Betting Highlights
Favorite Bet of All-Time
The longest parlay I've ever hit was seven legs at +3995 odds -- and it was in UFC, which I know next to nothing about. Thankfully, we work with experts, so I had their advice to rely on (even in my reckless building of parlays with too many legs). The final leg cashed on the last fight of the night ... which my guy won by decision.
Most Heartbreaking Bet
The worst beat of my life was actually in fantasy football -- heading into Monday Night Football of an NFL week, I was trailing my opponent by 45 points, and a massive night from Mark Andrews was my only (seemingly hopeless) hope. Well, Andrews scored 44.7 PPR points in regulation and was targeted heavily on the final drive of the fourth quarter then ... Lamar Jackson didn't target Andrews at all in overtime. I lost by 0.3 points.
