I'm down $1200 for the year which is a lot for me being a lowly underpaid tree surgeon. But I'm having a good week up $340. I would to have the other $860 back by the end of football Sunday. Should I bet $300 on a single team at 1 PM? And then put $560 on another single at 4 PM or 830. Or vice versa. Or should I mess around with a $200 2 teamer or a $150 3 teamer ? Some solid pics would be good as well . Thanks for all your help. There's a lot of sharp players on this board. Problem is I'm not one of them!! Earlier in the day I mentioned I like the Packers and the consensus is shooting me down so I'm gonna scrap that play
Thanks for the advice my friend. I'm An arborist so I gamble with my life every day climbing trees. Been playing The ponies since I was 18 years old. It turned me into degenerate spend a lot of time and don't win much money.actually that's an untruth I'm down about 80 K lifetime. Just missed the pick six though that would've paid 150,000 had to take it written down in the money in my pocket but figured I wouldn't win so didn't bet it. Been playing football for three years. Up 3500 the first year up 1600 the second year and this year I'm down about 1200. It's fun to watch the games and try and predict the future and compared to horses its only two teams compared to 10 horses. My book is an old-timer you can bet till Sunday morning you can bet money lines. But he doesn't move the line. What he makes it in the morning is where it stays. So if the prime time game starts moving I can get appointment have for free. Brilliant

You don't owe any money so what I can't figure out is why you would like all your losses back by the end of the week. DO NOT TRY TO GET YOUR LOSSES BACK IN ONE DAY. Help me understand why you would risk losing $300 and $560 on a single game. Being down $1200 is not a lot for $500 bettors, but you are not a $500 bettor so do not start now or there is a good chance you will wake up Monday morning mad at yourself for giving back your weekly winnings and then even more.
Sure, you might win and get it all back, but that's not the way you play. You have done OK the past three years, don't dig a bigger hole for yourself by betting too much in one day.
PS: Wish you were in Calif. I've got two big pine trees that the drought killed which need to come down.

Bilbo,
My recommendation is to VERY SELECTIVE on your plays. Play one play you feel is the very best on the day. If you win, you have won that day. If you lose, that's ok, move on to the next day. Play the same amount every game. If you follow these simple rules, you will find if you lose it is not total devastion, and when you win, you feel pretty good knowing you made some cash that day. BIG PICTURE.
Good luck to you!

Bilbo, this is a fun game to play today. I would have bet on NE Over for the reason: NE played 3 straights under and now coming home which they can score over 30 pts at home and to play w/ the team that they have their 1st lost of season,div. game, the game that they were up 20-10 at half and came apart in the heat of Miami. They revenge this game and if they win, they ll clinch the div. All factor could make this game a high scoring game. No matter if NE cover or not
