16 to 1, so 1600 bucks. I don't think the risk is worth it.

Made a small bet on Jazz beating Denver for the series. Feel a little less confident now that they'll be missing Conley for most of the series potentially but he's also not the player he used to be. I bet OKC over Rockets and separate bets that OKC would finish 4-2 or 4-3 in the series, since they both paid out roughly 7 to 1 and I can't imagine them sweeping or going 4-1. Just for today I did a parlay on Jazz moneyline, Jazz/Denver over, and Raptors moneyline. That was also before I found out Conley wouldn't be playing.
I also fired up Draftkings for the first time this year and did a couple lineups with Jordan Clarkson because I think he'll be the biggest beneficiary of Conley missing time.

Odds have already come down significantly on Jazz and OKC, seems the betters have gone hard early on those rounds.

I bet player prop Caris Levert under 37.5 points/rebounds/assists. I figure there's no way Raps D lets him get away with putting up video game numbers like he did throughout the seeding round.

15 points 5 rebounds for LeVert was about what I expected through 3 quarters. Definitely didn't expect him to pick us apart for 13 assists through 3 quarters, thought he'd get maybe 6 or 7 for the whole game and he got that by the 1st quarter.

Looks like I'll just barely win the LeVert prop but it was a lot closer than I expected. It helped that Nurse started aggressively doubling LeVert every time he touched the ball in the 4th quarter so he was getting hockey assists more than actual assists.

Ya it helps to lower the points but hurts for the assists numbers you saw. I had a few small bets too. Had the alt spread for Raps won, then had wins on OG, Gasol over in points and Fred over in Ast. Lost on Lowry over Ast and Siakam over in points. 3/2 means a small profit in total so i'll take that anytime. Alt spread is all gravy.

You ever get any issues live betting where the bet doesn't go through? Maybe I'm sometimes too click happy because i feel like it is a rush to complete but this is the second time last night that it failed to register my live bet. This time it was when i saw Kristaps was ejected yesterday i immediately bet on the biggest spread for the Clippers at 5.5. I got a notice for accepting changes when i first submitted so i hit accept, the pop up goes away but then it seems i never actually bet. Clips went on to win the game based on this completely bullshit call.

I should have put down money on the Magic!
I’m sure the Bucks are just following the Raptors’ playbook, though. They’ll bounce back in Game 2.

So I tried again and it seemed to work. End of the game, it ended up both bets had actually went through (luckily Raps won by 5 so both cashed in, but I would have been annoyed if I bet double the amount I had wanted and lost). I had checked the balance and the first bet definitely didn't go through right away. So I wonder if the site messed up and cashed it in and took away the bet balance 5 minutes later when I was no longer on the site? Edit: this was on sportsinteraction by the way, I haven't used any other live betting sites

I actually did put like $2 on the Magic moneyline which paid out 7 to 1, but I stupidly parlayed it with a Lakers win so that it would pay out 15 to 1. I guess end of the day it's just $30 so it's not like I would've won the lottery or anything, but I would've felt like the smartest man in the room if that bet worked.

Pretty sure there’s an error right now on sportsinteraction. They put up player props for the Blazers/Lakers game and all the numbers for the pats/rebounds/assists combined props seem like they’re only showing the regular points numbers. So I just put money down on Nurkic for combined 16.5 over rebounds+points+assists

Just put 100 on an Anthony Davis over 31.5 combined points/rebounds/assists prop. This feels like the all-time gimme bet, absolutely has to be a mistake, so I fully expect him to get hurt in the first quarter and I lose anyway

Also put a big bet on Lebron over 29.5 combined points/rebounds/assists prop. No joke, no exaggeration, if this somehow backfires it's a sign from the gambling gods to stop gambling forever because I am never going to get a better prop line than this

Post by scully19 on Aug 22, 2020 16:40:12 GMT -5
I'm very confused by it too that I almost think they're something we're missing. LeBron actually didn't pass that last game so I guess it isn't impossible. I joined on both ad and LeBron as well.
Looked at harden as his total is 51 lol.

It has to be a mistake. All of those combined prop numbers are right in line with the normal points-only prop line. (LeBron came massively under but I remember going into game 2 his prop line was like 51.5 or something like that). I keep re-checking the site to see if those bets are going to be mysteriously voided and refunded, but it looks like they're going to honour them. The fact they could make a mistake this basic makes me a little worried they have my drivers' license and bunch of other identifying info on file.

I also haven't ruled out the joke "actually it says Total Pts / Assists / Rebs which means we divide the points by assists by rebounds, not add them together."

