What if you had bet on Vegas at 100-1?

The Stanley Cup Final gets underway on Monday, and it’s safe to say no one expected the Vegas Golden Knights to make it far.

A few people, were willing to bet on a hope and a prayer, though. Ken Boehlke of SinBinVegas talked to Yahoo Canada Sports in Las Vegas about the bet he made on his team at 100-1 and whether hedging against them makes sense.

Boehlke could guarantee a profit with a bet on the Washington Capitals, but finds it hard to imagine betting against the Golden Knights he’s come to love.

Watch him discuss his dilemma above.
