JustDave a former member made a mint on Monday Night Football using the exact same theory. I cant remember the exact name, but as the comfort level of the wager went down, the size of the wager went up. The hard bets to make are the winners.

Keep your chin up teru. Things usually come around, just a bad streak for you I'm sure. BTW, I've been on a bad one myself for the last week or so.






"furthermore, no picking side while drunk!"

Excellent idea. I've been bitten myself once or twice.

as long as

were venting:

i'm 4-6-1
2 losses were ahead in 9th--down in flames
1 loss ex inn
last nite ov kc/tor was EXCRUCIATING landing on 9--had more chances than carter has liver pills.

i think this is the aspect of this that is addicting.
