Happy Tourney day!!!!!!!!!! (Part 2!)
Fox Bet continues to have issues and things have been popping up and disappearing. I just want everyone to be aware. Fox Bet does not even have an NBA section at the moment. What is happening there?
Yesterday, I tweeted that I live bet Tennessee +7 using the Draft Kings boost. They lost and did not cover, yet when I logged in, I had won. Why? Apparently, after a few adult beverages, I live bet Loyola Chicago -7 instead. Oops. It was nice to make a mistake and have it work out.
I did make a few NCAA bets for the first two days of the tourney. I tend to love bet the tourney a ton as I think you can get a feel and watch how teams and coaches adjust. I will be all over Twitter the next few days in addition to the normal articles; I will be talking more about college the next few days.
I have added two futures in Florida State at +4000 and Illinois at +700. That gives me WVU, ILL, and FSU. Notice that the teams I am taking cannot meet until much deeper in the tourney.
I also got really wild and threw and tiny wager on Illinois to win the title and Bryson to win the Masters at +8100, sure why not. Draft Kings will allow you to do these things. I also have Bryson at +1700 and Xander at +3600 to win the Masters from bets I made a while ago. Reminder, if you get free bets you should try and use them this way!
Until the games start, let’s have some fun and build the pile!

NBA Odds Boosts You Should Consider Betting
Simmons to record a double-double and Sixers to win +200 (FD)
I am confused here because if you parlay this on Fan Duel it pays +261. So, yeah, I would pass on this boost.
Sixers/Warriors/Clippers to all win +450 (DK)
I swear they are trying to trick people who may not realize that Curry is hurt. While he may play, that seems unlikely, especially when you consider the spread. This is a boost as it should pay +373 or so, however, I am never backing the Warriors as a road dog on a back-to-back without Steph Curry. Pass.
Giannis to record a triple-double and Bucks to win +415 (DK)
Giannis is +440 on Fan Duel to record a triple-double. Hard pass on this “boost.”
NCAA Odds Boosts You Should Consider Betting
Oklahoma and USC to win +210 (FD)
This is a boost as it should pay +167. While I do get the love for USC in this spot, the OK/Mizz game feels like a true coinflip as the spread indicates. As usual, if you liked these two before this boost, then fire away. If you did not, then pass. I will be passing.
Creighton/Oklahoma/Uconn to win +340 (DK)
DK for the second straight day puts teams in the same game in different boosts, locking up one win for the book for sure. This is a boost as it should pay around +310. I am passing, but if you liked it before you saw this boost, fire away!
LSU/Mizz to win +280 (DK)
Just like the rest it is a tiny boost as it should pay +228. They really took two games with the smallest spreads and put them together. I am passing.
Daily 25% live bet boost on DK
I am 100% using this every day. I will post my plays on twitter!
20% profit boost on any 4+ leg parlay (DK)
I was not able to use this, but maybe you can? Perhaps I read the terms wrong. Good luck.
Nova to win the title +4000 (Fox)
I bet against them in round one. I am out on them completely.
Michigan to make the Final Four +200 (Fox)
They lost a starter to injury and he may not play the entire tourney. This is not a boost as DK has them at +200 to make the final four. Pass on this boost.
OK ST to make the Final Four +650 (Fox)
They have the number one pick in the NBA draft, but I have bet Illinois to win the title. Small boost here as OK ST is +600 to make the final four. Maybe, if you have Illinois, this could make sense as a hedge with plus money.
Virginia to make the Final Four +1200 (Fox)
I have bet against them as well in round one, plus they are in Gonzaga’s bracket. Virginia is +1000 to make the final four on DK, so it is a boost, but I am passing. COVID issues and the ACC has been down this year. Moreover, they have to go through Gonzaga. Pass.
