#76 Posted: 5/9/2010 8:28:11 PM I must say, that was an absolute horrible pick. Not because he chose Cleveland, but because he chose a basketball game. If he had chosen a baseball game, he would've gotten better odds on a hedge, if he did in fact hedge it. If it were me, I would've taken the Anaheim Angels at -121 which actually lost. But I would've gotten +114 on Seattle which would've payed $14,250 on a hedge bet of $12,500. Add on the $1000 from the contest gives a grand total of $15,250. But that's just what I would've done. |

yes...look at it as you will. Celtics go back to Clev and have to take 2 there right? If Boston didn't win its Elimination game in theory as Clev would run away with this series having home court

#78 Posted: 5/9/2010 9:28:27 PM I suspect he did not hedge and for all complaining about the pick ...he is the one that got to this point.... not you guys. I personally like playoff basketball picks . |

you're right, but he had a week to make a pick....I am sure a Mlb game would have been a better option to risk it all on.

#83 Posted: 5/10/2010 1:43:30 AM it was about getting the pick right for an opportunity to get to 100,000 not just making money by hedging..... i thought it was a good pick.....should never question the pick of someone who made it this far... |

#84 Posted: 5/10/2010 8:07:16 AM Holy garbage guys that was a rough loss!
Too bad bud, you went on a great run! but whiz123 is is not out without

#92 Posted: 5/13/2010 2:13:10 AM wonder if we are ever gonna see the 25 picks in a row? It might be a very long time if ever if we ever see someone get another 100k check from wagerling again. |

#94 Posted: 5/13/2010 4:16:31 AM I don't know if he hedged....But 10,000 on the celts that night would have at least guaranteed him a 9,000 profit one way or the other.... cause if the celts won he wins 9,000 and if his pick did win he would have got 14,000 so either way he was a winner...Have not seen what he did ...but a great run none the less! good Job! |
