I was sweating a little bit tbh
I'm a degen, but I don't know enough about soccer gambling to bet on it. It seems like a negative EV proposition.
Do you bet on soccer regularly (I'm guessing yes, if you're putting down 4 large on round of 32 games)? What kind of returns are you getting?
Yes I bet soccer and boxing pretty regularly. I have noticed that draft kings contracts market suffers from liquidity issues and has strange lines from time to time. Other sports books had o2.5 with much worse odds than -163, so I hopped on it. For a visual example here was a boxing match that I bet on this weekend
Draft kings had Boots Ennis as a -240 favorite. Every other book had him at -600 to -700, so I loaded up all the contracts they had, which maxed out at $5k at a blended -263. Boots is probably the best American boxer out right now, and he easily winds the fight 90% of the time. He knocked the dude out in the 7th
