    Im locked and LOADED today!!

    Gonna do something a little different today,..Starting with $50 bucks,..Im gonna play 1 play,..the full $50,.for the 12pm-1pm games,..If I win,..I will double up,..and go for the 4pm games,..If I win again,..Im gonna go triple up,..for either a 6pm or 7pm games,..and then,..and only then,..If I am still around,..I will lay it all on the late game tonight!!

    My rules:

    4 plays total.
    All straight wagers..
    Starting with $50 bucks,.
    Lay original amount AND winnings after each play...
    Play HAS to be over before laying next play.
    All plays HAVE TO BE from -130 to +120...


    Turning my original $50 into $347.87 +/-....

    I'll post the play after each game starts for those interested... Hopefully it will be a GREAT day..
    Any suggestions throughout the day will be very helpful.

    I have all the games laid out already,..but if anyone has some suggestions,..might be helpful..I'll definitely look into any plays thrown this way.

    Gonna be close,.but with all the games today its definitely possible. Just have to find each game, within each time slot and keep pushin once that game is over.
    Hopefully this works... Reminds me of ESPN streak for the cash, game.. but with REAL money,..AND Im only playing against myself with ALL the games available.. I see a much bigger advantage for myself..

    Gotta start somewhere,.

    See,.Ive been up and down this past year or so.. Making A LOT of dumb parlay bets.. I started to notice a trend in my parlays though.
    One team would lose in EVERY bet...
    Ok,..I have one main bet,..then I would just parlay with two other teams and do this maybe 6-10 times... Well,..the trend I noticed more often than not,.besides parlays being a terrible waste of money..was that my 1 or 2 MAIN bets,.That I REALLY liked I parlayed those with a couple other teams..Well,.those other teams would lose and my main bets I would lose as a result of the parlay and be screwed all the way. When originally I had A GREAT game going in my MAIN bets...
    So as a result of this,.and well..with age comes wisdom, I guess.. I'm sticking to a plan..
    I really have no doubt this will work.. Of course not long term,.because i'm putting 100% back into the next play..
    (That's just for today..)

    BUT!!
    Its a way to get me back to a more solid foundation. A.) Straight plays. (Staying away from dumb parlays) and B.)Focusing more attention to details of games. and C.) Eliminating potential risks by reducing number of plays.

    Solid!

    BUT.... if you lose any one of those game you will end up with zero. so if it's all or nothing, you might as well parlay all the games for a chance of more winnings. same result if you lose anyway, zero.

    Yes,..its just a little fun im having today,.. I wouldn't recommend this AT ALL!

    My point is...I'm trying to get more grounded again,..and this is a good way to start..
    With 143 games on the board..For me to find 4,.within each time slot is VERY hard...

    See on a normal day,..I would have already played.
    Hofstra +pts.
    St Johns +pts
    Nova -pts
    and probley either Duquesne or J.Mad to win..
    I would most likely, parlay the shit out of these,..and probably already start my Saturday off losing..

    If I get a just a LITTLE more grounded,..staying focused on a smaller selection of games,.with a real plan. Well then my friend,..Its back to sound sports gambling..

    Ive been ALL OVER that game since last night...Keep tripping myself up over the line movement though..Opened @ +1.5 now at +3,.some places they even had it at +3.5 like you said,... So,..I don't know..No reason AZ should be moving around like that..

    This game opened at -6,..went down to -5 at some places,..then closed at -6.5

    Virginia Tech -5 over Virginia
    $50-$41.67 = 91.67

    Zona is like 85% public, too. I think they probably win, but it's gonna be a buzzer beater....

    good luck. I don't see any differences between making a parlay bet and what you are doing.
