    PointsBet in New Jersey Paying Out Lamar Jackson MVP Bets!

    They're doing it again!

    Jackson’s odds at PointsBet peaked at 75-1 over the summer. After Week 2, Jackson fell to 25-1, then 12-1 by Week 3. Last week, he was at +250 and this week at +130. Book is reportedly taking a five-figure loss.

    What's the benefit of paying a bet ahead of time? People can get the winnings and bet +130 at another book.

    Are they paying full odds or a discounted deal?

    Surely offering a discounted price? Dunno why they so scared. As of now I still think it Russ Wilson.

    It has to be at a major discount, especially for those with 75-1.

    I'm not really sure why as Wilson I thought was the front runner.

    Always great promos with these guys. Think I remember Phil v Tiger paying out +300. Took the Kansas Duke Mich St Kentucky NCAABB winners @ +300 (was +100). Cash payouts from Meadowlands. Good stuff

    Too bad I took Jackson at a better number elsewhere in NJ this morning.

    But they probably wouldn't have paid me anyway since my account is not eligible for promos because of "disproportionate use of promotions". Pointsbet promos great if you are a loser I guess. Same old story with this industry no matter where you go. 99% of people lose their shirt. Some % ruin their lives completely. But if anyone wins anything, they want you to go F off. The way they removed me was BS and cost me money too. And, I am not even up much there, if anything.

    Full odds at whatever was bet, ranging for 75/1 to +130. So like a normal bet that is final.

    Only book in New Jersey, at the moment, who has consistent reload bonus promos going on. And no I'm not talking about the "20% up to $50" reload offers that SugarHouse or MGM have.

    At what price? It can't be full face value.

    Yes it is, they are grading as final. I guess the 5-figure hit is still cheaper than paying for advertising.
