I got the same Promo on FD but $200 futures bet and $20 per win.

Also went Chiefs obv.

Ditto
Is there any other option? TB? Buff?

I think the majority of people got 50/5. I believe the win bonus maxes out at 10x, so any team that gets 10+ wins will max that out. KC appears to be the team most likely to win the SB, but I believe any of the teams below are fine if you like their particular odds:

Tier 1
KC
TB

Tier 2
BUF
BAL

Tier 3 (Getting Iffy here)
CLE
LAR
SF
GB
SEA

Yeah I mostly took KC because it’s basically impossible for them to win under 10 games if Mahomes stays healthy so it’s a guaranteed freeroll.

I took KC everywhere they were freerolling that one instead last year

guess they learned their lesson

Feels like a lot of bad lines for Dinger Tuesday today, but of course I bet them all anyway. Current bets:

Mitch Haniger +410
Bryan Reynolds +500
Justin Upton +250
Wander Franco +600
Jose Abreu +380
Josh Donaldson +360
Brandon Belt +300
DJ Peters +440
Josh Bell +400
Anthony Rizzo +420
Tyler O’Neill +340
Patrick Wisdom +230
Avisail Garcia +350
Salvador Perez +260

Agree that a lot of these lines are awful. Funny enough, FD has Salvador Perez +260, BSS has him +300/-420. Meanwhile, DK has him +600! They have some other wild lines as well. I’ll throw $25 on Perez for fun.

Edit: DK already corrected the line to +270.

Anyone bet DOTA? I’m watching some games to get reacquainted for TI10 because there’s always some good opportunities there and got a nice -200/+378 arb for a free $100 or $150. Probably could have got more if I had more money on BOL.

Added Manny Machado +400 for the late game

Where can you even bet eSports

Bovada and BOL both have lots of esports.

T Hernandez 340
Chisholm 550
Posey 600
Peters 430
Donaldson 360
Rizzo 420
O’Neil 340
Diaz 480
Castellanos 460
Correa 460
Machado 410

Got Belt as well but it cost me the no run first inning.

Might get the goose egg this week. Would be impressive.

DJ Peters!

Josh Donaldson 9th inning HR! Currently sitting 4/13 due to one postponement and Josh Bell not playing.

I guess Upton and O’Neill didn’t play either, so looking great at 4/11.

Yes. O’Neil was a late scratch so that bet is void. I’ll be in the black with those 2 HRs so no complaints. Hopefully Machado can take us home.
