    damn patty...missed that thread...0 - 4 stings and I wouldn't wish that on anyone...but I'm pretty sure we'll get a response from him saying he had 5 units on the side and only 1 on the ML...business as usual on SBR.

    I find that in the end, whether you split the bets and buy both or just take the spread with a whole unit, you end up about the same in the long run.

    But hitting the upset now and then feels good.

    You'll be lucky to see him back in the thread. He usually abandons ship pretty quick.. see Exhibit B:

    Leet is probably the biggest denerate there is, I honestly don't even think he wagers on these games, he just has some weird addiction to posting his picks daily in separate threads (never keeping a running record) and acting like he has some idea what he's talking about. You can tell by his "analysis" of the games that he doesn't even watch. He's fukkin weird.

    This was a long time ago, things were easier in general back then.

    In that case it worked just fine.

    You are making false assumptions that the move towards the team always points to the that team...this is wrong.
    Point taken. But, in that case, the line move on its own doesn't really mean anything, right? Other factors also have to be taken into account.

    That what I been trying to say!! Quite frankly if you wanna use it as a tool go for it, never can have enough! but I’d suggest it a minimal influence on your decision. Personally for me it’s only purpose is occasionally getting me off a game, it never tips me on to a play.

    Exactly.

    Different situations call for different conclusions.
