You have a bet on a game, you're buddy walks in & does this - how do you react?

Let's say Colts -3 over Patriots

you have the Colts and they up 21-17 3rd quarter - Pats driving

your buddy walks in and says Colts won this game, it's over it's a lock

How do you react?

I have a buddy nicknamed "The Cooler". If he does that I get pissed. This guy couldn't pick a winner in a one horse race.

I punched a guy in the face one time for saying "Bledsoe's gonna throw an interception", right before Bledsoe threw an interception. I made him cry. I kinda felt bad.

I tell him if its a lock you don't mind putting a night with your girlfriend on it then. I call it my hedge policy, might lose the "lock" but get a piece of strange in the process. Win win
