Bammmmmmmmmm!!!! Congratz Roag.

[RoagBettor]

Thanks guys! I knew I was way overdue, but it's nice to hit one again even though it's not huge. We'll hit a home run someday.

OK 1st WNBA play today (tailing CK and SM):

San Antonio -2.5 (bought 1/2 pt) -120
$50 to win $41.67

[oda11]

Wait, SA is -3.5 on your site? Or you bought one point to -1.5?

[RoagBettor]

Shit, I was looking at it too fast. It's 3 on BookF*cker, so I bought a 1/2 pt to -2.5 (-120).

Thanks for noticing that.

[oda11]

lol, np, gl

[RoagBettor]

WNBA lines are out for tomorrow, and the best bet I see is NY -3.5 over Chicago.

Booked for Sunday, 8/30/09:

NY Liberty -3.5 (-110)
$55 to win $50

[RoagBettor]

Winner! Thanks CK and SM!

I wanted the account over $200 today, and we stand at $300.12 with the NY game for tomorrow pending.

[RoagBettor]

OK one small play for tonight. 3 Team WNBA 1H Parlay:

Indiana -4.5
Phoenix -2.5
Seattle -2.5

$15.12 to win $97.40

[oda11]

If I were you I would go with Sac +4.5 1H

Don't they always keep games close then get blown out in the 2H? Just my 2 cents! Good luck.

[RoagBettor]

This is just a wild-ass guess for a 1H parlay, it could go either way on every game.

[RoagBettor]

I just doubled up the NY bet for tomorrow. I think this line will move to 4.5 or even 5. NY should win easily.

[RoagBettor]

Oh well, small parlay loses by 1/2 pt on the Fever.

I'm tailing CK and SM on the 2 team teaser for tonight, but I get 5 pts at Bookmaker.

So, 2 team/5 point teaser:

Connecticut +9.5
Atlanta +9.5

$55 to win $50

The account is at $285 with the NY game tomorrow (-3.5, $110 to win $100) and the teaser tonight ($55 to win $50) pending.

[RoagBettor]

OK, just for kicks, 4 Team WNBA 2H Parlay:

Conn/Pho over 93
Pho -2
Atl/Sea under 82
Atl +3

$10 to win $120.08

[RoagBettor]

Well, the teaser looked like a layup until the last couple of minutes when CT couldn't even make a layup.

The account is at $220 with the NY game pending. If that hits, I'm at $320 which is more than I expected this weekend.

[oda11]

The teaser hit

How did the 1H one go?

[RoagBettor]

The teaser didn't hit, Connecticut lost by 11 (the f'n beotches!).

1H and 2H parlays lost also.

[oda11]

URGH, I had the parlay also, thinking I got lucky withe the Sun losing by 9!!! Guess not... Get'em tomorrow Roag!

[Alpinestars7]

Roag have u ever actually done this before by turning that much money into 10k? just curious.......

[RoagBettor]

Roag have u ever actually done this before by turning that much money into 10k? just curious.......

Last Fall I turned about $600 into $6,000 (and blew it). Then I regrouped and reloaded with about $180 and turned it into 10K (and blew half). I blew a lot just being stupid after I got way up. Why? Greed. I started betting outrageous amounts and chasing losses.

Anyway, today we either go broke or get close to $400 in the account. I love the NY play so much that I'm pretty much all-in on it.

Today's plays:

#1: Straight Bet
NY Liberty -3.5, $210 to win $183.33 (I bought a hook on the last bet of the 3 I played for this)

#2: 5 Team Combo Parlay (MLB/WNBA)
Nats
Mets
Rays
Rangers
Liberty -2

$5 to win $550.29

#3: 10 Team "Crazy Roag" Combo Parlay:
Brewers
Giants
Rangers
Yankees -1.5
Rays +1.5
Liberty -2
Liberty/Sky under 148.5
Lynx +6
Sun/Sparks over 144
Sparks -2.5

$5 to win $1209.86
