Took the special for the NBA's playoff matchup for tonight and applied your strategy too see which odds would be better and these are the results:

Best of luck on the Mavs bet, I also think they can close the series today, and like rohang mentioned, Luka is always getting enough points to hit the over so it only comes down to the Mavs if they can win or not.

Tried to boost the odds but putting it on the special didn't seem to work.

note: just tried to apply the price boost feature to the betbuilder to compare the odds to the special and it worked:

The one I posted the other day was a rare case, it doesn't happen regularly because the special odds would also adjust, but it doesn't hurt to always check in case there's a big difference between the two.

@ralle14 @danherbias07 @rohang

It looks like the Sportsbet Special hit for everybody who took it @3.90x which was well worth it!
And yes ralle14 it is rare to get the price boost to work with the special but it can be done.
As you mentioned it must be dependent on your wagered amount or some variable such as this so to have it be applied without any issues.

Luka Doncic scored 20 points in the first quarter and outscored the entire Minnesota team!
The match ended with a 124-103 so I know danherbias07 had a bet on the over from the nba betting thread so that was a good prediction and win for him too!

Won atleast 3 betslips just from this one nba game totaling 65mbtc, so it was the one and only day I had actually ended in the green from betting on the NBA. So quite a good way to start the weekend.

Now it is time to make your choice on who you think will win this Champions League and get to hoist the trophy at the end of it all.

[arallmuus]

Now it is time to make your choice on who you think will win this Champions League and get to hoist the trophy at the end of it all.

Boy oh boy, I totally would have taken this the odds for Real Madrid is around 2.2-2.4 or something but nah 1.95 as well as over 1.5 goals doesnt seems to be that good enough.

Personally would want Dortmund to win, I had made a single double chance bet on Dortmund or draw so yeah but odds wise I might as well take Real Madrid though if I get a good odds on them.

Half time 0-0 or draw could be a good be a good bet as well I think? Im always a sucker when it comes to 0-0 halftime betting LOL

You were spot on for the 0-0 score after the first half @arallmuus so congratulations if you took them at those odds. Because usually I take the goal less draw for fulltime and those are @5-6x at times in the EPL.
Don't know what the at the half odds would've been for just one half.
But an interesting prediction and slamming it if you did man!

The Special hit and yeah they were at 1.95x which don't feel too juicy but if you had the rarity that myself and ralle14 had mentioned and the price boost applied from your account worked on it, then they would of been closer to what you wanted them to be over the 2.00x mark for your liking.

It was a nice Champions League Final as many had it go this way on their bets.

Game 1 of the NBA Finals is already listed in Sportsbet but the props are still not there.
But, for those who want to take advantage of it, you will get x2.94 for the Dallas Mavericks if they are your bet on this series.


I don't see any specials yet for this game but maybe it will come out before 24 hours before the game starts. I am actually waiting for it so that I can take advantage of the higher odds that will be given. Will probably monitor this one but my demons are calling me to make a bet now so that I won't regret it if the odds suddenly go down or whatever surprising things happen. I will put a bit of money now and wait if it goes up in the specials.

Don't forget the WNBA too, we have 4 games later.

I am going to parlay those favorites and see where it goes.

WNBA is quite interesting to follow when the NBA has nearly a week off between the last series closing and the Finals beginning.
So fair play in showing us the different basketball league so to continue on our bets until game 1 starts in the NBA play-offs.
 
Meanwhile, danherbias07 has a thread dedicated to the WNBA is go follow him there if you are get interested after the NBA championship has conclided:
WNBA discussion thread - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5493762.msg63977802#msg63977802

Since you posted the NBA game 1 odds for the play-offs already. I doubt the odds have changed much since it is a few more days away and both teams on resting up their players.

We have Sportsbet.io Specials available with the NBA play-offs as one and the other one quite strange to see:

You have until June 6th to guess their turnover?

Winning UCL wasnt enough and madrid has already signed Mbappe   

https://www.realmadrid.com/en-US/news/football/first-team/latest-news/mbappe-nuevo-jugador-del-real-madrid-03-06-2024

Hes apparently taking a paycut on a free transfer
Feel bad for PSG who didnt get to cash in on his transfer fee 

[rdbase]

Mbappe signing with Real Madrid was inevitable but I believe with them becoming Champions sealed the deal.
With a player like that will only make them stronger for next season and it was not going to end any other way.

Destined champion going with a championship team so they gel well together @rohang !

Took the Sportsbet.io Special yesterday:

On the news about bitcoin rising along with another country getting their ETF approved one after the other it is also inevitable that bitcoin will have it's price increase aswell.
And since that bet it had over 3%. Green days ahead for anybody who holds bitcoin!

Time to place your bets for the NBA Finals guys.

From x2.94 (my last post) to 3.05

https://sportsbet.io/sports/basketball/usa/nba/matches
Sweeter. I am a Mavericks fan so I am taking that.
But what could be the reason behind it? It was said in the last series of Boston Celtics against the Indiana Pacers that Kristaps Porzingis is nearly returning to play. That could be it.
So if you are a fan of the Celtics, you are lucky because that deepens the rotation of their players and they will have a big man now who can also defend well inside the paint.

