What about those of us that believe the subjectivity of rules, limitations on review, and a running clock coupled with shorter career spans (earning potential) create opportunities for inconsistent results when compared to probability models?

Absolutely! I've noticed the change in my winnings (went south) after live betting came on board. Now, huge money can come in during the games, and know this affects initial bets prior to the game starting. Messed with my decades old capping structure, big time. Had to attempt to change with the times. Still learning from this change. This IMHO is what makes winning so difficult now days. Course, as we all know, nothing ever stays the same.

This is the correct way to think about it

Well said brother Glad to see theres others on the forums that dont believe all the silly gambling conspiracies. What it would take for them to fix games and get so many people involved, wouldnt be worth it. Especially for the risk of getting busted. hard enough to keep a conspiracy secret among a few people, can you imagine how hard with many many people involved.
But the truth is sports book donot need to rig games, because bettors will always lose and thats a fact. On top of that the small percentage of people that do win, the sports book either get rid of them or limit their bets to chump change.
If you go play blackjack at a casino and you constantly win, you can rest a sure you will get booted, but i have never seen a casino boss come up to a blackjack player and tell them they are horrible at this and the casino doesnt want your cash
Its all math and the books have that angle figured out. Try to find a ton of winning bettors just on this forum, tough to do. That 10 percent vig is very hard to overcome

Please explain to me like a 6 years old, yesterday Cleveland vs raiders . Last minute of the game when Cleveland is winning 24 to 10 , over / under of this game is 36.5. Cleveland is 4th and 2 @ LV 29 yard line. Instead of kicking a field goal or go for the 4th down , Cleveland punt the ball ………. I mean really ? The kicker nail a 53 yard field goal in the game but you decide to punt at the raiders 29 yard line ?
We all love gambling, making some extra cash but you have to know that the game is rigged. Play with your limit and have fun , that’s all .

Wish it was a flat 10% like years past it appears -112 through -114 with an occasional -109 ) depending what side your on is the norm but yes cd that vig regardless at what one gets it at is tough to overcome for most

The theory goes that coach is trying to win the game and less vested in the over / under.
So with :59 seconds he felt 14 points would be enough and it would've been more prudent to have them start from their own 10 vs. their 29. Also would've likely considered his kickers 75% (3-4) at the 40 - 49 yard range.
and a kicker 3-4 (75%)on the yea

Let’s just say they do Vegas many favors. Bottom line is the sponsors pay the networks. The networks pay the NFL and the NFL pay the players.they keep you watching till the end, hence the spreads and over and under. If you won all the time there would not be a business in betting sports so you have to have money management and that’s where they get us the most.

To me , if the coach really scares and wants to lock in the win with a 14 points lead with 59 seconds left on the clock so bad, he should just try to run for the first down . If they made it , they can knee for the win. Punting the ball @ the 29 yard line is actually worse. If LV blocks the punt they’ll have a better field position. This moves either the coach bet on the under or he has no confidence to his kicker . Like I said , he nailed a 53 yard field goal in the game and he didn’t miss any in the month of November.
Punting at the opposition 29 yard line with 2 scores lead is as bad as I’ve seen in football history.

Accept it or not, he made his choice and they won. If he kicked (or attempted a kick) they still win. So the only outcome impacted is the over / under which I can assure you didn't factor in his thought process either way.
As to the line. By playing either side of it you're asking two bad teams for something (points if over/defense if under) which to date neither have consistently provided.

Here's your 53 yarder. While they do all count the same on the stat sheet.... little bendy.

You really dont know why carolina went for the 2 point conversion tonight? Because san fran had a penalty that moved the ball to the 1 and being they were playing on the road, taking a shot to get that 1 extra point was worth it. Some people really shouldnt be gambling
