Betting on Sports

Conference Tournament Time baby! The futures odds for National Title odds were pretty bad this year unfortunately. When 2 teams basically entrench themselves at +300 or better by Christmas, it’s tough for any other teams to have attractive value, so we went HAM on conference tourney title odds. I’ve been using my PointsBet Free bets on a lot of darts so that’s a good amount of the small shots.

Big Sweats
Michigan +2500 for $300
Alabama +2000 for $500
Clemson +20000 for $50

Big Ten
Rutgers +3000 for 100
Purdue +3000 for 100
Ohio State +4000 for 50
Michigan State +5000 for 100
Minnesota +15000 for 20

Other OK Sweats
Duke +2500 for 60
Wichita St +3000 for 10
Oklahoma +3000 for 18
Ole Miss +5000 for 50
Colorado St +2000 for 10

Hey, you’re gonna miss a few shots
Fresno St +6000 for 20
Wyoming +10000 for 20
UCF +8000 for 30
Stanford +2000 for 100 (oof)

Selection Sunday Seed Props
Florida Over 5.5 -110 for 188 (Cash that ticket already)
Kansas Under 4.5 -110 for 220
Kansas Under 4.5 -200 for 500 (Fired more after their win over UTEP)
Wisconsin Under 8.5 -110 for 220
Wisconsin Over 5.5 -152 for 1520 (Huuuuuuge loss to Iowa today, they’ve probably gotta beat Iowa and Illinois to get to the 5 line or higher)

To Make the Tournament
Stanford No -200 for 200 (Cash this one already)
Michigan St No +122 for 200 (win over Michigan means this one’s probably a loss)

You can still bet on Zaga to get a #1 seed at -10000. You’re basically just letting the DK hold your money for a week, right?

I wish I had a big enough roll where I could bet something at -10000 and make some actual money.

I don’t understand what I’m missing that DK still has Kansas under 4.5 at -152.

Colorado State lost the reg season conference title on a buzzer 3

+1400 to poof grrrr

You also get a few crowns, and the more you’ve wagered there in a month you get bumped up in their monthly rewards thing. It’s def worth it if you have money just sitting there.

Pointsbet has a small rakeback bonus too with this.

Me neither. Covering all my bases but damn that’s a green light special.

CBR has Kansas an 8 seed it’s pretty hilarious, the 1 seeds are all set but BYU 3, Loyola 4 pretty funny list

Yikes! Ok, had already made a decent sized (for me) bet on the under, and you at least gave me a piece of info to stop me from throwing a lot more at it.

don’t think they use CBR

they’re supposed to use NET

but colgate is 8th overall so lolz

Still pretty clear who the 1 seeds are for a change (almost everyone now has the same top 4) and iowa/ohio state end up in gonzaga/baylor’s region. This committee doesn’t have a tough job if they don’t fuck it up.

I just fired another $1520 on it.

10th in Torvik’s Wins above Bubble. 0 losses outside Quad 1. Only team in the country to beat Baylor. 8 losses and 2 of them are to Gonzaga and Baylor, every loss is to a good tournament team. This just isn’t a 5 seed resume even if they drop their first Big XII Tournament game to Oklahoma.

in other words the name on the jersey says Kansas so they’ll be at least a 4 seed

NET/Lunardi both have KU as a 4.

Texas swept them though that should be clearly seeded higher in my view

It’s just so difficult for enough teams to pass them at this point IMO. They’re the 3rd 3 seed on Matrix right now. A loss to Oklahoma could make it a little dicey, but even then I find it tough to believe that teams like a USC or Tennessee or Clemson could jump Kansas to the 4 line.

BYU great start with 9 3s at half

Yikes! I jinxed them

DK still allows you to bet Zaga to get a #1 seed at -10000. Kinda absurd. Also, Kansas now u3.5 -152. Good call on that.

O3.5 is +120. I don’t really think it’s worth it to middle it as I think they’re prob about equally as likely to get a 2/3 and a 4 seed and have maybe a 5-10% chance to get a 5 or worse.

Wisconsin has also moved to over 6.5 -143 from the over 5.5 Zimmer originally mentioned itt.

I did end up throwing more on Kansas under 4.5 earlier this week too, so I’m happy to see that line move.

This William Hill promo works well in conjunction with the PB promo.
