Definitely ballsy, but I also think it's stupid to play that much of your remaining bankroll on one game in Week 4. Of course, we won't know until after when the forum can call you out on it.


doesnt matter win or lose
its just dumb and bad money management. which is why i say he'll never make money gambling.

It's definitely foolish but you have to take some chances and this to me (all signs point to it being worth it)

Hope we all cash

I've had one losing season since I started heavily sports gambling about 12 years ago. One and that was last season and I only lost $150 or $175 don't remember off hand. But I was up about $3,350 prior to the Super Bowl where I bet $3,500 on the 49ers.

Listen to this:
I have a guy who has an 8 team parlay pending to win 23,500. he already has won 7 and has New Orleans -6 as his last leg...I am using 7.5 so you would think the logical move would be to play Miami +7.5 and try and hedge and middle...but NO...he just placed another bet on New Orl -7.5...WTF is he thinking....I need Miami so big tonight its not even funny


Quote
ok so I think he may have bet on the wrong team because he plays tons of parlays and never hits them and the one time he has a shot to hit a huge parlay he does not hedge for as much as his bet limit is at?...he must of messed up...I am going to call him...I cant let him think he has a hedge and then if he loses he will be extremely pissed...no way he meant to do that


Quote
he did make a mistake...I knew it...no way his balls were that big...we switched it around and I upped his limit so he could hedge half



That's a pretty classy move.

Yea, could have left it and cashed both huge bets if Miami covers but he did the right thing.

Assume he makes a killing off this guy regularly anyway so in the long run it benefits him to tell him haha

If you've been betting for this long, I can't believe you are willing to tail someone else and not cap your own plays.

I deposited 200 in 5dimes, and turned it into 3200. Listening to no one but myself.

I don't think I've ever seen you post about a loss.

I nearly made a living going off my own plays but I don't have time to do that anymore nor do I want to it's way too involved. I used to watch game tape of almost every game every week on top of reading TONS and TONS of numbers, trends, info, inside reports. Too exhausting to do it anymore.

There's plenty of people capable that have proven track records.
