well what a crappy day. man.

 

[TheKid84]

Aaaaand I'm busto. Thanks bengals! Can't even score one touchdown. unbelievable. Looks like I'll be starting back @ $20 next week. Awesome

I'm as mind blown as you are about the outcome at that game. The fact Dalton/Green couldn't hook up at least once in that game is a total joke. Those browns have something up their sleeves, I'm not liking it. Really sorry bro...

This is what I'm thinking for Week 4, comments and suggestions?

San Fran win (@ $1.65)
KC win (@ $1.48)
Cincinatti -4.5 (@ $1.91)
Indianapolis win (@ $1.28)
Seattle win (@ $1.77)
New Orleans win (@ $1.38)

Also looking to pick Denver but odds and lines aren't out here for that game yet.

Ended up picking Denver -9.5 @ $1.71. 5/6 so far with New Orleans still to play (obviously I'm not the only one that got tripped up by Cinci...). Betting would've shown a profit just under 1 unit if New Orleans lose, about 2.3 units if they get up.

Time to jinx myself and start thinking about putting real money on this?

Sorry to hear it. I also got burned by the bengals and I only needed them to make +9

i had a good run. my last deposit was around the 1st of june and got going betting rockies and the over on a $20 parlay. ran up to $750 and hovered around the $500 mark for the most of time.

just annoyed about NFL so far this year. i could have done great the last couple thursdays but cant pull the trigger. i could have just been betting broncos/over parlays and making bank. not sure what my play is going to be next week. i may just do $20 broncos/over vs cowboys. they are BY FAR the best team in the league. EVERYONE else is simply mediocre.

any team can win or lose any week and those past results are not a measure of future success. luckily we are still early in the season so i could still run it up again......

Want action tonight.

Anybody?

What site you guys use for lines?

The only poker site I have money on is Bovada and they don't allow P2P transfers so I'm going to have to pass.

Pretty much the same way I feel.

We aren't betting against each other, sites like Bovada, have an online betting option on their websites where you can use your funds, and the site is the house. It's like your own personal bookie.

^ this.

I use Australian online bookmaker sites (mostly Centrebet) for lines / pricing because online sports betting is 100% legal and encouraged here

Looking good for you so far.

6/7 from the week, with a theoretical betting profit of 2.3 units. Seriously thinking about pulling the trigger on real money for next week...

 

[bernotas22]

I don't know about you guys but my $350 bet on the lions to win paid off big go lions! best team in NFL

 

[TrueOC]

Looking good for you so far.

Yea wish I would of bet more since it was a stone cold lock Saints @ home to win over the Dolphins.

I used to bet big on NFL, took a break for a while and so far this year im up around 2k.

I drasticaly cut down the amount of games I bet and amount of $$ I bet. It was becoming ehhh a problem? I mean saying it was a problem might be a bit drastic so lets just say I decided to change the way I earn a secondary income without the use of sportsbetting. I did consider myself about a 80% winner. I was always good at picking winners.

I used to advise my partners in picking and would get a % but I put an end to that.

Now betting on football is just a means for fun, not anything more than that. Petty cash I use now and if I lose that roll. My season is over, simple as that. (Maybe one rebuy of a c-note LMAO) But lets hope it doesn't get to that point.

Recapping the week.

A) your team is losing this week

B) what are you smoking to think they are the best team in the NFL...

 

[TrueOC]

LOL Im a Jets homerbut I aint sayin they the best...

As youre clearly Lions homer, there good butnoway the best.

Denver would SMOKE Lions.

 

[OzExorcist]

OK, gonna pull the trigger and put real money on this week - starting smallish, naturally

Would appreciate people's thoughts on the following picks:

New England win (@ $2.00)
St Louis win (@ $1.19)
Green Bay / Detroit OVER 53 (@ $1.91)
Kansas City win (@ $1.77)
Carolina win (@ $1.77)
San Diego -4 (@ $1.87)
San Fran win (@ $1.37)
Atlanta win (@ $1.23)

Also picking a Denver win, but waiting for pick-your-own-line prices to get released. They're paying $1.33 straight for the win or $2.00 @ -7.5, thinking of going somewhere between those two (unless everyone thinks they'll crush -7.5?)

I'm just beginning to bet on football,, think I'm 9-5 ,,mostly 1 and 2 dollar bets,,just having fun with it. Makes the games mean something to me. lol

This will certainly be the biggest challenge yet for the Lions, we need to step up in a lot of ways now but so does Green Bay this is a must win for them, Gonna be a interesting to see, hopefully Calvin goes for 217 yards 14 receptions and 3 touchdowns

 

[A9ofHearts]

Any of you see the new promotion they have going on? 4 weeks of NFL betting promotions. This week it's a 10% cash back on all 5+ leg parlays.

New England win (@ $2.00)NICE
St Louis win (@ $1.19)HARD TO BE ON STL, BUT THEY PLAY JAX
Green Bay / Detroit OVER 53 (@ $1.91)IT'S GOT AN OK CHANCE
Kansas City win (@ $1.77)NICE
Carolina win (@ $1.77)A BIT IFFY...
San Diego -4 (@ $1.87)NICE
San Fran win (@ $1.37)NICE

Welcome to the club man. Don't hesitate to post any thoughts/questions in the thread. We can obviously help with our thoughts, but as you can see, they're not always right GL

This will certainly be the biggest challenge yet for the Lions, we need to step up in a lot of ways now but so does Green Bay this is a must win for them, Gonna be a interesting to see, hopefully Calvin goes for 217 yards 14 receptions and 3 touchdowns

They're going to need AT LEAST that to stop Rodgers and company IN GB AFTER their bye week. There's no hope.

Good lookin out. I didn't see this go out. I sometimes feel as if they try to hide these promotions from us for some reason... Just entered... Might give it a go on a money line parlay or something.

I got an email about it so you might just need to be subscribed to their mailing list. After doing some math I determined that it is hardly worth it though because the house edge on a 5 team parlay should be somewhere around 21%
So with the cash back it is a good enough deal, but it's making me think twice about doing the 2-1 Tuesdays bet.
