I laid $50 on a 2 team parlay back in March…
LSU to win the World Series
Brewers to win the World Series
Pays $10,800

The current buyout is $300… what buyout would you be looking for before you pulled the trigger on it?

Brewers are locks for the playoffs and should make the divisional round minimum.

Should I just wait and see what happens?

There’s no realistic, sober-minded scenario where the Brewers win the World Series this year.

What is the overall payout if the second leg hits?

You can't go wrong making 500% on the cash out

I’d say cash out for $300 now, but what are their current odds to win the WS? If it will improve in playoffs, then cash out should increase

^I’d ignore the very biased opinion of a Braves fan

If someone is giving you a buyout with some hope that the Brewers are going to win the World Series, then you take that buyout immediately and wonder how that was even possible.

The Brewers have very little chance at winning the World Series. They are likely the 7th best odds to win it, at best.

That’s not true.

Woodruff
Freddie
Burns

That’s an elite 3 man rotation for a playoff series.

Can’t evaluate the buyout without knowing the payout if you let it ride. It’s late in the day but I don’t see that in the OP.

Brewers are not winning the world series. They are a bottom 7 team hitting right handed pitching.

This.

Right now they're +2400:

You could cash out then place a new bet on the Brewers. Best of both worlds.

My thought is to let it ride till the playoffs and assume that the $300 offer will only increase as the playoffs progress

This was probably said about the Braves in 2021 too.

Damn. $50 straight bet on LSU winning the world series should of paid at least $300 back in March. Surprised it isnt offering a little more.
