Now it's getting a little more serious with Carlos/Iga in the Qfs with the current cashout at $15,535 (I'll just post the top 2 tickets [16 total 🎫 ] for each site for brevity purposes with GSW already a winner since that's a WCF bet) If Alcaraz loses to Novak in the SFs like most expect (not me however), I'd have no choice but to blame myself for not cashing out so this is a brutally hard decision one way or the other. I'll keep updating the new cashout amount each day going forward & everybody's feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Ideally, you don't cash anything out and get a loan and hedge some with a live Joker. Joker is known to lose 1st set. Just need the kid come out with confidence which is tough because with no Med or Greek on other side and just Cilic/Ruud the elites are gone and he knows this is the match. Perfect world he does not meet Joker and Rafa passes the clay torch to him. I don't see Rafa beating the kid after a Joker match.

Iga is stud but that 1st set is not something I wanted to see. I haven't looked at that bracket but you need Coco and Daria gone. I would not want to face either.

No way. Not at that price. too many big name out. Have to ride at least into next round. They are paying peanuts on the dollar right now
If Alcaraz gets into the SF, which he’s near -500 to do. I wonder how much the CashOuts rise to Dougy? Any idea? Double? More than double?

I’m like Enikk. I can’t believe with Iga now -300 to win the whole thing, GSW a winner and Alcaraz basically second favorite because Nadal to Novak will lose before he does, the Cash Outs are so low

Thanks Bubbles, actually got a 2nd job in Feb. just to finance this bet each wk. so I can't possibly overstate how much losing it would suck.
That being the case I would probably let Alcaraz win his next match and then cash out. At least enough to get maybe 7 or 8k back? In theory you could cash out 1/3 of the wagers to get 8k and freeroll the rest? Or just cash everything out but maybe one smallish bet and get a nice payday. You’ve done all the heavy lifting. Why risk it all? I’ve done that before and felt horrible after

Really tough to cash out any amount now Bobby cuz if I put that back into the original bet I would only get back a fraction of the original payout. At this point I either CO every bet or just let it ride.
I just saw this. I’d probably let Alcaraz play his next match and win and then cash out if it were me

Honestly if I was working one job I would be a lot more conservative & do as you suggest. These are 2 easy security gigs, (1100 wk/total) with the gameplan from the start being if I win the 120K, putting 100K in the bank & leaving the remaining 20K to bet with & quitting the 2nd job). Still want to be smart & not pass up a solid CO to avoid having nothing to show for it, but it has to be the right amount.

What's the point of cashing out 15K to 20K if you're saying I'm gonna lose 100K anyway if I let it ride & win. If I'm just gonna lose whatever amount, might as well go for the big score, right?

You don't invest 10k to win 120K and not even quadruple your cash when most the threats are gone. Cash out isn't even either. That would be a terrible decision. 40-50K than have to seriously consider. Anything less than no way. To much invested
