That's a joke, right? Colorado is awful, and I mean awful! That game won't be close.

Love this idea, wish I wasn't so greedy so I could commit. You can make a fortune flat betting ML's in football.

Tell that to big ML players on the Pats, Packers or 9ers so far this year!

Not advocating this system, but 2 of the 3 games you mention were road favorites. Only the Patriots choked at home as a BIG favorite. I'd limit BIG favorites to home games. Just my 2 cents.

I love ASU thursday night , they should roll without a doubt imo, but -2200 ..no sir , we'll find the right one's -350 to -750 is the sweat spot I think ...Smitty ,One thing I look for in team (A) would be a crap run game,that against teams (B) with a great pass D's , doesn't leave much room to score for team (A), love those match up's especially when team(B) is a heavy favorite , its a blowout a lot of the time,keeping my eyes open for those in a big way ,but I know what you mean ? THE ROAD TO 10K CONTINUES

Are u doing only football, or other sports as well?

Could take forever if its only one sport, esp football =D

Riceboi · 10-09-12, 02:24 AM

I don't know if you follow or bet MMA at all but on Oct 13th (UFC) Anderson Silva is -1250. Pretty damn good chance of winning.

Lakers714 · 10-09-12, 03:47 AM

Pretty interesting what you're doing. Lost around 10k in Vegas about a month ago. No more casinos and black jack for me. I'm actually trying to do the same thing. Just not to 10k. I want like 3k and I'll be content. I started with $100, putting it on Reds RL tomorrow and looking for a couple heavy favs over the weekend. BOL to u, hope all goes well. No zeros or double zeros.

That's a lot of juice...don't get me wrong, Anderson Silva is very good, one of the best ever, but in contact sports (Boxing/MMA) anything can happen. It only takes one mistake and a guy can get KO'D or get your arm twisted off into a submission. I look for matches where guys are somewhat close in talent and i take the dog if the odds are good. For instance i took Bradley in the Bradley vs PAC fight...i got +350 Bradley, i figure Bradley is quick, he's got heart, anything can happen maybe he'll knock him out with a quick left. It was a shady decision but i'll take it....

$100 to $10k. How long did that take you?

BabyMatrix27 · 10-09-12, 06:46 AM

Sometimes chasing that last 1k to hit your 10K goal will cost you the 10K.. Goodluck!!

House · 10-09-12, 08:55 AM

Yes, but it will be exciting wont it Babymatrix ? Its house money, not stopping until we hit 10k, then we start over starting with 2k and making a run for 20k ...that will also be house money so I dont care if I lose it trying to get to 20k, its gonna be fun betting 10k -15k

if we get that far .....But one step at a time ..On the road to 10k

Ya I get that, but what I was saying is if he is playing with house money and betting those big favorites, I was thinking a loss would be digging into his own pocket besides the house money. Thats why I figure he is betting the whole thing everytime to risk and not a straight bet cause that could really cost him especially when you get into betting 5 or 6 k on a -500 favorite and lose.

House · 10-09-12, 10:16 AM

Not coming out of the pocket at all on this one guys, I won a little over 4k in NCAA this weekend, found mcduggleys thread and got it going on the NYG game , 1st bet.... just wanted to start with 1k and run for 10k instead of $100 -$1000 , its gonna get crazy the further we get ....

Stay positive peep's,

ON the Road to 10k

I'm cheering for this guy, but lets be honest. Once you win the money it no longer belongs to the house.

Riceboi · 10-09-12, 02:31 PM

what books are you guys using? A lot of books have limits on bets so I doubt you can do over 5k (if it gets to that).

House i dont post much but i have been following you and the other guy who is doing 100-1000, but i dont like this steelers play, first off its not -350 or less and also 90% has been on steelers spread and 91% on the moneyline, and the line hasnt budged at most places. Really hope this pulls through for you. BOL.

House · 10-11-12, 09:35 AM
