So I like to over analyze everything (don't tell my wife I said this), and thought it would be fun to break down my progress in sports betting, specifically to football (I plan on sticking strictly to football if you haven't noticed).
Here's the money break down that I've encountered with the entirety of this thread to date:
OVERALL WINNINGS as of 9/10/13: $111.60
OVERALL FOOTBALL Winnings: $103.24
Record of NFL Bets: 8 wins, 5 losses
My losses were to include many $1 parlays with big payouts, just for giggles. Overall, I'd say I'm pretty happy about these numbers.

If you're referring to the 2 for 1 Tuesday promotion, I'm not exactly certain yet, and here's why.
I was bummed when I logged in and didn't have a free bet. I read the fine print, and it stated that if there were a push, then there would still need to be 3 other legs in the bet. That was not the case for me, I had a push.
I don't know if it needs to be straight up or not, but I'm going to give it a go again this week as a teaser. Looks like all lines just came out, reviewing them all now. There wasn't any statement in their fine print about it being straight up or teaser.

yeah looking them over too. i had 2 big teasers hit and i dont have any free bets. one was $10 and one was $20. i reread it and i just feel like it needs to be a 3 team "parlay" because the word teaser isnt mentioned and they are different bets. i was thinking they want you to do a $20 3 team parlay cause that's high risk and better for them.
hey I dont understand
TheKid84
I dont understand about the stats
because
Tampa Bay Rays -158 vs San Fran Giants
Detroit Tigers -250 vs Chicago White Sox
Baltimore Orioles -190 vs Seattle Mariners
Pittsburgh Pirates -172 vs Colorado Rockies
Atlanta Braves -173 at Philadelphia Phillies
what is that mean?
thanks!
I know about this like Kansas City Royals 2+ vs Chicago White Sox 2-
[q😕uote=TheKid84;2148555]Aug. 2nd
Not a lot of action going on that's appealing to the sports I follow. I thought I would try something new to kick things off with a 5 team parlay, but with the teams that are favored to win relatively nice. We'll see how this goes 🙂
The teams listed first is who I've picked straight up to win. Most are home games, which is always better in baseball, and I believe the only concerned one was the Tampa vs San Fran game. I figured a west coast team headed east would play in.
Tampa Bay Rays -158 vs San Fran Giants
Detroit Tigers -250 vs Chicago White Sox
Baltimore Orioles -190 vs Seattle Mariners
Pittsburgh Pirates -172 vs Colorado Rockies
Atlanta Braves -173 at Philadelphia Phillies
Risk $3.00 to win $23.12
Wish me luck tonight 🙂[/quote]

I like the saints against the spread, as well as Oakland. I think it's going to be a coming out party and victory for Mr Pryer in Oakland... I do like the Cincy spread, but not as much. If last week is any indication on how Pit will play, and I really wish we could see the future 🙂, then yea that bet looks solid
I like to do teaser bets for my larger wagers. If I don't get the bonus after this weeks bet, then oh well, no biggie. I don't think my bankroll is at the level I want it to be to risk $20 on a pure 3 leg parlay yet... hopefully in time.
i'm still ~$300. it's fluid with poker. i'm going to do a 3 team parlay for the bonus. it's like getting a 50% discount. i'm also going to throw down on a teaser with some of these huge spreads. then probably going to wait and throw down a pretty good sized bet and chill. i want to bet the bengals soooo bad but they are my team so i may just leave them out until i see how the week goes.
edit: give me an OU that you're feeling good about and i'll replace that for the bengals. can you see an easy lock?
edit2: maybe cowboys/chiefs under? the cowboys O is anemic and KC wont put up 28 vs Big D im thinkin.....

Unfortunately I don't like any of them as a lock... I was posting a bit about this late last week, foreseeing the odd match ups that occur this week. A lot of higher offenses against poor offenses and a lot of 'anemic teams against each other that could go either way... I actually think the Bengals option is best for ya...
One thing I am noticing is there are a lot of lower 40's Over/Unders out there... I plan on doing a massive sweetheart bet (massive in my terms) teasing 13 points and betting the over. That'd be like 3 games over 30 points total... I think that'll be my money maker this week.
EDIT: Example
TEN vs HOU OVER 30
MIA vs IND OVER 29.5
MIN vs CHI OVER 29
JAX vs OAK OVER 26
RISK $50
WIN $41.67
I mean I'm eying something like this. How do those over NOT happen?? Tempted to throw down 100 on it...

that does look pretty tempting. i get your point, it's just SO low. most of those teams scored that many by themselves last week.
also i was thinking of doing that with all the highest spreads too. maybe one of all the lowest OUs and one of all the highest spreads for $50 each.

The Jax game does worry me a bit. They were pretty putrid last week, and the OAK def is worse than the KC unit. I do like Pryer as well, I think he could put up 14-21 on his own vs the Jags... I will be pondering this one for a bit, may sub this game out for another...
But yes, drooling a bit over this bet 🙂
lets each wager $100, $50 on each bet. if you like something better or want to wait cause u think a spread could change in our favor say so.
i'm gonna take like $20 more and make a couple miracle bets then chill this week. dont like the matchups. wanna go big on broncos vs raiders next week.
actually, maybe just wait until game day and do a 4 team parlay with some money line bets. went 10-6 in pick em last week. i can pick 4 SU.

I like where your headed. Here's another 13 point teaser to consider, I think it's easy money.
Minnesota Vikings vs. Chicago Bears Over 29(Teased 13 points)
Denver Broncos +8½(Teased 13 points)
Minnesota Vikings +19
(Teased 13 points)
New York Jets +26(Teased 13 points)
Risk
US$ 50.00
To Win
US$ 41.67
Im going to sleep on it a bit. Will check in tomorrow or the next day to let some of these settle in, see if they're still looking good tomorrow 🙂

i get a little worried going big with 2 parts of the same big in there. you're basically trying to predict that game perfectly. if we're just looking for the perfect single sweetheart this week to go big on (which is smarter than spreading myself so thin again) then lets put something together.
i def like viks +19. thats a lock. division game.
titans +23. they looks OK last week and houston only looks OK too. that game is going to be semi-close. lock
i like raiders over 26 pretty well and indy over 29.5 looks pretty lockish too.
jets +26 seems like the sucker bet of the week. it's the jets we're talking about here. hard to bet them getting 42 pts i feel.

Denver Broncos +8.5 @ 4:25 PM
Minnesota Vikings +19 @ 1:00 PM
Minnesota Vikings vs Chicago Bears OVER 29 @ 1:00 PM
RISK $20.00

Bet #3 of the week is my $1 spread parlay of the week. I actually think this might win lol...
NYJ vs NE Pats OVER 43.5 Thursday game
Baltimore Ravens -7 vs Cleveland Browns @ 1:00 PM
Indianapolis -3 vs Miami Dolphins @ 1:00 PM
New Orleans Saints -3.5 vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers @4:05 PM

Looks pretty good - Don't know about the Oklahoma game though, I don't follow college pretty closely other than Michigan (GO BLUE!!)

These look good. The Under SD/PHI game has me a bit worrisome. I'm just huge on the Eagles this year. I love what Chip has done, and they're going to have a lot of overs in the future. 67 is a lot of points to go over, but I could see SD put some points on the board. Should be interesting for sure!
What do you think about betting the spread (-13) on the Patriots and the under bet on the Jets/Patriots game tonight?
I need to get most of my bets for this week done today since I will be gone for the weekend and from what I can tell this seems ok.
Any opinions?

Saints over Bucs
Falcons over Rams
Raiders over Jags
Ravens over Browns
Bet 2: Risk $10 to win $22
Broncos over Giants
