Regul8er's Bowl Thread

Regul8er · 12-20-08, 06:34 PM

1-1 thus far with South Florida still pending.
I just locked up BYU +3.5 (RISK $83 to WIN $75)

Why I liked BYU?? 10 win team, explosive offense and very comfrotable playing at the Las Vegas Bowl. I figure the crazy Vegas atmosphere will effect Arizona boys more then BYU. I'm assuming all the bells and whistles are frowned upon within the Mormon faith.

Troy Trojans (RISK $83 to WIN $75)

I got Troy in 2 different wagers, ML and +2.5. GLuck regul8er.

The fix is ON and I'm OUT.
I feel like Ive been doing a fantastic job capping games, and seem to lose on really bonehead plays or awful officiating.

I've been contemplating for a while now, and I'm quitting cold turkey!
Originally I thought there was some money to be won gambling on sports games, but I've come to the realization that there isn't.

I'm completely on Nicky Santoro's side, 99.9% of bettors lose long term, and I don't want to be another number. I've only lost about $1,000 over the past year, so its not a huge deal. But I could see it getting worse as I get more sucked in, begin chasing and so on.

I know I haven't been a regular around here, but its been fun guys.
Best of luck in the future!

Are you sating you're done betting? You're 2-2 in your bowl games...still a long way to go...I say don't play games you don't have a strong feel on. I went 3-0 this last weekend but I'm not playing another game until Saturday, and I'm only on one. Keep with it, I remember you had a nice run last year in CBB. Maybe that's your game. Think about it is what I'm saying. Hate to lose a good capper over one bad run.

Regul8er · 12-23-08, 03:24 PM

Thanks for the kind words guys.
I understand I'm going to look like a complete idiot but I had deposited at rebatewager, and just realized that I could apply for 25% back on my losses.
I turned my $63 into $180, so I'm alive for a few more wagers. If I lose out this time, I'm done, can't afford to give any more money away. And whats the point in getting a $63 payout, haha!
Wish me luck boys, I need it.

Earlier I locked in TCU Horned Frogs (RISK $87 to WIN $75).

Not great odds at -115, but I'm confident in TCU. Boise hasn't seen a defense of this calibre in the WAC. And there never the same away from that awful Blue Turf. Should be a good game.

Regul8er · 12-24-08, 12:33 PM

Now Im officially out...haha!
Its been alot of fun, maybe come back around March. Money is way too tight right now, and I literally just cant afford to gamble. Too bad cuz my favourite bowl games were just around the corner. Oh well, best of luck guys, thanks for the support

Yeah, I wasn't trying to make fun of him or anything...I just thought it fit. Regul8r had a good run in CBB last year, and I'll miss tailing some of his plays.
