Great Heisman Bet

[Scott4USC]

I just placed 2 large Heisman wagers that should not lose.

$500 to win $1500 on White (betwwts) +300
$500 to win $700 on Leinart (pinnacle) +140

White wins it +$1000 profit
Leinart wins it +$200 profit
Anybody else wins it -($1000)

$500 was max wager at betwwts. Max wager at Pinny was $1000.

As long as either White or Leinart win it, you ca$h. Go take advantage of this now!

If you like White to win it, +300 is great odds!
If you like Leinart to win it, +140 is great odds!
Those lines make great single wagers as well. I went for the guaranteed profit if either wins.

FYI, Olympic has White -125 and Leinart even money. Peterson is 3rd at +300. I highly doubt Peterson wins it or else I am out $1000. Then again, you always can play around with the numbers as the Heisman Ceremony gets closer.

If Leinhart wins it, you lose $300
If White wins it, you win $500
and (as you figured out) if anyone else wins it, you lose $1,000

Way to scalp 'em :lol:

I was fixing to post the same thing Bobby...

 

[OKD]

If Leinhart wins it, you lose $300

How do you figure?

Yes, he only *wins* $700, but, obviously, he also gets his $500 back.

I was wrong. Math is hard. I'm an idiot.

Like I said - great scalp

I like the prop.
There is very little risk.

Peterson, a FR, wont win and neither will Benson (for rockin the ganja a year or so back).

The 3 Aub players sort of cancel each other out (more so than Leinhart/Bush or White Peterson).

No one else really has a chance.

My problem is that my book has caught on to the probablity of one or the other winning and has dropped the odds to even for Leinhart and 2:1 for White. I'm spread out too thin to put $$$ in any other book.

I'll probably play it, but the yeild wont be as significant.
