A PERFECT example of how books set lines and don't know what they hell they are doing. You want in?

Yes, it is. I check back and now is at over 65.5 -115. I throw a couple hundred just for the value alone. Thanks, Sal.

SCAL a couple things I want to say hopefully you get back to me before the contest.

I've been watching Matt Stonie videos on youtube for about two years now. He's a beast. He also took the contest down last year.

You know all this already.

I was pissed when my local who has an overseas style website, wasn't offering odds on the contest.

I wanted Stonie.

What are the odds for Stonie vs Chestnut.

Also in 2012 CHESTNUT put up 68

in 2013 he put up 69.

Wow. amazing.

Today only needs 66 for you to cash.

in 2014 he put up 61

in 2015 he put up 60

Now I don't know about hot dog eating trends but I feel you are putting way too much into his qualifying score , and not much into his actual score from this contest last two years. Qualifying is different. I don't even know why he'd go so hard during qualifiers.

I don't know how eating 73.5 dogs two weeks ago will affect him today. He can also throw up. People going all in on this contest are insane.

I think at -165, it is spot on.

-165 is not cheap. It is the favorite.

Can Chestnut eat 64 dogs?

Sure can. Has done it many times.

Did it two weeks ago.

Can Chestnut not eat 64 dogs?

Sure can.

Happened last two times at this same event, on this same day, at this same location!

I think this has ZERO value Scal. But good luck. I have no action.

I figured someone would ask this and I counter with, "Would you have rather him have eaten 53.5 dogs a week ago?"

The stomach expands. Just the fact he did this at all at any time shows he has the capacity to down a record amount of dogs, never done in human history in that time.

Hot Dogs are like mountains. They don't change. Climb it once you can certainly climb it again. And Hot Dogs are far easier in that regard.

Teams? They adjust. If you beat a team by 50 today you can lose by 50 tomorrow. Just ask the Spurs when they played OKC.

Dogs? They don't adjust. But your stomach does. And we know Chestnut's stomach adjusted to down this amount of dogs!

You are looking at 'value' in terms of sports betting.

Hot dog eating is not a traditional competitive sport.

It is man vs. FOOD NOT man vs. team.

Hot Dogs do NOT adjust and HOT DOGS are not motivated to beat you like teams.

-165 in that regard is FREE MONEY. The books are not geniuses here. In fact they've adjust this line all the way up from -165 to -250 and even -300 on sites.

That ALONE speaks to how much value it has now with regard to this post.

If you want in, you have about 5 minutes. It's free money even at

-200 plus...

66.

Everyone wins.

And more coming.

70

Wow. That was incredible - 70 dogs down the gullet. Happy for Joey.

Hell of scout and tip Scal...thank you.

Great call, Scal !

Well done and well capped I suppose Scal

Sucked to see my boy Stonie go down. Chestnut was on a mission this year. Apparently you saw that.
