wow, I was browsing the lines earlier today when I came accross the layayette / monroe game.

I noticed one of my outs had MONROE -2 & another out had LAFAYETTE + 4!!!

I quickly did what any sane man would do.... I layed enough to win 1500$ on each side at each book.....

When the half was almost over I noticed I HAD MADE A HUGE MISTAKE.... MONROE had not been -2 at all.... I HAD BET 1500$ on Monroe to win the first half -2!!!!!!

MONROE KICKED A FIELD GOAL IN THE LAST MINUTE OF THE FIRST HALF TO COVER THE -2 & WIN THE FIRST HALF BY 3!!!!

had no time to hedge so I had to sweat out the second, which ended in a 3-3 tie....

THUS LAYAYETTE covered the + 4 as the final score was Monroe 13-10.

***The hilarious thing is that if in fact these lines had been available I also would have hit the middle, but the middle never actuall existed!!! yet I won both despite my error..... WOW****

I AM ONE LUCKY IDIOT!!!!

I've made betting mistakes only for them to win. Then I've made mistakes only to have them lose.

Glad you cashed.

Nice score who cares if it does come under "Even a blind squirrel finds an acorn once in a while" school of sports betting.
