Mine's +7.5 at -115 and the ML back to +250

Great thinking! I do that a lot with basketball (especially during the tourney). I'll be watching a game and, say, a heavy favorite closed at -10. The underdog comes out red hot and hits 5 of their first 6 shots and the favorite starts off cold and after a few mins the dog is up 12-4...

Makes sense. I remember an issue one time where an account went inactive and it caused some frustrations. Now I know why. Thanks, Pop, always a pleasure chatting with you about this stuff. Not sure you ever said... do you have any action in on our opener yet?

Very interesting. So the people who host the site don't take a rake, they just get like a weekly fee? Are the PPH sites better overall for the bookie than taking bets directly from betters like I used to do with txt messages?

Anyone who bets on a site that makes a parlay lose entirely if a leg pushes is an idiot.

Interesting. I use a private bookie who I used to just get texted lines from and would text him back my bets. He often honored his lines throughout the day (with some exceptions) which I found really advantageous. Then a couple years ago he offered to have me migrate to a website exactly like...

You got an excellent line. I put in back around the time that line came out on my book and I only got 100 to 1.

LOL great minds think alike. I put in a week 1 long shot parlay months ago when lines first came out. Miami+7.5/GT+33.5/Utah-230/FSU-180. Pays just over 6x.

LOL well yeah, good point. My personal "limits" wouldn't have any relevance to sharps.

I think he is talking about weekly lines, not lines set months out. I don't have a limit on the CFB lines that get released on Sundays during the season.

I agree with that, KBC. I never was able to buy into the concept much myself as it simply goes against logic to me and I have an overly rational brain. But I will say, some of the gamblers I respect the most absolutely believe in the concept, so much so that it's made me start to accept that...

I'm on Miami+8 (I bought it up to 8 when it was at 7.5 months ago) which I absolutely love! I'm also in for smaller on the Miami moneyline at +250. I think there's a 50% chance, easy, that we win the game outright. Canes getting 8pts is my favorite play of the entire week 1 schedule. My book...

What you are referring to is known as chasing steam. Here is a good explanation: https://www.onlinebetting.com/steam/ Whether you agree with the concept or not, suffice it to say, sportsbooks have been known to ban gamblers who are openly chasing steam. So IMO there is some merit to it. It...
