Well I opened an account on Bodog just to start betting on the World cup but I havent been soo lucky. I started with a couple straight bets but since i dont have alot to play with right now i wasnt winning much. I decided to take a step up to the parlays I won my first one then lost my next 2. Im kind of stuck at that stage where you dont want to lose the rest of your money so you dont know what to play and your money just sits in the account haha. Any suggestions? Also, my intentions were to only play the World Cup but now that I'm getting more and more into this im starting to love it. Even the SBR forums. Minus the clashing I had with DSI (my father and his friend previously owned and operated, apparently upper management had a grudge against him and would not allow me to open an account due to "upper management decision" with absolutely no explanation).

well first off, if you don't mind me asking how much do you have in the account?

Not to embarrass myself, but it's in the double digits

try baseball underdogs. since everybody loses betting baseball favorites, baseball underdog straight bets and 2 team parlays are the way to go.

That's fine nothing to be embarrassed about, everyone has their limits. Not that I want you to tail me but here is what I played in MLB today:

I also like USA OVER 2.5.

LOL! I've noticed that too, the yankees only win when I dont bet on them. Thanks for the help guys! I think I'll try my luck with USA + ENG (moneyline for both) parlay. Maybe GER + SER but thats a little shakey.

stay away from that foolish soccer nonsense. not a real sport anyway. unhandicappable. we should nuke whatever country wins the world cup to teach them a lesson.
