Go here -
SportsHoopla Bookie

And then go to a posted game thread and bet. The bests are polls... you add the money you risk, select that option and bam. Profit. If you lose all of the starting 500 you get an auto-refill of 25...







And if you're me you turn that into more sweet sweet vCash because you're awesome.

I just made either an awesome bet or a very, very costly bet.

The NO vs. OK City game has both a moneyline and a 1/1 spread line. You can hedge the NO lotto moneyline bet (12-1) with a OK City (-15) bet. Only way you don't get your sweet, completely fake vCash back is if NO covers... like a bitch.

I blew all my vCash on the Miami/Spurs game when Miami couldn't beat the Spurs without all their good players by more than 5 points. This is why I hate betting basketball games. I watch basketball more than I do football but it doesn't help. Crazy shit happens with basketball spreads.

I've realized through this vCash experiment that I don't know shit about basketball. All my big loses (post the CFB massacre) have been NBA games. Fuck those from now on.

Luckily I (barely) won the over on the Cinncy vs. Eagles game. Might not do an over for the rest of the year with Philly... with Brown fumbling and Foles throwing to both teams, can't trust them to put up numbers. If it wasn't for a defensive TD, I would've been reloaded at 25 again today.

Maurice Clarett says he got paid more in college than he did in the UFL | Dr. Saturday - Yahoo! Sports

"I took golf, fishing, and softball as classes," Clarett says. "Away from class, anything you can think of I did in my 13 months at Ohio State." Drugs and women were two of the things. Cars were another—he owned three of them at a time, including a brand-new Cadillac and Lexus. "I was living the NFL life in college," he says. "I got paid more in college than I do now in the UFL."

If I've learned anything about the NCAA's selective enforcement, it's that they REALLY don't like hearing about players getting paid. Or even worse, players talking openly about getting paid. I know it's outside the statute of limitations, but is there a chance the NCAA goes sniffing around ohio state again?

I guess some schools are just untouchable and can get away with this shit. I'd love to know what goes on at Alabama.

LOL. Like a said, crazy shit happens with basketball scores. I watch it all the time and it makes no difference. I'm just as clueless. I pretty sure one of the rules of gambling is "If you want to lose cash, bet on basketball spreads"
