Wbh are you watching the all star game - if so, how is it?

It's pretty terrible to be honest. I usually like it. They are playing a little bit of defense which makes it actually worse.

That sounds a lot better to me.

Teach me your ways.

I don't make a dime so I don't think my methods are for you.
Problem is I'm playing for fun so waste $$ on bad bets. I have $353 in my account right now after starting a year ago with $300. But it's damned cheap entertainment.

WBH did you come ahead on Steph/LeBron?

I think that O\U bets on hockey are a weak spot. Nearly all are 5.5 or 6 - I'll bet a sharp bettor could make bank there with some dedicated study.

Team Lebron -2.5. #cashmoney

And for fun my thinking on that parlay.  It seems to me from the seat of my pants that Friday/Saturday games are lower scoring and Sunday games - especially night games are higher.  Also home teams seem to play better on Sunday night   So thus the home teams M/L and the overs.

Northwestern?
Oklahoma?
Minnesota?

No NBA until Thursday.

Every time I post these I get whomped....but my 2 wagers for the day unless Travis/Matty can get me some soccer inside info.

I did really well on baseball over/unders a couple years ago when I was playing fantasy baseball and paid close attention to pitchers/matchups. I definitely think hockey is exploitable in a similar way. I don’t watch enough nowadays to make anything other than a guess

Hammered duke. Colorado ml late night snack

Please tell me the nba is back tomorrow JESUS

Didn't like any of the NBA or NCAA lines tonight....so went with a crazy arse NHL parlay. Most likely guarantee is that I can go to bed early with no worries of hedging.

Don’t love a lot tonight. Took the 76ers, Cavs, and Thunder.

Was tempted to take Illinois first half

I just started checking them out a couple weeks ago and I've put a little $ on a few and have hit a couple. I think they're
more goofy/emotional bets than true traps. The group them mostly by network and geography. They'll have the 3 ESPN BB games or the FL Hockey teams etc. I'll have to go back and look at my record in them.

Does anyone have the time to look back and see what the overall record is for all these "locks" that you guys throw your money on?  I'd love to add it up.

lol, We're not pros man and like all gamblers you'll hear more about the wins than the loses.   But I put $300 in around a year ago and have been as low as $35 and as high as nearly $700 last fall.   Remember when I won those 2 baseball parlays back to back?   Right now I've got $320 in my account with $30.88 bets out.  For a full year of entertainment that's cheap fun.   When you're betting mostly $5 bets it takes a long time to lose a sum of $$.

BTW came back to answer OTPT's question on the parlay boosters.  I've been doing them for longer than I remember over the last couple months I've wagered them 21 times for $105  - Won 3 times for a total of $74.50 - so a net loss of $30.50.  So once again pretty cheap fun.

Oh, I get that it's a fun thing for you guys to do and thats pretty much it.  Not too many of you guys are the types that think they'll make a mortgage payment off of a game or are dumb enough to try.   I was just wondering about the passionate picks that you all have deemed "locks" from page one.  I won't do it, but it would be a cool project.  Too much work.  Just casually reading, I'm thinking you guys are near the 50% mark.   Maybe higher.

Hold my beer wags because I paid for my rose bowl trip and final four ticket with wagers... but I’ve also lost my shit at times.

Yeah, like goose says, all of us who have gone deep with money that isn't ours have been in that position. We all talk about the victories and not many times when we were hiding out from our bookie.   But we've all done it. We all have those stories, and I have no doubt you did score big sometimes.  I quit when I became a father.  Just didn't feel right.  actually a husband.  I know, I'm a pussy.
