BetMGM actually had a money line on Georgia -Kent State. I bet $1000 to win $10. Georgia is up TEN in the 4th quarter, and it could have been just EIGHT! They were 44.5 point favorites…. Gulp….
So I tried to find the correlated parlays ksdjdj has been touting, but either the parlay was disallowed, or instead of being +260 or so they were only +170 or so!
But…. I was able to parlay the underdog (Kent State) +44.5 and Over 61.5 and got a whopping +575!!! It may not go over but it’s close now. That must have been +EV.

Sorry, you missed it by this "" much.
. Last night I missed a pretty big parlay when my team missed XP (meaningless for the game result) at the end of the game.Quote: DRichQuote: SOOPOO

FanDuel gave everyone a free bet who lost their ‘special parlay boost’ which included Steelers plus 7.5. Best Offer of the day was BetRivers. Deposit $100 and get a free $100 bet.
I won my $10 on Georgia but probably not my best idea….
Assuming 44.5 and 61.5 was "the 50/50 line", then:
fav ' x under = ~11.91%
fav ' x over = ~ 32.85%
'dog x under = ~ 38.09%
'dog x over = ~ 17.15%
'dog x over = ~17.15% x $6.75 (+575) = ~115.74% *** RTP = +15.74% EV
***: Used the "non-rounded" figures to get this estimated RTP.
Note: I normally don't bet on the " 'dog x over", or "fav' x under", unless I am offsetting (but it doesn't change the fact that I think this was a "good bet").

"All games, I could have bet on":
Unlucky^^^ for me, the withdrawal I was waiting on since Tuesday didn't arrive, so I couldn't take the correlated parlays/doubles.
^^^: I haven't checked results for the other games yet, but below were the "best ones" that I would have bet on if I could.

Air Force -24.5 / Over 46.5 @ +260

Other :
In the Kent State / Georgia game, lucky for me the first score was a TD (I think only 6 of the 13 scores were a TD).
Note 1: They are all for the 1st quarter "line x totals".
Note 2: If any win, I should get about a $40k return, on average.
Note 3: All odds are decimal odds

Akron +7.5 / Under 13.5

CONGRATS: You got the Akron game.
Quote: DRichGood luck with your bets. I couldn't imagine having any faith in Akron. I didn't expect them to win a game this year. I also like Hugh Freeze the head coach at Liberty. Hopefully the Zips can keep it close for one quarter.
CONGRATS: You got the Akron game.

If i had time, I would have put in "Liberty x Over" for the first quarter, too.
But, I though I wouldn't have enough time to get all of them on (I only ended up having 5 minutes to spare, for the above bets anyway).
----
Update (~1615, Pac Time):
It looks likely that my "Kentucky,,," part of the bet is going to be a loser (but there is still 9 minutes to go).
----
Update 2 (~1635, Pac Time):
All bets have lost now (because "Kentucky x Over in the 1st Quarter" lost)
I still would have targeted the same options^^^, if I was given a similar choice***
^^^: With more funds available, I would have just bet on individual games, though.
***:: With more time, I probably would have tried to bet the "opposites" .
Also, the best ones "on paper" this week were probably:
1st Quarter:
NC State -9.5 / Over 10.5 @ $4.25 (+325)
Connecticut +9.5 / Under 10.5 @ $3 (+200)
