unfortunately living in NY, i can not place bets on MVPs or other awards... i probably would have bet on daniels too...

Bowers at +2200...id imagine that gets lowered before January, he's the only other one besides Daniels and Nix for me right now

damn man... i am still finding ways to lose... for example, i go with a halftime bet that both Gibbs and montey will go over 100... guess what, neither of them did...


Maybe i need to tail your bets....

Usually when I try to tell anyone to tail my bets hit the shitter but here's what I got for today.

all legs are in -120 to -250 range

Fan Duel offers 30% boost for players to make a catch on a specific drive. The promo wording makes it seem like you need to place the bet on the first drive, which frequently has few receptions for a lot of teams. But you don't have to use them on the first drive, can use them any time during the game.

Strategy: wait for a team to fall behind, place bet on their top WR to have a catch




Let's get that paper from FD over xmas fellas

damn... it seems like everything you bet comes out well... i know you lose a lot too... because you have too...


but how many bets do you normally make that you hit so often...

I typically build 3-5 parlays every week, wagering anywhere from $10 up to $50 per wager, but the majority of my bets are $20-25

some weeks I build a couple more than that, some weeks I only build 1 or 2, depending on my free time and confidence level. try to lean in when I'm hot and dial it back a bit when I'm cold, but timing streaks like that is akin to trying to time the stock market --- better to consistently play a little each week vs trying to go heavy in certain weeks

Texted a bunch of friends before kickoff "Feel like it's gonna be a Jamo night"

<narrator voice> indeed, it was a Jamo night

Saw an article online that the sportsbooks were coming together to lobby the NFL to shorten their season.

They don't want so many weeks available for me to place bets
