Kid has $1M riding on Panthers game

I wouldn't bet on Pitt, either.

 

If either of them had any brains whatsoever, they would have booked a flight to Vegas this morning and put their life savings and maxed out their credit cards on Atlanta to hedge.

Barring that, they should have set up an account on Bodog or another online book and done the same thing.

 

TMI.

Though I wonder why you are sad.

 

Different streak. That one's muuuuuch longer.

 

Good luck moving half-a-million in Vegas in anything resembling an efficient, timely manner --
unless you're a huge table-game sucker one of the larger hotels is interested in catering to,
at any price.

Moving this kind of money around offshore is now virtually impossible for a U. S. citizen . . . not to mention that getting paid in a timely manner from most offshores is problematic, at this point.

 

I'm just saying that making a sizable wager would not have been a problem. There are still offshore places that cater to U.S. citizens, and if you plan ahead, you can make the Vegas scenario work too.
If I had gotten up to around 19 or 20 wins, hell, I start hedging.

 

Wow, dude with 24 in a row picked the Pack tonight. I have a feeling he just punched a window.

Next up -- some guy with 22 in a row has the Saints. Two people with 21 have the Saints.

 

The guy is going to be in therapy for months.

 

The longest I ever had was nine. I'm back up to four now - and it's taken me nearly two weeks.

That's probably the point with this game - there's not always a guaranteed winner available.

 

And we're back to 0.

 

Ehhh, what would you have done with a million anyway
