i said a couple of weeks ago that i was done with golf until next year, but i always reserve the right to change my mind in this phenomenal thread
that's what we gamblers do
we're degeneratively whimsical like that
trying something different with this one. along with my bet, i'm including a picture of captain america when he signed my masters champs flag over 4 years ago
Perhaps the pic will bring out a win for ya. I can't recall ever posting a pic of Chuck Bednarik, one of my all-time favorite players, and it failed to get an Eagles win for me.
I couldn’t help myself on this bet. They’re my favorite team that made the playoffs, they have the best record in baseball and as has been stated they are relentless. I actually think these odds are longer than they should be because the Dodgers are so hyped up. And we don’t even know if Ohtani will be completely healthy for the playoffs. I actually might put more money on them if I do well on my football wagers.
just when i think gambling can't get more unbelievable
including that picture of Reed with my bet added some juju all right.......of the worst possible kind
last week, he finished tied for 2nd at the Irish Open. this week was the BMW PGA, a tourney where he had never finished outside the top 5. in his opening round yesterday, he shot 4-under and was positioned nicely inside the top 10.
and then....
🔥1🔥5🔥0🔥$🔥
rarely does anything shock me anymore when it comes to the outcome of bets, but i'm legit stunned right now. i pulled up the leaderboard to see how he was doing today, and when i saw him at the very bottom (where guys who either retire from the tournament or are disqualified reside), i couldn't believe my eyes
I got lucky because I have the bills in 3 separate parlay bets, all moneyline, which I shouldn’t have done because it’s the old all the eggs in one basket thing. But I got away with it. Now if the Ravens win I’ll receive a nice payout.
I don't mean this to be the least bit funny, but after seeing some of these awful beats, my Dodgers fiasco doesn't seem as bad.
This is getting all too sick beyond belief. You'd think it would begin to even out a little bit for crying out loud. 😒
I'm still on the sidelines since September 2. There are a few NFL games jumping out at me, but not good enough value to bet.
My book has a free to play $500,000 jackpot game for Saturday that I played. You pick ten college games with the spread. For example if only one player hits all ten games, it would result in $500k bonus bets added to his account. I think if only one player picks say nine games, that player still wins the 500k. If two players pick nine games, it would be 250k each, etc. Can't complain despite the long odds, better than no contest at all. So that'll be my action for the weekend. 😐

That result is like a missle up the backside. Unreal.
Successful transactions:Tookybandit. "Everyone is equal, some are more equal than others".
That result is like a missle up the backside. Unreal.
I can't recall any wager I've ever seen, sicker than that. You'd understand that possibility of injury in football or whatever, but in golf? And when you're sitting pretty after the first round?
That result is like a missle up the backside. Unreal.
saw this and had to share. this is pretty much me in this thread. body parts getting injured, shit flying everywhere.
if there's any justice, Houston won't lose by more than 17 tonight and the Eagles won't lose by more than 2 points to the Titans on Sunday (surely they'll just win outright).
if those two things happen, it'll perfectly offset my latest ill-conceived bet on golf

Dam - I got the first 5 games "correct" - starting to scare me a little bit.
I ain't gonna start looking at any new car brochures quite yet. I'm sure the next 5 games will screw me. LOL

Yep, lost 4 out of the next 5.
It was fun while it lasted. LOL
I finally did the math on it. The odds of picking ten straight spread bets, basically like a coin flip, are around 1,000 to one. Considering the game is free to play, and this is one of the largest books, I'm gonna guess there were probably around a million entrees. So the reality is even if ya hit all ten games, the win is "only" going to pay around $500 in bonus bets.
That 15 pick parlay hurt, had Indiana scored 42 it would have hit, didn't help that they couldn't freaking score in the first quarter in that cupcake game
Off topic but have you guys received any of the new coins in change yet? I love the dimes, I’ve been checking prices on eBay, proof sets are pretty expensive. Might buy a few rolls of dimes and quarters. I haven’t received any in change yet.

