    And, they should probably buy it from ice queen.
    For now, all I know how to bet on is the broncos and poker, and for now, all i know how to do is lose at it.
    Its tuff, i dont wanna lose my life savings on something i have no clue about.
    What should i do.

    haha betting advice? you have an accnt at betjam already so thats a good start. im sure some can teach you something....im certain that no one would recommend more espn. you could follow someone here thats a good capper while trying to learn more about what makes that person a good capper. im not sure that there is an overnight lesson in how to win, but there is enough knowledge here to help you get started. you want to be in for the bowl games?

          when you deposit, see if you are eligible for a free play from betjm. then play with that because a loss with free money doesnt sting as badly as a loss with your money.




          for now, just read some about the games and see whos picks you like. you'll need to learn about line movement and all kinds of things before you want to go out and cap your own games. just find a game you're interested in and get some discussion going about it. base your play on what hits ya while you're reading.

                that is probably the best odds i have for now, i still probably need more advice, not that yours isnt good enough, it may be too good.
                But, on the other hand, i do feel like thats how i play poker.

                Last time i was at a tournament, my hand was 4 queens, and the chip leader paid me off big time, he had a full boat.
                Then, for the rest of the night, he folded every hand i played.
                I believe that had a lot to do with my demise.

                  ask mo for a play. He gets more upset when he loses for other people rather than himself.

                      haha true. losing for other people blows more than anything else.

                        Hey Mofome do you have any areas you can point me to that I can learn about line movements, etc? I started making lots of bets since September and have faired pretty well other then putting all my money on an underdog and losing it all last few minutes

                        Building up bank again but would also like to know some good info to analyze and check out

                          that link will show you the opening and current lines on any games. wagerline gives you the option to look at line movement of past games if you want to check out those. looking at consensus plays vs line movement is a tool a lot of people use. for instance, the public seems to be on the vols, but the line is moving towards wisc.

                            LOL, ICE ESPN wont help you with capping but maybe understanding more about certain sports. Im not sure how much you pay attention or watch but if I was you I would just find a couple good cappers at one of the forums and follow thm for a little bit and learn as you go. There are a bunch of talented people around here that are good at what they do

                                                so WHAT i want you to teach me is probably going to have to start from the beginning.
                                                So far i have an acct wit betjam, and i bet on i think two games, courtesy of mofome's explanation of what i should put in, where.
                                                So, i have no idea, pretty much.
                                                From all of these forums im pretty clear of the terms.
                                                But anything beyond that would be a lesson learned.
                                                I won both games i played, thanks mo.
                                                But after that i took out the money i deposited, kept the rest in, and lost it all on blackjack.
                                                after i doubled it once again.
                                                Now, i know teams, and i know my opinion of them, but mostly anything beyond that is

                                                  I definitely need a new suit My xmas suit was all messed up..

                                                  Anyway, I worked 5 years in the sportsbook business, just never ever play casino online. I think lots of sportsbook have the option to lock the casino option out of your settings, but still, just ignore the casino. Its a really good advise

                                                  Regarding sports, I could always give you small advises on what to bet on in European sports, like tennis (starting season now), soccer etc. Personally I find US sports a bit hard, I mean how can you take teams seriously that plays 80 games a year

                                                    Here is something that has worked for me all year. In college basketball, find teams that are winless on the road and are playing on the road and bet on the home team. I make one exception to this, I bet on the road team if the road team's spread is greater than +29. Yesterday I went 11-3 doing this, the day before 9-2. I was posting these lays in the NCAAB forum but the teenagers on here harass me so much I said phuck it. Here are the teams that qualify today (home teams playing winless road teams):

                                                      does that trend work for teams who were in tournaments and just happened to be listed as the road team?

                                                        Yes, but ESPN started listing tournament record instead of Away record for tournaments (I think). When I first started doing this I just went by whatever ESPN listed as the away team. I didn't realize some of those games were tournament games being played in neutral cities. LOL I guess I got lucky.

                                                            the way i see it the season was already over, but i was excited about the win still.
                                                            it of course had to be an ot win, but its still a good way to end it.
                                                            Do the liquor stores close on sundays in MD?
                                                            I'm trying to find reasons living there is better.
                                                            That would of course be one.


                                                            Thanks for all the advice, that helps a lot.
                                                            Anything does, but thats much appreciated.
