    I got burned by Texas last year when I bet them going into the shoe, I'm hesitant to even bet on it

    I might just be weird and enjoy the game without wagering in it

    ( Doubt it though )

    Perk…. are you getting all these boosts from DK? I’m getting hammered with them. 😳 I’ve already used 3 boosts on college and nfl and they just keep coming.

    2 $5 parlays. 1)Texans +1/Giants +3. 2)Overs KC 43.5/Cleveland 40.5.
    Takes me 3-4 weeks to get into the flow of the season.

    This one turned out just right… 1 catch for 7 yards in the first quarter.

    Once Darnold vacated the premises, I assume many bettors migrated in a mad rush to the books to bet the under total.

    Wonder if it did reach a low of under/over 24 or whatever at that time. I agree it's hard to fool the books. They usually cover all the angles, long before the bettors get in on a seemingly good angle.

    IDK, I didn't actually look but imagine seeing it hit 24 and ripping on the over?

    That would be infuriating!!

    I’m 3-0 so far on football so I’m just going to keep the bets small and hope I keep winning. 4 open bets now so if I go 7-0 I’ll probably suffer a myocardial infarction.

    4-leggers are usually death, but i felt good about that one. Boston had just lost two at home to a crap team (Angels), and i thought surely they'll knock it off against another bad one (KC), especially when they trot their ace out against a Royals pitcher who had a 5+ ERA.

    nope. incredible.

    on the bright side, losing all of these very winnable games bodes well for perk's friend

    Not only did Lugo pitch better than usual, but the KC bullpen threw 4 scoreless innings which is almost unheard of from them. If they still had Strahm and Erceg that’s a win for the Sox.
    If the Royals can at least win 1 of the next 2 from the Sox that would be a minor miracle for perk’s buddies going 2-4 against the Angels and Royals with a tougher schedule coming up.
    Boston’s next 3 opponents are all trying to win their division so they will all be highly motivated, Rangers, Rays, Guardians.

    i'm going to keep this as short as possible

    i'm not saying the Mich-OU game was rigged. not saying that at all. i'm simply saying that someone knew something. perhaps the rarest case of osmosis? whatever the case, there were people who formulated an outcome that seemingly no one saw coming, and i'd literally pay money to tap into their head because i legit wanna know how that happened.

    whether it's fundamental or otherwise, i need to know why the spread & ML shrunk instead of growing in number over the course of the week, and especially hours before the game.

    i read up on this game all week and i'm here to tell you that no one -- not one single person -- who broke it down and/or made a prediction said to touch Michigan.

    but when i saw the ML drop and the spread dip from from -5.5 to -4.5, i knew something unforeseen was about to happen. i just didn't have the cojones to act on it.

    everyone going one way + the money flow going the opposite direction = you better grab your junk and hold on tight, because you're about to be in for a big surprise

    is it truly as simple as someone saying.......you know what, my brain says a regression to the mean is coming for both teams, therefore i'm dropping six figures on the Wolverines......?

    i. need. to. know.

    They had the ball on the Saints 1 yard line and had a holding call. Field goal instead of TD. Should be over. 😡

    if Philly loses, it won't matter

    but i still might share anyway :D

    Bears & Panthers scored 96

    did the over cash ?

    my team responsible for 59 of them

    and then we had Bills-Texans

    it feels like i've witnessed a season's worth of exhilarating insanity in one day

    like if they decided to end the NFL season today, i'd say "man that was a great season"

    Had Jared Goff thrown for 210 or 230.yards I would have cashed for close to $800 more

    The Chargers are trash. After I hit the 4 early games I thought they would destroy Arizona. I was lucky I got decent offers to cash out because when I cashed Arizona was up by 9 in the 4th and had just gotten the ball on a Chargers punt.

    The Chargers are a joke, that sucks because that would have been a gorgeous hit otherwise ( Providing Dallas wins which they should )

    I'm actually still numb to missing good payouts over stupid stuff but I got to stress how ridiculous that Jared Goff couldn't through for 230.yet Hough throws for 400 and Bryce Young throws for 360

    A parlay with Young and Hough 350.each would have paid at least a grand
