Study hard bro! So many options with CFB! CBB, and NBA! Good going.
Thanks SW, but as I mentioned in my 1st post, my strategy is to try to do no worse then 4-3 in a given week, and as soon as I hit 4 wins I stop.....that's what I meant when I said I love having weekends off, because it means the week has gone very well.....
I have been asked why I do this, since doesn't it break up a winning streak?
On the surface, it doesn't make too much sense to stop in the middle of a hot streak....but as we all know, every hot streak is almost always followed by a cold streak, and not to say that I win every week....of course not.....but I have found that it is easier to sustain weekly winning streaks by not using up all my wins in 1 week, if you will....because I (as many others) deal with a local, everything is necessarily measured in 1 week increments.....therefore the goal is not necessarily to try to win every day, but to end the week with more wins then losses.....
The reality is that at 4-1, the only way for me to improve on my current standing is to go 2-0, and realistically it is unlikely that this will happen....more likely I will go 1-1 and cost myself some juice, but I can also go 0-2 and lose most of my winnings for the week.....so why risk it? I am up almost 3 grand, which is a shitload of money.....when I meet my guy next Tuesday, it will be a very pleasurable experience for me....why would I want to do anything to jeopardize that?
I will look at games on the weekend just too stay on top of everything, but I will not wager until Monday.....however, maybe I will pop back in here if there is anything tomorrow that I really love....maybe my "if I were playing" play

Plus, it infuriates my guy to no end when I stop just like this in the middle of the week when I am up a good amount
He always asks me if everything is ok lol....I am sure he is used to seeing his players up on Wednesday and down by Sunday, so he hates it when I do not give him the chance to get some of his money back.....and honestly, the guy is a bit of a douche, so this truly, TRULY adds a element of enjoyment to the whole exercise

Great work RusseUK your on point with your daily picks. Thanks again for sharing brotha! Totally agree with you on quitting while you are ahead for the week. Nothing like a nice relaxing weekend knowing Money will be coming in a couple of days.

Thanks for all the kind words guys.....I really appreciate it
Like I said yesterday, I am not playing anything today or tomorrow, however there are a couple of lines I really like....take it with a grain of salt as I am not playing these, and win or lose I will not count them on my record....
I loved the Raps but the game has already started and I wasn't able to post earlier.....but if they are down at the half I think they are a great 2H play....
As for games that haven't started, Chicago, Boston and Denver look very good to me, but if I was playing I think it would be Houston.....they have yet to win a home game (0-2) and Detroit is still on the extended road trip that they are 0-5 on.....Houston should be motivated to finally give their home fans something to cheer about.....they should win by double digits...
BOL to all

Thanks for the post rIIk! Hope you are enjoying your winning week-end! And sharpening the knife for Monday! I went with nuggets again as I really like what I am seeing, took small spurs as I'm concerned if pop sits guys but if not they should roll! More talent and much deeper! Took under on celts at 192! Catch you soon! Xv

Houston wins by 14.......maybe I should have kept playing lol....
Just kidding....I am happy with my system as it has worked for me over the long term, so no regrets....every time I stop early like this, I still hope to win the weekend even though I am not actually wagering.....so I am happy that the Rockets covered.....and I will probably post another unofficial play tomorrow, and I will hope to win that one too.....
Hopefully my post helped someone make some money tonight, even if that someone wasn't me

McShady and group had a similar betting style in MLB chasing dogs betting system. One win in a three game series chase. If win on first game they stop, if not double and go on to game two, if lose double on game three and swallow the loss if lose. Never went to many game threes in my recollections and you had the option to bail anytime or go for a push instead of doubling. Nice system to me.

R2k...nice call on Houston, i got so lucky with the nuggets last night!!! Any insight for today? Thinking lakers and clippers.
The Pistons finally had nothing left for a late run and cover, and the Rockets took care of business to get their 1st home win......
And that was a great game for Nuggets backers.....especially at the end of the 1st OT when it looked like GS was going to take it....but just horrible execution all over the court for the Warriors in the last 30 seconds, and after that they had nothing left in double OT...
Again, I am not playing today, but if I were, I have to think the play would be the Lakers....Sacramento is a scrappy team, but fading them when they go on the road isn't a bad idea....Lakers are motivated to keep winning in the post Mike Brown era....I think they keep the momentum going in Game 2 AB.....I hate that this will no doubt be a huge public play, but sometimes public plays win, and I think this is one of those times....
BOL if you play it.....Again I am not, and win or lose I will not count it on my record

I too hate rolling with the public!!! Which is why I took the saints today!!! I just think the lakers are looking to make a statement and like you said fading a bad team without the same level of motivation is always a good thing! Thanks I'm on lakers!! Look forward to your posts

These systems have a lot of merit.....you just have to make sure that you set your unit size correctly relative to your bankroll, because a loss on this system eats up 7 units if you are playing +money odds, and almost 9 units if you are paying juice.....but 5 years ago I played a system like this in baseball, betting yes on whether there would be a score in the 1st inning for 3 teams that had this happening over 60% of the time, Detroit, Florida and Pittsburgh......it was exactly this type of 3 game system....I started at about the midway point of the season and took exactly 1 loss, and even that was with 2 weeks left in the season......which is a very good thing because the lines were usuallu -140 or worse, so the loss was very costly, but even so I played with $100 units and cleared about $12,000.....I have yet to find anything else that I could play on a 3-game system with confidence, though I continue to search

Lakers win by 13......all in all a great week......officially 4-1 and collecting almost 3 grand, and 2-0 unofficially over the weekend.....even my bonus NFL Texans play cashes
Hopefully I can keep it going starting tomorrow
Good night y'all
