    Are You A Grinder Or A Big Hitter??
    I consider myself a grinder where as I bet the same amount every game and rarely bet a parlay or other exotic so not looking for the big payout. I think many guys here are big hitters. What are you?

        You know I'm a grinder JJ. Like you I just bet straight bets (probably the only straight thing I do) and the occasional teaser, always the same $25 units since I started. I also am a grinder in bed, much more so than a jackrabbit or a long thruster. I love to get balls deep and just grind away. What's your style in bed?

            betting the same amount on every game is a no no .. you are only costing yourself money by doing this.. the bigger the edge, the more you put on it.. this way, your ROI will be higher.

            if you bet a game that is -8.5 everywhere and you bet 100 on -8.5,then the next game, the line is -6.5 and you see a -5.5, you should NOT bet the same 100.. you should put more on that bet because you now have a 54% chance of winning that game and not 50%, so mathematically, you will make more money in the long haul by putting more on a bet that has a bigger edge..

                            I have turned into a big grinder. I play at least 4-6 games a day and for large sums.

                                Both. When I'm hot I become a big hitter. When I'm cold I'm a grinder. GL

                                  I grind until I see a great play then I go for the gusto...

                                  Uconn woman last 2 games I went very large. Cav's versus Boston yesterday I went very large. Gator football I went large every game because they covered every game but 1 (you were crazy if you didn't get rich off of them last year)

                                  Georgia versus Hawaii in the Sugar Bowl year before last... I bet 1/20 of the house, no chit. Biggest bet of my life.

                                      I like to grind, I do not want to get knocked out...I want to be able to keep betting and not take a chance and get broke early in the season

                                              I am the biggest grinder of losing money here, maybe if I become a big hitter instead my plays might win.
