Chaney's on his way to my house to watch all the tourney games tomorrow... what do you need?

 

[jaypaw]

I just havent heard from him in a long time and it was nice to have him around...

tell him to chime in every once and a while.

Who are you kg21?

 

[kg21sm3]

Just a buddy of his from college. I do all my gambling through his local now as well.

He turned me on to this site a while back - I just lurk and do research rather than posting.

 

[jaypaw]

is he gonna post?

Jaypaw,

What's going on, buddy? Hope the year has been treating you well. I've been mostly hovering around without posting, much like kg.

You still playing those 4-team, 10-point teasers?

 

[jaypaw]

I was a lot early on but I've been keeping better track of my record breakdown which has promted me to stop playing them so much.

Its amazing how good recordkeeping makes you realize what you are doing wrong let me post my record - you'll be amazed at how much better im doing ATS as compared to teasers, parlays and other BS bets...

 

[chaneykn]

So I've been told by many...from what I've learned, the Teaser is the crappiest bet in the history. But they were still kinda fun, weren't they?

Glad to hear you're doing well ATS...that's what it's all about.

See how the 4 teamers just arent worth it?

under 50% doesnt cut it at -120

My ATS picks are almost 63%, and buying points I'm almost 68% (which is still below break even)

not to mention how far below break even I am on the other ones...


The moral of the story for me is just bet ATS - and in the rare circumstance where buying some points is most efficient (which again is rare).

For a while I'll be able to do well in the 4 teamers but over time i'm finally learning my lesson that they arent worth it.



106wins-87losses on the season
(51 for 81 ATS)
(27 for 40 buying points (-170)(4 of these wins were at -184 at pinny))
(11 for 23 on the 4 team 10 pt teasers [payout -120])
(12 for 27 - multiple team ML parlays and other teasers [winners of -235, -150, -130, -163, +150, +290, +350, +180, and +122])
(8 for 21 on the ML: wins of -236, -266, -236, -500, -260, -180, and -235, -450)

How have you been doing this season?

 

[jaypaw]

just out of curiousity I wonder where id be at if I had bet every buy 3pt bet and every 4 team tease bet ATS...
