Im talking about when they won the world series, & were down 3-0 but came back,

I remember at the time SHRINK made a wager on it?

what were the odds for them to come back at that point & what were the odds for them to win it all?

Boston to win the ALCS was +1450, I think.

If you just assume they would be favored to beat any NL team, it should have been at least +3000 but no more than +4000.

SSavant, what were the odds on Ottawa to beat Buffalo after they were down 0-3?

Yankees were -1700 after being up 3-0.

I know of someone who laid -1800 thinking books were stupid for even offering it - and truth be told, many books never offered it.

The Yankees were around -450 after winning the first two games.

I bought some $100 futures on Ottawa for $4 on WSEX after they lost Wednesday and were down 3-0.

Think about it one game at a time, they are back in Ottawa tomorrow, they win it's 3-2, they will only be an underdog in one game....like you said SS a bounce here or there and they are up 3-1.

actually, if they win game 5, I DOUBT they will even be an underdog in game 6,

the line will be something like Ottawa -120 Buffallo +100

Dont be so sure that THE SHRINK won anything, he was probably just HEDGING other bets he had on the Yankees or something, anyone can post a ticket on these forums, doesnt mean they actually won anything.

SHRINK's wager was actually quite silly, as Sick Gambler pointed out at the time

Hedge or not, that's still big money he would not have had otherwise.
