Anybody have money on the Giants in those Super Bowls versus the Pats ? I had NE -2.5 -125 in the second match up for 1K.
I didn't bet the first match between the two, because I was busy gambling in a casino.
I did bet the Giants in their second game and won 2K. In my opinion, it was the bomb to the left sideline on their last drive that won the game for the Giants as the pass was perfect where only their receiver could have caught it. That's pretty much all I remember about the game. The spread for that game was New England -3, so I was a bit nervous when the score was 17-12 but it worked out somehow.
I did lose 5.5K in 2004 when I bet the Patriots vs the Panthers. The last TD by Carolina screwed me, but I got a lot more back when the Patriots play the Eagles the following year where I flew out to Vegas and walked to every casino to get the best ML odd on the Patriots and bet 40K on the Patriots at Golden Nugget and won 20K at -200 ML odd.
I almost gave back most of it playing $100 minimum blackjack, but I ended up playing $500 a hand to get it all back plus a little profit so I quit.
