For the rest of Preseason's Week 1, I will be posting in this thread.

I'm taking Colts / Rams UNDER 38.5 (-110) @ betjamaica for one unit.

Looking strongly at taking the Colts at +5.5 @+101 or selling some points and getting to +4.5 @+107. Also, when the smoke clears regarding Philadelphia's injuries, may look at betting on Philly as well.

But for now, Colts/Rams UNDER 38.5 (-110), one unit

Adding

Eagles -3 -115 @ betjamaica for two units.

~~~
For all my bets, it is always risking x number of units to win whatever amount of units, not risking whatever amount of units to win x number of units.

Adding:

Denver Broncos -2.5 @ Detroit Lions (-106) @ Pinnacle for one unit

Ya Preseason!

NYG/BAL UNDER 34 (-106) @ Pinnacle for 1 unit

Before you ask, yes...I am blindly betting unders for this first week of preseason.

Yuch...today was not the best of days. 4-4-1. But at least I do hit up dog moneylines, which help a bit. All in all, up a little. And being up is MUCH better than being down, so I'll take it. (Not that I have much choice )

Two selections for the last two games of preseason's week 1:

WAS/CIN UNDER 35.5 @ Matchbook (-107) (-109.2 if I win) for 1 unit
MIN -2.5 vs. OAK @ Pinnacle (-112) for 1 unit

I may upgrade the second play to 2 units later, but am still looking into it for now.

[ensign_lee]

*changing the nature of my Was/Cin bet.

I have under 35.5 @ -107 (Pinnacle)

I took second half bet OVER 16 @ +107 (Pinnacle) - 45.7 to win 50

This essentially makes me have two bets:
UNDER 35.5
OVER 31

If the total lands on 31, I win the under bet only and push the over
If the total lands on 32, 33, 34, or 35, I win BOTH bets
If the total lands anywhere else, I lose nothing.

Sounds like a plan to me?

Because of this, the was/cin under will not count as a play, since I essentially bought it back.

WOOH MIDDLE! LET'S GO!

[ensign_lee]

uh...the above post should say that I have under 35.5 -107 @ Matchbook. WHOOPS. :P

Well, I took my shot at risking 0 to win slightly less than two units, and it didn't work. But hey...I didn't lose anything. So woohoo!

I figure the best way to count this play (since I really should count it) would be to count it as a push, since I didn't win, and I didn't lose.

Shame the middle didn't work out. Oh well.

For those of you who just took the under, congrats on your win!

I've upgraded the Minnesota -2.5 (-112) @ Pinnacle play to two units.

[ensign_lee]

I have no clue what just happened in that Minnesota game...why didn't the coach kick the field goal to tie the game and go into overtime?!?!

But, regardless... Loser today...damn.
