Question on Nolans 4-1 odds on the titans?

[treynolds]

Just was wondering how it would have worked out if i would have bet it. Would have i ended up making easy money or did it break out around even. The play was

Titans to go to the super bowl bet $1000 to win win $4000


Then bet ML Pitt to win $1000

Last step bet the raiders ml to win $1000

Did this work out to win money????


I was just curious

This would have ended with a net loss of -$600

The wager was predicated on the Raiders and Titans being closer in probability to winning the AFC championship game. But after TENN stumbled against PITT and OAK blew out NYJ, the numbers shifted against us and OAK became a sizable moneyline favorite. I was hoping for a NYJ upset on the OAK game which would have made this a great situation. As it turned out, instead of OAK being a -220 ML (which would have given us ~800 in profit) based on the perceptions of these teams a week ago, everything went against us last week and we ended with a net loser with the hedge this week.

Back to the drawing board....
