Bet Bengals
#20
(07-11-2021, 12:39 AM)Go Cards Wrote: Was playing in pool tournament in Vegas in 2004 and figured I would make a championship bet on college.

Studied hard and decided that Auburn was my bet and laid $100 down. Solid team with a fairly good schedule for being in SEC that year and figured going undefeated in SEC would get them their chance was my reasoning.

Anyway they go undefeated but oddly don't get their shot at Championship game and USC wins against big against Oklahoma to clinch it..

Auburn finished 2nd per winning their bowl game as well to stay undefeated.
7 years later they strip USC of title which made Auburn the champs.

Too late for me as the bet was null and void by then obviously.

Anyway as for bet by OP, if one has confidence in the over 6.5 which obviously he does.
Then its a good bet. He gets money back on the over bet and gets to roll the dice on house money on 3 long shot bets that would pay handsomely if hit.
Even if we disagree and dislike his chances, we all will be winners if he is prophetic and Bengals "take it to the house".  I for one will be rooting for him every step of the way.

Good Luck !

Thanks,

You are right as long as they cover the over it is house money.
They AFC Championship and Super Bowl may be a sucker bet it brings excitement to the season.

If they start off strong I may have to start looking into Hotel rooms for the Super Bowl in Los Angeles.

It could be ZT and the Bengals going against Sean McVay and the LA Rams. Doesn't it hurt to dream a little.

Go Bengals!

BTW - That Auburn bet would have been a tough pill to swallow. Do you remember what the payout would have been?
