That article is very interesting, but not about this bet.

The info on WagerWire integrating with sportsbooks to manage a secondary ticket buy/sell market directly inside apps instead of current awful cashout offers is intriguing.

Getting in early to exploit that could be profitable.

Agree, that was my takeaway as well.

His cash out amount is still only $100,000 which seems extremely low. They are +650 ish to win. $175-200k seems like at much more fair cash out number in my eyes. These sites should at least be made to provide somewhat reasonable numbers if a Cash Out feature is going to exist.

I agree. It's almost a little scammy/unethical seeing cashout offers so far under fair value.

100%, they are trying to rob him in broad daylight with that offer.

cashout feature was designed for the sportsbook to get better edge not the player.

having extra money to hedge bets is always better

Caveat Emptor is one thing. But making very lowball offers as a business strategy to rely on either ignorance or desperation is not ethical in my mind.

I don't have enough money in INJ to be sweating too much about it. Just hoping it hits your original prediction at some point.

I kind of expected this doldrum period after this years bull run anyway.
