Fishhead And His $2,640,000 Bet - Q&A

[rm18]

Fishhead makes points wager which are worth hundreds of $'s of real money so I would at least think he would make many $800 bets.


I think it is possible to get this bet down at 5d though you may have the line moved very far and have to bet a horrible #.

[InTheHole]

no

Come back to this thread when you hit -13.5's when they are -12.5's

would need a screenshot of some of these bets, otherwise it never happened

A couple college football props there i bet over 15 times you can just keep popping there if they reset or move the line.

if someone really wanted to bet 2.64 mill, they might authorize it IF the person doesn't put in the bet at game time.. he'd have to put in the play at least 1 hr prior so 5D can call up books like OLY, CRIS, and a few other big name books that take big action and ask them if they want some of that action so they can lay it off. OLY and CRIS would love this to have a big bet at 25-90 cents higher.. NO WAY 5D will book 2.64 million.. forget it..

and no way any bettor would be able to get down 2.64 mill on 1 game cause after every 3k or 10k, they will move the line 5 cents.. so by the time the bettor gets his 2.64 mill, the line will have moved 90 cents.. why not just bet 10k at 5D, then the rest of his big bet at other books at that same price. but no way anyone can get down that much at that same price at 5D..

LOL, another newbie who doesn't believe Fishhead. This thread reeks of jealous people.

Hopefully Fishhead will come by soon toanswer all the questions and to silence these doubters.

[Nicky Santoro]

it's not that i don't believe him but i don't think fishler ever said he bet 2.64 mill on that game. i think he just wrote it down on sheet for entertainment purposes. did he ever admit to saying "I bet 2.64 mill of my real money" i don't think so.. did he ever say what's on his spreadsheet are his actual total amounts he bets on these games?

if he did, i want to see it.. i doubt he did..

[raydog]

yacosmacks, what is wrong with nicky and these other new guys...cant they see the wager on fishheads spreadsheet? if you put it on the spreadsheet, its a done deal. no questions asked i thought.

[Nicky Santoro]

i think he put 2.64 mill so his spreadsheet can be in the black.. maybe he was down too much, so he decided to put in a 2.64 mill on a -500 so he can stay in the black now.. I don't know anything about these spreadsheet, never used em.. but I know not everyone puts the exact amounts they bet on it..

proof. when those spreadsheets started, I remember JJ's bet were all 10$.. then he changed em to 100$.. he did not start betting 10x his avg bet overnight..

fishler might have been down too many units, then decided to get it all back on 1 big game for 2.64 mill so his spreadsheet can be assured to no longer be in the red..

[rm18]

the tulsa ML was actually the 4th game in a chase to get in the black

[Nicky Santoro]

ok, i took a look at his spreadsheet for the 1st time now and here is what i noticed.

he bet 70,000 on a baseball game.. LOST it.

then he put 200,000 on another baseball game.. LOST IT

then he chased it on another baseball game for 200,000 to win 308,000 and lost it..

He was now down 470,000 on 3 big bets.


He wanted to save his spreadsheet and make back those 3 bets PLUS some profit.

So he took a NCAAF game at -470 and put 550,000 to lose 2.64 mill, and it won to show a profit of 80,000 over those 4 big bets..

If he didn't put that big 2,64 million on it, his spreadsheet would have never recovered.

Now you're saying that Fishhead is faking bets in his spreadsheet to appear to be in profit. Unreal. Like a legend would ever do that.

DO YOU KNOW WHO HE IS?

[reno cool]

wow! that's like 5x his career slot winnings. I could never afford to do that.

[raydog]

i, for one, will not sit here and listen to people second guess fishhead the legend. Dont they know that he was a moderator for kenny over at therx??? you people should be ashamed. this is madness. yaco, please disable my account altogether. this is blasphemy. downright rude. im sure fish will be in tomorrow morning and clear all this up.

[tacomax]

I think that Fishhead is currently formulating his reply to put down the haters and doubters. Stay tuned for some fireworks.

[raydog]

how do you see this playing out? will fish simply come in and say "im rich bitch" and tell everyone that he makes those size bets all the time...he is the legend you know. taco, how do you see him handling the non believers? damn im drunk

[reno cool]

do you know who he is?

Stanford Wong's cousin I guess.

[Hotdiggity11]

Wow, imagine if he lost the Tulsa game and had to put 18 million on a -600?

[Nicky Santoro]

Wow, imagine if he lost the Tulsa game and had to put 18 million on a -600?

IF tulsa lost, he'd be down 3,110,000$.. I doubt fishler would risk 3.1 million on 4 games.

i think he's just having fun with the spreadsheet.. i never took that sheet seriously.. i thought it was for entertainment purposes. i didnt' know it was people's actual bets.

That was my theory from page 1.

WOW.

I've lost count of the number of people that Fishhead is going to destroy tomorrow.

DO YOU PEOPLE KNOW WHO HE IS?

[Matt Rain]

pavy is hoping that FH comes up with a decent explanation, cause he sort of pioneered the ultra-wide bet size spread.

Myself, I prefer deleting batches of losing plays. The past is the past, let's not dwell on it.

Pavy's $500,000 bet is chump change compared to Fishhead's $2,640,000 wager.

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHO FISHHEAD IS?

When I opened this thread my cat walked out, she was like "I saw a lot of shit on the internets, but this $2.640.000 crap is more then my constitution can take, I just can't put up with this kind of bullshit, please open the door, I need some fresh air".

Another hater going down when Fishhead replies in this thread tomorrow.

[wtf]

well ANY human being that claims to make a wager of that magnitude and engages in dumpster diving just boggles the mind

also, he was so proud of himself when he gave justin ONE FUKIN POINT , he make a nice long entry about it, while he had 4800 points at the time

imagine being the wife of this guy, she must be showered with the best the garbage yields

[raydog]

but WTF...it was on his spreadsheet!!! didnt you see the spreadsheet? its there, its right there! doesnt his legendary status mean anything to anyone???

[wtf]

sorry ray, i was out of my mind when i posted that

it was on his spreadsheet-enough said

and jj is down 26k on his 100 dollar wagers

its on his spreadsheet

[tacomax]

Fishhead is going to destroy a lot of people when he replies to these questions.

nobody here gives a ****ing shit about your cat or your ****ing internets. You better be a ****ing chic if you're gonna talk like that.

Sounds like somebody lost a $2,640,000 bet last night.
