Florida & Oklahoma rolling spreads again.

I swear I think these two teams have covered every game this year. Ig ot a friedn who bets them every week. Biggest dipshit in the world too...no capping no notes..no nothing. Doesnt matter the number....Florida and Oklahoma big every week.

Oklahoma Over gonna cash again too.

I would have to think that with these two above mentioned teams and the fact that the shittier NFL teams arent covering about 70% of the time, it cant possibly have been a good past 4-8 weeks for the house.

I have to say that you are the first person that I have ever seen have a misspelling in their avatar signature.

You know that it follows you on every post right?

Nice catch, MikeB. Though, your tagline is quite flowery ("If assholes were planes, this place would be an airport") when all you are trying to say "there are a lot of assholes here"?

Nice work on your avatar image encouraging people to close their browser window.... that's a good one, although I don't think it will stand well with the mods.

Just got of phone with local, called to tell me he is all done. Oklahoma knocked him out. Says had Sooners -24 & 81, and they all still took Oklahoma and the over. Screaming & bitching about team that scores 60+ in 4 straight is only 17 (Moved to 24) says linesmakers have been way off in NCAA. I agree, totals in Big 12 have been to low. Says he will payoff on Thursday, that does me no good for Tomorrow.

OU n over again here for like the 5th week in a row here...this team is unstopable....i watched what was i thought the best offense in the 95' huskers and this team is better than they are on offense....they are incredible to watch...i texted my brother tonight and his reply was "team is truely amazing"

whats sick is the books gonna make the title game what?

PK 80??? (before today i heard FLA would be -3) gotta think they drop it after todays games....

you only need 40 from OU to not lose both bets...they are making it easy for bettors this year, they cant make the lines high enough...you cant make the game PK 90 or 95....

gimmie OU and over in the NC game again......

You are right, books have been taking it on the chin. Every person with the smallest bit of knowledge bet Florida and Oklahoma today. The lines have been way off in NCAA football this season. I usually have a good season fading the public in big time nat'l televised games, but this year has been a good year for that formula. Finally today after betting Bama, I took Oklahoma. Felt good to win but it felt too easy.

NEVER feel sorry for the bookies, they are the ENEMY, crying about
having a bad weekend or a bad year, ya ya ya, they still are collecting
10% juice. I've heard their complaining for 25 yrs. NO SYMPATHY!! If they
had the chance they would take all our money...

PPHSERVICES · Dec 7, 2008

I can tell you it's been the worst couple of weeks I have seen in terms of how much players are winning EVER. To put it in perspective a few 50-100 dollar players are up over 10k in this time frame. Been real ugly lately.

I lose every November. I am getting crushed this Nov/Dec.

Pet peeve of mine.

It's 5% damint!

A misconception by most but a book takes $110 on each side,holds $220 then pays out $210 to the winner.

The book made $10 off $220 .

Thats why reduced vig is probably better than a boner when looking for a book.

Pinnacle offered the best reduced vigorous but made it up with sheer volume and kept a low on hand staff.

Notice when calling in a bet(if you could find the damn # to call)it was -110 for call ins as were if you parlayed or teased.

wilheim · Dec 7, 2008

BadCo not to be picky or anything but it's

Vigorish, or simply the vig, also known as juice not Pinnacle offered the best reduced vigorous.

Only a small thing but one worth correcting.

Spot on post.

Used to work in the 'office' with locals in Boston.
For those relativlely new to the game, this is what sharp locals do, amonsgt other things, they study each and everybodies betting patterns.
Once a pattern is established, they will adjust the line accordingly.
For instance, we used to have a certain client that used to like to bet Ron Darling at Shea all the time, when he pitched at home.

If the universal line was Mets with Darling -165, when he called his line was Mets -180.
This is what they do, they look for any type of edge to seperate you from your money.

Your living in 1986 moron. You can't do that shit when ur lumped in with 3-4k players that aren't yours. It's 95% offshore these days. The line is the line.

I don't know the %, but I guarantee you there is far more than 5% of the money that is local. Most of my friends don't even know these sites exist, and only two have an offshore account.

The line is the line is wrong too.
