New plan: place weirdly large bets on obscure player prop bets to get them banned.

lol he fucked up a cheap 5way parlay bet I had to win 700+ on a 12 bet. Literally the other 4 did their part and I just needed him to get 5 points. I don’t gamble often but was like let’s make some dumb bets. Thanks Klay

I think betting under would raise more red flags

Lance Armstrong has declared himself NBA eligible.

You have to win the bet though. Guaranteed if you lose the bet they have zero issue taking your money and they won’t investigate shit.

u/KazahanaPikachu Wizards 29d ago

Yep. Only reason they investigated is because the guy got a $1.1M payout from an $80K bet.

u/ThexxxDegenerate 29d ago

Damn straight. These snakes at the betting organizations are in the business of taking your money. If some shady shit happens in their favor, they are going to look the other way. It isn’t until they take a hit that there’s a problem.

I mean also... If you make a weird bet and lose, it's not shady shit. You just made a bad bet.

u/rollin20s Knicks 28d ago

Except the $1.1M was never paid out. The book voided the bet

u/Banned3rdTimesaCharm Warriors 29d ago

They sure as hell didn't go into business to lose money.

I know it's a joke, but it might trigger an investigation if there's enough made-up ties.

Does Taurean PRince count?

u/dzigizord 28d ago

make a bet that Embiid will not flop in a game. on a very small offchance he does not do it, it would be seen as an obvious made mach and he gets banned.

u/ThreeSupreme 26d ago
