Largest favorite I've ever seen

[assassin]

before tonights game, NJ -6000 to win the series. Anyone ever see one larger than that ? I luaghed so hard when I saw that (shoot my load for a $10 win).

Im pretty sure assassin that 5dimes had New Jersey at -21000 to win the series, but on the other side on offered 8,000 if you took Boston...

what were the odds for buster douglas to beat tyson? i thought it was a lot higher than -6000 on tyson.

Sirbet (a fantastic group IMHO) had NJ -6000, Boston +4800 earlier today. Didn't check near game time.

For the bookmakers: Do you see much action on lines like these?

MajorBetting.com They had a line last week.... Will Sickgambler post in may of 2003 at the Rx at No-6000...Not sure if they offered both side betting.

 

[EveryGamblersDream]

Yes, I've seen lines much higher then that on one game, hell even 3 times that.

Look at 5Dimes during the CFB season & you will see big favs regardless of spread -20,000+ on the ML.

Bet365 had delahoya at odds 1 european odds. I dont quite know how that is expressed in american odds but it meant: Delahoya wins: you get your wager back. Delahoya loses: you lose your wager. Best case was break even. I was ROFLMAO.

I remember reading someone trying to meet a rollover requirement bet 500 to win $3 on them

8.000?Are these guys nuts?Would they pay for a 10$ stake or would they say "bad line".
