    parlays and teasers are a waste of money.

    I had cash on houston in that one too. brutal loss.

    eagles were the lock of the week tonight. much easier than the load I dropped on the jets...that game gave me 15 heart attacks. I think the jets suck...I hate betting on them

    after cashing in on the eagles and flyers tonight I decided to press my luck on some hoops.

    sweating out this golden state game...I've got GS -7. I also got into the college hoops season early with miami +7 at memphis.

    gambling is awesome

    you have to win both bets in order to win money though. parlays and teasers decrease your odds of winning. they are sucker bets

    nice work last night, but I would strongly recommend changing your strategy

    if you like 2 games that much just bet more on each game. that increases your chances of winning long term. I have a few gambling books I might have to lend you. I don't want to see you lose your fortune

    judging by this thread and ed's i think it's safe to say we both have a pretty good handle on what we're doing here dude...so do a few of the other's in ed's pool.

    keep on keeping on with what works for you. good luck.

    I posted my total from last saturday a few pages back.

    I am 2 billion times better at picking college games than I am at NFL (especially when I can't pick NFL totals...I play just as many, if not more totals than team bets)

    Seems like we are both doing well. Obviously I am strongly against exotic bets, but whatever works for you I guess.

    don't really like the game, but I will probably put a small bet on temple tonight.

    yeah i think i told you my buddies give me shit all the time about me making those kinds of plays. it's a constant joke. i usually end up ahead though. so whatever. it works.

    something like 68% of totals this year are overs in the nfl. hop on that train before the oddsmakers start bumping them up a few points. probably due to all the stupid new rules that are hampering defenses....

    So I am in this "YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE" SUICIDE POOL. It was $20 to enter and if you lose a game it's an extra $10 to rejoin. Right now the pool is at about $550. First place is about $400 and 2nd is $150 so far. We started with 19 people and right now there are 5 people left. One guys is still undefeated. I was until the The Cowgirls beat the Giants on Sunday. I'm debating on who to pick this SUnday.

    Atlanta over Rams
    Chargers over Broncos
    Eagles over Giants
    or maybe Bengals over Bills

    I'm leaning to one of the first two choices right now (most likely the Falcons). Who would you pick?
    8/28/98- Camden, NJ
    10/31/09- Philly
    5/21/10- NYC

    9/4/18- Boston, MA
    9/14/22- Camden, NJ
    9/7/24- Philly, PA
    9/9/24- Philly, PA
    Tres Mts.- 3/23/11- Philly. PA
    Eddie Vedder- 6/25/11- Philly, PA
    RNDM- 3/9/16- Philly, PA

    I'm one of 5 people left in mine. One strike and you're out. started with 140 people and it was $40 per entry.

    I'm leaning towards the chargers this week. I still have the steelers as well, but I don't trust them.
