Babying 613 Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Ugh not so good day gambling.I should have hedged Sweden in the final but didn't because I'm heard imaginary serge in my ear telling me hedging is for losers. Well fuuuck me lol bc it made me a loser.Then I feel real good bout my atlanta bet bcLebron and wade are out. Mario charmers decides to be superman and bosh hits his 2nd 3 pointer of the year at the end of the game. I made a little of it back on the under for the leafs and hopefully milwaukeea covers my redonkulous spread bet.And ps arp, I am about 95% sure Barkley bet the hawks bc he's a degenerate and also he mentioned during the game, anybody knows the hawks to win by like 20, so they should easily win by 2. The spread was 1.5 lolI agree with Serge, hedging is for losers (unless it is for a large amount)Hate Bosh. That game was yours.Nice on betting the Leafs under. You knew Monster was getting a shutout?Watching the Milwaukee game, good luck. Link to post Share on other sites

That game was yours.Nice on betting the Leafs under. You knew Monster was getting a shutout?Watching the Milwaukee game, good luck.I never have a reason to bet a team or an outcome lol. 95% of the bets were just on the over. So I just took the under.I hate playing over/unders, I suck at them. I only do it if it makes all the sense in the world to bet the over.Contrarian betting is shiit. Just bet on what u want lol and hope for the best. Link to post Share on other sites

I had a little on our team (LOL I can't even remember who we bet on) to win -3 too. Wish we'd done this bet at the half, prob paid ridiculous amounts. Link to post Share on other sites

mrdannyg 274 Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Pretty sure I'm going to start looking for NBA games where a team is up by 15-20 and bet the dog on the point spread for the second half. Seems like every NBA game someone goes up by 15 and the game ends 5 points or less apart. Link to post Share on other sites

pezeveng 207 Posted January 6, 2012 Share Posted January 6, 2012 Baseball its the only sport where my logic works. Its no secret that it has the softest lines and vegas hates setting lines for it because its so hard to do on a daily basis.If I do start up again it won`t be until June.percentage wise basketball is the most profitable for the books.

Seems like baseball is the simplest sport, since it is so little a 'team game' and so much a measure of percentages. Maybe the oversimplicity is what makes people actually able to bet on it, rather than football/basketball which people think they know, but in reality are considering such a small percentage of the information.

I never touch basketball or baseball since I am not a fan of either.That Mil game last night was god awful if I had Mil. It would have made me do a Serge and the remote would be in a million pieces.

Ottawa_Biatch 288 Posted January 6, 2012 Author Share Posted January 6, 2012 I find I do better on basketball and football because it's based on a spread. I can't really explain why. But sports like hockey and baseball where you bet on the money line, i do poorly on. Link to post Share on other sites
