Dipped my toe in tennis props when I saw them, last night for today. Seems too easy.  Would like to try more, but they dont have any tonight for tomorrow.  

Going to have to learn to check more often. Props are so random.

I have emailed them every week about the props only being offered right before game time and delayed grading. They keep assuring me they have a new system in the works that will fix it all, but they can't give me an ETA

[bostonlager 2,678]

I have never dipped my toe into tennis, but I remember John Bender used to be pretty good at it when I posted in the other wagering thread down the street. I may have to take a look and see how it goes. 

[RogerDodger 798]

Tennis and NBA props.  Tennis are under the normal prop button.  

[RogerDodger 798]

Ouch. Never had so many props get wiped out by injury before.  

[RogerDodger 798]

5-1-1 on UFC tonight and there is a new horse in the lead.  

Choi gets a point taken away for such a minor headbutt, should have been 6-1.  Minor enough they went to replay and it deserves a point?

why do some people get player props? I don’t see them

[WhiteWonder 2,924]

i almost added another $25 to the pot before realizing people can just wager all their points on weird celebrity type props. Gambling is gambling I guess

The sports props happen randomly.  For football, IF they were offered for that particular game they would pop up 30 minutes or less prior to the game start and not stay for long.  Some of the playoff games they went up early in the day, but then the night games there weren't any.  

I caught some basketball and tennis props a couple weeks ago just by checking at night.  But I haven't seen any random sports like that for a week or so.

If available they pop up in a second "sports prop" button.  So if you see two sports prop buttons that means there are some available other than the limited season long ones they have that are there all the time.

I'm going to sit down tonight and get all my SB stuff in across 5 books and our contest. I wish we still had the spreadsheet you mentioned from back in the day.

I wish I had more time at work to mess around with it this year.  I'm just posting stuff as it crosses my mind in the other thread and see if I have time to write it all down later or not.

Y’all doing pretty good so far.  That’s 50 units in less than 2 months for a $10 bettor. You’re lucky to get that from a guy charging 500-1k per year for picks.  

[Horseman 2,684]

C'mon Props Master!  Was good for a while. Guy has gone back to working one day a week. 

[edjr 6,898]

I was wondering what you lost your nut on. The app wouldn’t let me scroll down far enough to click on you. 
 

Still better than 90s baby who has it all on some trump prop

That he won't drop out

[WhiteWonder 2,924]

Well that about does it for me. I wasn’t going to mess with Arizona but I figured I’d bet it all moneyline on as many 1s and 2s as possible today. Should have held off for Texas. 

[WhiteWonder 2,924]

How is this app so terrible?

i had 176 left. Tried to wager 46 on Texas AM and the other 130 on ucla. Both ML

just trying to claw my way back after Arizona killed me  

now the app says I am in 8th with -46 and 168 in play? And I can’t scroll down to click on myself and see what my current wagers are. Is there another spot to see?

I would love to find an alternative to this app site. I love the idea, but won't be using it again. I had to pay for us to have a private league. Fock that.

Can you see what my current active wagers are? After dukes win I should have been at 176. I made a 46 wager on Texas AM and when I submitted it it out me in last at -46 with 168 in play . I have no idea what happened. 
 

I was then going to use the remaining 130 on UCLA moneyline to probably win 10 haha.

I see it. Terrible app. Good thing ed is out. Whoever is in last place can't click on their name to make bets. 

[bostonlager 2,678]

ETA - You can't get to your stuff now. I emailed them all sorts of vulgarities during NFL playoffs with their late grading. I gave up.

So confused I have no clue what bets went through or how their math put me in the negative  

oh well whatever.

It would be awesome if they had a site set up like a real sportsbook where you can make all bets like parlays and teasers. I would gladly pay a fee and play for money in a league.

The moneyline stuff they have is way off too. Kansas was -1100ish on the app. All of my books had them in the -10000 range.

My experience has been that the totals sometimes temporarily add up wrong while bets are outstanding, but, eventually everything washes out and it corrects itself.  The -46 was for a graded bet on A&M while a bet on Duke wasn't graded for a while.

I've never had a problem scrolling to the bottom once everything loads, but yeah, why put the new bets at the bottom instead of at the top.  I'm approaching 300 bets placed and it sucks having to scroll through all those every time.

i mean, sure but before placing my A&M bet (which lost anyway), the Duke bet was showing as graded out. . So I would assume my bet on UCLA did not go through. 

like I said, whatever

That makes sense and it must not have gone through as it doesn't show a bet on UCLA and your total now is 130.  

[Horseman 2,684]

On my iphone it loads and takes bets relatively fast.  On my samsung tablet it loads really slow and sometimes the bets timeout and don't go through so I have to keep checking to make sure.

bets go through pretty quickly on my iphone. I've never had that issue where it shows a bet as being graded out and then acts as if it wasn't. Then again, I've never tried to squeeze bets in so quickly as I was yesterday with tourney games. 

The other issue is once they consider you to be in last place (which they did because of my -46 total based on that goof up on their end... and that proves it was their goof up because it wouldnt allow me to go into the negative otherwise) then I can't click on my name to see which bets went through... hence I had no idea about the UCLA wager. 

[edjr 6,898]

Do I win anything for 1st person to 0? Can I buy back in?

[patweisers44 865]

Virgina and  w. Virginia killed me yesterday

[Horseman 2,684]

@bostonlager smoking, on fire!  That Xhavier game was nuts.  

Its a good thing for the rest of us March madness only comes once a year. 

I was making hay on props, but, they seemed to have vanished.  

MMA let's go!

I would have kept pace with ya if Usman would have won.  I can't believe he didn't come out with more intensity/pressure.  I need them to start offering props again.
