Going back to 11/15/19, I wanted to put this one to rest, so Jason doesn't come arrest me and seize any of my future 'winnings'.
Turned out that Utah won by exactly 4, so it was a push, and I believe other than embarrassment for my stupidity, I am free from other punishment.
Whew, finally back in the plus column if only a measly 950 points. Well, let's see if I can close this thing out in a week to 10 days.
Brutal. Ok, I'm going for two non-ACC games (pretty thin on the ACC front these days) to lose tomorrow. Penn St. +1 vs Maryland (feel both nervous and dirty about this one) and Connecticut +2.5 vs Indiana. Really hoping that both come through, that's for sure. I've been on a pretty steep losing curve since picking that first non-ACC game!
You guys know a lot more about sports gambling than me. I'm in Vegas for the weekend and will probably place a few bets for fun. No big deal if I lose them all. Do any of you see any betting odds you like?
I'm thinking of betting UFC 245 as this looks like one of the best UFC cards in a long time. I'm thinking of maybe taking Usman -175; Nunes -280; Volkanovski +150; Moraes -200; Yan -475; and I'm not sure what to do with Geoff Neal -245 vs Mike Perry +205 (probably won't touch that one). You can also do things like Parlays: like Aldara and Yan bet $40 to make $80; Matt Brown & Max Holloway bet $50 to make $54; or Amanda Nunes and Moraes bet $50 to make $52.
I'm also pretty down on the Panthers. So I might take Seattle to cover -6.5
See any bets you like? Or any of mine above that you hate? No worries if you like something and it loses. I don't care - just here to have fun.
Why are you wasting time here when you could be wasting it by listening to the latest episode of the DBR Podcast?
Ha! I thought same thing and already won $200 on that bet. Got me back to up $70 Net after hitting a Green 00 when I bet on 2 rows of numbers on outside. Yes I know how stupid roulette is. But I was at a conference all week doing all 30 hours of CME I needed for the year, so I didn't have time to study my poker books which I always do before playing these guys out here. So no poker this trip. Just brainless stuff.
Multiple ACC teams in action today after a couple of dark days so I placed four bets first thing this morning.
Kentucky (-15) over Georgia Tech
Xavier (-5.5) over Wake Forest
Syracuse at Georgetown Under 147
UCLA at Notre Dame Over 138
I need to get a streak going hopefully it is a winning streak.

Okay. In keeping with trying to bet on all games on both O/U and ATS, I am all in today.
12 bets. If I don't break .500 for the day, I'll be out since it would take me beyond -5000.
Starting to regret picking Kentucky to cover against GA Tech.
I am toast.
