They were something like 12:1 and 15:1. Not bad scores. I’m not even sure what made me bet parlays today but here we are. I didn’t know that the Joker was out to be honest, but it worked out. The Jazz, Timberwolves and Pelicans also came through with wins as I’d hoped. The Nuggets game was the final piece to the puzzle though.
That's nice, lucky break.
I ended up betting for the Nuggets too in my parlay which is a blind bet just to increase the parlay win.
I maybe was tempted because I bet early, it was -1.5 when it opened, but when Jokic was announced unavailable, the spread moved in favor of the Clippers. The home team should win the game against a visiting team that does not have their best player... This one turns into a big trap.
I knew it early, and the trick is if you cannot find them in player props. Bookies have the means to know who will play or not earlier than the news comes out.
Check it out, for all our bettors here. Injury reports can sometimes be deceiving but the bookies won't lie especially if the bet will just be voided later on.
7 games later.
Charlotte Hornets - Boston Celtics - Boston Celtics (-5.5)
Minnesota Timberwolves - Cleveland Cavaliers - Cleveland Cavaliers (-4.5)
Utah Jazz - Philadelphia 76ers - Philadelphia 76ers (-3.5)
Betting for road teams. This will be risky. Good luck to all of us.
