i think it was pretty damn impressive .. he put these 3, and ONLY these 3 prop bets in during the year at different times and really seemed to get MAXIMUM value ... especially butler at 50 to 1

holy SMOKES, really? there were 40 to 1 on our site ... again, we use a local, so those types of odds are always lower than other places
