Vegas took a big hit on the game. I read an article that said that 70% of the money that was bet was on Clemson.

Now respect is earned there too. Good.***

Bet those slot machines get tightened up for the next month or two. Lol!

Scared money don't make money! I admire the confidence!

Well, I only won the college bowl pool for $850 by picking CLEMSON (and the other guys picked OSU and Bama). I picked CLEMSON every week and won 2 of the 14 regular weeks. I tried to tell 'em, and they wouldn't listen. I'm happy with my piddly earnings. :)

I would never have the nerve (or that much extra cash lying around) to pony up 10K on a bet though.

Well, with your winnings you could have made a down payment on a ticket to the game!

I flew to Vegas before the season began and put $820.20, at the Mirage, on us to win the Natty. My payout including the original wager was $7381.80. Mailed in my ticket yesterday and am awaiting the check. Got my part in that record breaking payout by MGM Sportsbook.

I doubt I ever bet again; just was going to be kicking myself if we won and I didn't act, after saying this is our year for two years.

Of course we don't know the amount of money


Jan 12, 2017, 1:05 PM

he has lost making such risky bets with these amounts of money, so this is half the story only.

What was risky about that bet???

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

Two ways to look at that.


Jan 14, 2017, 10:04 AM

1) 9-1 is a relatively long shot. If that's how you define risky, this bet is certainly at least fairly risky.

2) It's also a bit relative to your bank account. If that guy is a multi-millionaire, dropping 10 grand on a relative long shot probably isn't a huge deal. If it's somebody with 20k in the bank, then betting half of it with 9-1 odds is sheer folly.

He made that bet in August?

Dayum, Dabo's got some cajones.

I won $110 on two $10 bets I made on Clemson in July and I felt like a champ, i can't even imagine this.

On the front page of ESPN on the small comments blog,
there was a comment on the Saturday before, that
someone had just placed a $100,000 bet on Clemson with
a betting service.
They named it, but can't remember, now.
Wonder what his payout was!?
WOW!

He prob took the six points. If so, he would have net 100,000
