McNabb just cost me a LOT of money

cincy_ · Nov 6, 2005

I had a O19.5 and U 20 on the HT

I had Philly +2 for HT

... and McNabb gives TO some credibility with a STUPID STUPID move

For a guy who seems like a pretty bright dude and good QB most of the time, McNabb has no clue when it comes to the 2-minute drill.

Wow...I feel for you.

One of the big players I take action from had 2 dimes on Philadelphia +2 and 2 dimes on OVER 19.5 in the first half. That was a $8400 swing for me on that play.

His coach has no clue to run a two minute drill. The Eagles will lose and not cover this game.

Yo C_Hugg....

I feel your pain bro...was in the same boat. I can forgive D-Mac though, he was just trying to catch them off guard.

All my rage is going to Portis.....Since when did that flavor clown have that kind of game awareness??

He was 10 yards downfield when Brunell fumbled. That return should've been 6.

Cincy, forgive my ignorance, but where is the value in a middle like that?

unless u can get both sides at (+) money, seems like you will lose the vig 99% of the time on that....I mean the only way you can come out ahead is if it lands right on 20, and then that only a win/push, not a win/win....doesnt seem like a very good proposition, what am i missing?

I can see a guy maybe doing it if he gets over 19, and under 20.5 or something, cuz u have one solid number to win, and another to win/push, but what was the draw for you on that wager?

Two things:

1. The most important is that it gives me "action". If this were regular Sunday afternoon game, I would never do this. I will do it on national TV games, though. Also, 42 is the average game total in the NFL so hitting 20 for the HT isn't far enough from the mean for it to be a BAD middle, key number or not.

I paid 10 cents for the play, and I make $1.00 if it lands on 20. I can lay $1.10 to make the same $1.00 but I have no feel for the total, so why risk real money?

2. This helps with my rollover. I got a 20% deposit bonus at Legendz last week and I can't seem to roll it over because I always seem to get better lines somewhere else. Today I paid -115 for a play I could have played at Pinny at -107 just to get the money rolled over. They have 40 cent props at Legendz, so it really is tough to make a good wager there.

In a case where you have a rollover thats a solid play. I'd be pissed myself...f'en bad beats.. My ass is still smarting from Usc and Northwestern yesterday....

OK then.....wasnt questioning your motives as much as wondering what i was miissing, as it didnt seem like great value when there is only a 1/2 point difference......but what you say makes sense...

That fvcking fake spike of the ball cost me a bundle. I had Philly +.5 and Over 19.5 for the half.

they could had just kick the damn FG or something, but NO! Badass Mcnabb had to play funky game
