BEST PLAY OF THE DAY (R) 11/15/05
 

So overall I lose money betting sports

I've never really gotten into it, and I've probably wagered around $2000 and lost about $300 overall. It's always been for fun for me (keep this in mind if I ever make a pick).

So I withdrew all of my money from Pinnacle last week, but had $50 bonus in matchbook.com.

I had a typical NFL weekend and lost $15. So I bet $34 on the Eagles to cover and like they do this season, they blow the game in the last four minutes. But who are we kidding? I'm not saying I 'should have won' or anything.

But as the observant noticed, I still have $1 left. I will assume that $1 is the minimum bet for matchbook. If I reach $10,000 I will stop.

-----------------------------------------

FROM HERE UNTIL I LOSE MY MONEY I will bet the 'BEST PLAY OF THE DAY' as suggested by 2p2 forums.

I expect this to last until ... Wednesday. But if we can get it going, I will bet 10% of my roll, minimum $1, on the 'best play of the day', and see if the collective knowledge of 2p2 can turn this into a winner.

After thinkig about it, I fully expect this thread to go down in flames, quick.






So, there you have it. What is the best play for 11/15/05?
There is no room for error. I need a LOCK! [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img]

I wish I could do this with $5. I'd have a better chance.

If you're just doing this purely for fun, go ahead and burn the dollar [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

But if you really want a chance at something, I'd wait for the weekend and put together some sort of ridiculous 8+-team parlay on the NFL. Do they let you do $1 teasers? A 8-team or even 10-team teaser would be a slightly safer (but obviously less lucrative) option...

I like Miami of Ohio -10 quite a bit. If you get to ten grand, I want a cut.

This is a really good idea.

I don't think matchbook lets you do this though.

But I do have $70 bonus at sportsbook that I can't withdraw.

-So, every weekend I'll do an 8-10 team parlay for the lowest amount possible.

And tonight I'll start work on my matchbook $1.

So, I'll start a thread for my 8-10 team parlay of the week, which will run until I have $0 or hit one of them.



I'M STILL LOOKING FOR TONIGHTS STONE COLD LOCK! I NEED A GAME OF THE YEAR.

It will take me 83 straight wins at 0% juice to get over $10,000. Wow, that's not too long.

If I can get home in time tonight, since this was the only suggestion (well, there were two, but this was first) I'll bet it.

If not, and Ottawa plays later, I'll bet that.

This is going to be exciting. [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Well, you didn't provide a lock, so I have nothing else to go on. I'm not making my own deicions here. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Do you have a LOCK for any game/any sport tonight? (Matchbook doesn't do pointspreads in hockey)
