Hell, if everyone else is gonna do it...

    Default Hell, if everyone else is gonna do it...

    I might as well do it too. Looks like we have a very wide range of experience here. I would be at the very inexperienced end of the spectrum. I will be placing all of my bets at a B&M sportsbook here in Las Vegas. My strategy is to bet ML on multiple games and always bet the underdog. I will also play two 4 team parlays each week (more if I think I've found a big edge). These are my week 4 sports pick, you will notice I will mix it up between NCAA and NFL. A unit for me is going to be $25

    OK, one line bet, this one is toooo easy
    Texas Tech +2 (-110) at Texas A&M for 4 units
    --some background, both my folks went to Aggieland, I am a huge A&M fan (altho I did not attend) and I want A&M to win badly. HOWEVER, A&M's pass defense is soooo horrible this pick is pretty much a given, might even call it my lock of the week. Even the 12th man cannot help this week.

    I will be ML the following teams for 1 unit each
    Balt
    NE
    --I'll prolly add a few more once the lines are set, but for now Im definitely going to take these 2.

    These will be my 4 teamers for 1 unit each

    Card 1:
    MIA
    Jacksonville
    NO
    STL

    Card 2:
    MIA
    Jacksonville
    NE
    OAK

    So, i will have 8 units up for grabs, I am a bit of a gambler. Good luck to everyone.

    Well, I didn't end up doing these planned bets, in the end I put 8 units on the ML for TTU at +130

    That means i won a little over 10 units on that one.

    Unfortunately that's where the fun ends

    I ended up playing 3 parlays, losing eachb/c of the Jacksonville game each was .4/unit

    I then put a unit on 4 straight bets which were these:
    Indy -8
    Jacksonville -3
    SEA +3.5
    MIA -4

    All in all I lost about 5 units after my nice 10 unit win.

    Ehh, could have been a huge Sunday and it ended up being a pretty sour one. Watching Santana Moss sprint away w/ my money hurt big time.

    YTD record: +8 units

    This week I will dabbling in teasers as well as looking for that one good ML underdog. The search will begin Tues. morning. I am now 2/2 on these.
