UConn 150 to 1

[Matt1010]

There were no odds on UConn before the 13-14 season. We were in the field. There were odds on roughly 125-150 other teams including ridiculous long shots like Bradley and Evansville.

I bet them preseason, depends on the book but odds were definitely available.

Who exactly in Vegas is giving 150-1? Just did a quick search last night and vegasdotcom is giving us 100-1. I have a coalition seriously considering of making an investment.

 

[Hey Adrien!]

50-1 odds now.

Kentucky's roster was decimated and they've just missed on 2 high level recruits. How are they still 10-1? I guess a lot of people believe in the Calimari hype.

Looking at that list, Vegas views UConn as a top-30 team. That's a fair projection, IMO.

If you do hit me up, I will gladly contribute towards that

I got a bet in at Caesars at 100-1 (5/1/15) was the only casino on the strip that wasn't 50-1

You could not be more wrong:

Never understood why people say things which are just completely untrue.

Yep. I placed my bet in vegas before that season.

Wasnt UConn 100-1 in 2014 before the tournament in many sportsbooks?

Yes. I tried to get $100 down at 100 to 1 at the start, but my kids wouldn't place it because the odds had gone down to 75 to 1 by the time they stopped partying and went to the window. I ca'n't beliee I still love them.

Why didn't they place it at 75-1? For a $100 it makes no sense to not still take it.

Did you hedge 3k on Kentucky?

They tried to get me to clear it, and the tourney started before I could get back to them. They tried that morning. It just would have been nice had they tried the night before when they got in, instead of just going clubbing. Their drinks that night cost me $7500.

 

[Jerry1714]

Yea

 

[Matt1010]

Yea

Do you do that all online or in Vegas?

I use a local who operates it online

With the Gibbs rumor crystalizing, you are now looking like a genius.

The odds go to what with Gibbs?

 

[OkaForPrez]

The odds go to what with Gibbs?

I'd guess the 50:1 they are at right now goes to a 35:1 range but should be more like 20-25:1

 

[Matt1010]

For anyone that uses online offshore books, 5dimes released us at 115/1 yesterday which is INSANE value. I have used them before and cashed out a couple grand on our last championship. They just put up a $100 limit as I was putting down as much as possible but strongly recommend this for you gamblers.

I was in Vegas this week. I wanted to place a bet on UConn to win the NC next year but the odds were 25 to 1. I declined that bet. I only checked one casino though.

Better off taking them money line for each game in the tourney and rolling it over to the next game.

I've got a friend who kept betting against the Huskies with a double down each time in the 2014 tourney. He lost $12,000. Idiot. Good luck everybody.

Good point. I may do just that.

The best odds in Vegas after I left were 75/1 (Westgate) 70/1 (Wynn). I bought a ticket for dad as a birthday gift @100/1 (Westgate). The 150/1 at Cantor books is now 30/1. The ticket posted above was a big reason. After winning in 2013-14 at Wynn I pretty much am no longer a futures player. I may be back out there in September though to play poker. I can pick up a ticket for a BY'er if I am out there. Just send me a PM. Have a great day! Good luck to this guy who got the best odds in Vegas.
