my bet on betscorum

Last week I just happened to find a tag on the Scorum discord with a post that offered a free 10 SCR bet to the first 5 people who voted on the post. I was one of the first 5 to vote so I won a free 10 SCR bet. The stipulation is that I make a post about the bet, why I made the bet, and post a screen shot of my bet.

One caveat to betscorum is that you must make a bet that someone is willing to "match" and take the other side of. So for my bet I decided to find a game that already has a bet placed that I can go directly against. I went to a bookie website to look up some odds on soccer because currently that is the only sport offered on betscorum. I found a game with some odds I liked and I decided to just bet on the favorite in the match. The game I happened upon is in the Italy Serie A, match: Sassuolo Vs Cagliari.

As you can see above Sassuolo is the odds on favorite paying a little better than 1:1 odds. On betscorum the payout will be 11.11 SCR if I win the bet which translates to about +110 odds on my 10 SCR wager, which is a little better payout than if I had made the bet on bookmaker.eu. This game takes place 1/26 at 9AM est which is Saturday morning on the East Coast of the US where I live. I will likely have to find the game online somewhere to follow along to see if my bet ultimately pays out. Even if I happen to lose I will get my 10 SCR back so no need to worry. If I do win I may decide to roll over my winnings and find another bet to make and see if I can compound it up into a bigger amount. Wish me luck and thanks for reading!