Still, I think the Dallas  Mavericks will try to snatch one game from Boston because this will be one of the keys to winning this Finals game. Start it strong.
Good luck everyone.

Very good points made there danherbias07!

The Finals are upon us and the over week long wait has finally arrived for the NBA to return to our screens for us to place our best bets on!

It is true that "The Unicorn" Kristaps Porzingis is in fact ready to return just intime for game 1 of the Finals series.
As you can see from the props options he is one of the players available to place bets on:

They should of put him on the Sportsbet Special for rebounds to make it even juicer for the odds but @3.30x why not throw some mbtc on it and see what happens.

https://sportsbet.io/sports/sportsbet-specials/matches/today

Same as what I done with the special from yesterday I posted and it won!

[ralle14]

Time to place your bets for the NBA Finals guys.

It went down again to 2.98, and there could be more action on the side of the Mavs now that we're nearing kick-off.

I also hope the Mavs can win this first game so I can win my round on the BSFL, but i'm not confident enough to bet on them winning straight up as the Celtics are like the final boss of this playoffs. That said, I have this bet on the Celtics to cover the first half.

That daily special could've been interesting if it was paired with another market since Tatum could go under now that the Celtics have more options with KP back in the lineup.

It didn't matter in the end as the Boston Celtics took game 1 cleanly and decisively.
Think they were up 19 points at the half(they had the record in the playoffs ever for the quarter or half) and had the largest lead of 29 points. But Luka did try and make a show of it with outscoring the whole team in the second half at one point 20 to 15. So he was the only offensive strike they had.

Kristaps Porzingis was the man in the first quarter scoring alot off of great passing and slamming in the paint.
Think he scored a few threes just to show he still has that unicorn-style release from the arc.
It was his night in Boston for his debut in these playoffs after a long stretch on the bench due to injury.

Tatum caused the special not to hit as he only had 16 points.

This series seems like it is going to be one-way traffic but we will have to see when it lands in Dallas and the Luke & Kyrie show can begin again.

[ralle14]

Tatum caused the special not to hit as he only had 16 points.

My hunch was right, the Celtics are too versatile so it's hard to expect a big performance from Tatum.

I also had a bunch of bets on the French Open earlier today, and they all made it look easy by cashing my bets after the second set.

After watching both matches, Alcaraz will probably win it all after seeing him almost go down 2-0 then turning it all around in the fifth set.

[rdbase]

@ralle14

We made similar bets because there wasn't really anything else to bet on and these matches were early in the day.
We had the same mindset with this match going past 3 sets:


Alcaraz was not looking so hot at the beginning and I actually had Sinner to win with over 39.5 games in a combination bet. But of course that one lost with him going to the finals at Roland Garros.
The match right after with Zverev was easy for the German as he made it under 34.5 games which I also lost on another betslip.

The WTA Finals is today so already have my bet for Swiatek to win it in straight sets as it is her opponent's first time reaching this far into the French Open. So nerves of course will affect her play. But Iga has been to many final matches so the world's #1 should make it a walk in the park.

what was the odds?

I checked at sportsbet though, its only 1.25 for Swiatek to win 2-0, thats pretty low aint it?. Im seriously thinking of putting 2-1 as correct score at the odds of 4.0. I really need Paolini to win a set against Swiatek. She won against Rybakina though so its kinda a wishful thinking that Im assuming that she would score atleast one set, really hope she does lol

Those odds exactly!
But I have it in a 5-leg acca @12.53x so they were all around those odds except for one which I won't say until it hits.

Forgot to add Alcaraz to the betslip to get it even higher total odds and he was @1.36x to win the French Open for tomorrow against Sinner in the final. So another low odds wager I would of added on if I had just remembered to do it.

Atleast this weekend we have more options to choose from in F1, Esports, NBA & UFC along with tennis in our betting.
As for your question on Paolini: She has improved since she was ranked around 52 earlier in the year but come Monday will be ranked much closer to the top in reaching the finals with the likes of Swiatek.
But it is the WTA so weirder things can happen and she is @9.80x to win it.

https://sportsbet.io/sports/event/tennis/wta/french-open-women-singles/swiatek-iga-v-paolini-jasmine-6661e55aaafd2b00016010ba

So if you are feeling lucky, why not go for the ML on Paolini?

[rohang]

New NBA specials is up-



This time the odds are lower but i like this line even more

Tatum has got a DD in 4 out of last 5 playoff games, this definitely should hit and 2.6 odds isnt bad either 

[arallmuus]

Dang I really hope you hit this one mate ! Its been a while since I parlay my bet, it seems I've been doing well lately on average of 2x odds so yeah I'll stick with that for the mean time

Forgot to add Alcaraz to the betslip to get it even higher total odds and he was @1.36x to win the French Open for tomorrow against Sinner in the final. So another low odds wager I would of added on if I had just remembered to do it.

Not against Sinner, it will be against Zverev but hey Zverev is going to wreck him up tomorrow. Mark my words  

So if you are feeling lucky, why not go for the ML on Paolini?

Nah thats too much, Swiatek is the best right now and I totally mean it. If she plays like this on all upcoming tournament, she is going to win everything so the least that I can hope for would be Paolini to snatch a set against her but Im gonna admit that its actually quite unlikely as well so yeah cross your fingers
