I don't disagree. I don't know that I would've bet them today but I would've thought about it. And I definitely thought they would win the division. And I'm a Jet fan. Oh well. Maybe they have quit on Coughlin.

I look at betting football like trying to show a profit betting odds on favorites at the track. A very difficult task indeed. Maybe you will come to that conclusion before you dig yourself too deep a hole.

Yesterday was rough. Stayed away from the late games because I was so disgusted with Packer and Charger meltdowns.

Raiders plus 16.5.......$330/300

Chargers didn't meltdown. If Tenn had a semi-competent coach they would have lost by 14

if your bankroll is $2000, why are you regularly risking 25% and more in a single day?

even if there was some basis for your confidence that you can bet profitably, the % of bankroll risked is essentially leaving everything to chance.

I don't know what kind of edge you imagine you have but even if it's as high as being able to win 60% (which would be laughable) you risk going broke before that edge could be asserted over the long run.

you've got more than 15% of your bankroll in a single game tonight. and then more than 10% in a second game. who in their right mind bets like that?

I have literally waited 2 years for Logan Thomas to start a game like this. I just hope he keeps it up.

I do. Its my style. Fast and out of control. Ill show a profit. I am confident in my system. I use donbest.com to track line movement, I stay against the public 75% of the time, at least. Im staying away from totals. I have a trend of losing totals and now Im finished with them. Ill be fine, Ill profit.

Let me get this straight. You ACTUALLY think RHT can influence the outcome of games with his picks??????????????

Yeah, me too.

Love Miami tomorrow night. They are really improved and Saints are way over hyped. They are not even a top 3 NFC team.
Not saying Miami wins, but they will cover 7.

randallscott35 09-29-2013 08:03 PM

trying to get it all back in one fell swoop?

Tilt it is.

The kid does not tilt. Atlanta line moved hard toward Atlanta. Atlanta is a fraud. They are the NFC's version of Houston. Matt Ryan and Matt Schaub will never play for a championship in this league. Some guys just dont have it.

Trying to get it all back with one swing of the bat is a strategy that has worked for many a gambler.:rolleyes:
