Sports Betting Challenge: DimersBOT JACKPOT - Best Picks and Odds for Thursday April 29, 2021
Updated: | First published:
Written by Dimers Staff
It's a new week and our Man vs. Machine DimersBOT JACKPOT gambling challenge is back, this week with $100 on the line for our human challenger if they can beat our sports prediction robot!
In case you missed it, last week our DimersBOT annihilated Dimers community member, Ben, by more than four units in a comprehensive victory over the three days of competition. That means the $50 prize goes begging and doubles to $100 this week for the challenger.
Welcome to the DimersBOT JACKPOT!

❓How does the DimersBOT JACKPOT work?
Each week a loyal Dimers Community member will take on our DImersBOT over three days. Both the Challenger and DimersBOT will make three picks per day across any pro league (NBA, MLB or NHL). DimersBOT will of course be making the picks from its own data projections, based upon 10,000 simulations of every game in the United States.
The bets can be the traditional moneyline, spread, total or prop play, or they can elect to put together a parlay to really maximize their advantage, or chase losses.
Each pick will have one unit assigned to the bet. Whoever has the most units at the end of the three days is declared the winner.
If the Challenger proves that humans are still better than robots, they win cash. However, if DimersBOT wins, that money rolls over to the following week where the new Challenger will compete for even more money. If DimersBOT keeps winning, that Jackpot keeps getting bigger!
It's not all bad for the losers, though. We'll still give anyone that competes a free Dimers t-shirt.
👨🦱 This Week's Challenger
This week's challenger is Eric who goes by @frostyxspoon on Instagram. Eric is from San Francisco and is a huge sports fan but can't yet gamble in the state of California - however, he can take on the DimersBOT!
💪 Day 1 Picks - The Challenger
BET 1: 🔥 Timberwolves at the moneyline vs. Warriors (+180)
Challenger: The Wolves just came off a week where they beat the Utah Jazz twice. They can match it with the best and they can definitely beat Golden State. I found these oddds with William Hill Sportsbook.

BET 2: 🔥 PARLAY: Bucks ML vs. Rockets + Pelicans ML vs. Thunder (-264)
Challenger: This parlay doesn't have the best odds but this is a pure strategic play to keep my bankroll in-tact. The Rockets and Thunder are tanking so I'll take the easy money. Parlay these two teams with William Hill Sportsbook.

BET 3: 🔥 New York Yankees at the run line vs. Orioles (-111)
Challenger: The Yankees are getting better and Baltimore really aren't a great team, they've just been lucky so far.

Day 1 Picks - DimersBOT
BET 1: 🔥 Yankees @ Orioles total runs OVER 9 (-118)
DB: OK Eric, I see what you're doing there and I'm going to make a strategic move myself. You've got the Yankees to destroy the Orioles so I'll take the total runs going over. I've got a 55.5% chance of it happening. Odds provided by PointsBet.

BET 2: 🔥 Penguins @ Capitals total goals OVER 5.5 (-112)
DB: Another PointsBet play, and my system is running hot on this one! I've got Pittsburgh and Washington scoring at will tonight, going over the 5.5 total set by the sportsbooks. My probability rating is 56%.

BET 3: 🔥 Sabres at the moneyline vs. Bruins (+320)
DB: The Sabres are an enigma, but when they play well, they pay big! I'm detecting a 5.7% edge on the sportsbook's odds here for an upset.
