The betting thread - who ya got?

  • Iliketurtles
    Made 3 bets for the 2nd halves of games put 10 on Kentucky +320 (kinda hedging on my teaser and MSU spread bets) and then have 20 to win 20 for the TCU/TT to go over 94 points in the game and 24 to win 20 for someone to score in the first 5 minutes of the 2nd half.
  • Iliketurtles
    Put down 50 for another 10 point teaser OSU -5.5, Syracuse +27, Wyoming +29.5
  • TBone14
    If I go on to push Miss St -14...it will be the greatest push in my career. Onside kick returned to the house.

    I had 14.5 but I bought it. Maybe they break one running it out.

    Today has been one of my best betting days in a long time. If I can win this last 10 point teaser on the day I will have made back on the money I've lost so far since the start of football season lol.
  • Iliketurtles
    Well probably going to lose that 10 point teaser. Put 30 on Colorado State -7.5 for the 2nd half to hedge a little bit. Would be awesome if CSU only got 8 more than Wyoming in the 2nd half then I'd win both haha. Also have 30 on UTEP +7.5 in the 2nd half.

    Just put 20 on South Carolina to score more than 13 in the 2nd half and put 10 on them +9 in the 2nd half.
  • Iliketurtles
    I put $25 ASU -3.5 and the over 60 and parlayed them both for $10

    Last bet of the night got $75 on Nevada -3 and $25 parlayed Nevada ML and over 54.5

    Trying to root in your teaser you're still alive...20-14 Bengals game with 11 minutes to play you need a td somewhere there.

    Well you're still alive heading to the late games but I don't understand the Browns laying 6 on a teaser.
  • Footwedge
    Turtles 9 legs in in the early games pretty impressive.

    Browns are -1 don't know why I put -6 in the orginal post haha. Getting a little worried need points to start being scored in Cards/Eagles.

    Well I gave it a good run... doesn't look like the 6 point teaser is going to make it out of the 4pm games with the way the Cards/Eagles and Colts are looking.

    Sorry about that 11-1 equals loser. To make you feel worse had you bet each individual game straight up you would have gone 9-3
  • Laley23
    Ouch. 0-4 today.

    I love how you are trolling me about a $5 dollar 14 team teaser. But yeah that does suck to know I would have gone 9-3 betting those at their normal lines.

    It's ok still been a great weekend. Won a shit ton yesterday and still made money today with the Packers ML bet still left to go.

    I probably should have hedged some money by betting like 50 on the Steelers ML but really didn't think they'd win.
  • SportsAndLady
    4 game evening parlay was

    Browns -6.5
    Arizona ML
    Steelers +4.5
    Packers +2

    Let's go Pack

    Never seen a guy on a message board actually make fun of someone losing bets. You truly are a dumb piece of shit, especially when you just paid me a 100 on a bet you lost LOL.

    This weekend just proved why it is so tough to win long term. You have to be disciplined and manage your money or you will go broke. The goal is 55-58%. Just in the games I posted, look at the randomness at the finishes. You can't predict or handicap some of this stuff.

    USC- Guy steps out of bounds a yard short of a 1st down on a 4th and 2. Should have easily had it and USC kneels on the win. Instead, Utah marches down the field and wins at the gun.
    Syracuse- Covered from start to finish.
    Wyoming- Getting drilled the whole game. Had +18.5 Down 45-17 with 7 minutes left. Wyoming hits a TD to get it to 45-24 and then with 20 seconds left (starters still in), they hit a 32 yarder for a TD to backdoor the cover 45-31. No business covering.
    Tex/Kst Under- 23 points. A rare easy winner.
    GTech- Aided by a lot of Pitt fumbles early but still won by 28.
    Miss St- Takes an onside kick to the house to get it to 14 and a push for me.
    Nevada- Dominate 2nd half. Good winner.
    Washington St. Team total Over 35.5- 16 points through 3 quarters. They score 21 points in the 4th...including a TD with 16 seconds left to put it over. Would have been impossible without Arizona taking an onside kick to the house to give Wash. St another possession instead of Zona running clock.
    Ohio State- Up 17-0. Looking like a laugher. Pick 6 changes the game and they almost lose.
    Virginia- Outright loser.

    So 6-3-1 on those. Benefited from 2 onside kick returns to the house. I ended up playing some other games that I didn't post and ended up having a losing day.

    And then in the NFL.

    Ravens/Bengals
    Vikings/Bucs
    Eagles/Cardinals

    3 games where the losing team feels like they should have won but yet the winning team didn't really get too lucky. Total coinflips. You could convince me that any of those 6 teams were the right side and any of them were the wrong side. These games swing on single plays...the bounce of a fumble that let's it go out of bounce or right back into the offense's hands as oppose to being picked up by the defense. Two batted balls that fall right into the Saints defense's arms as opposed to falling harmlessly to the turf. Could have been 10-14 more points for the Packers.

    It's why when people ask me, "Who are the locks this weekend?" I tell them, "There is no such thing. These are plays I am making hoping to win 55-58% of them." If I hear somebody use the word lock, I know they haven't been in the game long or don't understand.

    Morale of the story. Manage your money. If you like a game a little more than usual...take a shot. Put double your normal bet on it. If you are a $20 bettor and really like a game...put 50 on it. Don't be dumb. There are no locks.

    Sorry for the manifesto. I was out drinking with some guys yesterday and I watched a guy lose entirely too much money on the Colts. He thought it was a 'lock'. Now, I liked the Colts. I put a little more than normal on it but this is a guy who bets 50-100 a game and lost like a dime on the Colts. Just stupid.
  • Iliketurtles
    Well said TBone....

    I already put $25 on the Saints -2.5 for Thursday. Probably will put some more money on Dallas(Already have $25 on them) and thinking about putting some on the under for tonight.
  • SportsAndLady
    I have a bunch of random bets for tonight's game. Don't expect to hit Any of them but they were all $2 bets that payout anywhere from $25 to $500

    Here's to tonight's game not having a touchdown lol
