Some bets for Thursday.  

 

Michigan State +1.  You all know I am a huge Terps fan.  I am making this bet with the best of intentions.  I have been on such a cold streak recently that I am using some reverse psychology and juju.  I bet on MSU, the Terps win.  You all can thank me tomorrow!

Seton Hall -1.5

Rutgers -3.  I have watched Indiana play several times this year and they are horrible.  Not that Rutgers is a juggernaut or anything, but I think they cover tomorrow.

Missouri -6

Mississippi State +3.5

  

I’ve got the Rutgers and Spartans games tomorrow.  UNC made me some money tonight.  Too bad I can’t bet on VA teams.  I’d take the Tar Heels tomorrow.

I also have WVU -3, money line on Texas, Ohio money line and GTown +8

I was thinking UNC today, didn't pull the trigger.  I like that West Virginia bet even though Oklahoma State beat them several days ago.  Bob Huggins will have them ready.

 

Duke vs. Florida State tomorrow should be interesting.  Florida State is favored by 3.5.  This is Duke's third game in three days.  Florida State lost to Notre Dame recently, but they are rested.  They have also been a very good team all year.  Matter of fact, I just talked myself into it haha, going Florida State.  Gonna take them -170 though, not gonna mess with the spread even though I think they cover the 3.5.

Colin Morikowa at 25-1 is great value for Players Championship.

 

Hedge with DJ 10-1, JT 18-1, Shauffele 18-1 & DeChambeau 14-1

3 weeks in a row with the small ball. Locked in with JT at 20-1 with very little need to hedge through week with DeChambeau as betting favorite each round.

 

Honda classic up next

Anyone's guess who wins Honda Classic, worth placing many smaller wagers to win similar amounts.

 

Play of the week... Talor Gooch 35-1. He was locked in at times over the weekend at Players and had some nice runs in the past year. 

 

Chalk: Sungjae Im has been close a lot this year. 13-1

 

Mid tier hedges: K. Bradley 40-1, Cam Davis 45-1

 

Long range efforts: Phil 100-1, Varner III 90-1, JT Poston 70-1

 

Sneaky top 5 pick: CT Pan at 33-1

Here are some of my first round bets.  I'll give 5 as usual.  Going underdogs cuz that is what March Madness is all about.  One favorite cuz I think they will blow out their opponent.

 

Arkansas -8.5

Oral Roberts +16.5

Georgia Tech +3 (this should be a pick em.  Loyola Chicago is very good but G Tech has the better athletes)

Liberty +7.5

Cleveland State +20.5

 

My one pick for this evening is Celtics +4.  The Jazz have been struggling lately.

Pretty good showing yesterday thanks to some free bets that betMGM gave me.  Learned something new.  Had a 4 leg parlay at +713.  Won three legs and pushed the fourth.  Thought that would push the entire bet.  Wrong.  They recalculated the odds as if I made the three game parlay.  So I won +330.  It was a nice thing to wake up to this morning.

I'll be posting my 1-800 number with guaranteed free golf pick for the WGC match play this week. I hope everyone is riding this gravy train. 

 

Stay tuned for parlay magic in Weds first round of match play

Liking a European for overall winner, they just seem to have better understanding of match play. 

 

Going Spain with Rahm & Sergio at 7-1& 12-1 respectively.

 

Added Spieth on Weds at 10-1

 

Have a group winner pending today with Cantlay (already in) & Rahm at 4-1.

^ Wish I enjoyed watching golf or I would bet on some of those.  I can't bet on something I don't watch or at least have some knowledge of.  Good luck!

 

Underdogs absolutely cleaned up the first two rounds of the NCAA tournament.  If you have been betting Oral Roberts moneyline you are making good money!  North Texas over Purdue was good eating as well.  Syracuse, Ohio, Oregon State, Loyola over Illinois - lots of profit to be had.  I think this weekend reverts to the favorite covering, but I do like a couple dogs.

 

USC -2

Houston -6.5

Michigan -2.5

Oral Roberts +11.5 (gonna ride them until the train stops)

Villanova +7.5

 

My two bets for the NBA tonight are Lakers -3.5 and Pacers +1.  I think the return of Caris LeVert is gonna boost the Pacers big time.

Fun story I took Oral Roberts +500 against Florida.  $20 max bet with those odds.  Florida goes up by eleven, I think, and cash out at $8ish bucks.  Then ORU comes back.

Interesting, I didn't know there were books that allow you to cash out when you are losing a bet.  So you bet $20 on Oral Roberts moneyline, then when they were down you figured you would cut your losses and cashed out for $8, taking a loss of $12?  I don't blame you.  Too bad you didn't ride it out though!

I've taken some small wager bets on leagues I know very little about just messing around.  Nothing has really peaked my interest today.

 

Won 15 on Finn Harps beating Dundalk in League of Ireland Premier Soccer

Won 2.88 on Barcelona -11.5 spread beating ALBA Berlin Euroleague

 

I did take a 5 dollar bet on a FD Super Boost today: Trae Young to Double Double and Hawks to beat Golden State +200...it's now down to +170

 

Looking forward to International soccer games and NCAAB tomorrow

Exactly.  This is through DraftKings.  Similarly you may have a parlay going and have won 3 of the first four legs.  Say you bet $20 to pay out $90 bucks.  They may entice you to cash out at say $40 before the fourth game gets going.

What’s Vegas like these days?  Is it noticeable that we are in a pandemic or is it mostly open?

 

Noticeable. They take your temperature on the way in and there is social distancing at the bars and restrooms. Everyone wearing masks, if you aren't security comes up and tells you to put one on. I'm wearing my WFT mask.

I keep seeing ads for the various online sportsbooks that are like, bet $1 on the easiest bet (like if anyone hits a three pointer during an entire NBA game) and win $100.  

 

I know they are just doing it to get me to sign up, but is there anything preventing me from signing up, betting the $1, winning the $100, and then betting the $100 on a huge longshot?  Collect big $ if it hits, and then delete the app and my account if it doesn't hit?

Pretty sure no.  It's like those promotional free gambling credit thingies.  They think once you roll the dice, you'll be hooked.
