1st half bets are for suckers.....I have lost both weeks in NFL...and my games went 9-3-1

[shdw01]

last week I went 6-1 in actual games I bet...this week I went 3-2-1

I have been betting a lot of 1st halves....seems like my 1st halves are not winning but a majority of the games do.

Am I the only one frustrated by this? What makes it worse is I chase most of my losing halves but I somehow only pick the ones that don't come back.

I wanted colts last night but changed mind at last minute and took them 1h, got lucky I guess.

It can work both ways...

we must be on opposite sides, because I'm usually looking pretty damn smart at halftime. Those 2nd half turnovers / rallies are keeping me in the red. Albeit a short red, but red none the less

Try ingame wagering. I liked Philly last night but didn't want to settle for the 2.5 to 3 that were out there so I waited until Phil was +6.5 and +9.5 and hit it both times. I didn't need the points when the game was finally over but it was nice to have. A lot of big swings in the games lately. I did the same thing on Sunday nights game. It's not for everybody.

Live is the way if you have time and focus.
I had 1H and game under. 1H hit.
I got out of the game under as best I could when it was 20-20 at 54.5

I got Philly at 6.5 and 7. and moneyline at +530.

Didn't even start watching the game until 4 mins left in the 3rd.

I went 3-0 on my first half wagers Sunday.

I had a good week overall, but that might just be me. You might just have hit a speed bump. I'm sure it will come back for you.

I'm stopped doing halfimes after the buy vs houston game

I remember back in the old school days before offshore and pph, one of my locals was run by a big group of "doctors" (probably a ploy so we don't doubt the ability to pay).

Anyways, I would call in my 6-5 bets and if the bet ever got too big (I think $500 or $1000), then I had to split the bet up between half and game (i.e. if I bet $900 okay but once I hit $1000, it had to go $500 half and $500 game). Because of this it makes me think that by breaking it up my bet between half and game, I'm breaking up my chances to win
