I'm not going to pile on. Going to go e the OP a word of advise, a negative, or a minus sign if you will is never your friend, if flat bet. and lay -150 and lose you have to win 2 flats just to show a half unit profit. Foolish to lay what 4400 to win 1000 ?
Now you have to win 5 dime bets to break even.

You had the 4400, did you really need the 1000?
On in division rivalry game?
On a MNF game yet, where every Tom, Dick, and Harry and their puppy dogs and kitty cats had wagers on the Cowboys and Cowboy teasers.

Don't ever do that again.
Poor money management, terrible.

Shake it off, I wish you well, hope you recover this loss, and learned a lesson.

Peace

I don't think it's necessarily poor money management - one can carefully build up juiced plays, just tread carefully. Some people take more risk via playing vs spread, some take risk by teasing, and sometimes I like to bet a lot on a play my brain can't possibly comprehend losing.

Only negative is I won't have extra bankroll to throw on Royals; will wait for next NFL week.

If you bet on all favorites -300 and up this season, you would be 20-3(including cowboys) and up like 8 units still so you are right, just gotta tread carefully

Dont worry, Royals will lose anyways.

Hey.
This was my toughest loss of the season too.
Real tough when you almost always hedge a parlay and then have utmost confidence in a team to bring home your 4-5 team parlay (without hedging a cent) and they don't get the job done.
I only watched 4th Q abd OT but seemed Skins were very prepared and focused...just didn't expect Cowboys to lose of all the games this week in nfl.

[recon1]

If I didn't share my big play, I would be stewing silently. But at least it's a lot easier to laugh it off with y'all :-D

Good attitude, better luck next time.

Betting that kind of juice is a colossal waste of time.

No point in dropping big bucks for a measly return even if it is a safe bet.

Yes sir.
Thanks for being brave.
Sports betting is so tough to keep your head above water let alone make a profit.

Dallas ML -450 (reduced juice). Bet $2250 to win $500. Easy day !

"no juice if you win"

I'm also taking DAL -9.5 for $500. Likely that both wagers cancel each other out, but there is a chance that both win.

Highly doubt Colt McCoy engineers an upset this week. Romo and Murray are playing the best offense in the NFL which in turn makes for great defense by keeping the other team on the bench.

For easy money, take DAL ML. I like the under, but I'm not betting it. WAS may not score a lot, and if DAL controls the clock, Romo will simply hand the ball off while passing only when necessary.

Rough night man.

Denver was -800 against the Chiefs a few weeks back and almost lost the game.

Honestly, this post makes me feel a little bit better for you. The Royals are the wrong side and you would have given it all away anyway. Good luck next week in the NFL.

Parlay Seahawks, bengals and niners next week and get it all back.

I cant really fault the strategy of playing heavy ML favorites.

The top point spread favorite each week (at 5 dimes) is now 8-0 straight up in the NFL:

Week 1: Philly (-10) -500 (won 34-17)
Week 2: Denver (-13) -900 (won 31-24)
Week 3: NE (-13.5) -925 (won 16-9)
Week 4: SD (-11.5) -580 won (33-14)
Week 5: NO (-11.5) -570 won (37-31)
Week 6: Denver (-9.5) -430 won (31-17) - note Seattle was also (-9.5) but they were at home. Denver was heavier fav on road
Week 7: NE (-9.5) -475 won (27-25)
Week 8: Denver (-9.5) -400 won (35-21)

If you were to parlay these games and have a cut off point where you are happy with the return - then start over the following week you could make a nice dime.

If you just played these games ATS you'd be down.

I agree.
Do this in hockey and baseball alot.

Find the biggest favorite each night and bet them. Smart money makes money.

[Marigold HD]

I got buried tonight as well.

I was in the last 6% of a $110,000 survivor pool. Will lose weeks of sleep over tonight.

Tottally agree. These fuks on here don't understand that if u lay the juice, u can win by picking spots. I do I all the time, this is my first loss this year in nfl on moneyline bets

I am sure the, McD, that nobody was mocking you personally.

[stevenash]

But you better be right like 70 percent of the time. Are you that good?

Always said betting odds on ml favs is the way to the poorhouse

[HilltopTony]

As I said....WEIRD things happen in the NFL on a weekly basis. The outcome wasn't surprising. NFL is akin to the NBA when it comes to wagering!

Considering its week 8 and that's the first loss, yes. I make 1-2 bets a week on the ml

I say this respectfully, what kind of percentage did your bankroll take a hit tonight?

[mcdonae101]

about 4-5%

don't worry man

we've all bet more than we should have on a ML favorite that on paper looked unbeatable. if anyone here says they never have, they are full of it

most people here wish they had even half of the amount of money you lost to even wager with

none of them will see that amount in cash their whole life which is why they came out from under the bridge to make themselves feel better

back to the drawing board, just bet smaller amounts on sharper plays, you will be fine

keep your head up

[warbux]

My guys look here if you want good ML winners just take Oaklands schedule and ride it

Seahawks
Broncos
Chargers
Chief
Rams (Stay off this one this might be there first win)
49ers
Cheifs
Bills
Broncos

Thinking bout parlaying all this except rams with the points I wonder what they payout would be.
