No matter what the Moneyline is, all over/under's should be up on the board.
We should be able to pick the underdogs on the moneylines.
Any underdogs above +400 should count as 2 wins.
And last but not least...anybody that gets one correct pick gets to water board Michael Vick!  .
BTW, My record is 7414-645-44-42. My longest streak was 11. I can remember the excitement of getting that far and barely missing pick 12. Last week I hit 6 and was in a hurry to go somewhere and just made a quick pick and blew it.
??????????????????????????+?

#153 Posted: 9/30/2009 11:30:31 AM Good thread man! I bet you probably didn't think it would go this long when it started...
I sucked my first 100 picks or so, but I'm coming back strong to get to 500, going 13-2 in my last 15... getting close
Good luck to all at getting over 500!!!!!
and GO BENGALS!! |

#154 Posted: 10/4/2009 9:27:15 PM I am 96-92-5 with an 8 game win streak going. I think the key is being patient. You don't have to bet a game everyday. I am not going to touch MNF tomorrow because this game can go either way. I like the packers w/ the points, but there is no way i am betting against favre. Minn wins 20-17. |

#159 Posted: 10/10/2009 3:42:18 PM Really...3-0... come on now. I'm 8-0-1 this month and will try my luck with the NFL tomorrow. See if i can make it 9 in a row, overall i'm 101-86-7... could be better for sure, but all that matters is the current streak... next game please!
Good luck all!

#160 Posted: 10/10/2009 3:59:57 PM 3-0 great start, I wouldn't think you have it figured out, not too many winners since this started. I can't get past a streak of 6 and I am only 21-12 overall. |

Definitely not! Glad it has. Love everyone's different takes on their overall % in relation to their streaks.
It's weird now, I'm not sure whether I should make a pick every day to try for the monthly total prize. If you have a good streak going, you could put it in jeopardy by picking every day.

#163 Posted: 10/14/2009 7:51:05 AM I am in that situation right now. Streak of 11 going and i'm on top in the monthly total. I know i'm due for a bad beat in my streak, so i'm playing everyday trying for the monthly $1000 prize.
I really have no choice but to go for both.. 6 more in a row for $1000 or 17 days to stay ahead of the rest of the monthly crew.
Who really knows... hell i'm greedy I want them both! lol Actually all i'm really thinking about is win number 12 in a row... take it one day at a time, all you can do.
Good luck all! |

#165 Posted: 10/17/2009 2:20:01 AM Just started 12-4 overall, 10-2 this month Oct-2009, lost last night with Rutgers+5.5. Ranked #89 overall in this months win totals. Best streak was 6 in a row. I pick EVERY DAY without research. If I played less I would never lose since I sometimes play the only pick offered for the day, tha's were I go wrong. If this was DO OR DIE I'd be more selective and not play games just because they are the only game of the day offered. With MLB, NHL, NCAAFB, NBA and more going on, hopefully we will have more daily choices soon. Good Luck to all. |

Yes, you do get the $25, it's a free play at Diamond Sportsbook...BUT, you have to be a new player there and sign up for a new account, then you will get the $25 free play... if your like me, I have an account there so I didnt get my $25... just waiting to see if I get the Hat and hoodie for 9 and 13 wins. Also in hopes of actually getting paid $1000 when I win this months Survivor's monthly total contest. LOL You gotta belive right?!?!
Good luck all |

#171 Posted: 10/24/2009 6:00:27 AM It's is hard to have fun when your streak is just starting off, just know that people at the top are falling and your climbing to the top. I just went through it, lots of fun, but i did my 13 in 13 days... because I was at the top of the monthly totals too, and the night I lost, only one game to choose from... hockey... it was a coin toss, and I lost my streak... but i'm still on top in the monthly, and with 9 days/bets left for the month... i'm 4 wins away from the magic 23 number (23 has won the $1000 Survivor monthly total last 8 months!) so i have a great shot at the $1000. I'm actually as hot as they get, I'm also in 2nd place in the $5000 Bet Jamaica Baseball playoff pool.... And have such a lead over 3rd that I really can't get caught for 2nd ($750 plus $5000 drawing of about13 people), check the pool out and see what i'm talking about. Combined picks for both contests... 40-6-1. Gotta love the waves when they come, they don't often happen. Do your research, it works! Can't get to 17 in a row without the first pick winning... they all count!
Good luck all. |

I must have been really stoned! Actually, when I made my picks the games I really wanted were gone, so I kinda had no choice. Got back on track last night with good old Miami -6 in a runaway over the low life Knicks....and got really lucky when the four tied with me in wins all lost. I'm still in a good spot, if I can win two out of the next three I can't be beat, no matter who goes 3-0. Ties go to me with the better win%. So i'm looking to end this thing tomorrow. lol Good luck with your picks |
