I had Zona first half..................heartbreaker. I loaded up on the Cards TT OVER 10.5 2nd half. It was a "tilt" bet......I got lucky. That was dead with 7 minutes to go. It evens out. Usually not that fast.

i was thinking of making my big play AZ first half, thinking they would start out on like they did against philly. I eventually ended up taking them for the entire game though.
Literally 10 seconds before that play I was saying how i'm pissed that i changed my mind and that i was probably going to get fucked in the end of the game. When that play happened I was thanking God I didnt make that bet because somebody in the bar would have been injured
by far the biggest of the year since the Pitt/SD touchdown fiasco

I am the heartbreak kid, I played my largest bet of the NFL season, I think because the Devil made me do it, some sick bastard got in my head when I was placing bets, sick stuff happens, we did get the Cards +7 and 3-1 in teh game with Defensive TD and Heads, but this is one for the ages...

While this was quite a moose, this wasn't the EPIC moose that was the Pitt/SD TD fiasco- not even close.

Everyone on Pitt knew Az wasnt going to run. That was their weakness--they abandoned the run after 5 tries. Which was good to move the ball, but bad for the redzone. Az not great in the zone.

i bet steelers for the game, but when Big Ben had that ball tipped and picked i was a bit happy (to the surprise of my friends). i had thown down $80 on a half/game prop bet... . i had tie/steeler at 15-1.
thought my chances of 10-10 were looking pretty good.

The Under 23.5 and ARI +3.5 1H were definitely big time mooses. Also the 2H under 23 and under 47 for the game ranks right up there! Finally, I don't think there could be a bigger moose for me then the NYG vs. Car game where the NYG - 4 covered after a TD, 2pt conversion, Car missed FG, and OT TD to win. Sad thing is that I was on the other side of the moose on all! You just gotta love the NFL!

Me and a friend had it +3.5. Immediately before the int he says "at least we got our half-time bet". Thanks. He also had Miller to get the 1st TD. Twice he goes down at the 1 yd line. Amazing. One more: he had no team could get 3 consec scores, the safety was #3. He took every bad beat there was.
Today I was trying to think what the odds on a defensive td on that play. I'm thinkin' 1,000-1
I like this thread, this is a ridiculously BAD BEAT and it's gotta be Top 5.

i had +4 for the first half--i've been doing this for roughly 30 years,
and NEVER feel good about a play until the book cashes. my ticket..
that said, I think I said, "I've now seen it all" after that pick 6...
Agree 100%, "I've now seen it all" is a great line.
I now feel like I gotta carry Tyree's catch on one shoulder and now this on the other. Not only did I have AZ +3.5 in first half, also had -3.5 and -7.5 for game, AZ ML/Over parlay. 1st and goal at the 1 yd line I'm feelin like a possible big score could be made (how about just once to guess dog and lay points). If AZ scores Pitt goes into locker room questioning themselves down 14-10, which shouldn't of been difficult, maybe BB starts pressing. And then the MOOSE appeared. Don't cash a ticket on the game, I just refused to lay -130 and take the 7, I thought it was robbery, tried to work around it. Great game but horrible to have my tickets in your pocket. A vanilla AZ+7 / Over parlay might of been a good idea, but I forgot one....

I had "the" weekend -went back and looked at my college BB games I played Friday through Sunday...I lost three separate plays with free throws made or missed with 2 seconds or less in the games....So my ONLY play in the SB was with AZ +4 1H---could not feel good even with first and goal--perhaps I should go back to the good old days of "naive" optimism!
The kicker: Monday night I'm on the road for work-and play one play in college hoops--cos' I'm bored AND still pissed off about the bad beat...put it all on….
Siena
-11.5----so Siena is up 13 with 8.8 seconds left, St. Peters guy get fouled, but misses
BOTH free throws. (perfect ending, right?) BUT St. Peters gets the rebound on the second shot
and puts back a lay-up to end the game. Lose again by a half…
I overthink--original thought was AZ +7 for the game--too boring, right?

I know I'm of world-class talent at losing football games in the last 30 seconds. My real specialty is being on a side thats never behind the entire game and manage to lose. Happens all the time. Welcome to the club, no BB or B for me. Also, I bet I haven't bet 5 first half lines in my life. Used this one because it was -110 and not -130 to take +7 (Stratosphere). Mistake was not taking +7/OV parlay, largely due to I could never have a story that good to tell of how they got that total and that I hate totals.
I'm a 30 yr man too and didn't bet a game since NE/NYG SB or visit Vegas during the year - due to that beat down. Might be longer this time, might put end to my career 13 weekends in Vegas for SB.
Regarding what completed whatever you could see. I still wasn't healed up from Tyree yet to believe my new heart could withstand anything of this magnitude a fkin' 2nd year in a row. This might be the one, its just not acceptable to keep finding this.
Killed playing BJ & Craps starting Friday evening not ending thru Saturday. Ever have this one? Playin quarter bj.
Two Aces. Split them. Get 2 facecards. Dealer has K, flips a 5, then draws a 6. Thanks. I got the message at that game long ago.
I loved AZ in that game, didn't buy into Pitt could shut them out. Took a while but they got it going. I was at both AZ playoff games, and wanted them to win and could live with losing on them. Taking PItt and losing was not an option. The pick 6 killed the notion of AZ winning handily and I need them to win, + cover -3.5 or -7.5 and it would of been jackpot.
It's now golf season.