Good looking coin.
I haven't done a cash transaction in well over 20 years, might be around 30.
You could go to your bank and ask for a couple rolls of dimes, etc, and see if ya get any that way. Perhaps get lucky and there's some silver in there.

$5 ML parlay:Bills,Bears,Eagles,49ers,Ravens.
Okay, am alive into Sunday with 4 strong favorites as ML. So which one gets upset?😁
I figured one would lose, but not two. Ironic you can sense who may lose for you, but not who will win for you when you have a live bet.
Form the first few weeks of a new season is always tough to gauge. Of course the minute ya start playing the long shots, the form becomes like Secretariat.
Two minute end of game warning, and there's a lightning delay of game. Bucs have the ball and I need a TD. The defense is getting a nice rest. Hope this isn't a harbinger of the season ahead for me. 😝

Poor Mets
$5 ML parlay:Bills,Bears,Eagles,49ers,Ravens.
Bored last night so felt like flushing a couple $20 bills lol
Sports betting - tough way to make a living.
I previously read that somewhere.

Best of luck with the Captain galaxy.
$5 parlay. Red Sox over 8 runs,ML Bills,Bears,Ravens,49ers.

i gotta have more action on this game

Galaxy if you win that one I’ll win this one! I had to throw in Josh 15+ yards rushing to qualify for the 50% boost.
Let’s hit it!
@Darin
right on ! 🍻
Never mind. LOL
Josh Allen, long time Bills QB, scoring the first TD in the new stadium.
A gift prop bet if there ever was one, and yes, I didn't think of it either. 🤔
I usually always hit up my baw Kincaid. I did not last night. My loss ... but …
COPPER is gutter !
The good news: Bills scored 41 (yes, and won). The bad news: Gave up 31.
Will see how this plays out going forward with a leaky defense.

Such a cute little outcome on this
Missed a payout by Allen not getting 2 more yards passing
A nice rear end frosta

That result is like a missle up the backside. Unreal.
Just saw the book is offering a 100% profit boost specifically on the LSU-Ole Miss game.
No way I can pass that up, so looks like I'll be back in action on Saturday.

This one played out just right for me. 🥳
I signed up for another sportsbook this past week. It was for Circa. They promote themselves as the book for sharp bettors.
I started off 12-0. Finally lost a bet tonight. Dang it! 🙁
.
Penn State covered a large spread in their first game. Didn't cover against Temple last week. Today's spread is 39.5.
I'm leaning towards Penn State covering in this one, but not enough value there, in my opinion. So I'm gonna pass on the game.
Houston completed teaser leg #2 last night. i've got the Eagles +3 tomorrow to finish it off to win 153.85
in the meantime...
-7960.09
I got run over last night, only dropped $165, got a bunch of stuff going today which will probably all lose
I'll post it all up before the weekend is out
Took another look at the Penn State game, and saw some value in the O/U
That's what me likes, a nice easy win to start the FBS and NFL season. 😊
this feels like too many points
-7960.09
I don’t think Ole Miss can hang with LSU…. Darth Kiffin took their best players with him.

5 in a row is about when I start to question whether I'm a wizard... but nope. pretty common.
Yep, lost 4 out of the next 5.
It was fun while it lasted. LOL

Well, back to grinding.

Colts +9.5 alternate spread with a 50% profit boost
if stevek's team doesn't take care of business, it's not going to be a good day for me
-7985.09
Packers ML
Bucs ML
gotta share this before today's games launch
for those in this world who had NC State +3.5, or NC State on the ML, this has to be the worst bad beat of their gambling lives
(yes, Vandy kicked the extra point to win by 4)
Yea, that one made national news.
Head coaches can get fired over chit like that, and deservedly so.
Off topic but have you guys received any of the new coins in change yet? I love the dimes, I’ve been checking prices on eBay, proof sets are pretty expensive. Might buy a few rolls of dimes and quarters. I haven’t received any in change yet.
So nice, I bet it twice! Lol
