Betting on Sports

Seems silly and very wrong.

I could be misremembering, but I think the reasoning was that, since Vegas has gotten so good at setting their lines, there is something something more value in getting more points since there’s always a chance the favorite can still lose a close game or something. I’m pretty sure the one making the claim didn’t show his work. I think I read it in a side bar on r/sportsbook someplace. I’ve not tested it. In fact I’ve been two teasers this year (lol sample size) and teasing the dog up was bad for me while teasing the fave was good so /shrug.

Like if Vegas has it down wrt setting lines it seems the logic should work both ways iyam, but I’ve done no math to test it.

Someone keeps banging NYG 1Q up to +245 and I keep taking it because it’s arbable everywhere, so now I have a bunch of money on the NY fucking Giants vs Tom Brady. Should probably lay some off but I’m greedy.

If my bets tomorrow are as hot as my football bets this week, we will all be very happy.

I wish foxbet did politics, would like to have this powder live for tomorrow.

Well, they have WAY off market lines again for TNF, so guess I’m taking a bunch of SF +8.5 (-118) and SF +6.5(+120) even though I hate the Niners and think they will get destroyed.

Yeah something seems off on the spread. Trying to decide which end of the o/u I want.

SF is playing their practice squad at the skill positions. I guess we’ll see if the Shanahan scheme can plug in literally anyone.

Bet against both my football teams this week and lost. Officially have no money on Bovada until they pay me for Biden.

So I bet Clemson -5 and it immediately drops to -4 WTF???

Both of my two-team parlay teams (USC -12, Memphis -17.5) won their games by 1 point.

KC minus whatever
Over 55 Sea @ Buff

I decided to do an early game teaser, got the Ravens +7 and Houston -1

Josh Allen and Russell Wilson both 250+ pass yds +125

They destroyed my fav prop, DK 75+yds and a TD down to +140. Not betting it this week after pounding it at +175 - +200 all season.

Where you find that Russ/Josh prop? I love it

Wish they would have let me bet more on it.

So of these two I only bet the KC game, of course

Sea Buff is way way over fmlfmlfml I have no idea why but I didn’t pull the trigger

Hit my two team teaser, barely, thanks to Jax missing a 2-pt conversion that would have tied their game late

I’m 3 for 4 on these now, picking total TD overs for four teams. Have just been looking for good matchups with a line .5 or 1 TD lower than I think it should be at. Pretty satisfying.
