I love the pic, but you can spot those fake a mile away! I prefer natural ones.

keep up the good work on your quest
I'm a sucker for the baseball caps as well.

Late to the thread but I like your approach. Getting to that $1000 goal is not that unreasonable when I look at the numbers. Good Luck.

Ok, I just got a chance to get on here and check some of the other line movements and I just saw that I never got my bet in on the GMU/JMU O 138! I guess I clicked out of the page before clicking "Continue"! Regardless of my bet I will still include the game in my record, I'm going to be PISSED if this game goes Over.
NCAABB - Seton Hall -6 - Risk 16.50 to win 15.00
NCAABB - Pittsburgh -16 - Risk 18.00 to win 15.00
NBA - Charlotte Bobcats -2 - Risk 19.50 to win 15.00

That will be all for me today guys! I'll be expecting the haters comments on my mistake of not getting the bet in on my points, especially if the game goes Under. It's expected and I'll welcome the comments, it's an honest mistake. GL on your plays today!

You will have ups and downs along the way. Just keep grinding away. If you work hard enough with your picks it will come. Just take your time and take your best pics for the day. And don't be afraid to not bet on a day where nothing feels right. You will get there.
Do your thing. And the good thing is the 6 points keep coming in every day. One thing I do is I put points in the book an bet with those and try to grow them. If I have enough for a couple of bets I don't touch the wallet. When I'm doing well my wallet grows. If its high I'm doing pretty good. Lately I haven't been doing too great. One thing I have been trying is to pick a big parlay and then one single bet. I try to make my single bet larger so if that wins I profit for the day no matter what the parlay does. I went 7 out of 8 last week. Had a couple other close calls. I'm going for the big win.

GL on getting that big win flexin, I'm horrible with parlays so that's why I don't take the chances on them.

Went 2-2 yesterday but I had a loss for the day since i didn't get my bet in on GMU/JMU Over.
Ok flexin, I'm taking your advice on a parlay, it's time to get fancy for tonight's NFL games!! Here we go....
Green Bay Packers -3 - Risk 20.30 to win 14.00
Jets/Steelers Over 38 - Risk 15.40 to win 14.00
3-Team Parlay - GB -3/Steelers -3/NY-Pitt Over 38 - Risk 14.00 to win 59.38
3-Team Teaser - GB +2.5/Steelers +1.5/NY-Pitt Over 32 - Risk 14.00 to win 25.20
I'm trying to get the bet on Steelers -3 but for some reason the SBR book is not letting the bet go through, will try again before kickoff.

Ok, I don't know why the SBR sportsbook isn't letting me place a bet on the Steelers -3 so I'm not including this play on my record (I edited my previous post).

Nice work. I only made one play today. I went with a parlay
PARLAY (3 TEAMS)
[9303] GREEN BAY -3½-105
[9306] PITTSBURGH -4½EV
[802] DENVER -450
5.00 / 18.86
18.86
Wish I would have put more on it but I didn't want to go crazy. I also didn't get a single bet in so I'm glad I won.
The only think I would have done different with your bets is made the parlays for less or the single bets for more so that if the parlays don't win you can still make a profit. I had a 2 or 3 days in a row that my parlays lost but my single bet hit. The problem was my win for the single bet was pretty much the same as my parlay bet. So I was down a half point or so after the 3 days. If I would have bet more on my single bet I still could have made a profit each day.
Once again. Nice work. I can't wait to get back up over 200 points. It moves more with the larger bets.

Thanks James, I hear what you're saying on betting the parlays for a smaller amount. I usually don't do the parlays but I was VERY confident in all the plays so I wasn't worried about it too much, and that's the ONLY reason why I did the parlay and teaser. It might be a long while before I even do another parlay or teaser, I like sticking to the straight bets. Glad to see you won on your parlay!

Hey soon2brich, I don't have a set time I post the plays but I usually get them out in the afternoon EST, plenty of time before the games start. I would suggest (if you haven't already done so) subscribing to the thread that way you can get alerts on your phone (if you have this capability) whenever I post something on here. Sorry if you've missed any of the plays!

Hey Spartan...are you going to just purchase $50 cash and go from there or try to build up your points more to get a higher denomination? Just curious on your plan of attack.

Hey cobeez, I'm going to try to earn enough points to be able to purchase $1k in sportsbook cash (not the free play), which is four $250 trade-in's.

What the hell?? Looks like I'll have to get to the 14k mark before Feb. 15th! If I got to that mark in 3 weeks I wouldn't even consider myself good, I would just be lucky as hell.
Thanks for the info, it will shake up my tracking just a bit but good info nonetheless!
