KS, it was really, really lucky. I bet 10% of my bankroll on every wager, and when I won, it compounded.
I only bet money lines on vast top dogs, like -170 or better. Most of the time, I only bet one game a day, and I got lucky. When I lost, I handled it well, but a few times I got frantic, doubled down to recoup my losses, and then won the money back by betting on red hot teams. Like a lucky idiot. I'm 59-23 on the year, so I think all the sports I absorbed with my Dad as a kid might have paid some dividends. I'll still say 30% skill/70% luck (especially on those double downs), and I'm experimenting with some new, more conservative methods to see what it yields. I'll share my newest system after I get a little more data to see how it shakes out. Cheers, fellas. |

Put 50 bucks on a sportsbook this June, and I hit my first $1000 Bankroll Balance yesterday with the Reds.
Cheers guys, I stole a few of your picks to get here. Thanks for all your help, and I like the Phillies Money line today. |

No money on this one, just a Dodgers fan, and you have got to be fucking kidding me.

Bats are dead. I'm a fourth generation LA fan, and my fingers are crossed for you, but I wouldn't have made that bet. They're just limp right now.

I bet on them in the first game of the series with KC, but I watched it, and I did not like how that shit was going down.
They lucked out with some key power hitting late, but otherwise, their bats were dead as Dillinger. I very nearly bet on them last night, I mean, fuck, it was the Royals after all. But I spotted a bad trend in the way their runs were going in the last week, a very steady decrease that kept me holding my chips. Now, I look at the runs scored for the past week. If I see that trend, I lay off. Even if the 88 Dodgers are playing the 2012 Astros. Forget it.

I'm gonna need to smoke about six tons of weed after this game. I'm not gonna sleep a wink otherwise.

He keeps pitching like that, we may get another inning out of him!

The fouls are a problem. Seems like the Sawx are drawing contact on every pitch.
