Hawkeye21 1,848 Posted September 12, 2019 I don't really trust the Bucs all that much but I think they are the pick tonight. I see them currently at +7.5 after opening at 7. Over 80% of the public is on the Panthers which makes me think the Bucs are the pick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pittsburgh getting points against NE, The Lions and the Cardinals being a pick 'em, and Denver vs. Raiders are the 3 I'm watching. I never place a bet until right before kickoff though. You can sometimes tell who the large money is wagering on if the line changes within a couple hours of kickoff. If too much of the public is on a particular game, I will avoid it, even if I like it. I place my bets with mybookie.ag and I've learned a few things from wagering over the years. When the public is all over a specific game, don't jump on board. lol The public is typically wrong. I don't know the exact stat, but it's something absolutely astronomical, like when 90% of the public is betting on a certain team, the underdog covers the spread the vast majority of the time. As of today, I love that Pitt game. Them getting +4 right now sort of blows me away. Man, my wagering was WAY off last week. Pitt was blown out. The Lions couldn't stop Murray and Denver looked like a joke. The only games I won on were Baltimore on the moneyline and MN on the moneyline. I put too much on Pittsburgh, which was just dumb on my part. I expected them to win that game outright. I had a 4 team parlay that would have covered had they won. Grrr…. I have not seen anything I truly like yet this week. I'll keep looking though. Does anyone ever play the Teasers? The odds are pure crap when you buy 7 points and only do a 3-teamer. It's sort of easy money, but you just don't win much. I noticed mybookie.ag doesn't allow you to put $10 on all the teams in a parlay anymore. I would do that now and then just for fun. It was always throwing away $10, but it was still fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just for fun I like to pick every game and tease it 6 to 7 points. I put very little money on it because I just like to see if I can pick them all. It's amazing how hard it is even when getting a TD.

I've done the same thing, sometimes buying as many as 10 points. I'm not sure why, but not all the games are always available to buy the 10 points on mybookie.ag. Even when you buy 7, picking them all is next to impossible. There is always at least one game that just ruins everything. I may try this weekend though. Nothing big, maybe $10. I looked over the lines last night and the only one I like a lot so far is the KC vs. Oak - Over. So..... If you want to make some money, pick against me. I doubt I even put anything on the game though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

See, the idea of gambling is to do it BEFORE the games are played, so that you can axually get money when you are right. Gotta give Les Miles credit, though; KU must be improving by leaps and bounds. They went from barely edging out Indiana State 24-17 in Week 1 and then losing to Coastal Carolina 7-12 in Week 2 to beating a Boston College team that downed Virginia freaking Tech 35-28 in their first game--and not just beating them, but doubling them up 48-24. I guess the days of Kansas never covering a spread are over; they looked like a top 25 team tonight. Oh well; I head into Saturday with a 5-2 record so far...

Didn't see anything I liked last week, so still holding at 7-4 on the year... The 20 points that Air Force is giving to San Jose State tonight seems like a pretty big number for a team coming off an 11 point loss to Boise State, against a team coming off a 7 point win against Arkansas. I wouldn't bet the farm on this one, but San Jose State +20 seems like a pretty good chance to get another win. For Saturday, this is another tentative one, but Coastal Carolina has been rolling lesser opponents, and Appalachian State is giving them 16, so I'm taking the Chanticleers +16 on a whim. And finally, other than the no-defense shootout last week with Washington State, UCLA has looked pretty putrid under Chip Kelly, so I'm giving them the points and taking Arizona -6.5 at home.

As I suspected, the teams seemed pretty evenly matched, but then San Jose State kept getting stupid in the red zone and came away with 0 pts on 2 possessions inside the 10 yard line in the 3rd quarter and the game got away from them. Fortunately they scored one last TD during the final minute to get inside the 20 point spread, losing 24-41, but it sure could have been closer. 8-4 and counting...

sderk 1,040 Posted September 28, 2019 My book offered up a bet at +1200 odds, for or against. You have to pick all win or all lose for the 3 following games. Philly, KC, CLE. I said what the hell and threw 50 bucks on those 3 teams winning this week since I felt good about Philly and KC. The payout is about 600 bucks. Come on KC and Cleveland. You can do it.

Well crap, I guess UCLA is getting better. I had two chances to win this even so, with an Arizona TD called back with 3 minutes and change to go because the receiver's knee just grazed the top of the grass as he caught the ball, and a UCLA FG that probably would have sent the game into OT (where Arizona would have a decent chance of winning by 7) went wide right in the waning seconds, giving Arizona a 3 point win. So 1-2 this weekend, ugh. 8-6 overall and on to next week... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
