Using BoDog.ca to try and go PRO

That's starting a little on the short stacked side. But certainly possible with a little luck. Hope you pull it off. Good picking!

Jayvegas420 · 05-09-12, 12:06 PM

Thanks.
Inevitably, I will be picking the games I want to pick. Whether my rationale is flawed or if I'm made fun of, I'm going to handicap the plays i make.
I am hoping to improve what has always been, IMO the worst gambling habit I have. Money Management.
For example, I am giving myself 13 days & starting with $25. Should I start with a two game parlay for 50% of the BR? Should I lay 100% of the BR on one play? I'm sure the consensus here will be that, I still adhere to a lower % of BR until ROI% increases, thus increasing % of stake per play.
I feel like betting 5x $5 parlays but, I know I'm just giving it away in the long run, if I do that.
Should I bet half the account on one play per night & hope if I lose, I lose early then catch a heater 7-8 nights in?
If I get drunk I can lose it all in one game. Maybe if I can find a money management system I like & can adjust to, I'll profit more quickly when I handicap at 65%-68%.

I don't know. That's the kind of advice I need if I want to move on & enjoy some of the advantages of Pro Status.

I'm not impoverished
but I can only try this 2 times, 3 times max this month.

Been reading a lot of negative threads about Bodog &/or Bovada so, i was able to get permission from my father to use his account at 365.
I am leaning towards a two game Parlay Washington-Washington.
I am thinking $12.50

Jayvegas420 · 05-10-12, 06:06 PM

With little to no feedback as far as money management was concerned I decided I would wager 1/2 the BR each play.
With no feed back on picks tonight I went with what I thought were overwhelming board wide picks.
jillmark
biffT
waterweight
bigjah
love the action
dexter

They are all on a long shot, surprise, surprise.
These people can't be wrong 100% of the time so I am on The Nationals as well!

JWCash & Zoo Youk are both on the Caps.
JJGold stayed away from this game so, how can I go wrong?

If The Caps get scored on 1st, I'm betting last 1/4 of the account on the Rangers -1.5 in play.

Maybe not, Rangers goal in the 1st minute.

If I get the under I am waging $20.95 on the second half.
leaning towards the over if its around 94.5 or maybe the CLips if they are +3 or +4 and not down by double digits.

Jayvegas420 · 05-13-12, 01:35 PM

Wasn't ready to pull the trigger on the 1nd 1/2.
Big money here!
There's a prop I like in the Heat game.

It's -115 now.

+100% profit after 2 days going into the late game could help the cause.

Your comments are very appreciated

Nearly every puck poster at SBR is on the under or The Kings.
This includes:
Miser
Puck it
My Balogna
Shackfu99
Shantystar
&
waterweight

Which play should I fade? which handle should I tail?

Jayvegas420 · 05-13-12, 06:17 PM

both?

PHX & OVER??

Jayvegas420 · 05-13-12, 06:24 PM

These are small bets that pay 50 to 1 & 66 to 1

I didn't think the Angels were worth taking as road dogs unless I took them by 2 runs. I like when the away team needs to be up or the opponent doesnt bat in the ninth.
