ThaddeusB's "lock of the decade" - free points courteous of SBR

goofyre · 11-01-10, 01:13 PM

Thanks for the advice. I went ahead and took the bet. I'll take a almost free pizza.

Housemoney · 11-01-10, 01:20 PM

Good find

Boscoe · 11-01-10, 01:27 PM

300 free points.

nmr123321 · 11-01-10, 01:37 PM

lol

ChileCheese · 11-01-10, 01:38 PM

Blumenthals main competitor is Linda McMahon.. and has no chance to win. Im all over this bet.

BatemanPatrickl · 11-01-10, 01:41 PM

Reid is 2 to 3 points behind in the polls. Not a lock but good value.

milwaukee mike · 11-01-10, 02:01 PM

never underestimate the power of wrestling fans

keep in mind many people that are fans of linda mcmahon's are anti-establishment and won't answer poll questions

good luck but i wouldn't lay 250 on it

Extra Innings · 11-01-10, 02:10 PM

My SBR point computer group advisor alerted me to this play about a week ago.

RollPlayer · 11-01-10, 03:24 PM

Thanks Thad

if this hits I might just have to invest it in your sportsbook

It's a huge scalp....just bet it and put a couple bucks on the other side at Matchbook.
If it isn't offered, somebody will take it if you offer it as a decent scalp against intrade.

I'll offer you (or anoyone else) the other side for +500 so that you can bet 20 against me and 100 against SBR and come out either +20 or even with no risk.

CarolinaDaze · 11-01-10, 03:51 PM

Confirmed. Let me know which pay back option you prefer (makes no difference to me).

yisman · 11-01-10, 05:37 PM

I would like the +500 as well.

While the Dem candidate will probably win, the race has tightened up according to a poll today.

40 to win 200?

FrozenMAN · 11-01-10, 05:58 PM

that's fuckin gay that they took em down already.....saw that a few days ago and then waited too long and now ****** over....so gay...SBR open it back up!

milwaukee mike · 11-01-10, 06:37 PM

i'll just pay you back the 20 in this thread if blumenthal wins

Projected Winners Richard Blumenthal. close but i guess we got a winner.

wonder when they will become official and get paid?

CarolinaDaze · 11-02-10, 07:59 PM

Nice the major news networks say Blumenthal wins it, congrats all and Thanks again for that one Thad.

tblues2005 · 11-02-10, 09:13 PM

That was an easy winner tonight. I had some on it.

yisman · 11-02-10, 09:36 PM

Thaddeus, I owe you 40.

We'll put it together with the rest and calculate at the end of all the dust?

Yah, that's fine. Better to wait till morning anyway, as the networks get their projections wrong every once in a while.

milwaukee mike · 11-03-10, 08:48 AM

here you go thaddeus
what's the most i can withdraw from your bank or put on a bet?
i remember you saying you could put a bet through to save rake

otherwise i might want something from the store

benjy · 11-03-10, 08:55 AM

Great call on the Conn race. Wish I'd caught it in time. Nice value on the Nev bet too, even if it didn't win.

yisman · 11-03-10, 09:55 AM

I thought Angle at +200 was better value than Conn D at -250, but lo and behold, Angle lost.

I didn't see this until now - it was kinda of a strange place to ask....

Between your two accounts you can withdraw about 500. I would be happy to place a bet in SBR's sportsbook on your behalf to save the rake.
