Sorry I'm posting late. Picked up NC State first half ML (+230).

 

Not sure what I'm doing in the TCU game yet. Perhaps something in live betting.

 

Hanging on by the skin of my teeth. Nice defensive stop by NC State. I wish the half would just end.

 

Saw Ditka chimed in with his pick tonight. Good thing I have multiple outs because most books moved the Utah-TCU total to 42.5. But Bodog hooked me up:

 

Utah-TCU Over 42

 

Hey, baseball hedge question for my fellow degenerates: I took the Padres-Cardinals and Twins-A's series to go 4 games (about 2:1 odds). Thought those were the two closest matchups with the best chance of a split before it changed locations. Now both are looking at potential sweeps.

 

I'm a big believer in hedging my bets to minimize/eliminate loss. I'm pretty sure the Cardinals have this sewn up so I'm going to have to lay serious lumber on the Cards' ML to hedge. But I'm thinking of letting it ride in the Twins game because of Oakland's inability to close out a playoff series. However, the fact that Radke's arm is ready to fall off has me thinking that I should just pay the -144 and not take any chances.

 

My question is: Is either matchup worth letting the bets ride, or should I hedge both since the sweeps are imminent?

NC St covers my first half bet. Hanging around for the game, just down by 3. :wall:

 

Since I am making small plays tonight, I am waiting for the half time line for any possible play.

Utah up 3-0. :wacko:

 

Adding: Under 2nd H FlorSt/NCSt 20.5 for .5 units

 

Some value on the under, when you consider the O/U for the game. Taking a small play on it. Wheeling and dealing.

 

TCU punting again. :lol:

Actually, I got the total for TCU/Utah at 41.5 on Bodog. The line dropped before kickoff. Scoresandodds had it at 40.5 at kickoff.

 

Low scoring so far, not looking good.

Ok im retarded i know....but.

 

Ok if the Utah / TCu game is Utah -2.5

 

If you pick TCU to win....they have to win by 2.5 points correct? or is that wrong?

It actually means you must win straight up or lose by 2 points or less.

 

If you bet on the team playing against the team with the "minus odds", you're actually getting that number of points in your favor.

TCU is getting +2.5 in that instance. So whatever the final score is, add 2.5 pts to the TCU final score. TCU can lose by 2 pts and still cover. With a line like that, root for TCU to win the game, and erase all doubt.

Pretty much. Just ignore the half. It only means that you will either win or lose (you can't push).

can't place bet keeps taking me to a bue screen

 

can you help iwanted nc st. +3.5

 

Hey, did you sign up? I never heard back from you. Did you give someone else the referral? :P

 

You need to be very quick when trying to place a live bet. You have to constantly click the link for "Football" and then wait for the current day to appear at the top of the list (in this case, "Thursday"). Be careful not to click "refresh". That will only take you to the home page and not where you need to be.

 

You then need to quickly process what you want to take and put it in. It's a lot easier to do during timeouts or in between possessions. You can get in on a line in between downs, but if you don't have a rapid fire trigger finger, you'll likely lose out.

 

If it disappears, it's only temporary. Keep clicking on "Football" and Olympic will eventually put the new lines up.

 

Let me know if this helps.

The second college game tonight will be on the former Outdoor Life Network.

 

TCU vs Utah on channel 608 on Directv.

I never channel surf that high on Directv, so most people probably don't know it's there.

 

I've got:

 

Utah -2

 

6pt teaser

NCST +15.5

Utah +4

Tcu/utah over 35

 

looking good so far.

Utah hits my 1st H bet. :bench:

 

Utah is in complete control of this game. Their offense and defense look sharp. TCU looks bad. The Utah QB Ratliff looks very sharp. Utah should be up more. Whatever. I am taking Utah to continue to blow out this TCU team, like they did to other opponents whenever they smelled an advantage.

 

Adding: Utah 2nd H (Pk)@Even for 3 units.

Why do I got to be names tonight?

 

We are all degenerates.

 

Learn it. Live it. Love it. :huh: :cheers: :cry:

 

Holy Fock. TCU put in the backup QB. I hope that is a positive for my huge Utah 2nd half bet.

 

I hope. :bench:

 

3 and out ain't bad. :banana:

thanks for getting me in on that mid game betting

 

 

i took NCSt. when I thought they where going to score that TD +3.5 for 3 units

 

Then after Florida St. I took them again at +10 for another 4 units trying to recover :dunno:

 

 

 

Looks good so far :banana: :banana:

Luck seems to be reversing. Really needed that half closing FG. Now need 19 points for the cash. Eccchh!!

 

Chasing with live in-game betting:

 

Florida St-NC St Over 51 for the game (-105)

 

I guess I can't see Fl. St. losing to NC St. again straight up. I'm betting there will be at least one TD (which would be a push) and then hopefully another cheap score.

Haven't seen anything yet. You need to remind them about your bonus. As far as mine goes (thank you by the way), I need you to email me your account number and full name (first & last). They reward the bonuses, but they require the referrer to make the effort to ask for it.

 

You can send the info to my email (BTC316@hotmail.com).

 

When I send them the note about my bonus, I'll make sure to remind them to credit you for yours.

Amber's not sweet? :dunno: Or are you referring to the fact that all of your wife's links are staring me in the face?

 

Ah. Found the pics of your wife. You did well for yourself! So long marriage, four daughters, AND a dog?!? When do you find time to sleep?!?

Enough of the small talk. Picks, picks, picks. Winners, winners, winners. When you putting your gold....rrrrrr...picks out for all of us to see Ditka? You know how dependent I feel typing this? You could just pull a fast one on me and post some shitty picks and I'd be broke Saturday night.

I should add my .02 into this thread. Michigan will torch the Spartans Saturday. I don't think the "mainstream"/Vegas realizes that this is a completely different Michigan team. Lloyd finally got some balls and fired his OC and DC (best friends) and got some real coaches in those important spots. Lines haven't caught onto this fact as of yet. Oh...MSU's team has quit on the coach.

That is what I have been doing all along is putting out the bad picks that keep on winning. J/K. I am looking at a few games for Saturday and I will post them tomorrow night.
