Start out a new month with some winners!

**Big Slick** · Aug 1, 12, 04:18 PM

Cards tonight.
Some live dogs: San Diego, Angels, Philly

I am for sure betting Sunday's HOF game just to have some football action. Yes, I know that makes me a degenerate.

Are you going with the angle that the Saints are mad at the world or QB's in Zona fighting for the job?

**Big Slick** · Aug 6, 12, 01:32 PM

Dodgers tonight.
Tonight might be the biggest dog the NYY will be until they clinch.

**HammerTime** · Aug 6, 12, 03:37 PM

Reds and Texas.

Pound the Dodgers again tonight, no way Rocks shut them out again!

From @BovadaLV: UC 7.5, OSU 9, ND 8, PSU 5.5, UK 5.5, UL 8.5

When I was in Vegas a couple of weeks ago, UK was -300 at 5.5 at one book and Caesar's books had it at 5, but only -170.

**HammerTime** · Aug 7, 12, 11:36 AM

Which did you take?

**Big Slick** · Aug 8, 12, 09:01 AM

Actually I think it was $1000 to win a little over $300 on under 5.5 or $1000 to win like $560 on under 5. I took the under 5. It was funny when I placed my wager I had on my UK hat and shirt and the guy behind the window thought I wanted the over and kept going on about how I was getting good odds on my money. I looked at him and was man we ain't very good, I want the under!

Rockies are killing me!

**Big Slick** · Aug 8, 12, 01:15 PM

CC and the Yanks to avoid the sweep.
LAD and over, they have to the Rocks sooner or later.
Mets over ( I heard Paul Emmel will be behind the plate and he is something like 21 out of 22 games over. That is an unbelievable stat and has to end some time, but it might be next season).

Big Slick, although I think NYY and Dodgers are good plays today, you can't always use emotion. I used to get burnt by this all of the time. I am new to the forum and look forward to looking at these posts with you as this is one of my biggest hobbies! Good luck! Tonight for me-

Detroit +129
Miami +136
Tampa Bay -132

^ Nice to see another poster in here! Good luck.

**RedlegJ** · Aug 8, 12, 02:08 PM

You too! I will keep up with this daily with you. Hopefully we can do some damage.

**Big Slick** · Aug 8, 12, 02:42 PM

Nice to have you on board, but I have betting against the Rockies ever since I knew they went to this crazy pitching philosophy. I just think the Yanks w/ CC (at pretty much the shortest price you will see him) is a decent play.

**Big Slick** · Aug 8, 12, 02:43 PM

In case anyone was interested, USA is -33 with a toal of 190 in today's game.

**Big Slick** · Aug 8, 12, 02:45 PM

I like your TB play, I am big fan of betting on them. I love their pitching staff and now with Longoria back, it might jumpstart their offense. Baseball is a marathon for me when it comes to gambling, especially in the regular season.

**SSC** · Aug 8, 12, 06:56 PM

I bought back off of some of myBengals under and took some on their over on the win total. If Richardson misses time Cleveland will be bad and the Mike Wallace holdout and Ben arm issue scared me.

I took the Niners under win total and the TB over. I like TB a little early.

I also took a little on the Colts to win the title (125/1) hoping Houston falters and Carolina to win the title thinking Atlanta and New Orleans will struggle and I liked their price but I forget exactly what I was right now.
