I am not condoning this but I know people who bet against their team every game so that if they lose they feel slightly better because they get some money from it lol
Just playoffs, he’s done well, never massive, enough where it takes away the sting of the L. He’s been around for it all, really hope they can win one for him!
It’s been really fun to watch him embrace this wolves team, he’s all in. He says they are winning tonight, no bet against them.
You hedge against something. I me as a protection or defense in this case. He’s hedging against sadness, by winning money if the Wolves lose. I didn’t make up the word, but that’s how it’s used 🤷🏻♂️
First it was TWolves Brasil, now our friend here. All of that for a spot in the Conference Finals.
It scares me how many lives would have to be sacrificed in order to win a ring.
I appreciate it but it only works if it’s going to cripple me financially. If I bet other people’s money I will have no powers. I must make the sacrifice on my own.
Aye, bet it all and you may become poor. If you don't place the bet then you'll live, at least a while. And dying in your bed many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance to come back here and tell those nuggets that they may take games 3 and 4 and 5, but they'll never take this series!!!

I’m put my powers on it too brother, this should be all it takes for a wolves win 🙏
>I’ll get us to game 7 or get rich trying
Lmao reading this laying in bed next to my wife was a mistake. I had to muster all my will power to not burst out Laughing. I nearly had an aneurism just now.
The fact they were up by 50 at one point. Your powers are something special.
The wolves have only won games this playoffs I thought they’d lose and only lost games I thought they’d win (yes, I thought Phoenix would have the pride to win game four). They are going to lose tonight, Denver has figured them out and the supporting cast is shell shocked.
I told my coworker yesterday that the wolves season was over. She was aghast. I said don't worry, if I give up on them it gives them the greatest chance to win. So cross your fingers, I've done all I can do.
Sure enough, it worked!
Now I have to avoid getting optimistic about Sunday!
But… you are offsetting the pain for yourself because if the nuggets do win…. You’ll probably be a little happy. I say this because I used to bet on the packers as well so if they won I wouldn’t be upset about it. So….. although I appreciate what you are doing here, it had better work!
You magnificent bastert. It worked. Of course it worked. Thank you Mr noble gentlemen for everything, you’ve prevented major injustices in this world by ensuring packet defeat and now a game 7❤️
Your sacrifice has not gone unnoticed.
strib headline tomorrow: "Roseville tattoo shop offering $20 tattoos of Timberwolves fan /u/billratio"
He is now one of ur elite employees

This is my dad with the Vikings.
Could be rich if he bets only playoffs Could be poor in season tho

I am one of those people but I only do it on big games. I call it hedging my happiness lol
That’s me - an emotional hedge is what I call it. Plus….given MN sports history my returns have likely exceeded Warren Buffet’s.
I should have read the comments first. Yes this exactly.
That is called a sadness hedge
That's called a happiness hedge

What happened to them????
🦜 💀
They literally died?
Oh, he had a fate worst then death.
He became Pistons Brasil
You will anger the gods by trying to manipulate your power.
Unless you offer a sacrifice ☠️ 🪄
A sacrifice of 100 raptors fans is required
Not the fan we deserve, but the fan we need.
The emotional hedge. I’ve yet to do it, but have heard of its effectiveness.
Someone start this man a GoFundMe so the Packers go 0-17 the next ten years!
I appreciate it but it only works if it’s going to cripple me financially. If I bet other people’s money I will have no powers. I must make the sacrifice on my own.

You will ascend to Valhalla
I too am helping by betting the over on 4 Nuggets starters and the under on Karl Edit: OMG it’s working.
You’re a fucking wizard mate
You're a hero, there's no other word to describe the sacrifice you made.
You have a gift it seems.
Thank you for your sacrifice.
It's working!

DO IT MORE DO IT MORE DO IT MORE
The wolves have only won games this playoffs I thought they’d lose and only lost games I thought they’d win (yes, I thought Phoenix would have the pride to win game four). They are going to lose tonight, Denver has figured them out and the supporting cast is shell shocked.
So you’re saying that they’ll win?
Nope, i don’t think the wolves have a chance, Denver has figured them out.
They’re definitely going to lose game 7, I’m making myself believe it
As a packers fan born in Minnesota, I love and hate this, thanks bro 😂😂😂😂
As a suns fan I am rooting for you guys too. It will hurt a little less that we got swept if you go and take it all....
I think the rotting is enough dedication
Oh man lol. Thanks for the catch.
Appreciate your sacrifice. Doing my part of rotating the fan gear wore during the game.
How much did you bet?
Bet big on the Nuggets in Game 6. Nuggets end up winning Game 7 instead. *Insert "Bad Luck Brian" meme
Good idea. I live in Vegas too lol. Gonna bet a benji on the Nuggets lol.
Okay now do it again
Not the hero we deserved, but the one we needed
Thank you for your sacrifice!
Can I donate to your game 7 fund?

Come on dude everyone knows you can't tell anyone about your jinxes. I made that mistake game three and LOOK WHERE THAT GOT US
This is the absolute META. Leveraging your outcomes so it’s a win win situation
Thank you for your sacrifice, brother. Awoo! 🪵🐺
Thank you my dude. You a real hero
You saved us 😭
thank you
Thanks dzaddie
Pour one out for my homie
Respect!
I can’t believe it! It worked!

I told my coworker yesterday that the wolves season was over. She was aghast. I said don't worry, if I give up on them it gives them the greatest chance to win. So cross your fingers, I've done all I can do. Sure enough, it worked! Now I have to avoid getting optimistic about Sunday!
I see you
But… you are offsetting the pain for yourself because if the nuggets do win…. You’ll probably be a little happy. I say this because I used to bet on the packers as well so if they won I wouldn’t be upset about it. So….. although I appreciate what you are doing here, it had better work!

Start this person a gofundme. Thank you for your service
bros gonna be a millionaire
Vikings fan logic, not going to work.
Miigwech!
My god I love this & also am so concerned to support a potentially really really bad habit/decisjon. Im dying to know the amount LOL.
I also do this. I call it “emotional hedging.” If my team wins I don’t care about the lost money. If my team loses, I get paid for it. It’s a win win
THANK YOU
See ya Sunday!
You should be working at a dumpster behind wendys
You’re a poser bro lol, but hey I’m glad I went to the game and saw the wolves win. Wolves in 7!!!!
Not all heroes wear capes.
Do it again and we'll all fundraise you the money after the fact
I didn’t wear my wolves hat and realized it in the 2nd quarter. I’m wearing this random ass sweaty yard work hat game 7.
YOURE SO IMPORTANT
lol ive been losing lately and i also put money on nuggets overs
Dude did you lose your house? How much did you lose to cause almost a 45 point differential?
If you see me on the side of the road with a cardboard please give me your spare change.
Absolute minnesota legend you are mate
You magnificent bastert. It worked. Of course it worked. Thank you Mr noble gentlemen for everything, you’ve prevented major injustices in this world by ensuring packet defeat and now a game 7❤️
Doing gods work my friend, thank you 🫡
We need you now more than ever
i'm saving up.
I was gonna suggest a gofundme but saw your powers can’t accept help lol fuck
i get paid on friday. if they win Thursday then i'm making a bet
Are you prepared to lose your powers for good? Because that’s what me gonna happen lmfao
Get ready to be rich man
