Content Post OT-ish: The gambling thread

This has an opening post with good commentary and information, which we definitely recommend reading.
Yeah that under was such a lock tonight in my book
I think one thing is for certain, we probably don’t hit that under if Mahomes plays the entire game. It looked like it was going to be high scoring until his injury halfway through the second quarter.

I actually had it under 50.5 on the adjusted total, which was somehow only -140. Unfortunately for me, I gave some back with the under on the baseball game.

That is true. But The Broncos from the start would have a hard time putting up 10. I had the U at 49 so KC could have only scored 38 or 39 for a push. My final score was 31-10 when I bet (Or what I had in my head)

THF is weird. Some so high scoring...other just dead. Almost a trap on those O/Us
 
Had Ohio state -27 and northwestern under 11.5 last night each to win 50.

didn’t like anything in these early games. But I think I got some 330 plays lined up. I’ll post after I lock
 
This is what I have open now all 2nd half bets except Florida. Had Clemson -14 1st half (Push), Auburn -10.5 1st half (win), Arkansa -21 1st half (loss).

Update: Took LSU -11 1st half and Duke ML +140

Update 2: took LSU 2nd half -8.5 and Min 2nd half -14

I loved Ohio St but went out with some friends last night and the game slipped my mind and I didn't place the bet.
 
So I was at the airport in Texas yesterday heading back to Boston. Having a few drinks at the bar. Figured it would be a good idea to place some good size bets on the NHL..CFB..and baseball. I wasn't landing until 1AM so I was either going to be extremely happy..or very upset. The thrill of not watching it all live and not knowing.....Looked at my account as soon as the wheels hit the ground....nothing hit.

And today has been abysmal.... My only hope is tomorrow or I am taking some time off. Jesus the last 2 days ****** me

I didn’t want to give all of those points (28) on the road, so I did a rare two team teaser bringing the total (Over 43) down 6.5 points. I paired it with Penn St-2.5, brought down from -9.

I don’t normally mess with college FB, but I liked the Penn St game and wanted to find another game to bring those points down. Ultimately, both games were closer than I would’ve liked.

Hoping that you have a better day tomorrow.
 
Did bad on prime time/later games. Can deal with losing the team total under on PSU. But losing a total of about 200 between utah TT over when the weather was terrible, wake forest TT over when Newman didn’t play, and Boise state Spread with the starting qb out is killer. Just a lot of bed bets. Didn’t do my research
 
The under in KC, AZ +3.5, Rams -3, Jax -4.5 all came through but larger plays on Det +2.5 and SF -9.5 tempered the winnings. With any luck Seattle -2.5 and NO +5 will reverse that.

Nice win. I can't bet Penn St games, unable to tell if I'm betting with my head or my heart. I coached a kid who is a Freshman RB there.

I’m riding that train with you, although my numbers are slightly different. SEA-3 and NO+4. I hit ARZ on the moneyline and had JAX-4. I also had the under in the KC game. It seems as though we’re sharing the same line of thinking lately.

Nice call on the AZ ML. I flirted hard with Miami +17, thinking Buff's D effectively makes a two score win a blowout and they'd be unlikely to risk the ball just to pile on. Yet when it came time to pull the trigger I just couldn't put money on f'n Miami. I took the NO number early because I thought it would slip if good word dropped on Kamarra, instead he is out. The Seattle number I waited on since I wasn't crazy about the 3. To me, at least, the late kickoff games this season have presented some less than attractive numbers.
 
Chargers....how...

I'm done gambling how does that happen...good god
 
I took a chance on Philly on the moneyline. Not a big wager. Laying low after a nice run.
 
124 to win 77 on Dallas ML hoping to middle
 
8 plays is a big NFL week for me. Five hits, 3 misses but once again going conservative on a couple of the winners and a shade larger than turned out to be advisable on a couple of the losers left me with a rather soft profit. Considering both the volume and amounts involved +$120 on the day is kind of disappointing. Not as disappointing as it could have been, so at least there's that
