esperantinc posted:What line did yinz have for Yale? I got +540 on Rivers. I'm still down 15$ on the day so I'm curious. I think I need to find a new book for the rest of the tournament. I got Colorado at +102 ar Rivers. The rest look the same. Got +640 for Yale on FanDuel

Line shopping on the phone was always a pain in the rear end because my PC never seems to detect location for the various sites, but maybe I should try again with my Macbook now that I’m thinking about getting back into it. anyway go Underdogs

I didn't line shop. I just bet everything. When I said I committed my entire role, I was not whistling dixie.

Line shopping is the first thing any bettor should do to improve their profitability. Can't think of a single reason to accept $100 for a win in one book rather than $105 at another for the same.

I got 590 on Yale. I would shop between books, but I don’t have accounts at most of them and getting verified at Draft Kings was a pain in the dick and I just don’t want to bother.

I got some better odds one place and vice versa. It'll even out in the end. I'll still turn a profit either way.

If this last game holds, I’ll go be up 8 units on 30 blind underdog bets lol. Wish I could have bet the JMU game too.

FanDuel had a 50% profit boost on Kansas Gonzaga so I was able to juice those odds. Hopefully Kansas can pull it off.

0/8 today. Might just take my $25 profit and stop.

Yeah that sucked. I'm still all in, but I get bailing. Last year, rounds 1 and 3 were the biggest return rounds. I'm curious to see how this ride ends.

I lost some money betting on Oakland and Duquesne but won it all back on a UFC parlay so I'm fine with being done for now.

Meh, I’m playing for small enough money; I’m back in for today. (Again, except JMU, unless I find myself in another state before tipoff.) If I go 0-for again today, I’ll only be down like two bets (and I’m doing bets about half the size of what I’d normally do). Edit: with Clemson, and the fact that one of my bets yesterday was a bonus bet, I’m back in the green by about half a unit. CellBlock fucked around with this message at 01:30 on Mar 25, 2024 |

Well, round 3 started off way better than all of round 2 at least.

I got a targeted offer from espn for a 1k “bet reset” aka what used to be called risk free. Had to use before the end of the month. I guess they’re trying to buff their numbers on the books before quarterly reporting, and I hadn’t placed much with them in a while cause their odds and promos mostly suck. I wanted to put it on NC State at +240 but I knew I’d miss the first half hour of the game putting my kids to bed. Anyway just to use it up I decided to do a middle play on the Tennessee game. Took the Vols ML and -3.5 before the game on a different book, then once they had their 18-0 run I used the espn offer on creighton +13.5, who immediately went on a run of their own. Nice to have em all hit. In nfl draft news I can’t stop betting Drake Maye 2nd overall at like +150-180. Can’t stop won’t stop.

If you tailed underdog MLs in round three of the tournament, you are very happy

Drake Maye back down to - odds for 2nd pick in nfl draft, except on mgm where he’s still +150. Might be the last chance to get in

I've been curious about this and was considering joining you. Watched it go from +180 to +140 to +100 to +250 to +450

It is fascinating because it feels like the entire JD at number two is based on nothing. I have two active $1 bets at the draft order being either Caleb/JD/Maye or Caleb/Maye/JD. That was the better value because as long as one of those scenarios happen, you make a profit.

Maybe I’m a fool, but the line on CAR/NYI is tempting to wager on the Islanders +1.5 goals.

Guys, I have a new baseball betting strategy. Wait for the Oakland As or Chicago White Sox to take a lead. Then bet the opponents moneyline. So far 3-1. Just gotta wait until it is an even money bet or better.
