 Buddy..I'm late 60's..I've done well enough in work and the stock market which is a lot more stable and predictable..then I allow like $10,000/year to gamble on sports, don't care if I lose it all. Do my best, try to follow instelligent people..see it for what it is, don't try to make your livelihood at it...you'll be ok then..it is a lot more fun than the stock market

 Agree complete nonsense.  It’s statistics for the line in high event probability game played by 22 angry people

Thats all you need to know.   Bet upgraded from Massive to All in. Buying half a point now on the extra bets to make it +3.5.   Oregon probably wins but taking the points for insurance.   Corrupt world. Follow the money trail. Logic and what we think doesn't mean shit.

Jimmy, I can relate to what you are saying.

Regardless of this addiction, I have tried to focus on other things in life that make me happy.

I wish you the best and besides the game tonight, have appreciated your authenticity.

 I used to think like that - Vegas -sharp shit etc.    I changed a long time ago - you gotta think cause and effect, collect data, record data - find patterns and stick to your methodology and good things can happen.   Do you need to look at opening lines and line movement - absolutely but adding in variables like sharps and vegas bending over - I think it's a far reach - my humble opinion.    I enjoy reading your posts - bol to you.

see ya sunday jimmy, you don’t have too make a huge bet because it’sa huge game that’s the problem with some gamblers , and then on the other side you got guys that have too bet every game , you gotta pick your spots, i’ve been betting for 18 years many lessons learned, what jimmy was saying about it the lines and sharps was t necessarily off, but with that logic you should have took colts , the whole world was on niners monday night vs grand pa rivers shoot i took grand pa on that angle and paid the price

I only get a thrill nowadays if I go all in. Its sad.   I've decided to leave it all behind for good. This will be my last post here. I've already wasted enough of my life on this. Its all such a mindfuck. I knew Indiana is the superior team but I went with Oregon.   Because Ive been around for so long Ive come to realize better doesnt even matter. Sick of all this shit. The books lowered the line to 3 despite the entire solar system took the Hoosiers. Would love for someone to explain that one. It just doesn't make any sense.   Even the reptilian aliens on 3I atlas slammed the alternate line on Indiana -7.5. And here I am slamming my ham betting on the inferior team because of the reverse line movement and going all in because its the only way I can even feel anything anymore.   Anyways, even for the best sports bettors in the world, the edge is small. Way better of devoting my life to other projects. I had a good streak of wins when going all in but nobody will ever remember those, only the losses.   Im out of this shitshow for good.    Traveling is more fun anyway.   P.S   Niners are gonna bury the Eagles Sunday   But I won't be reloading my accounts again. Gambling is a fucking joke and I highly advise everyone to stop it immediately it won't get you anywhere.You need to understand its not even about money for us anymore, we do it for the dopamine hits. So theres an underlying issue within us, a void we try to fill with it. I suspect many of you probably have ADHD, which means you have a dopamine deficiency and use this as a method of self medication.   Not gonna lie, it was fun. But its over now.

 

you spoke a lot of truths here. Good luck on your new journey. 
I never really liked how you handled yourself in certain situations but at the end of the day we are all humans and make mistakes.

I hope you are able to find something to fill the void. peace_5

 I wish Indiana was playing another SEC fraud in the title game. Would get a much lower line. They would beat any SEC team by double digits.
