I did this once before in the 2017 playoffs. I knew Calgary would get smoked by Anaheim in the first round, so I bet on the Ducks for the series and put extra money on them for the 2 games in Anaheim, since the Flames had yet to break the Ponda Center curse. Felt dirty to just take the money from the Flames getting their asses kicked, so I bet it forward on the Penguins to win the cup after that. Ended up turning a $100 initial bet into over $1000 winnings, that took the sting off quite a bit
I didn't repeat the bet in 2019 because for once I actually had a lot of confidence in the Flames going into the playoffs. I won't make the same mistake this year
