Alright - its 2014, lets try tracking myself on here. For now I will just try and track the plays in here and see how I end up in 2014. Football is my main sport (as with many I know), play some hockey when the plays look good, and likely pepper in some hoops/baseball just when I want action but not nearly as many plays in hoops/bases.

BTP 2012 I went 41-30-3, +15.95 units
BTP 2013 I went 46-27-1, +22.24 units

Been gambling for about 17 years and have at least an idea what I think the books are doing. I have lost A LOT of money over the years but (I hope at least) I have learned a lot about money management and how to read games. I generally tend to keep my plays to 1-2 units. I have learned that no matter how much I like a game, things can still happen and it ends up losing, so if I like a game enough to play it, I will, but not for 10 units or anything like that. I likely won't give a ton of info on why I pick my plays due to time and quite honestly I pick mostly on experience, feel, and what I think the line is telling me. All plays listed will be for 1 unit unless explicitly stated otherwise.

So that said, first play of 2014 is on Wisky -1.5. Good luck on your plays today!!

Hit St. Louis, lost Philly - kissing cousin night - nothing to show for it. Still down 1.1 units in thread.

Rare 4 plays tonight on 2 games. I don't do this often but will go with:

Ok State ML -135
Ok State/Mizzou under 61.

I actually bet Ok St at +1, but still like them laying less than 3. Right now I see Ok St -2.5 -115 with a ML of -135. To be honest, I would likely lay the extra 20 cents juice (HATE laying extra juice normally) to get them at a pk - getting 2.5 points for 20 cents - tough to beat.

Clemson +3
Clemson/OSU under 70

Good luck whatever you end up doing tonight!!!

Brutal day yesterday. 41 points in Ok State 4q - oh well. 1-3 on the day, down 2.3 units, making me down 3.4 units on 2014.

3 Hockey plays tonight:

NY Islanders -123
Ottawa +126
Philly +120

Good luck whatever you do.
