    Tell the truth: What's the most chalk play you ever laid?

    For me it was -10000 on Roger Federer live wagering bet. Of course it won, but was it worth it? Hell to the yes

    I had Randy Couture -400 when I was shithouse and meant to put 200/50 on it but actually put 800/200. Oops. He won first round KO.

    I play bridgejumpers all the time. Last weekend I got Wichita St. at -700 and they had to go to triple overtime to win. I've laid -1000 or higher on Federer, and props like there won't be a safety in a NFL game. I bet boxing matches that are between -300 and -700 fairly frequently. Imo most gamblers are so fearful of laying large prices that it creates a lot profitable spots. I know many winning gamblers who refuse to risk a lot to win a little, even when they are fairly certain the bet carries a positive expectation.

    That was when he fought coleman right? I wagered a good amount on Randy in that fight too.

    I've thrown a couple -1200 cbb picks in some parlays. I've also anchored a -320 phillies ML to 3 other picks as parlays. The Phil's lost.

    Usually don't play any straight plays with juice in the -200's.

    2 years ago in MLB I was laying heavy chalk for around 5-6 weeks right after the all star break, never once got burned during that time doing it either. I remember laying $600 on the Red Sox and Beckett at home vs the Orioles to win $200. Several of them bets went on during that time.

    Wrestling is the best sport to bet Underdogs, in case you didn't know. Back in '98 or so I bet Rey Mysterio Jr. to beat Big Sexay Kevin knash. The line was minus thirty five thousand and it fukin hit. But I pissed all the winnings away betting Lex Lugar.

    I think most people wouldn't lay anything bigger than say -600 on non live in game wagers for juice wise. I've bet on crazy juiced line for ingame wagers that were bigger than -1000.
