USC ML woes?

Do you suppose there are a handful of people in Vegas and nationwide that, for whatever reason, put way more money than they could afford on the USC money line, which was -8000/+4000?

I mean, in Vegas you have to put your money up front, but I'm sure there are still a few people with the money who bet like 1K on USC and are now stuck 80K.

As far as nationwide, I would imagine there are some guys who are stuck a couple hundred bucks, which may be big to them like a college student or something, and they do something stupid like put 200 on USC to get even so they don't have to tell their parents and now all of a sudden they are stuck $16,200 and are just freaking out right now.

For some reason, I think about this crap.

Um right.

"who bet like 1k on USC" So how are they stuck 80K? They bet like 1k, not 80k.

Anyway this type of shiat happens all the time. I really doubt that a bookie took $16K in action from but a select few players who they know are good for it, not like they line up a bunch of college kids to hook them for $16K.

You really shouldn't think about this crap. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

If someone bet their savings on USC then they got what they deserve. SHould have backed the best team in the nation, tOSU. Spread was good enough, no need to back the tOSU ML. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Thremp, I've looked but I can't for the life of me find what 'SMP' is.

I meant bet 80K to win 1K. Sorry.

Thanks. I'm surprised that didn't show anywhere.

5dimes had +10000/-19000 last I checked. 100 on SF would have been golden, heck shoot 10 would still get u 1K.

UM is off the hook now.

Well that person would be a frickin' retard who apparently has never seen a heavily favored team lose ever.
