On Thursday, Caesars gave me a $50 no sweat bet that could be placed on any wager, at a minimum +300 odds. I didn't want to spend a lot of time on it, so just scrolled Caesars' college football schedule and picked the first +300 team that I saw.

I received a 30% boost, $100 max on a touchdown scorer in the London game. Never heard of this guy, but why not?

I received a 33% boost on a SGP for the Sunday Night game. I had rarely played these kinds of bets until lately, but have been having some success, especially playing the cashout game. Let's see how this goes.

I got lucky PI wasn’t called on the last play of the game. BYU and ND both made plenty of mistakes. Glad to hit this one after Texas let me down… last time I’ll bet on them. I think perk said he doesn’t trust A. Manning and I should have listened.
In Sunday with these 4 parlays. All $5 each.
1)Over 42.5 Texans game/Falcons+0.5/NE ML.
2)Dallas +1/Dallas game over 53/SF ML
3)Texans +2.5/NO ML/Rams ML
4) ML on Buffalo,Rams,49ers,NE/over 44.5 Colts game.
Successful transactions:Tookybandit. "Everyone is equal, some are more equal than others".

Nice win!
DraftKings has been limiting my boosts to $10 max lately.

I'm so gun shy of not taking cash outs when given a double up profit opportunity so I took my money and left $70.on the table that would have won but I'm happy with a double up
I had two bets on Circa for Woody Marks to NOT score a touchdown today. He did not score.
I went to check my updated balance, and was short some money. How the heck do you PUSH a yes touchdown/ no touchdown bet?

I immediately emailed customer support, and they fixed it within 30 minutes.
The last several weeks, FanDuel has offered an "up by 7" token, where you apply the token to a moneyline bet, and of your team ever gets up by 7, you win immediately. I guess they've been getting killed on that, and today made it an "up by 10" token, instead.
Silly me, I thought perhaps the Cleveland Browns would come out a little fired up at home, and get up by 10 on the Ravens, before succumbing to the inevitable mistakes and losing the game.
Imagine when I saw the Ravens jumped out to a 10-0 lead. "Whelp, that money is gone!" Lol...
But nooooo! Cleveland's defense stifles the Ravens the rest of the way, as the Browns were able to mount enough of an offensive comeback to win the game, and save the day for The Count!

this isn't a farewell from sports talk post, but it's a farewell from gambling post. at least for the foreseeable future. if you've gambled long enough, you know when it's time. for me it's not so much about the money as it is the lack of enjoyment. i don't think i've ever been as disgusted as i am at this very moment, and no part of me wants to place enough wager as a result.
what Texas did yesterday almost sent me to the sideline. i very nearly made this post a day ago. but then i thought to myself, i'll give it one more day. one more bet. surely it can't possibly be any worse than absorbing a loss from a team that was ranked #1 in the nation just two weeks ago..........that was up by 2 touchdowns at home against a team (Florida) that had gotten blown out the previous two weeks by Missouri and South Carolina...........AND had a 2nd-string QB in the game who was making his very first start............could it?
a mere 24 hours later the Rams told the Longhorns to hold their beer.
my final leg today was needing the team that was the odds-on favorite to win the Super Bowl before the season started to simply beat a punching bag that's vying for the #1 pick in next year's draft by a single point at home. on a day when Arizona didn't score a single touchdown, mind you. and the Rams found a way to lose that game. i can't wrap my mind around it.
there will not be a stop sign that flashes brighter than the one i'm seeing now.
gl boys, i hope you crush it. i'll still be around, i just won't be cluttering this thread with losing bets.

I hear you brother, I'm literally sitting next to my buddy who is saying the EXACT same thing as you
Sports betting is just grueling, you can have fun with it but eventually it will grind you down and stomp on your balls
I sincerely hope you take a long time out, we can still enjoy talking sports brother

i see a couple of you are aboard the OSU Titanic with me
the spread & ML are shrinking and it's making me a teensy bit nervous
i swear if they lose to Indiana again i'm going to take out my aggression on something
and i will not want to hear what a powerhouse the Buckeyes are ever again
Being honest I ripped my bet on OSU without any hesitation but now I'm not as confident in it
I'm still thinking about how they gave that game away to Texas, that is alarming 🚨
OSU was a miracle sweat
I think I'm shutting it off for the rest of the day unless I rip a Notre Dame bet with a 50% profit boost
congrats to those who bet on OSU and OSU only
I'm still not sure if what i witnessed on that 4th down was real or not
meanwhile, i literally think Texas just shaved a few years off my life
i've never liked them, but today it's sheer hatred
up two touchdowns at home against a team that just got blown out by Missouri and South Carolina, and they dug deep and found a way to give it away
my sincere hope is that they miss the playoffs completely
Absolutely disgusting
Put a $5 spot on either team to win World Series: Cleveland or Tampa Bay. Looking for the upsetter of LA to be upset.

buena suerte to all today
-8250.61
This BYU bet pissed me off, they had 230 first half yards so thinking 375 yards would be a safe bet especially at plus money
Opening kick to the second half and they fumble the kick of course and finish with 360 total
Infuriating
That was easy.

Hit only 6/7 legs on my London parlay. Tuten only had 39 yards rushing.
I had two bets on Circa for Woody Marks to NOT score a touchdown today. He did not score.
I went to check my updated balance, and was short some money. How the heck do you PUSH a yes touchdown/ no touchdown bet?

A nifty way to ruin a good Sunday
Chiefs came through for me.

Bills came through for me.

These guys couldn't score, which is what I wanted.
