After some hassle yesterday I finally got some funds on my 5 dimes account, $100 to be exact. I'm just a broke college kid who likes football and money so I figured why not see what happens.
Here are some plays I've made so far...some were impulse buys, I was a little to excited at first.

Totals: $31.35 $232.52
So any advice based on what I've already done(should have done different etc..), and should I just stop now and keep the 68 for later weeks, or make a few more bets?
I was thinking I should probably place some more $10 straight up bets and be done for the week?
Could you give more detail as to what exactly was wrong with some of the plays above?
Also I just made one last 4 team parlay:
$4.00 $27.67 Pending 4 Team Parlay
Pending 10/22/11 12:20pm College Football 323 Arkansas -11½ -190* vs Mississippi
Pending 10/22/11 12:00pm College Football 353 Oklahoma State -6½ -120* vs Missouri
Pending 10/22/11 8:00pm College Football 365 Texas Tech +31½ -170* vs Oklahoma
Pending 10/22/11 8:00pm College Football 389 Wisconsin -6½ -128* vs Michigan State
I am done with parlays now.. So any more advice as to more straight ups and if so what amounts 5-10?
Lol @ BigAl. yea man if youre just starting out, you shouldnt be making 8 game parlays. you would probably have a better chance of getting something back by just donating to your local charity because you pretty much just gave your bookie $32. You should buy a half point when taking -7 spreads to eliminate push and i would have bought arkansas down to 13.5
Chill with the parlays and find one game you really like. If you have to do a parlay you should limit to one per week for now. The odds of winning are too slim to risk 40% of your roll on them.
Ok made made two more plays:
$22.00 $20.00 Pending 10/22/11 12:20pm College Football 323 Arkansas -15½ -110* vs Mississippi
$25.60 $20.00 Pending 10/22/11 8:00pm College Football 389 Wisconsin -6½ -128* vs Michigan State
This leaves me with $17.05 left, thinking about saving it till next week if all goes wrong here, which from the feedback seems likely lol.
