There are approximately 50 games today between NHL, NBA, college football and college basketball.

All I have to do is pick one solitary winner out of 50 opportunities. Im not liking my chances.

I was 0-4 yesterday. Only made 4 plays all day and all 4 lost. People who have never watched a game could go 1 for 4. My Best Bet entry was a loser as soon as I hit enter. I watch Florida dominate the paint in the first half and even though I knew they couldnt maintain 60% shooting from the field in the 2nd half, you figure Ohio St wouldnt maintain their 54% either.

Im not having any fun. I dont have to win every game or even profit every week but FUCK the consistency in which I am losing is really starting to make me less than pleasant.

Im am seriously considering ending my writing gig with RebateWager just so I dont have to bet every single day.
 
Patty the market had nothing to do with the obvious plays yesterday. Northeastern out hussled South Illinois in the first half and looked to be the play in the 2nd half but I passed, they covered the 2nd half and won the game outright. Tulsa played ho-hum in the first half against Oral Roberts and you just knew they were the 2nd half play and I even posted about it yet I passed, they covered the 2nd half and the game as well.

I didn't bet Florida for the game but if you watched the first half you saw how dominate Florida was in the paint. Even if you knew as I knew the 60% shooting wouldn't last you also asumed Ohio St's 54% too wouldn't continue. So I played the better team from the first half in the 2nd half. It lost. The market had nothing, I repeat NOTHING to do with any of the decisions I made yesterday.
 
Wally, pinnacle had the 2h line of Florida as Florida -1 +103/OSU +1 -120

Betting Florida at -110 there is awful...

Until you understand this, like patty said, you may as well stop if you hate losing this much because it will continue to happen.
 
Oh yeah and you didn't know anyone would cover the 2nd half. If you knew as in almanac lock knew you would put your house,car(s),kitchen sink,toilet paper,cat on it. You would get bank loans and max everything on that side. You don't know whats going to happen just like everyone else. It's math wally not certainty.
 
So let me see if I follow this Pinnacle thing here. I ran my program (not working or not I still run it as a reference) and according to it Toledo should be favored tonight but the listed line is dead on or maybe favors Bowling Green slightly. Since I have no edge I pass on the game. Looking further into the game we see that the starting QB Dantin for Toledo is out and freshman QB will be playing which furthers my desire to pass on this game.

Now I go to Pinnacle and I see that the line is Toledo -10.5 (+100) and this tells me Toledo is a pass or Bowling Green is the play?
 
What durito is saying is you don't seem to get it after people explaining numerous times and it's too hard to make people understand and also a pain in the ass. Wally just tail durito/focker/tomato you'll have a better shot winning that way. Suck up your pride/ego and do it.
