Let's talk about our "Jimmy the Greek specials"

Being honest I don't like anything about tonight's game, it's very similar to the Giants vs Raiders. 2 crap teams and it looks to be a coin toss, I would have bet the house on the Giants and lost so if I were to bet this game the home ream plus 3+ points is the only way I'd bet it

Good Luck @galaxy27

So the home team ream is the play?

I don’t know if you’ve ever realized this but sometimes your misspellings’ are hilarious. 🤣

Perkdog, a lot of times spellcheck changes my words into something not even close to the word I’m trying to type. 😡😡

I realized there was no way I could figure out a system that worked for me. It’s truly amazing how the lines are so equal. Now my question is (since I’ve not gambled in 30+ years how does the money line work. I know it’s straight up no point just win or loose. When they say -4000 what does that mean for a $100 bet? I know the favorite is the - part. And what does it mean for a +4000 on a $100 dollar bet

Thanks guys

here's another example. on Sunday the Cowboys are 17-point favorites against the Giants. here's the current money line at my book:

Dallas -1700
NY Giants +900

when talking about the team that's favored, which in this case is the Cowboys, the money line is set up to where you must bet the amount shown in order to win 100$. in other words, if you want to bypass the point spread and simply pick the Cowboys to win (the money line), then you must risk 1700 if you want to win 100. bet 850 to win 50, so on and so forth.

conversely, the figure next to the underdog -- which in this case is the Giants -- is the amount you'd win if you wagered 100$ on them to win the game. if you bet 50$ and they win, you'd receive 850........so on and so forth.

@galaxy27
That is exactly what I needed
I was trying to figure it out on my own and I was making it harder than it is to understand.

Thanks

actually i goobered one of the figures. it should have said bet 50 on the Giants to win 450, not 850. but i think you've got it.

just remember that the money line is centered around 100 bucks -- how much you have to drop to win 100 on the favorite, and how much you win if you drop 100 on the underdog.

I got a sneaky hunch tonight
Jets defensive touchdown anytime +700
For $50

3 late bad beats for me:Cinn,Jets,GB.

good luck count🍻

i think we've established what it's like to bet on the NBA. it's sheer insanity. no lead is safe.

i'm doing cartwheels over here right now because not only did count win a 3-teamer tonight, but he did so by taking a team that was down 23 points in the 3rd and ended the game on a 21-1 run to win (Toronto). if i had bet on that game i'm sure i would have unloaded on the Wizards.

WELL done 💰

I'm not going to tell you that I was not at least somewhat aware of what was going on in those 3 games, but I did not watch one single second of NBA last night - nor have I - nor will I - watch any highlights of the action from those games. I'm all about just looking forward and on to the next opportunity for the easy money... lol.

(Yeah, I have it aaalllllll figured out.) 😉

i have got to be the biggest wanker for continuously trying to connect on these death bets NFL parlays. but they are my crack and i keep snorting them

if the Texans win, the Jags win, and the Cowboys lose to the Panthers, i will pour cyanide in Dak Prescott's coffee

NFL parlay placed Monday with early lines.


.
NFL parlay placed this morning. Needed to get it to +400 for a 50% profit boost.

NCAA Football. All teams were 10+ point favorites except Georgia, which was only 9.5 on the Caesars app. Once it was at least +400, I got a 50% profit boost.
.

with 4:22 left in the 3rd quarter: San Antonio 85, Memphis 67

so with the +3 i'm up 21

final score: Memphis 120, San Antonio 108

someone kindly shoot me in the head while i'm asleep

😴🔫

Yes, I lost the Chicago game.

RESULTS:

2/3 and 3/4 on the NBA parlays

21/23 on the NCAA football moneyline parlay, all were 10+ point favorites except Georgia at 9x.

14/17 on the NCAA basketball moneyline parlay, all were 10+ point favorites.

Let's see some points today in the NFL!

count i saw your bets but didn't realize until your post that the Spurs got you too.........and so did the Heat. really gross, but that's the nature of the NBA. i sound like a broken record, but i can't emphasize it enough...........no lead is safe in pro basketball. this season isn't even a quarter old and i've already seen 15-20 examples of teams with ~20 point leads lose games outright. i have a difficult time wrapping my mind around what's going on.

honestly, a profitable strategy would probably be to monitor every game and go the live action route. drop a 10-spot on any team that is way behind early, because there's a puncher's chance that they will come back and win & you'll really get paid off. but ain't nobody got time for all that.
