^^heh you went to centsports too huh?


Lot easier when you are betting someone elses money

2/29/2008 9:49:30 AM

I always end up losing anything I gain at centsports so I've made it a habit that when I get down to 10 cents I make a 1 cent bet on some tennis game then immediately forfeit it when I can. That way I can get another 10 cents and start out with 19 instead of 10. It is a sad betting life that I lead.

2/29/2008 12:10:28 PM

Dang that would help out a lot trying to make more money

Hopefully I wont dip back down to 10 cents again but if I do Imma do this

Im trying to get up to a decent amount of money for march madness to make things more interesting

2/29/2008 2:16:10 PM

Haha I love centsports... I'm up to 50$ again now.

2/29/2008 2:39:19 PM

^you still betting on moneylines to get that high up?

Im up to 90 cents on one and around 60 cents on the other


slowly getting there

2/29/2008 2:43:11 PM

He got a big ML on a tennis game and bet 10 bucks on the Wisconsin game last night. I ended up bein his lackey somehow so I get to watch and as he gets 50 bucks and I have 85 cents.

2/29/2008 2:45:43 PM

lol




tennis huh? guess I start checking that shit out too

2/29/2008 2:46:54 PM

Haha yeah. I usually try and bet 2-3 game parlays to try and get up to a dollar, but once i did that I just bet single games until I got to 20$. From there I try to spread it out more and bet 10$ on my locks.

^^ And even still I like seeing even 5 cents from my cronies - I'll take free money any day.

[Edited on February 29, 2008 at 2:49 PM. Reason : aa]

2/29/2008 2:48:12 PM

for some reason those bastards took all my cronies off my profile

2/29/2008 3:06:04 PM

Yeah apparently that was a bug that happened when they changed the system. Now when you sign up you can pick who's cronie you want to be. But you should have yours back now.

2/29/2008 3:12:53 PM

I just posted about centsports on another forum that I read, hopefully they all love it and are amazing betters and become my cronies.

2/29/2008 4:56:15 PM

2/29/2008 7:47:10 PM

Johnson is so bad. He had paulus beat and just had to lay it up. Instead, he didn't take the shot and kept going for a charge.

Funny conversation I had with my sports book online live chat/help:

Chat InformationPlease wait for a site operator to respond.
Chat InformationYou are now chatting with 'Robbie'
Robbie: Welcome to our live chat service.
Doug: Hi what is the Round Robin with 2's
Doug: and the Round Robin with 2's, 3's
Doug: when I am doing a parlay bet
Robbie: just a moment please
Robbie: Round Robin
Robbie: Easily turn your parlay or teaser into a Round Robin. A Round Robin bet is a method to box a parlay or teaser. 5Dimes automatically calculates the combinations for you. A "Round Robin with 2's, 3's" would include all the possible two team and three team parlays which can be made with all the current selections. The risk amount entered will be the desired risk amount on each individual combination created.
Doug: and do you know roughly of what winning percentage these are with a 3 game parlay?
Robbie: no sir, i don`t
Doug: is there a live service that I could talk to people who have advice about the games to bet on?
Doug: does 5dimes provide that service?
Robbie: i don`t know of one
Robbie: we do not offer that service
Doug: last question are there any sports betting bonuses that will be coming available in the near future?
Robbie: no sir, we usually offer the same bonuses we have right now, sometimes for football season we do
Doug: okay thank you have a good day
Robbie: you are welcome
Robbie: bye

I encourage others to do this as well, ask them ridiculous questions and post the transcript here

3/1/2008 3:39:15 PM

OK, here's a silly question.

Do any of you ever just stick to playing the money lines on "almost for sure" bets?

I sometimes play the spread or over/under, but the last couple of weeks I have just been playing really obvious moneylines. The payout isn't great, but I like to win, and I haven't lost yet. For instance, here's my last few bets. Typically the payout isn't good. Actually it is bad but I just feel like the odds of losing are so small, that the risk is warranted.

I dunno, anyone who actually bets a lot probably thinks this is retarded, but thus far it is working out.

dzags, where do you get your 10 dollar picks from? I haven't seen you miss one since I started noticing 10 dollars picks.

3/2/2008 10:24:26 AM

Heh, I missed on a few yesterday My last two of the night hit so those are the only ones that show. Pretty much I just have a bunch of sources who list their picks, I pick from those and researching them more.

Yesterday I missed cuse -3, duke -11 and texas -5.5

That's cool, I'll prolly just try to get back up to 1 dollar then steal your picks again >_>.

3/2/2008 11:44:09 AM

Heh Yeah its really annoying all the messages I get on that site now from people asking me to be their crony and give them picks. I wish the site didnt have a leaderboard so I could just be in peace. I mostly just do tons of 5 game parlays to push my bets off the history page so the annoying people can't comment, all they see is losing parlays.

What was the final score in the Clemson/Maryland game? ESPN.com showed it as 73-70 so I canceled my bet, but yahoo has it as 78-70 which means I would've covered on my over bet >_>.

I did pretty well today but barely came out on top because I put to much on the UCLA and loyola games.
