Split your money, don't bet everything on one game bet half on one game half on another that way you are bound to hit one and still keep the money you have and if you win both you're on your way.

That is how I build it out, once I get around 1,000 I split it between 3-5 bets at a time, all for smaller amounts. I will do that for a while, but I always eventually put it all on one thing and lose it. I have done it enough that I think it is safe to say I have a problem.

When I was done around 1,000 I didn't like betting it on 5 different games then you have to be right on 4 of them to turn a profit.I liked splitting between two that way you don't have to be right 4 of 5 games to make any money and even if you split you stay even, I think you have a much better shot of making two good bets than making 4 out of 5.

I should have put my money on the Bengals straight up instead of on Denver -3. Not a fan of Osweiler.

So, you are a fan of A.J. McCarron?

I think they are both terrible. Bengals have a better ground game and the defenses are both very good.

I would take McCarron with AJ Green, Bernard, and Hill over Osweiler with Thomas, Anderson, and Sanders.

Although no Eifert is kind of a big deal as well.

I'd suggest 9 rounds, so no match ends in a tie. Also, for the playoffs, each team must PM you their order before each round for 9 head to head matches, players won't know their opponents order till it's posted(you can PM yours to me or Ritz, depending on who you play)

Sorry, but I would be out for that. Don't know or care enough to participate in something like that.

I assumed it would be a foursome and they played best ball. This would be more like the Ryder Cup? that would be a lot of fun as well.
