2011 Taking it to the Bookies Thread


Tour of Duty

Recommended Posts

Dont mess with overs on the Skins. While Dallas is capable of putting that up themselves, a rule of thumb I always try to live by is don't allow a bet to count on one team to do what you want to have happen for the bet to cash. With that theory in mind, you'd avoid the under as well, since the Skins stink so bad they are a good team to bet unders on, but the Cowboys could score a bundle of points on their own. The high/low on the Skins game is a no play for me, see if you can find something to replace it with. Also, when you are setting up a teaser, do your best to cross key football numbers like 3,4, 6, 7,10. If you can get a teaser line to cross all five numbers they call that a good line and a safe bet for hedging but you always want to cross at least one of those numbers for the teaser to make any financial sense at all.

You might be ok on that Dallas over since the Skins will score 6-9 points and Dallas could get to 28 for you but I have that game capped 20-9 in favor of the Cowboys so you might be better to just tease the cowboys to a positive number.

You've got a lot hinging on Green Bay. I'd take sort of a round robin approach and parlay Dallas with the Cincy/Balt under.

Yeah, I got burned today big time. Backdoor covers by TB and Tenn. I can only take consolation that I didn't bet big today :(

Letting it ride tonight with a couple plays on the Gmen at home against Philly. $140

I did not see a 2012 one, so I aplogize. But I rarely...actually can count on one hand how many times I've bet on sports. But tonight, I'm wagering enough to get my Phils tix for the Nats series in DC this weekend on the Flyers.

GO FLYERS!
