed the Bulls :/
