I suggest you ask a gambler what the difference between a money line and a point spread is.
mstef8,
Any of the playoff contests are too short to reflect any skill and you have two options...bet on everything and hope to get hot or don't bother with it. If you're only good at picking sides then just wait for the regular season contest where over 6 months the cream will rise to the top. And who cares about wining percentage? All that matters is the bottom line (money). Stop bitching and play what your good at. If the free website isn't good enough for you go somewhere else.

Same thing here. wagerline is bullshit!
I am 19-5 in the nhl playoff contest ats, better winning percentage than anybody in the top 30, i am ranked 30th as far as units go because i rarely play totals.. I never play totals with REAL MONEY!.. Ill never win the thing!
I only try to play totals so i can try to compete overall otherwise I have no shot but I put zero effort in capping those things! Only reason I dont have a bunch of red stars here is because of dumbshit luck totals! NFL and NHL ill kill it ats but im pulled to play totals i dont take seriously.
even then i overplayed nfl, playing the whole board which affects my record. their should be competitions for 3 best picks a week in nfl. 10 best picks nhl!
the only way to win in sports wagering is to be selective. this playing every game thing to possibly get lucky based on more numbers is just the wrong way to go. im sure that winners in this contest that play so many games will be broke the next year because they are not selective and more than anything it is luck!
Separate contest for those that dont play totals and are selective! |
