Mostly Selfindulgent Sports Gambling Thread

[ru93 0]

I'm taking an extended break. I've been grinding on a daily basis in multiple sports since April, been posting in these threads since August, and would like to bail out with a positive yet dwindling margin, especially with the extended slump I'm currently in. I finished up in some sports, down in other sports, and mostly had fun while riding the roller coaster. I'm really tired from the daily research.

 

Good luck to all who continue on. I thank everybody who provided information or feedback. I'll be back a couple of weeks into baseball season.

 

Hate to hear that philly, hope you still stay around the forum to give some opinions.

Heat over 102 points Loser

Thunder -1 Winner

Re-edit: Warriors still win by 12

Thanks for the support.

I didn't post that till after the "Unless Mello goes off for 30+" thing until the game was over, should have put a Edit: there, my bad. I didn't notice until last night though, there guard production is terrible.

 

Last nights game the Knicks guards stats.

 

Toney Douglas: 5pnts 5 ast 3reb 33mins

Landry Fields: 5pnts 3 ast 2reb 24mins

Mike Bibby: 2pnts 0 ast 1reb 21mins

Bill Walker: 1pnt 1 ast 0reb 17mins

NBA (6-9)

Cavs/Pacers under 193 Winner

Grizzles -6 Winner

Clippers +2 Loser

 

NCAA Football

Oklahoma -13 1/2 Winner

 

 

Edit: Been watching some of this Bulls/Clippers game....Rose and Griffin both look amazing. More than likely going to lose the bet though because of foul shots. As of now the Bulls are 27/32, Clippers are 10/16.

[phillybear 365]

Quit already.

 

Ah, let the guy do what he is doing. Once he gets hot, you may be following him.

Perhaps, but I don't follow the NBA and usually don't bet the sport either.

[ru93 0]

Decent day (3/5), having a slow start to the NBA though. I guess on the bright side I am 4-0 in bowl games so far.

 

Post my picks for NBA and NFL tomorrow morning.

[ru93 0]

NFL

4 team ML parlay: Patriots, Steelers, 49ers, Falcons all winning. Winner

Jets scoring over 17 1/2 Loser

Bengals scoring over 18 Loser

 

NBA (9-12)

Lakers +5 1/2 Loser

Timberwolves +3 Winner

Clippers -3 1/2 Winner

 

Edit: Kinda of gay, Jets score 17 and I need 18...not looking good for the Bengals to score over 18 either. At least if the Steelers can beat the Browns I will win my parlay.

 

Re-edit: the Clippers/Blazers game going into the 4th quarter was 69-52 Clippers...now its 90-86 Clippers with 1 45 left

[ru93 0]

Clippers barely hang on, so I break even on the day.

 

10 NBA game tomorrow and 7 bowl games so we will see.

[ru93 0]

Bowl Games (4-0)

Houston -6.5 Winner

Kirk Cousins over 2 1/2 TD's+INT's Winner

Darron Thomas under 226 1/2 passing yard Loser

Warriors +3 1/2 Loser

Magic -4 1/2 Loser

Pacers -6 Winner

[ru93 0]

Another break even day,

 

Only 6 NBA games and 1 bowl game tomorrow so I doubt a lot of action.

[JTB 52]

Another break even day,

 

 

Who do you bet with? I'd love to go 3 & 3 and break even. Don't you pay the VIG?

I do all my action through Betonline, and yes I pay the VIG so when you count that in I do finish a little behind when I go 500. for the day. I don't have that high of a "roll" so my bets are small which makes the VIG less noticeable.

Edit: The first play I see in the Va Tech/Michigan game is Wilson trying to make something out of nothing and he ended up losing 20 yards on the play. Also the Bulls have 26 points at halftime...not shaping up to be a good night.

[ru93 0]

I am really starting to lose my patients with the NBA...don't know how much longer I will give till I just decide to bag it.

I really need to focus on poker and stay away from sports gambling, at least basketball it seems. Going to keep on though until the bowl games and the playoffs are over at least...if my basketball gambling stats are still below average then I will probably bag it till baseball season and focus on poker for a month or two.

Although I went 2-3-1 tonight I finished just a little ahead because of the odds I got on that Parlay.

 

Big day tomorrow: NFL Playoffs, 10 NBA games, all kinds of college basketball, and a bowl game.

[BunnysBastatrds 1,963]

Take LSU and the points spread and tease the over. I'd go with the over. The Dome is going to be 70/30 LSU. It's a home game for them. Just saying! And when LSU wins, they will be the best ever to win the National Championship. No other team has been number one after beating the top two and top three.................EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Bengals was a homer pick because I am a fan, that was stupid.

 

The Spurs played a bad enough 4th quarter to where they couldn't cover the spread...they win by 4, I need 5.

 

The Warriors are not as good as I thought they were, I was thinking they are a average team but there not.

 

 

 

 

I suck.

[ru93 0]

College Basketball (5-5)

Giants/Falcons over 47.5 Loser

Eli over 22.5 completions Winner

Cruz over 87.5 reeving yds Loser

Steelers -7 Loser

Redman over .5 TD Loser

 

 

 

Edit: Some tough breaks today, Redman has a 30 yards run for a TD, which gets reviewed...they reverse it and say he was down at the 1. Next play they give it too Wallace on a reverse for the TD.

 

VCU lost by 5, they went 9 for 19 on FT's.

[listen2me 23 1,592]

Seems like a pretty public thought. But bank Steelers -8.

 

Tebow isn't scoring over 10 pts. Just hope Ben can put up 17-20 pts. Pitts D can score or set up scores in this game though.

 

Pitt 24

Denver 8

[ru93 0]

Time to bag it.

 

Going turn my whole focus to poker when it comes to Betonline for the next month or two at least...poker is the only reason I have somewhat of a roll left on there.

 

I will be back probably around March.
