#52 Posted: 1/26/2008 3:59:03 PM I started a few days ago and if I were to hit 21 in a row it won't be until after the "Big Game" (not authorised to say S***R B**L) so I guess I would only win 10G...Bummer.
They should have 21 in a row for 21 Grand!!!  |

#53 Posted: 1/26/2008 8:59:40 PM Well, at least the contest is still going on... if Wager was really broke the site would go offline...lol That wont happen until I hit 21! lol Years ago I actually hit one of those "what the hell" type football parlays... 8 teams! At the time it was 80-1 and I had a Benji on it. Went lookin to cash in and boom! Aliens musta abducted my bookie... lol Heard he lost so much that day that freakin James Bond couldn't have found him! So, as long as Wagers here, there's hope! Good luck all |

#54 Posted: 1/26/2008 11:03:23 PM OldBlewzMan, wow that must have really f-ing sucked to hit that big and not get to cashout.Just curious did you ever hear anything about where he diappeared to, was he a close friend or just someone you knew from a local bar.
I just don't know how some pople can just up and move at a moments notice(he must have been in deep). I just hope that if I ever do hit that big that the sportsbook I am with honors the wager.
As for this contest, man you could offer me $1 million and there is no way I'm even coming close to hitting 21 wins, i think my best streak is like 5 or 6(pathetic), I really don't know how poeple can make a living betting sports, it is so f-in unpredictable. |

#55 Posted: 1/27/2008 5:44:36 PM Amen! Last week I bet NCAA BBall ...5 teams, all favorites, 3 of the RANKED. Every freaking one lost, four of them straight up...lol. Nostro-dummass, that's me. I'm thinkin' of getting a 900 number ... or a website..."www.taketheotherguys.dumbass.    As for the bozo, rumor has it he may be "up close and personal" with Jimmy Hoffa, if you follow the way I'm driftin...my longest streak is 8...I'm thinking of taking the 'over' on the NHL All-Star game.  |

#56 Posted: 2/1/2008 4:17:22 AM Ha To many people wanted to win it by the 1st of the year stacking old picks to win it. Now you have the entire year to make picks.
They should change it where it runs only till the end of the year and starts over Januray 1st.

#60 Posted: 2/17/2008 4:56:53 PM ya, $1 is probably asking too much.....maybe 25cents.......that would get an extra 20k |

#62 Posted: 2/17/2008 10:19:37 PM well, mathmatically....
1/2 x 1/2 21 times is...
.00000047683
having a 50% chance of losing is hard enough....
the above figure is your chances of WINNING
so that means chances of losing is 99.9999995% |
