I_WILL_WIN · 05-31-12, 08:13 AM

I_WILL_WIN · 05-31-12, 08:19 AM

$5/$60

BOS/HOU/LAD/LAD-MIL over 6.5

Good Luck

fergie's balls · 05-31-12, 09:25 AM

Smutbucket · 05-31-12, 09:56 AM

I just realized there was only 4 games today.....**** dat shit......get em tmrw.......

ridims · 05-31-12, 10:05 AM

cash out. buy a slice of pizza

jbart28 · 05-31-12, 10:43 AM

You could do OKC, Red Sox over 9, Brewers and over.

That will win you the money

Smutbucket · 05-31-12, 11:00 AM

jbart I will keep those games in mind but Im gonna hold off till tmrw or bump thread back up to top....just wouldnt make sense doing it today with only 3 games....plus my money tied up till end of next week so longer I can make this $5 last the better.....

iQon · 05-31-12, 11:14 AM

5-6 leg parlay? You're on a coldstreak but think you can go 5 for 5?

Pick one game and play it straight up. No such thing as a bailout in sports gambling.

Smutbucket · 05-31-12, 11:26 AM

its $5. yes I think I can hit a 5-6 team parlay. I was 1 off from a 6 teamer and 4 teamer just yesterday..

not to mention all the ones I hit in the past....actually in first month of baseball I implemented this exact concecpt and hit a 6 teamer with my last $5 in my acct (although I also reloaded that same day but I put parlay in then went to bank to reload) but parlay hit anyway so If I just trusted my parlay I wouldnt have had to reload.

plus, I may be cold, but Im not going to be making all my picks for it, Im going to take my trusted friends at sbr's picks for atleast half of the parlay....

remeedella · 05-31-12, 11:33 AM

colorado winning, over 10, maybe over 9 boston, boston ml (slight maybe) , milwaukee ml or RL MAYBE over 6.5 or 7, add LOS kings for saturday in it too... See, I've been wrong before but someones paying someone and this is completely fukkin rigged and scammed if this doesn't hit, besides the maybes I put

Smutbucket · 05-31-12, 12:12 PM

post your picks today for testing. tmrw is the real deal.

Lad, Lad ov, and Det

Ghenghis Kahn · 05-31-12, 12:48 PM

kid making $5 parlays acting like he knows the importance of line movement or lack thereof. tsk, tsk, tsk...

Smutbucket · 05-31-12, 01:25 PM

another person with huge faith in line movement.....whatya know...

you guys just keep coming out of the wood works yet you continue in their pathetic attempt to attack my knowledge of gambling based on the fact that I dont use line movement in my capping.....you would think all these people have stock in line movement or something?

yes I dont beleive line movement has a direct outcome on game....but im just insane like that.....

and funny thing is its always people who have been part of SBR for less than 6 months....go figure....

NardVa · 05-31-12, 01:48 PM

I say be patient and you will get your money back. Just chip away and get a little at a time. Instead of doing a 6 play parlay do a 2 play parlay. I say do Red Sox ML and Thunder ML in a parlay. Get the taste of wining back and build up your bank roll 1 small win at a time. A lot of people lose their money and make the mistake of trying to get it all back on a few bets or a few days. Just be patient.

Dclan86 · 05-31-12, 01:53 PM

Yea the picks around here recently, including my own, have been awful. We have really gotten screwed on a lot of games recently, especially baseball. Baseball is so early in the season that it can be hard to pick sure winners. I too lost pretty decently last night. I am going to try to find a strong winner tonight so anyone who has any ideas where to start please share. I am going to find one tonight one way or another.

Smutbucket · 05-31-12, 01:53 PM

money isnt really a problem. I have money saved up in other investments, just cant access it until next week. that being said the more I look at games today the more I like the red sox and thunder....lol....might just take that in a 2 teamer today and then spread that into 2-3 parlays tmrw.....

I literally dont "expect" to win my money back this way, and have done this more for fun more than anything....just kinda looking to leisurely take some games this weekend with small chance of getting a nice lil start in my acct....come next week I will return to betting 1-3 games a day, straight bets, chipping away, the right way,

thanks nardva for the advice. my biggest problem in gambling Ive realized is patience.....

Dclan86 · 05-31-12, 01:55 PM

Yea why does line movement really matter that much? All that tells you is basically who the public is backing, so what. The public is wrong 50% of the time. I don't pay that much attention to line movement, I do monitor it and take it into consideration but it doesn't way the heavily on my final decision.

I'm like you I don't bet based on the line movement. I like to go with who is better or playing better. Depending on the sport I may pick a team because I like the matchup or because I have a gut feeling. I say do what works for you.

Yea that is a pretty good play, Dodgers have been ******* horrible at hitting recently, stranding base runners, you probably have it on that one. However I am done with the Dodgers for now, they pissed me off last night, dirty rooster suckers!

The theory behind line movement is the books try to balance their books and even out their money and its not neccessarily the % of public but the amount of $ that effects line movement.....and theres no way to really know how much $ is on any game so thats why I put even less faith in line movement than the average person on these forums....
but people can make guesses on how much money is on what line and interpt line movement in their own way and believe that it effects the outcome of a game...
im strictly a numbers person. DIRECT INGAME EFFECTS.

Smutbucket · 05-31-12, 02:14 PM

Also, I think a big part of my "beliefs" in line movement (or lack their of) are due to my understanding of other markets like futures and commodities markets. This isnt something I love to dig deep into or have a deep understanding of I was just blessed in have a couple family members who trades futures on commodity markets for a living. Npw the president of the US will tell the nation that the price of oil has risen because of speculative trading, yet this an impossibility. Futures markets are based on things like countless things like weather/supply/demand/laws/regulations but no amount of "bets" on what the "future price of commodity A" will be in "x amount of time" will not effect the price of the commodity. Simply because that doesnt effect the "supplier" production costs in any way wether or not the market predicts the "commodity" will go up or down. My theory is that placing bets on a sporting event is similar to this. But Im a terrible capper on a week long losing streak so take my advice for what its worth.

In corrupt markets its possible but I believe that the sports gambling world is mostly legitimate competiive athletes with a sprinkle of corruption thruout history

and my family members would make fun of me if I ever brought up a theory like " im placing a bet on this team because the lines moving in this direction yet this website over here says 70% of public is on the other side" so ....now all the line movement aficionados can chime in now....
