Nice Plays. I assumed you only did NCAA Football, so I didn't check in today . But thanks again for the over on the UNLV Nevada game, and I will definitely be back.

I was already thinking of the Giants before and when I saw you on them I took it. I had another little bet on the over but it was long before I saw u on the under.
So I cash a little less. I thought there was going to be over, most of all cause of Giants, but I watch the game and bot teams really r mediocre teams! Worst game I've ever seen! So many fumbles, the Chicago defense is a real crap they let the giants to kill 2 qb? I still can believe week ago this team beat the Packers
Anyway buddy looking alredy for the next week

This is from another thread:
Labouchere System
This system is also called the 'Cancellation' system. There are many variations. In its simplest form, A
player writes down a series or a set of numbers; say, 1 2 3 4 5 6. The series can be short or long and not
necessarily sequential such as 1 1 1 3 3 5 7. The choice of a particular series depends on the type of
game you want to apply it to and the odds of the bet. Each number represents the amount in units or chips
to bet. You bet the first and last of these numbers. In this example 1 and 6, which totals 7 units. If you
win, you cross out the two numbers and bet the next two 'ends' (the outside numbers). In this instance 2
and 5. If you win again you bet on the next two remaining numbers 3 and 4, and if you win that too, you
would have made a 'coup' or completed one game. Then you start all over again. If you lose, then you add
that one number to the end of the series. Say you lost your first bet of 7 units (1+ 6). Then you add number
7 to the end of the series to look like this: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 and your next bet would be 8 units (1+ 7). If
you won the first bet but lost the second 2 and 5, then the series of numbers would look like this: 2 3 4 5 7.
If you work it out, you will see that when the series is completed or when you make a 'coup', there is always
a profit. The negative side of this system is that you could end up betting large sums of money even if your
initial bet is small.
------------------------------
Instead of using units though, I use my actual wagering amount (ie. 100)
If you are using $100 as an avg wager, your labby would look more like this:
50 50 50 50 50 50
50 50 50 50 50 50
Because you add the 2 outside numbers and that would equal 100. Now if you lost it would look like this
50 50 50 50 50 50 100
next wager would be 150. if you lost:
50 50 50 50 50 50 100 150
next wager would be 200. If you follow this system and have a good system for picking games, eventually you will win and cancel the whole system. your next two wagers would be 200 and 150. if you hit them both:
xx xx 50 50 50 50 xx xx
50 50 50 50 50 50
your next wager would be 100. lets say you win next two wagers.
xx xx xx xx xx xx xx xx
50 50 50 50 50 50
You have now completed your first line (and made a profit of probably 250 when juice is taken into account.
complete the 2nd line the same way and your profit will be roughly 500.
Do it again next week. Clear both again. Do it the week after, clear both lines again..
After clearing the lines 3 times in a row then your bankroll will be large and you may be:
100 100 100 100 100 100
100 100 100 100 100 100
-----------
If you have a good system for picking games, you will eventually win. Occasionally you will have to stomach a big wager.
say you lose 4 straight:
50 50 50 50 50 50 100 150 200 250
your next 4 wagers would be 300, 250, 200, and 150.
may make you nervous. But this system prevents you from chasing too much.
it sure beats: "lose 50, bet 100, lose 100, bet 200, lose 200, bet 400, lose 400, bet 800."
Thats a lot riskier. Also with this you can split it and move some of the losses to the 2nd line. Say you lose 4 straight. you could do:
50 50 50 50 50 50 100 150
50 50 50 50 50 50 200 250
that way you save the bigger bets until you have cleared the first line and made some cash. you dont feel like you have to hit 4 big bets in a row to catch up.
hope this helped a bit.

Anyone is welcome to track and tail me. Just please dont blame me for losses. I do the best I can with my system.
I've been doing this for a couple years but recently made a thread about it. And yes, you will make money if you stick to the system and dont let emotions get in the way.
Too many people lose $300 and instantly bet $600 to try and win it back. Patience, picking your spots, and finding the best values are what it is about...

Chart looks like this starting over:
100 100 100 100 100 100
100 100 100 100 100 100
100 100 100 100 100 100
This is the 2nd round. I cleared 1st round. Once I clear round 2 I move to round 3. Once I clear the entire labby 3 times my labby will probably go to 200 instead of 100.
I'm still not sure if tonights game fits my system...
