Re: Moving the lines by \"hot\" cappers \"free\" posts, beware

That aside, the other problem is that if a handicapper acquires too large a following, the lines will move almost immediately and it will become very, very difficult to get down at the suggested...

Re: Brag Thread - biggest cover you ever had

I generally don't even notice stuff like that, but I do recall having the Packers in that 52-3 run against New Orleans the year before last.

Re: a&m... UPSET

Road dogs of +10 to +15 or so have historically done pretty well ATS, which is why I hate betting into a negative subset like that. Worse than A&M's failure to cover is the outright loss, as I bet...

If you have a book that offers "true odds" on parlays, parlays aren't any different in expectation than straight bets (unless of course it's a correlated parlay.)

Re: 2/13 VDay Special - Penn v Princeton - War at the Palestra

I think the spread is correct at -13, and keep in mind that it's a bit difficult to cover a 13 point spread in a game where there should be so few possessions per team.

Re: What was your coolest Inside Information bet win?

A lot of books only allow betting on pre-taped reality TV shows for small amounts. A couple years ago Fezzik posted some information about a pre-taped reality TV show and I was able to bet it on...

Re: Who uses Tradesports ?

Re: Yes!!!!! (OT)

As soon as I read the subject line I thought "what sort of square bets 'yes' on the overtime prop?"

It amazes me that prop's been widely publicized for 4 or 5 years and I can still consistently...

Re: *** Official February Chatter Thread ***

With my money consolidated at the safest books, for the first time in years I wasn't able to get a good line on "no safety." I did risk 1% of bankroll to win 0.125% on "no OT" and "no blocked punt"...

Re: questions about going to vegas sportsbooks for first time

I always get my money before I leave and keep it in a fanny pack. A trip bankroll of around 10k has always been sufficient for me and it's easy to keep that much in a fanny pack.

Re: Pinnacle????????????

Me too, plus Cascade and Skybook. I have tiny balances at some other books but no more than "spare change" (i.e. less than 1% of bankroll.)
