I bet 2 tem 6pt teasers and i'm doing well. But yesterday I bet

redskins and patriots in one teaser and patriots and tampa in other one and they cover ats. I should win more but i'm happy with the money I make with this bets, in gact I bet a 6 team teaser and just raiders need the points, and i wasn't thinking yesterday about why i didn't played it ats without teaser, I think we have to be ok of the way we bet and not thinking on more or lloking for plays we don't have, focus in our game!

here is another one, if you don't jump into a play early (for example, a team you like, you didn't play it and it's winning by 21 and you play 2nd half with a 17 points line higher than the original)

do'n try to force it on 2nd half, you already miss your chance on that game and your are trying to win second half becasue you feel bad for not playin before. It will be more games.

1.  i think the hardest thing in gambling is to accept a bad beat or just losing itself.. you MUST be able to handle a loss and move on. tomorrow, you will feel better(maybe not ok) and will be able to handle  the gambling scene with a clear head...TRUST ME, its tough, but a MUST.

2.  Know you are not going to win everyday, you are trying to win over the long haul.

3.  pick your spots, you don't have to bet every game or even every day. the bookies love volume plays for the juice.

4. don't increase your wagering when you are cold, it will really sink you most of the time.

5. Betting is a marathon, not a sprint.

with that said..I feel like if you fade the 2nd half chaser you can profit very well.. ie last nite with fiu.....everyone and i mean everyone jumped on toledo second half and look what happend

I was in church yesterday with my I-Phone up on Espn.  The Phone stayed still when FIU was 4th and 17 if I remember correctly.  I have FIU -1 1/2 and the over.  I was hoping for a tie game for OT but when Toledo went for 2 I was cursing in my head in the middle of church.  Church was quite exciting yesterday.

Long Story Short I have a gambling problem.  It is games like this, that give me such a high that Is addictive and can't be describe by words.  That last 4 minutes in the 4th quarter was an eternity.  4th and 17 I stared at my phone for 10 damn minutes till it said 1st and 10.  I almost jizzed in my pants... god forgive me I was in church.

With all that being said my advice would be "Don't start gambling." and if you did start gambling I have another one "Don't bet on the fact that anything is DUE, like a trend is DUE to end, or the Favorite is Due or the under is Due, ride the bus till the wheel fall off just like when you play Baccarat."

adding my cents, things that have not been mentioned:

the money you are gambling with is set aside for betting purposes and you have every material thing in your life that you have wanted or need first.... there is nothing worse than blowing $300 bucks on a game and then thinking, "shit, i could have bought an ipod with that"

Bet more underdogs than favs.

Don't lay points on the road
