1H unders was a huge trend last year. 15-4-1 in the first four and first round. I threw $10 on all of them and we'll see what happens. 2-2 in the first four

Draftkings has a nice Gonzaga ML boost to +100 odds. $50 max bet, free $50 essentially.

I have my $50 on it, but wouldn't it be funny if they lose? Assuming the majority of DK customers took that, that'd be a pretty damn big loss on one game.

Of course DK would probably give everyone a free bet for the 'bad beat', like they've done in the past anyway.

Ok I need help. What would you do in this scenario.

I bet $27.73 at +2200 to win $637.39 if UNC wins the national championship. Would you just let that ride, or hedge? And if you hedge what Would you bet and how much?

Right now the line is KU -4. KU ML is -180

Odds are a bit high. If you were to bet $200 you would win $111 so only $85 in profit.

You could live bet it. Say UNC gets up 8-2 quick, the odds would have came down significantly and you could live bet whatever amount you want to try and get the $300 profit

That's tough. WDSM probably has the best idea with a potential live bet if the opportunity presents itself. I personally think South Carolina WBB wins tomorrow handily so I'd be tempted to parlay SC and KU at +130ish if I were you, but understand the added risks involved with that.

Interesting idea. But yeah, there is some risk with that too.
