So you click on the game, say Packers Titans, and 'Any Time Touchdown Scorer' will be in the popular markets section at the top. You add your specific selection to your betslip, then go to a different game and do the same. They will then be sitting in your bet slip, and you can multi bet them at the bottom of your betslip.

Thanks

I had a multi last week that got all 8 winners at $13

I wish I had put more than $25 on it now although I was extremely nervous when Goff wasn't starting and the Browns looked like missing half their team.

Best 9/10 right for a tens of thousands win.....it was sometime around 2015-7, the cowboys or one of their players let me down

Think it was Henry being 10 yards under his total in week 16 cost me around a grand.

Tyler Johnson over 12.5 yards receiving my main bet @ $1.88

Small stake multi Johnson over 12.5, Miller over 23.5 , Adams over 91.5 @ $8

Missed the boat on Scotty Miller over 1.5 receptions, into $1.60 , seemed a very good bet if you were getting $1.80 +

This form of wagering sounds interesting....

Kalshi is a federally regulated financial exchange where you can trade directly on the outcomes of real-world events. Instead of buying stocks or bonds, you trade "event contracts"—financial derivatives that pay out based on a "Yes" or "No" answer to specific questions.

How It Works​

• Yes/No Contracts: Every market is a simple question (e.g., "Will the Fed raise interest rates?" or "Will the Seahawks win?"). You buy a "Yes" contract if you think it will happen and a "No" contract if you don't.
• Probability Pricing: Contracts trade between $0.01 and $0.99. The price represents the market's perceived probability; a contract at $0.65 means the market sees a 65% chance of that outcome.
• Fixed Payouts: If your prediction is correct, each contract pays out exactly $1.00. If you are wrong, it pays $0.00.
• Peer-to-Peer: You trade against other users on a central order book, not against "the house" like a sportsbook. Kalshi makes money through small transaction fees, not by taking the opposite side of your trade.

What You Can Trade​

• Economics: Fed interest rate decisions, inflation (CPI) data, and GDP growth.
• Politics: U.S. presidential elections, congressional control, and legislative outcomes.
• Sports: Game winners, point totals, and player performances (which accounts for roughly 90% of current activity).
• Culture & Weather: Movie awards (Oscars), Billboard chart positions, and daily temperature records.

Is It Legal?​

• Federal Regulation: Kalshi is regulated by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) as a Designated Contract Market.
• Insider Trading Rules: Because it is a regulated exchange, trading on material non-public information is a federal offense, unlike on many gambling sites.
• Current Controversies: Despite federal status, several states (including Arizona, Nevada, and Washington) have challenged Kalshi's sports and election markets, alleging they constitute illegal gambling under state law.

How ****ed do you have to be to want to bet on a war.

And that's from someone who loves a punt.

Not to mention all the people with inside information profiting off war bets. They can say blah blah about no insider bets, its bet on with crypto so it happens whether they want to admit it or not. Apparently there is an account on PolyMarket based out of Israel that has made a fortune with war bets. Its so ****ing disgusting.

Requested another withdraw at 8pm last night and im struggling to get an answer of when it will be processed by live chat 14 hours later. Very weird.
