    Lost every wager I made today
    I think I'm 0-7 or 0-8. Still have UCLA -5 and the over on the CHI/UTA game. Real good chance at going 0-10 on the day. Got great numbers on almost every single one of them, too.


    Happy Thanksgiving SBR.

        10 bets in one day? That is about two weeks for me. Hopefully your plays were very small.... GL this weekend G.

          Rough day Mr.J

          At least you can admit to having a bad day. Many posters on here are running 65% ya know.

          Regroup on a weak college basketball line this weekend.

            That's what I do. I try to follow smart money and get good numbers. I've been doing this with smaller market college games and have been pretty successful. The mistake I made today was betting a bunch of BCS schools - or higher profile games - which I have been strictly staying away from. (My strategy has been very successful with the NBA also. And the only play I made today was that over, which looks like the only game I have a real shot of winning.)

            I'm not upset or anything. I fully expect a correction by the time the weekend is over. In fact, this might be a correction for the past week I've had. It was a very good week until today.

              I know G's. You and I do things differently. These are all 1 unit wagers. No big deal. I'll make it up, just an incredibly unlucky day.

              I mean, tell me you wouldn't have been happy with Creighton +6.5 when they were up 65-60 late in the game? It's just been that kind of day.

                I followed JJ Golds advice from his video to not bet on Thanksgiving. JJ, said it showed you are a real degenerate to bet on this day and that we should be spending time with family. Problem is it would have been a nice day 4-1 overall for $0 dollars.

                  So wait, are you saying that not everyone has the same system?

                  That's f'ing crazy talk dude.

                            I'm not really an action junkie. I'll check the scores periodically, but rarely watch any games that I'm on. Like I said, just try to make smart wagers and let the chips fall...

                            Today I was traveling to my sister's house 3.5 hours. Then we had the dinner at her inlaw's. Tomorrow several of my other immediate family members will be here and we're doing it all over again at her house. It's a great 2 days. And I probably won't watch 2 hours of sports the entire time.

                              maybe you haven't been here long enough. The point is to do opposite of what jj says. That's his thing.

                                    Not if they are smart wagers. Obviously today I didn't make smart wagers for reasons explained above. I wager on NCAA hoops and football, NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, tennis and sometimes soccer. I typically go 6-4 or something like that. Of course some days it's in the 4-6 range, but there are more 6-4's than the other way around. Some days I only bet 1 or 2 games if that's all I can find.

                                    And every once in a blue moon I go 9-1 or 1-9. This is one of those bad days unfortunately.

                                        Already past it bro.

                                        LOL at UCLA though.

                                        And if I don't get at least 48 points in the 4th Q of the CHI/UTA game then it will be an 0-10 day. That's pretty impressive, if I do say so myself.

                                                    LOL. Good point.

                                                    The crazy thing is - believe it or not - I still managed a profitable week. I have a really good feeling about my NCAA picks this weekend now.

                                                    I actually lost my last two wagers from Wednesday (back end of a good day though). So that's 12 straight wagers lost.


                                                    I've got Tulsa -16 and Kent +3.5 tomorrow, fwiw. Can I lose 14 in a row??
