Making It Interesting (Sports Betting Thread)

I'm an idiot, but I can't resist...it's all house money at this point, and I guess at the rate I feel the need to bet on things, will be property of the house soon enough...

Bet 1:
Min -2.5 over Bos

Bet 2:
Min over Bos
Arz/NJ over 5
TB over Tor

Bet 3:
Min -1.5 over Bos
NJ over Arz
Phi over Buf
TB -1.5 over Tor

Bet 4:
Min/Bos over 5.5
Buf/Phi over 5.5
Cgy/Stl over 5.5
Wpg/Dal over 5.5
NJ over Arz
TB over Tor

3 out of 4....damn good. Are you doing your Scrooge McDuck impersonation in your basement?

Gold coins are solid and diving into a room full of them would cause great pain...

I didn't even realize, but that "Bet 3" there paid almost 29:1, doesn't seem like it should be worth all that much...

The only thing that didn't hit was the Cgy/Stl & Wpg/Dal over 5.5's...they both hit 5 on the dot...

Parlay that the 3 remaining games would go over 4.6. 5 to win 8 or so. Also bet habs to win/over 5 in this game/Rags-1.5 as a parlay.

Who is this goalie starting for boston?

I need to stop reading this thread. I'm getting the degenerate gambler itch in the worst way.

Postby **Craig** » Wed Oct 26, 2016 11:15 pm

Push on the havs game over 5 so instead of about 6.5:1 i got paid about 5:1. Push on the worst odds in the bet is the way to go. Tonight will be a nice profit.

I think I went Habs win, Habs/NYI over 5, Rangers win, Caps win...so I went to practice thinking I would be in pretty good shape...but nope, the Oilers are for real @meow ...clear of any team in Campbell Conference by three points here out of the gate...

Still not happening.

Oh, it's happening...

They have two nice wins and have had the home cooking to start the year.

Plus Talbot is playing roughly eleventy billion times better than he actually is.

MIMH's lunch money will be mine. Oh yes. It will be mine.

Allen robinson over 59.5

Nashville to win and nasville/la over 5.5

My last night NHL lost parlay:
Bos +1.5 vs. Det [win]
Mtl over Tor [win]
Col/Arz over 5.5 [loss, 5]
Wsh over Van [win]

NFL today, is it just me or is there a lot of high o/u totals today? I'm under city today...
Sea/NO under 50
NYJ/Cle under 45.5
Oak/TB under 49
NE over Buf

Postby **Craig** » Sun Oct 30, 2016 1:07 pm

At half I bet on cincy to win the second half. I don't like any games today.

Sea/NO seems like a decent bet to go over 50. NO defense is that bad.

Seahawks -1.5, over 50, jets/browns under 45.5

YouTube · Postby **mikey** » Sun Oct 30, 2016 1:16 pm

Yeah, you're right, NO defense is bad but I don't know, 50 is a lot...west coast team playing at 1 pm...blah blah blah...if it was 47 or something, I probably pass on it...but 50 caught my eye, so I'm gonna roll the dice...

Beyond the Jets/Browns **** fest (I also bet under 36.5 on that game on an alternate spread single), my other two unders are west teams playing at 1 pm, I always like that for a "slower" game...probably confirmation bias though...

This week,

ATL -3
Clev +4
NE -6
KC -2.5
Philly +4.5

Come on Clev

Clippers-17.5

Postby **Craig** » Tue Nov 01, 2016 10:18 am

Bam. Added those extra -5 to the standard spread and they won by 18.

YouTube · Postby **mikey** » Tue Nov 01, 2016 10:33 am

Nice.

I lost big this weekend. Mainly because I loaded up on the under on that Jets/Browns game which was like the highest scoring game of the week or whatever...

I must have made some tiny dent as I bet against that Asiago thing on Minnesota because he is really bad at football...any bet that involved him failing I took, so I imagine that salvaged a little of my losses...

Postby **Craig** » Tue Nov 01, 2016 10:42 am

Yesh were not talking about the seahawks. But i was heavy on the -1.5.

YouTube · Postby **mikey** » Tue Nov 01, 2016 11:11 am

Oh, I meant to make a joke about the very untalented Asiago and MIMH's fantasy team(s) but the opportunity passed...oh well...

Postby **Craig** » Tue Nov 01, 2016 11:13 am

I caught that but the jets/brown things gave me flash acks about the 4 bets i had involving sea -1.5.

Postby **Craig** » Tue Nov 01, 2016 8:00 pm

Edm -1.5
