How many of you bet TV games just to have action?

My guess is 35% of the posters here do.

BBD, my guess is a lot of the younger ones do. Over the years I had to decide whether I wanted to make $$ gambling or enjoy the action associated with it. I realized that betting on games for the sole purpose of them being on TV was not going to get me to the next echelon of sports gambling. I would say the last couple of years I have made VERY few bets because the games were televised. In my late teens, early twenties, if it was on a TV, God knows I had money on it.

I always bet the games played barefoot in gyms located at the end of dirt roads and get updates every 3 hours...

Only for big football and college basketball games

I don't think I've ever bet a game because of its television schedule.

Not b/c of tv but I def bet stuff just for action.

I usually bet a few just to watch even if I have no opinion.

i did when i 1st started, now if i do(cuz i want to see the game) it will b a very small play just to keep me interested in the game

I prefer when the game I bet on isn't televised.

I'd much rather just check the final score than watch my money lost on a moronic playcall, pick 6, kick return, bullshit pass interference call, etc etc.

Did I WIN or did I LOSE? I prefer black and white, the gray area is what makes you lose sleep.

Those are the games I watch to get on the other side of the inflated line movement. CFB had sometimes 6point total movement before game time.

as said above ive never bet a team simply cause there on tv, i can stream any game i want to watch so that thought dosent even cross my mind, maybe this is more keen to MNF people

[big joe 1212]

just on nights like tonight, just small change though

so my answer I guess is YES

[Immortality]

I can say I have done this before.

One of the reasons I got into betting soccer is the early in the day action from the European leagues.

[RumpledForeskin]

surprisingly very little, unless I am on a BIG TIME chase - watching bets on TV just doesn't cut it for me.......

[RumpledForeskin]

I don't always see my handicapping flaws if I just watch it on the ticker, lol.

[Chi_archie]

I do... i'm a rec gambler..... one thing I very rarely do is watch games on the internet constantly...
