    I should be crowned degenerate victor for maxing out bets in the first 2 of the first four games!

    I was tied up after 1 yesterday until late at night...so the late contest posting made me miss some of the EZ money in the first round...like UNCG over the Camels....

    So I think Jason should spot me 500 of his easy winnings...

    You were lucky. Remember the rules in Jason's first post in this thread -- only bet on NCAAT games. Not NIT, CBI, etc.

    Oh heck you're right...keeping these "first four" games straight versus NIT is a key to the first week here...

    I bet the Over (134) in the NCCU at NDSU game. In the nightcap, I took Arizona State (-1.5) over St. John's.

    The Play In games are in the books and I finished 4-0 (+2,000). Not shabby...

    I've already placed several bets on today's action including one I wish I had not made as I jumped on Syracuse to beat Baylor before learning Frank Howard was suspended. Oh well, perhaps the Orange will be motivated to play hard and secure the win without Howard. One can hope.

    So I'll take a push (win the o/u, lose ATS and -50) on the Louisville game.

    If yale can keep this close (down 9 now) and it goes to FTs, there is still hope for my Yale +7 and Over 158

    Good job by Yale to keep it close and beat the spread. 154 total points though. Another push for me.

    I'm 6-6, -300 now

    Mediocrity rules!

    It's uncanny. 7 games / 14 max bets now with the Auburn game in the books, and I am...wait for it....



    7-7, -350.

    I am the Master of Mediocrity!

    I'm a newcomer to the world of the degenerates, and there is no room for mediocrity. I am solidly in dead last, and I may be out the back door by the end of the day. (I realize the back door rule is suspended for the duration of the tournament, but it just gives a very clear picture of how I'm doing.)

    14 games

    14 wins
    14 losses

    14x50vig

    -700

    Pretty sure the end of this block of games has me headed to 16-16, -800


    But the leaders are in reach. Maybe I can go 8-0 tonight and pick up 4,000

    I don't even want to look - dadgum Villanova and St. Mary's stopped scoring...then Nova let them creep within 4 at the buzzer....line was 4.5. Dadgum you Nova.

    Why are you wasting time here when you could be wasting it by listening to the latest episode of the DBR Podcast?

    I accept the challenge.

    -5000 was too easy

    I just bet 500 FMU on Virginia (-22) to cover. After what happened last tournament, my thought process is Virginia will be motivated to jump all over Gardner Webb from the start and never let up.

    Additionally, I bet the O/U in the four games involving ACC Teams:

    1. Under (130) Virginia vs Gardner Webb
    2. Over (149) Duke vs NDSU
    3. Under (166) North Carolina vs Iona
    4. Over (126) Virginia Tech vs Saint Louis U.

    I really sucked yesterday so today has to be better. Right?

    I'm off to a good start today +1000 on Iowa/Cincy, which is good, because I will be taking -1100 on the Oklahoma / Miss debacle.
