Sports investing

This thread been quiet.   I’m exhausted from sports investing. It’s really a full time job in itself especially on a weekend with all the early action.   Don’t know about anyone else but between all these wonderful college games of opportunity and golf choices with head to head matchups daily and overnight European tour golf in Abu Dhabi and tennis overnight in Australia I’m exhausted.  Finally laid off an overnight bet last night and got a decent sleep.  But it’s been worth it financially so far.  A   Lot of my plays are last second or in game so I forget or don’t have time to log in here to post them.   I’ll try to post more if I like things in advance.  

Sports betting Is also a good distraction to our squad when we don’t win.  Which unfortunately is happening more than I had expected at this point.

So far, so good. Started with $100 in both Draftkings and Fanduel, and up to around $350 in each. I do a lot high-odds of parleys, then hedge in-game. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. Thankfully more hits then misses so far, but damn is this time consuming lol

Glad I didnt take my winnings from Peru vs Colombia yesterday and put it on the Johnnies today
Laying off Johnnies today. Hit with them against GT, not pushing my luck 
 
What's the take on the SB for those football investors? Still can't believe the Bengals are there. 4.5 spread.
 
Crazy betting day yesterday. Came out slightly ahead, so thrilled based randomness of games. Went with Georgetown in 2 of my 3 parleys. One -7 and one at GT to win outright. Just a hunch, we'll see

weekends are nuts with all the college games for sure.   I hit the skids a little after a super hot start.   But hit a great outright golf win with tom hoge this weekend which changed things quickly!!!
Have wyoming to win outright going right now.

I have Wyoming too in 1 parlay, and Fresno in another. If Wyoming wins my rough day is salvaged and I about break even. If Fresno wins I finish down about $50
 
At least Wyoming won and was the better result for you.  They are a good team and if they make the tourney they will be great value.

Congrats on the Wyoming W. When they were up in the 2nd half, and I was able to get Fresno on the plus side, I hedged to balance my proceeds no matter who won. So I actually wound up down $20 for the day. I can live with that.....just so long as it's not a regular occurrence lol 
 
Games I am looking at.  Bolded team is my lean with more research to follow.

FIU VS CHARLOTTE
UMASS LOWELL VS HARTFORD
GEORGE MASON VS RICHMOND OR JUST TOTAL OVER
SOUTH DAKOTA VS NORTH DAKOTA STATE

I was toying with Richmond on the money line as part of a 3-4 team parley. You like GM getting points, or to win? I like FIU and UMASS L also, which means you should probably stay away lol. I've stayed clear of betting U/Os except in-game.

MASON WOULD BE WITH THE POINTS  RICHMOND PLAYING BETTER LATELY IF I TAKE THEM   BOTH TEAMS CAN SCORE IF HITTING THEIR 3'S   TOTAL IS PRETTY HIGH AT 152 SO THIS GAME COULD BE AN IN GAME IF SLOW START

Sorry about the CAPS lol.   Did not realize.

Monte might appreciate this. 

I jump on the under in game live bet on Florida Georgia first half (just before they both seem to start hitting every possession).  It was 67.5.  No joke. As soon as I took it.  Georgia scores. Then Florida.  For like the next 5 possessions.  The pace was ridiculous.   Then I see with like 2-3 min left in half.  They are at 64. I see a glimmer of hope if they just miss and don’t foul!!   2 min left. 2 foul shots made   Then nothing. Missed free throws. Turnovers leading to no points. UNTIL 1 sec left. Offensive rebound leads to that last second second chance layup. 68 points.  Amazing.
