NO!

I have a personal rule where I try and never take a number that I could have had better earlier.

Strictly a discipline thing with me.

If I would have liked CONN, hopefully I would have been sharp enough to lay the -5.5 opening number.

Always wager on the best of the bet. If you miss out on the good number, back off. Their will be plenty of other chances. I am same as fish in that i try and play on the best line or pass.

The GENERAL has been one of my all-time favorite students.

Very attentive and doesnt take things with a grain of salt very often.

For doing so, he is reeping the rewards.

Ga, we do not know what the best number is yet. Currently it sits between 6 & 7.5. It may go 8 or it may drop to 5. If we could make these predictions on a regular basis, then we would be in the $$$$. As it sits now, you are getting the best of the bet with plus 7.5. Obviously if you wagered minus 3 originally, you have the best of the bet.

dont forget to check Skybook and grab an extra 1/2 point on the side you like as well if its the best nubmer out there. for or agianst the steam. if youjust miss the best number you can sneak back 1/2 point and still have the best of it if your pick was sharp.

I also use skybook anytime I can bring the line up to the best I see as long as its the same juice. I figure Id like to get them as much business and action I can (Im going to play the game somewhere) to encourage this promotion to always continue.

so if I see 8 1/2 at Grande and 8 at Skybook Ill play the 8 (making it 8 1/2 at Skybook). ITs a $500 limit but that takes care of me every time.

Great additional info trytrytry. The free half is a very strong option.

Playing the best numbers, using reduiced vig, adding the free half into your options, and using good money management is all apart of being a stronger gambler. Try and wager while sober too. That is a big bonus ;)

I got Navy +1.5.

Haven't a clue about who I like but figure it should be a close back and forth game, that is available on Tradesports at Navy -1.5. So playing in running I hope to make a small return and set up a middle for either team winning by 1.

Did the same last night and got 10% return on investment while needing a Marshall win by 7 not 8.

The importance here is to not get greedy, take the small profit as it becomes available and so avoid getting burned.

Game is also live at WSEX.

Care to have a contest? We both drink a case of beer and then we take a microphone and try to speak to a crowd. The one who talks the most sense wins.
