The worst bad beats happen when the announcers don't even react to the play that just crushed you. It's like they don't feel your pain at all.
Late-night bettors who were on the Los Angeles Clippers felt some pain at the end of Thursday night's game. The Clippers played the Jimmy Butler-less Miami Heat and the line kept moving in their favor. It started with Clippers -2.5 at BetMGM, but by early Thursday morning it was 3.5. It closed at 5. So most Clippers bettors had tickets between -3.5 and -5.
The Clippers and Heat played a tight game down the stretch, and then at the end there was a chance for the cover, or at least a push.
