    my stupid vipsports fun

    Ok I rarely use vipsports and cashed in my points in their lousy rebated system for a large $4. hahaha. I am wondering how far I can take it but now I am not sure if I should let it ride again or split it up. What should I do? Yes I know this is pathetic change but it is all in fun.

    LOYALTY CASH $ 4.00

    04/19/2006 MLB Run In 1st- NO to Win Even(-125)
    $ 4.00 wagered to win $ 3.20 WIN

    04/20/2006 MLB 1st 5Inn-BALTIMORE to Win Even(-115)
    $ 7.20 wagered to win $ 6.26 PUSH

    04/21/2006 MLB BALTIMORE to Win Even(+153)
    $ 7.20 wagered to win $ 11.01 WIN

    04/22/2006 MLB SAN FRANCISCO to Win Even(+104)
    $ 18.22 wagered to win $ 18.94 WIN

    Ok I am sitting on a massive $37.17. Should I let it ride again for fun or should I start splitting it into 2 bets?

    Let it ride till you get to a couple of bills at least. And then bet it all on a juicy dog

    to get 2 bills I will need at least 3 more wins. That would be 6 wins in a row- sounds kinda hard. However, my fave movie is Let It Ride so it would fit. I cannot go against Randy since I have him on my sportsline fantasy team and I need a decent game from him to squeek out the win.

    I did not much like the baseball today so I let it ride on basketball. Yeah I know memphis has a nice defense but these are the playoffs.

    Point Total Over 174.5 (-110)
    MEMPHIS vs DALLAS

    04/23/2006 NBA Point Total Over 174.5(-110)
    MEMPHIS vs DALLAS $ 37.17 wagered to win $ 33.79 WIN

    Ok That is 4 wins in a row. Sitting at $70.96. Should I let it ride again or split it into 2 bets? Also, if I let it ride then how many times do I let it tide. I am not a great handicapper and 4 wins in a row is already stretching it.

    of the time.

    Cavs should win series. Cavs have better defense
    and in the playoffs defense neans more.

    ok I put 2/3 on the mets and 1/3 on arizona. Cain has been a huge disappointment and glavine has been lights out. The mets should give glavine some runs this time unlike the last game. Webb will probably break down as usual for arizona but not yet. He should be able to handle S.D.- at least I hope so. I was gonna put it all on the mets but even at nearly 10 e.s.t. vipsports seems to have a $50 limit lol lol.
