Just wondering it seems like most people I spoke to (smaller players) won. I know some of the bigger players I read at forums were on mostly the wrong sides so not sure how you guys did. Just curious.

what is it about steaks post that you don't understand?

1. teasers with Washington lost
2. Jax -2.5 was a winner for the books as Pitt got the cover
3. Chargers m/l plays cashed which is bad
4. Players were on the ov38.5 or 39 which the books won
5. Tulsa -5.5 winner for the players but most lost the total




sometimes containing players is just as good as winning, books don't look to win every wwekend, occasionally they hope not to get hammered.

would any of you recommend to start booking action? where would you point someone in the direction of doing that? any books at barnes & noble to help?

hypothetically.. you've got around 5k, put together around 2 everyday bettors an additional 7-8 weekend bettors.. put a 250 limit on games.. 300 cap on payouts.. under -300 dont get paid over -300 they pay.. and vice versa..
just main sports.. sides and totals w/ 2h plays

I WOULD SAY A WASTE OF TIME TO HAVE ONLY 2 EVERYDAY PLAYERS. THOSE TWO GUYS GET HOT AND YOUR 5G IS GONE REAL QUICK.
YOU NEED A BIGGER BANKROLL

Agree....You could use More Players.....and You Need a BIGGER Bankroll


Long Story Short....MANY MANY Moons ago...a couple of friends thought this was a Great Idea to make $$$

So...they rented a Apt. got two phone lines...and Started with a 30K Bankroll.....

3 Weeks later.....................BROKE !!

They didn't know that they had TWO Sharps......Betting " Hot Games "

Ahhhh...Hot Games.....Where have they Gone ???:ohno:

well you have to start somewhere right? and almost everyone I know has at least one local if not two..
so if you put a limit on games like 250 a game.. or say 300 max on a side.. so 300 underdog 300 total etc. you think 5k wouldn't be a big enough bankroll??

more players and bigger bankroll got it.. most guys I know get a prepaid and put the lines on the voicemail anywhere from an hour to an hour n a half before kickoff...
it'd be mainly hoops and foots.. no pucks and not many totals in NCAA

My local is just for football and he limits me to $200 just sides and totals no halfs
And I am up $4600 this year so I would say you would need a bigger bank roll.

Matt. I'm from Chicago. You could book my bets if we met up and everything was kosher. I would still play mainly offshore though.
