We have beef with DraftKings today. They had a promo for MNF, where you could bet on the first team to enter the red zone (in either game), and receive a 50% odds boost. They have apparently decided that the Steelers pick six counts as a red zone trip, grading this as a win if you bet on the Steelers and a loss if you bet on the Browns.
Ignoring the obvious fact that I picked the Browns and am mad that I lost the bet, this is just completely fucking retarded. No one who has ever watched football (and isn't a contrarian dickhead) would consider that "entering the red zone". In fact, the official NFL stats list the Steelers as having zero red zone trips in the entire game.
yeah it’s terrible and they should fix it. Legit.
Looks like they’re making it right. It’s ridiculous they got it wrong to begin with, but glad they’re doing the right thing here.
Did you degens hear this? FD offered +20000 lw for each NFL team playing in the 1 and 4 pm games to make a field goal. It hit. They had to pay out $20M
I put a bet in on the Pirates ML at +575 over Phillies during the first inning when it was 1-0 Phillies. The Phillies have nothing to play for. +575!!! It hit, Pirates 3-2.
I hit a +570 and a +1200 ln at $10 a pop. #OneUpper
My near miss that would have made it a really big night was a 3-leg parlay at +2657. Twas a bet I got from promoguy, but one of his legs was Gibbs under 19.5 receiving yards. The over and under were both -110 on FanDuel so this was a coin flip. I looked at lines elsewhere and saw that over was -130 and under was like +110 IIRC. To me this means that FD was actually offering better value on the over than the under, so I pivoted and took the over (which also bumped the odds of the parlay by a little bit even though over and under had the same odds as a single bet). Needless to say, the other 2 legs hit and Gibbs had 11 yards.
I’m not convinced I was actually wrong to take the over from a +EV perspective (not to mention he had a bad drop and also caught a screen pass for -5 yards so the over easily could have hit). But that one hurt.

Dirtdawg, thoughts?
lol what were the other two legs? The one I saw from him missed on Goff over 1.5 TDs

Lions -1.5 first half and Love TD. This one was promoguyUS, I think it was 123 that had the one with Goff over 1.5.
Per the discussion in the box, Iowa-Minnesota o/u is down to 31.5 Tied for the lowest in the past 20 years....with two other Iowa games.
Under hit on both of the previous two: 2022 Music City Bowl -- Iowa 21 Kentucky 0 (should be noted that there were 2 pick sixes here) 2022 Iowa 13 Minnesota 10 (shockingly, no defensive or special teams touchdowns in this one)
