roy182 Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 Since you are not getting points, are you getting odds?:helmet: I have the same question. If you are not getting odds straight up, then your photo will start appearing in the Webster's dictionary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOVA2Tampa Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I never bet on sports...the games are hard enough to watch without worrying about losing $1000 because some kicker shanked the game-winning FG. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinklein Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I like the move. May the Skins be 2-2 and you $1,000 richer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt [Redskins Fan] Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 It's not a gambling problem if you're a lifetime winner! Good luck bro, for all of our sakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diablo23 Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 What did I say last thread? Ah yes Good luck man As for me, I'm bad luck when it comes to betting on the skins.. Something to that affect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twist Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 My advice is to never bet on the team you love. You lose your objectivity and you’re simply more likely to lose your money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdsknbill Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 You are not catching the point of the thread. I love it brother! Big props to you.

swaroopm Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 illone, congratulations on winning the big money last weekend and best wishes for this weekend. I saw your thread last week and thought of it as we were pulling out to a big lead. I hope this turns into a big roll and you can let it ride for weeks on end. I'm assuming Redskins to win is paying something around +135. For the non-bettors: +135 means a $1000 bet pays $1350 if you win - you get your $1000 bet back plus you get $1350. If you lose, well, you're out $1000. Most of my bets are $5 or $6. No "k" for me...at least until I get more consistent and confident. Betting small, I find it just as satisfying to win and I'm not out big if some kicker shanks a FG or something else bad happens. I was all set to win a teaser in week 2 this year, but my teaser included Redskins +16...that sucked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swaroopm Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 If this continues I've got something else in store for future bets, but I'll cross that bridge when (if) we arrive there. It might be in the works, but not for this game. I don't know about this...if you get on a roll, why mess with a good thing? Like you said yourself: We won like this last week so I'm doing it again this week. Call me supersticious and you would be exactly correct. I'm keeping the amount the same because, well, it worked last weekend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dchogs Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 i'd be better off selling my left testicle and using the money to bet the game... cuz if i put down a grand for a bet, my wife would take both of em anyway. oh, and good luck, brother ill. you're buying either way next time you're in vista. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beaudry Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 i just think you are stupid now.get help for your problem. I am supporting my team buy paying too much for a ticket, driving too far to see them, and spending too much money in the stadium. Damn right. Illone, you aren't "supporting your team" by betting on them. You are profiting off their success, but in no way are you supporting them. Go take that $1000 and spend it on Redskins.com. Then you are supporting your team. Please nobody else follow this idiotic logic that Illone is using. People like this deserve to lose all their money.
