Bettor places $1.5M on Rams straight-up (won on $1M Eagles bet last year)

I don't get money lines altogetger. People look at it like it's some kind of an omen, where in really it's just an indication of who people "think" will win. Total ********... Unless you're some super human with a sixth sense to foresee the future, which no one obviously can.

Wowee big news...! Less reported will be the 1.459m hedge bet on Patriots he places later.

It’s a Russian oligarch trying to influence the outcome of the game! /s

I don’t understand. How is a bettor going to affect the outcome of this game?

He is a referee

No way Brady loses 2 super bowls in succession. Take that to the bank.

I will self ban if the Rams win, but it is not happening.

Why would the sharps not wait till they got the last bit of information ?

Many will, as the bulk of SB wagering occurs within the last 48-72 hrs prior to kickoff, but the sole reason experienced bettors made an early play was the fact that the line opened at LA-1, so they wanted to try and take advantage.

That's on my line of thought too. What's the other bets?

But to take it one step further, how do we even know the story is true? The story is getting a lot of clicks which automatically, IMHO, means it's suspect for exaggeration or shaping. Also, as public betting sentiment is swayed by sports media hyping, couldn't this be some sort of ruse by a book to get a little more action going one way or another?

There's too many unpredictable variables to ever be close to 'pretty sure' on one game. Betting for positive income is a season full of games averaged. Ultimately, the majority of money going to one team means the majority of money is going to one team, while great concern for the outcome because of betting is outright misplaced anxiety (the DL holding their own, stopping the run, creating pressure. The Ol keeping TB's jersey clean. Their's a genuine source for anxiety ).

Greedy bastard. He lost the 1m he won when the Seagulls won, and lost another 1/2 m tonight.

#"Bet against us"

I bet $500 on the Pats. It was supposed to be $1000, but my bank's atm has a limit. I could've won so much more...
