Call me whatever you like, but I feel like an idiot. I went to throw down my wager on the KC OVER and I bet the under...confirmed it and everything.....was going to put down $100....so had to bet $200 to make up the difference....it is going to cost me the juice, which I hate of course....oh well, chalk that up to not paying enough attention.

Mostly ESPN for MLB and CBS for NHL and NFL.
For the ATP I have a small community that I am a part of, and we all exchange ideas. These are guys that I have known for years and a few of them are bigger tennis buffs than I (although I seem to have a hand up, when it comes to capping).
I also use this board....there are many good cappers out there and there are many people that are so poor they can actually help you.
The most important thing to remember, is this.....DO NOT do too much work, and try to take everything everyone else says with a grain of salt....if you are a smart guy, you will be able to CONVINCE yourself of anything....and that is NOT a good thing. I can convince myself of almost anything if I look at it long and hard.....in fact, many time I have talked myself out of the right decision and onto the wrong side simply because I looked at it too long. I am sure everyone has had that feeling, the longer you look at something the more unsure you are.
You need to look for advantages and then hop on those small edges and DO NOT think yourself broke.

Hopper, you know better than this. I do not respond to crappy one line sentences about `this game`and `that game`.
If I haven`t capped it, there is a reason there 99% of the time. SO, come on the thread and do your best to make a point for one side or the other and I will respond accordingly (as much as time permits anyway).
I have posted again and again about this.....if anyone hasn`t read through the thread there is SOOOO much good info here from SOOO many different contributors, it is well worth your time to spend a few hours and go back from the start of the thread.....then you will always be on point. Once you have done that I guarantee you will have learned a few things....I know I have!Comment -
OMG thank you!!!!!!!!
Ever since I switched laptops I have had that issue and even googled 'how do I correct this?' and never got a good answer. You are actually my hero.Comment -
Quick update, tennis is done for the day. Unfortunately Monfils decided to make sure a Franchman made the semi's in Nice and took Robin Haase apart, that accounted for two of our losses.
Record for the day so far:
4-2 +$292.50
Hopefully this rain delay in Pirate-Town doesn't affect this game....it should only speed it up once they get back on the field, these Cubs wanna get home!!
GL tonight everyone.Comment -
Sup D2D, just wondering if thats the girl that came out in the gigolos show on showtime, that shit was wildComment -
Small revision, it was 4-2 for +$302.50
Thanks to my watchdogs out there!! Wouldn't want to mke a mistake...lol. But seriously, I want to keep it clean (as always) so like I have been doing from the start, if you ever see a discrepancy please just PM me nd I will correct it immediately!Comment -
Dude what happened to your other avatar w/the Leafs? Cracked me up every time I looked at it. If that's not a sign of being a good sport, then I don't know what is.Comment -
D2D nice call on the Pirates under 9...thank you! I like your KC over 8.5 as well, how do you feel about KC ML?Comment -
I know some of you missed on the 7.5 o/u before the game, but i KNOW some of you managed to get the live line at 8.5 and in fact, one lucky guy got it at 10.....so congrats to all of those that managed to grab that. I don't want to sound like a know-it-all, but that was going under 8/10 and in fact I should have gone bigger on it than I went on the Pitts win (although both worked great). If I had been able to bet it live I would have been ALL over it.
2-0 start in MLB after a beautiful morning....heck even last night was a good night. Yes, yesterday am was a set back, but I hope you have all figured out that days like that are part of the process. If you go back just 7 short days we are up almost $3500, even INCLUDING that crappy morning.
Going to bring the dogs to Buntzen Lake for the next few hours....so I will be missing the start of all of the games. There may be one or two more plays before I leave, so keep your head up!!

Awesome with the pirates. I hit the under 7.5 and live 10. And I hit the ML and live -1.5.
Comment -
As always much appreciated with the picks. I think it was a glitch or something, because when pirates was up 4-0. i got the line -1.5 for 1.82 in odds. And right after I layed the bet it went down to 1.43 (I dont know what that is on american odds -182 maybe??)Comment -
great advice about not over thinking\analyzing sometimes d2d
just like in poker the saying goes " you think long, you think wrong"Last edited by MonkeyMoney; 05-23-13, 05:23 PM.Comment -
Lol, unfortunately I do not have weekdays off....worked like a dog all day and then gotta take a break! The KC game is not going well at all at this point....Blanton with his best performance of the year....ugh.
Glad I avoided the NHL as I would have gone Boston and the Hawks....but neither lean was strong enough, so I took my first NHL break in a long time....still looking at the Kings game for a small play, more for entertainment than anything....Comment -
A tiny play to make the game more interesting for me.

One more.....as you probabky know I already have Spurs +5 for $100, so this is being added to that wager. Also, the ML at +205 is WAY TOO HIGH. I am not going to go big on it because that is not the way I do things, but I also couldn't sit and look at +205 without putting something on it.
All the Spurs need is 1 win in every 3 games and you are PROFITABLE! There is NO WAY they don't win more than 1/3 if you play this game 100 times....
