      So many dummies don't know sh^t about ********.

      A draw is a push. So everyone gets their money back that bet on Canelo or GGG. On standard lines anyway. There are "prop" lines that offer slightly better payouts that are specifically on a fighter winning & a draw would be a L. Those aren't the typical lines sports books often offer & usually tend to be the lesser used lines cuz of bump in payouts isn't THAT much & the draw is such a long odds outcome anyway but its a nice lil save potentially.

        In uk you dont get your money back unless you Draw was not available to bet on or you can sometimes choose to bet on a winner on a "draw no bet" market where a draw is a push

          LOL yea mine to.

          If anyone legit lost money on this fight on GGG or Canelo they bet on one of those less commonly used prop/speciality betting lines that instead of being +140 on Canelo & a draw being a push that'd cancel the bet woulda been like +148 & a draw would be a L for your wager.

            Me too!!! I literally started keeping myself by the 11th round, because I was thinking if someone doesn't score a KO or KD here this fight could be a draw on my card. I looked at the options last week and my mind say put money on a Canelo UD win or a draw. But I chickened out.

              Yes, I agree that's ******..


              I scored it 114-114. Canelo won first 3 rds, and last 3 rds.

                My buddy put $20 on 15/1 for a draw and won $280 + his $20 back. Then his girl won the pool at my place for $120. Not bad, not bad at all.

                  I don't care about the casinos but I bet the draw so was happy

                  I was torn between aging GGG and priming Canelo so ended up leaving the $25 I had on a draw as my only bet for the event.

                  I mentioned my draw bet before the fight on here and reasons for thinking it was far more probable than the odds said... especially given the politics.

                  I made roughly $500 profit from my $25 bet... not bad, can't complain.

                  Shame my tennis betting sucks as I've cleaned up with May/Mac and now this. Happy with my boxing analysis.
