Gambler Advice

[aajohn2000]

I suck at betting sports. So, I quit doing it awhile ago. NC just legalized sports gambling and is offering promotions to get started. My bet is that these two semifinal games tonight will set the record for the most combined point differential between in tournament history. In short, I think both UCONN and Purdue steamroll their opponents. Lay $100 on Purdue ok the early game and then let it all ride on UCONN in the later game plus take the bonus cash and lay it on UCONN. The only game that gives me some pause in laying the points in UCONN as I think Bama can do enough yo make it interesting and end around the line. Edey will simply be too much for NC State. Magical runner not, there is a reason they were 17-14 prior to the ACC tourney. What say ya’ll?

If you feel that strongly about it, make it a two game parlay on PU and UCONN to cover.

My advice. You gotta know when to hold'em. Know when to fold'em. Know when to walk away, know when to run. You never count your money while you're sitting at the table, they'll be time enough for counting when the dealin's done.

It will serve you well. This advice.

If IU covered all their games one season this message board would be a very happy place.

Lots of gospel saying their big can push Edey around a bit.. Bs... Edey will draw two early fouls on him, and possibly a third before 8 minute mark of first half. I'd think Purdue wins by 12-17..

I also think Uconn wont play as well as they have been (God I hope they continue to do) and the their game will be closer than we think. Still see Uconn (hopefully) by 7-10.. If Uconn loses tonight, Purdue is winning the national title. And props to them if they do. Growing up in Evansville, its always been UKfor me as the rival. The only thing I despise about Purdue will be hearing from all 29 of their fans in Evansville if they do come through.

I’m with you-UK is enemy No. 1

I've always thought PU was retarded and their fans nerdy as well, they always brought the heat to me, not me to them. Never even seen them as our life and death rival. Their 29 fans in Evansville make me want them to lose. Thats all.

When the odds get beaten, chicken gets eaten.

I gamble way too much. My best advise, when you think something is a lock, go opposite.

Never sleep on Burns!!!

I actually use to never count my chips back in my poker days because of this song.

Was it good advice-did it help?

I worked with a guy some years ago that was a gold mine. If he gave you a lock then betting the other side was hardly fair to the bookies. I can still hear him, “Chief, can you believe that line. Wisconsin is a lock.”

I couldn’t get to a phone fast enough.

Interesting. My friends from Jeffersonville feel the same — UK is enemy #1 and they don’t dislike PU as much as those of us from the Indy area.

Ehhh who knows. I was a decent player. When I had pocket 8s I was unbeatable. Lol.

One down, one to go. I had Purdue -9.5. I have UCONN -11.5. Congrats to Purdue. That was a crappy basketball game.

18.7 seconds left and it looks like you're going to make it.

This is great advice. That said, my plan all along was to play the semis and then whatever I win, throw it all on Purdue in the championship. I am following through on my plan. Taking Purdue on the money line. If I win, cash out. If I lose, all for fun and lose nothing as my wager Monday will be net of my initial cash outlay.

I can’t like a post on PU winning it all, but good luck my friend.

I hate to see you piss it all away like that. Seriously…

 

[OpenWheels]

Gamblers should not be influenced by the money in the middle of a parlay. If your plan was to bet a parlay, bet the parlay!

Anything else is like programming a computer to make your picks than overriding it .

Fully understand and I don’t like it either. The way I see it, I can’t lose.

Hoo Boy...I have UConn as my winner in the ESPN Bracket thingy...

I think you shoud've taken the winnings...

and with that I'll turn back toward my window and crush out my cigarette...probably fall asleep in the darkness...and just break even.
