Been dwindling for awhile, time to take a shot. If I lose I'm done for the season, if I win, I'm also done for the season and will gladly walk away up 15k.

If I win I'll be celebrating at the Aria with a few friends. Anyone in Vegas?

Pacers +1

$22,000 to win $20,000

Good luck.

This is actually precisely the way to make money gambling. Everyday gamblers like yourself always lose in the end. Always.

As I leave this season with $15,000 extra in my pocket, I have one message for people like you: "pick your spots wisely".

We did it boys!

Very thankful it wasn't a sweat, easy coast to victory the whole way through.

I'll be having drinks somewhere in the Aria after I cash my ticket.

Absolute brutal beat for under betters

29 points the last minute and a half. Why can’t teams ever concede being down double digits with less than a minute left ? Milwaukee still fouling yet they were getting their azzes kicked all game I cannot figure this out

This is absolutely true. I know a very well known day trader in NYC who makes a single trade maybe once every 3 days while most day traders trade on average 15-25 tickets per day. He picks his levels and snipes a single high probability trade but puts a lot of capital to work. Then takes waits for the next opportunity. He obviously has a ridiculous win percentage and a crazy return on his initial investment.

I personally like to diversify my bets, but that's because I'm not that good. So far, I'm winning, but I don't have the capital or the balls to make large wagers like that on a single bet. HarDix is employing a winning strategy as long as he knows his spots and wins a large pct of them.

Pacers was scoring with 20 sec left in the shot clock being up double digits with 2 mins left. Was kind of obvious what they was trying to do.

Great example Froggy! You are absolutely correct. It's a super focused type of betting style where games need to fit every category of a system to be bet-able. You are going to have very few wagers (which is why most won't like it - there is too many 'action' junkies in here), but a very high win rate. And in turn you wager a bigger amount each time.

Very lucrative strategy if done well.

I will continue to look for spots but as of now I am done with the season and happy to walk away with a nice chunk of profit.

I'm currently flying back to California with $54,000 in my briefcase and you're still betting on games everyday while down thousands. Take care.
