Assuming this is for real (i know, i know), I am amazed that you did not bother to at least hedge your original bet! Why be willing to lose it all when you could of at least assured that your mortgage loan would be paid back down in full. There is gambling and then there is stupidity. Since hypothetically you were looking to win 4.5 million, putting just $500,000 on Royals would still give you an extreme gamblers high while also being able to sleep at night knowing at worst you are back to even as if the huge ballsy bet never happened.
Please tell me you hedged after game 1. You still could have gotten an 'okay' hedge in place to cover the original bet while still winning 3 million if Mets take it. Should KC win game 2, you will really be hosed as hedging at that point will suck. Of course, I expect the Mets to be quite tough to beat at home since KC will not be using Kendrys Morales since the DH goes away.
