I had Cleveland St +8.5 and Wright State -3.5 but didn't hit submit. CSU won outright and WSU covered...

Back in the action today...

Pitt +17 vs ND. Pitt has been good for me this winter when it comes to covering, gonna take the 17 points.

Montana State -1 vs North Dakota. 65% on ND but line swung 3 points in favor of MSU. Going to ride where the money is going.

Idaho State -3 vs. Southern Utah.

Ooooof, Montana State blew a 19 point 2nd half lead. Glad I didn't watch that one. Pitt covered but Idaho State did not. 1-2 on the night.

Man I don't know how many double digit leads my bets have blown in last week, geesh.

MKE/Houston miss the over too. Both teams hit a little cold stretch with like 6 minutes to go.

And Bethune Cookman loses by 1, led by 11 at half. I'll be done for a little while now. Damn.

What's the North Carolna/Lipscomb total going to open at? Like 175?

I don't know where to find those early numbers.

Now that girlfriend and I broke up, I can go back to being a degenerate gambler.

I had WVU +6.5, Clemson +6, and Syracuse +11 yesterday. 3 quarters through each game West Virginia looked like the best bet. That Clemson comeback was unreal and I can't believe Syracuse held on. Felt like things were on the verge of being busted open the whole game.

Underdogs have to be killing this tourney, right?

I don't know how I'm going to resist KSU -1. Seems like a sucker bet.

Supreme Court Decision on sports betting laws might be as soon as next week. Of course, Wisconsin will be the last state to get in on it, so don't blow off all yer usual connections quite yet.....

Made a deposit at Bovada and less than an hour later had a fraud alert on a purchase in China. Probably shouldn't have used my card for deposit and deposited in Bitcoin. Annoying.

Still nothing. I keep hearing "any day". But yeah it won't be legal here for a long time even if the SCOTUS rules in favor of New Jersey.

It has begun. FS1 is going to have a daily show dedicated to sports gambling.

It was only a matter of time, its going to become the new fantasy. Give it anther couple years. Its too bad we don't have better leadership in WI to legalize gambling. But who knows what happens in the next decade.

It's not as easy in WI as a simple yes/no vote in the legislature. You also have to negotiate with each tribe. I imagine it will happen at some point but not anytime soon. Perhaps if IL and MN start offering it there will be a push. Illinois has already had a number of sports betting bills in their last session, nothing is expected down there until after the November elections. Minnesota also has some bills pending. But nada in Wisconsin. I don't see the big deal. If there is already slots, VP. Poker, craps, blackjack, roulette, etc... why not sports betting.

IL’s budget is so screwed up, I could see them becoming the first Midwest state to legalize it.

Is there an easy way too bet online? Or is it still just shady sites?

Also, I'm less annoyed about gambling shows than fantasy shows. Nothing annoyes me more before a big week of NFL football and they have a whole fantasy show debating starting either Matt Ryan or Matt Stafford. Let's talk about the actually games.

I heavily bet against teams doing back to back games with the first being home the second being away ATS. I tracked all B2B ATS games and that seemed to have the best win %. I will be doing a similar system this year and will be keeping track. Certain teams like GSW were kept out of my "system". It's not much of one but it was decently successful.

I took the Bucks -3 tonight for $35 just for fun. I tend not to play games that have some emotional involvement but the season opener has me jazzed. I don't do large amounts on bets, but it's always fun to do some here and there.

Scary stuff. I have talked to the man many times, I am a small time player but he always treated me well.
