People seem to be confused on here

I made a bet the other day on the thunder > grizz game
I had the thunder +5 > grizz

The game was tied at the end if the game so it was going to overtime
But since i had the thunder +5. That means i won the bet by 5 points no matter if it went to overtime or not

I also made a bet on the thunder s/u so since it did goto overtime and the grizz won in overtime by 6 points then i lost my s/u bet

Please correct me if im wrong here

Someome said that i loss my thunder +5 bet just because grizz won by 6 in overtime
Which is wrong because since i had thunder +5. It means they won by 5 points in regulation

I mean how does that make any sense If i had the thunder +5 and the grizz won by 3 points. I would still win my bet by 2 points
So y would i loss i they tied and i had them +5

That doesnt make sense though. The final score at regulation would be thunder win by 5 since i had them +5

How does that make any sense.

If the thunder lost by 3 points and i had them +5 i would win
But since they got even closer than 3 points i would lose?
Thats not right
The score was 94 all at regulation. But since i had thunder +5. It was 99 thunder. 94 grizz.

Now i can see since i took the thunder s/u and they lost in ot then i lost that bet

the game was not over at the end of regulation. it doesn't matter unfortunately, sorry bro but you lost.

It's the final score and that's all that matters. Thunder lost the game by 6 points so you lose.

My post did not state thunder +5 > grizz +OT

It was thunder +5

Basically the thunder won 99-94 at regulation

If the thunder would have lost by 5 points it would have been thunder 89 +my 5 = 94
So 94-94 it would have been a push
So y would u be penalized if they came closer than losin by 5 ?
94 + 5 = 99

Thunder 99. Grizz 94 at the end of regulation

All that matters is what the score is when the game is over. They didn't come closer than 5, they lost by 6. You lost bro, sorry.
