I'm loving Kansas -3.5.
i am but im not. playing like such shite lately. also, the game is at 8, so that's probably why it's not on tv. 7 and 9 gets espn 2 games and 8 can probably only get them one tonight. although michigan state-wisconsin is the only other game worth a frick

Finishing up packing right now and I am going to run all my preliminary numbers. Flight doesn't leave for Vegas until 4:30 so I will have everything posted around 4 most likely. Thank the Lord we have a light card today or I don't know what I would do. I am bringing my laptop with me so I will be running numbers in who knows what kind of condition the next two days but I fully expect to rape the sports book while I am there. Lol.

Glad you're back, last night I just about finished getting up to date on my plays spreadsheet for everything I've done since beginning of the year, and I'm up an absurd amount on the NBA. Sorry to shovel dirt on you so quickly. Just an FYI for any of yall who don't track plays on a spreadsheet, do it.....it can be really eye opening and make you a better capper. I sorted by various sorts of plays and it made me realize how much of my winnings I'm pissing away on low odds parlays/teasers. Also made me realize my bread and butter is with the NBA right now.

Can you go in depth on how you track your plays on a spreadsheet. I can use excel but am not fluent and have always tried tracking my plays on paper but that sucks ass.

Wow.....it was all the way back in the beginning of December. Here is the one I use, and it serves it purpose. LINK Much better than tracking by hand, and since it sucks less I'm more disciplined to keep it up to date.

I used to have a spreadsheet that tracked my picks. After a while I realized I was mostly playing chases and other people's systems for Basketball when College Football ended. The only bit of tracking I do these days is comparing my balance to the amount I initially added to the account, and then knowing which sports I'm good at picking and which ones I'm not (Good at CFB, NHL, and Mexico Premiero Division, Bad at NCAABB, Horrifying at NBA). Since my unit is also my minimum bet, I don't play parlays and teasers

I'm about to re up on my 5dimes account. Got a little careless in their online BJ. Was doing so good at L'auberge so I thought hell ill just keep it going. Wrong. Is there any deals for depositing on 5dimes? Like a 15% bonus or some bs?

I checked out the live BJ on 5Dimes, and wasn't that impressed. I played a little on JustBet, but I think it was just because they had some hot live dealers in skimpy outfits. I ended up actually making a few dollars, though I would play at most $20-30 in a sitting and if I got up to $100 would take the money and run.

I'm not the NCAA expert. I just cringe seeing road favs getting the public money, especially a team as young and under-achieving as UK laying points on the road in conference. I figure it'll be low scoring and close. ETA: I haven't and probably won't bet those unless dg plays them

I've been unimpressed with uk as well, though the last couple times out they've shown a little life. Bama may not be a bad candidate to tease to +9.....though I will also defer to dg's wisdom.
