Thinking About Betting Big...........
#1
In my Venmo account, I had built it up to over ten grand playing poker in an online poker group because that's all I did during lockdowns.

Some professionals joined and they figured me out quick.

Instead of adapting the way I play, I just kept losing.

I quit playing because they mostly play Omaha now (I'm a hold 'em guy), but still have about $3,300 in my account.

I'm thinking about betting it all on different things for the year.

I already have mentioned that I bet big on us winning it all, Chase and Burrow for MVP (separate bets, obviously), Hendrickson and Hubbard to lead the league in sacks, etc, and I'm wondering what other bets I should put on us.

Barring injuries, I think it's a foregone conclusion that we at least make the AFCC game, which $100 would win me $550, so do I put a grand on that?

Do I go big and also put a grand on winning the Super Bowl?

Should I bet more on Burrow winning MVP? He's the favorite and a grand would win me $6,000, and winning OPOY would win me a lot but Chase is the favorite there (I bet both to win both awards, which Chase winning MVP wins me like $15,000.

What should I bet big on?

I once was on a bus trip to a casino. The guide was late showing up. We asked him what happened. He said he bet all his money on the long shot horse and it won. He was ready to leave so bet everything. He had to stick around to collect. With your situation, maybe you can try a risky bet that pays well. I like the bet of a rushing touchdown each game. Or parlay a combination of bets for a good payout.

Fanduel just paid out $20 million for a parlay bet that each team would hit a field goal on Sunday. 200:1 odds
