I live in Phoenix. 500 and ill drive up at 4pm tonight and place the bet. Wire you the money or your choice. I'd make the flight but I get the whole day wasted in airport for you. I go every month. I'll make this trip since I don't have my kids this weekend. Plus it would raise my players status to Diamond.

Nice call on Green Bay. I won a grand as well. 30K would've been better. Cutler was in a cutler mode today...

You must be miserable now that you missed out 29k. Hope you got more 1k on the game.

SOME OFF YOU GUYS ARE SUCH LITTLE GIRLZS  .Because the guy is saying hes betting a large amount .,You get these little  punks wasiting there time just to post   FADE  and that's it ,They don't even have the knowledge of the game  to say why FADE???  Not sure why they are such punks ,but covers seems to always draw a few    Just because you either bet $10/ 5 team parlays  or are taking moms change to bet, doesn't mean  that others aren't betting very large ,  You dsont have to even post ur ticket ,who cares.  The only thing that matters is it WON .Besides the COLTS the PACKERS were the easiest pick if you bet the Bears,you don't know the game ,your cluless on matchups ,you bet based on last weeks results solely   . Like I said these pussies like   RUDY 22 ,YELAWOLF,JOHN1c   ,with the moronic icon   need to grow the F up      BY THE WAY IM SURE NONE OF YOU PUNKS WILL BE SAYING SHTTT TODAY ABOUT PACKERS CRUSHING >I hope HOFSTRA (long island  ,good job)did have 30k on it    and know u don't have to post the ticket .they don't post theres ....

lol sure he got 30K to wager on one game LMFAO I know people in Vegas I bet there through an old friend of mines.

 

NO BODY has $30,000 in this forum to wager on a single NFL game YOU all post monopoly money picks bunch of attention h o es is all i read about This team Large that team huge etc...

After games are done and the picks went 1 -3 they never come back so the thread stays buried on page 6.

I told my buddy we needed to fly to Vegas to put 50K on the Vikings over the Falcons because when the line opened at -3 you knew the entire world would be betting the Falcons after they destroyed TB and Vikes turning to rookie QB after a mediocre game against the Saints.

Then I told my buddy that even though the Vikes were lock of the century no way I could bet them because the Falcons just killed TB and you know they are gonna kill the Vikes.

Thank you Nuggins, I have also placed bets that size before, Typically  I do it when I am in Vegas, Not with my local because  if I have that large of an account its just bad news cause those bets should be reserved for GOYs etc... also
