    I’d cash out now. Sure, if it were the spread I could see risking it, but not the money line. Maybe I just cursed the Pack saying that lol.

    I remember one of my buddies getting a $500 winner riding on Monday night and he just put half of it on the Monday night game the other way to guarantee the 50% win. I guess you would need $365k to do that though...

    It says on their site that you cannot cash out on free bet and this might have been a freebie.

    Who in their right mind would bet the Lions straight up over the Pack at Lambeau?

    If he would have bet $365k on the Packers, he would have been a cash winner. Not sure what would happen if Lions won other than he is out a LOT of cash, and has a huge house credit at MGM.

    Smart man (or woman) - took the cash. It sounds like MGM made him a cash offer even if they didn't have to. Not a bad haul, $80k after taxes? For MGM, it was probably worth all the free publicity.

    Yeah, the story I heard was he tried to cash out and there was no option... so he called them and was told that they do not offer cash outs for promo/free money. However, the reached out to him afterwards and said it was worth all of the attention the story got and they "wanted to make it right".

    Feel good story on all ends. Well, except, you know, they Lions