Just sadly thinking about how I would've been up hundreds of dollars if sportsinteraction hadn't canceled those bets, instead of now having to wait a couple days for them to transfer the money back to my bank account. (I actually would have won all the props with the revised lines if I'd re-entered the bets again, but there was no way for me to justify to my wife 'hey honey I just randomly bet a couple hundred from our joint account on risky prop bets after a few weeks of nickel and diming'. It only made sense when it was a completely sure thing with the old lines)

Sportsinteraction messed up their prop lines again and so far it looks like the bet might go through unless they cancel partway through the game. They copied Embiid’s 45.5 combined points rebounds assists line to Richardson, so I took the under. There was already enough action that payout was only 1.5 and I only had 50 left in my account. But it’s basically free money if they honour the bet

Sportsinteraction paid out and honoured the bet despite the ridiculously inflated line. Kind of wish I had kept those couple hundred bucks in the account so I could have made some actual money but an extra $25 for no risk is nice

Kind of wish I had kept those couple hundred bucks in the account so I could have made some actual money but an extra $25 for no risk is nice I would imagine once the game starts they have to honor it. Good for you to catch it and run with it. I didn't say anything until now on it but I went big on Raptors sweep because the Nets owed me so it was going to be the ultimate hate or I would break even ish over how much they lost so I got that going for me now. EDIT: ended up with 230 on the sweep, took 130 to bet then with 40 of that hedging with a 5 game series. Initially planned to keep hedging so I brake even on 5 games but they just added more to sweep and left it because I had some faith. Also went big on alternate bets tonight, well as big as they allow. Hit the limit at 14 bucks with 15.5 over then the line moved and I put 10 more on 16. I think I roughly ended now with 54 on the alternate and hitting on 44 of it which would be roughly 100 payout, so all in all I caught up decent with the Nets ruining my bubble, although not entirely I can at least forgive and forget now.

I'm starting to wish i put more money on the Jazz and OKC as the huge underdogs at the start of the series. Jazz obviously look close to wrapping up the series and OKC is now very much back in it and looked to have solved the way to play against the Rockets for now. Should be interesting going forward.

Post by sutureself on Aug 25, 2020 22:14:18 GMT -5
Because I was just doing small bets I put $5 on Jazz to win (pays out 2.7 to 1), $5 on OKC to win (2.65), $5 on OKC to win 4 games to 2 (7 to 1), $5 on OKC to win 4 games to 3 (6.5). So I guess I wish I had bet a bit more down, but it's still possible the OKC bets with the biggest payouts are going to lose (more confident in the Jazz obviously)). If both Jazz and OKC win I'll have about $60 coming back to me, gives me a bit more to play with going into next round.

I like it overall but I don't have much else to compare it to. I remember having to jump through a few extra hoops to get started compared to something like DraftKings; I had to scan and upload my drivers license, not sure if they still do stuff like that. If you do decide to try it you should use a referral code from scully19

Is Sportsinteraction the best place to bet? I would tend to think no honestly. The level of bad is slightly compared though to what sport you're looking at. I like to bet on MotoGP as well but because this is not popular in Canada it also takes me constantly asking for lines for that every weekend. I gave up with them and joined BWIN just for MotoGP but then looked at some of their NBA stuff and it just seems like in general that site is quicker at posting stuff and had a couple more options to it but not much really. Also SportInteraction is canadian so it seems like NBA betting is always skewed for Toronto, so betting for them seems to give worse odds, sucks if you are betting for them but good if you want to bet against. SI: Toronto vs Boston Series bet: 1.68 to 2.25 BWIN: Toronto vs Boston Series bet: 1.67 to 2.25 So very quickly at least on this bet looks like I'm wrong lol. Next game: SI: T v B: 1.71 v 2.15 moneyline - Raps fav by 2.5 points BWIN: T v B: 1.8 v 2.05 moneyline - Raps fav by 2 points Very small difference really. With SI you're playing with Canadian dollars, with BWIN you're playing with US dollars. SI gives you the better bonus though, double the amount input up to 200 bucks, whereas BWIN is double up to 100 (75 US). Based on that along it might be the better option since you can start out up 200 (it'll take a lot of betting to be able to withdraw it FYI). Referral link: www.sportsinteraction.com/open-account/?rfc=ZOJF1BIf the link doesn't work which was not for sutureself last time then code is ZOJF1B. Just make sure that you see the option for doubling your initial money otherwise use the live chat option to get it included. If you can only use my code or get the double bonus obviously just use the double bonus.
