    ive been pretty consistant. ups and downs but more ups. just have to wait for the right spot and nothing wrong with laying off a game.

    what are some of your beats so i can see what you've been betting out of curiousity?

    was around 60% on NCAA this year before the tournament started

    I'm about 2-11 since this started... including two ML parlays that would have won if not for Duke and Missouri

    the statistical advantages I used during the season simply don't work with this

    true, unfortunately for me that's the day where i bet the most

    as far as brackets go, i try to be creative every year... without realizing that taking the favorites every time would give me a better ratio. didn't think it would be so predictable this year apart from the big Duke and Missouri upsets

    I unloaded the opening day of the tourney and tripled my bankroll. Hit a huge ML parlay. There really weren't any games the 2nd day that i liked besides NC State over SDSU

    wish I had your restraint. i was up $200 the first day and then proceeded to lose $400 the next day. been making small $15-20 bets since then... hit Wisconsin ML (barely), lost USF, and probably will lose Cincy +1 tonight.

    so yeah: if you want to win then fade my Cincy pick

    Me too, lost $8,000 and went 0-10-1. I did a lot of 1st half bets. Didn't even plan on going big. Started w $500 bets. Now I'm in a world of sh*t. Like you, done until bases. But, I need to exercise money management FOR REAL

    0-10-1?? How is that even possible. Could have at least ML parlayed UNC and MSU today for something like 78 cents on the dollar.

    i didn't think a record like 1-9 or 0-10 was possible before this weekend, but boy was i proven wrong...

    i would've been better off asking a bum on the street for picks. make that a bum who never watched a game in his life

    I've had 2 other terrible runs like that in my life.... I also had a couple of great runs. I recently went like 14-1. Last summer, I went like 12-1. That doesn't matter now. Botttom line is I'm $8,000 down since Wed and it fuking sux. I'm looking for a condo and it really hurts. I deserve it though, when you have no money management it's inevitable. Best part is, I was going to load up on the Jazz ML at +625, to try and bail by myself out. Naturally, the Jazz won. I'm completely fuking disgusted

    Hang in there. Live betting has been great for me lately, get some really good lines if you strike at the right time

    I'm learning live betting is a good way to play this tournament. If you like something before the game just wait until you get 3 to 4 points better than your original bet. All these games having the live betting is awesome.

    ^aight i will

    but now just to update im 2-10 ( i hit xavier last night -4 ) and my other win was NC State ML (a live play at +250, but i only bet .5 unit on it b/c i had been losing so bad)

    so basically ive won 2 units lost 10...about -8 units give or take since the first tip of the big dance and ive been doing big dance only...no nit or cit

    i will say that i stopped doing much research at all since the start of the big dance and went with mostly all gut plays, i think that has been my problem. i was doing at LEAST 50% in regular season but now well you see the record. i will attribute it to lack of research and start reasearching my plays more...the thing was is that i thought all my plays were no brainers, guess thats where i went wrong, did have some bad beats mixed in too though

    I know. If i'm able to i always keep an eye on my bets and jump on a line to salvage it when its obvious its a loser. You can either make a few bucks or at least salvage some of your bet
