    Almost every sports gambler gets destroyed in general and it's not because there's too many games , it's because they bet too many games.

    Kind of like your posts , if I were to comb through the hundreds of posts you wrote the last day or two , I bet I could find one or two good ones.

    Also looking at statistics is one of the squarest things you could ever do to handicap

    I laugh every day at guys looking at stats and not looking at lines

    These games are all wild as hell. Parity reigns supreme now and nobody can make any shots. I have never been as uninterested in college hoops as this year.

    You got me there , line readers like lakerboy and twizzler are two of those few that destroy the books.

    I laugh at people that use information(line moves,public money,etc...) provided by sportsbooks to bet with sportsbooks. You are basically a marionette betting whichever way the book wants you to bet.

    I'm pretty sure you are a lost cause but trust me , the people that win use statistics and models based off statistics.

    Lot of money to be made taking dogs in opening weekend of the Madness. Many win outright and even more cover.

    conf tourneys are the best cause you got dogs playing for their lives playing against teams that already a shoe in to get in.. i cash more ml dogs during conf tourney than any other time... dont get me wrong i love the big dance but most years my percentage drops some compared to the reg season.. not like i dont ever win, i just think the lines are a lot tighter when the gms are narrowed and there way more incentive for books to be right with the increased action...

    Not yet, Jay.

    I'm pretty much an NBA man.

    I wish I would've followed Brooks. Under hit again, and this time easily. Nice hit, pal.
