Thoughts?

so far im only on psu at -8.5 from those u like.

i love the whole rise of houston into the big leagues story but health of ward and catalon makes me pause. theyll play, but play hurt and if either of them is knocked out with an aggravation to those injuries i dont like there chances of covering on the road and if ward takes a solid hit on that shldr they may lose outright. bearcats of course know this too. too iffy for my blood. passing. better options on the board, dont u think ?

cal's home opener and texas untested on road thus far. cal could rise up to play real tough at home against a fav just like texas did to the irish. its plausible and giving 7.5 makes me wary, though not convinced about cal either.

gamecocks may b a decent play AT HOME, but in this case id rather wait to get -3 as it could be very close. this line sits at -3.5 now.
good luck!

I really think sc is a dead bet...there db secondary gave up way too much space in that msu game..and if nick fitzgerald can sling it around with ease, I imagine a real passing attack will eat them up.

Thanks for the feedback. I will probably see if SC will hit -3 to take that.

I actually had a great weekend... likely back to average now.

I added a bit to Houston at -7.5 -102 reduced juice plus some on the moneyline. Looked like I was in trouble but came through.

Tough week. Houston saved it from a total disaster.

Really expected a close game for OU-OSU.

JTrain · 09-19-16, 11:15 AM

Bets this week. Akron and UTSA ML bets are small (about 0.3 unit)

BigdaddyQH · 09-19-16, 11:45 AM

.03 of a unit? What kind of caca is that? What do you wager? $2.00 per game? Get serious. All you are doing is screwing around here. You are not a serious bettor are you?

I say bet what you can afford nothing wrong with bet size . most players are or should be small players

Hi, Bigdaddy. I don't know where you got .03. My post says 0.3.

Regardless, one of the points of using "units" instead of dollars, as I understand it, is to not have to reveal the dollar amount. 0.3u could be $1.00 or it could be $10,000.00. Using the unit designation means you have no way of knowing either way.

FWIW, I do not wager very much per game. And no, I'm not a serious bettor. I do it for fun (which isn't to say I don't want to win, of course).
