BA, I started coming to Las Vegas in '86 to bet football, before I moved here in '94. I used to fly in on Friday, bet , collect and on Sunday the Sands and the IP were kind enough to hang early college FB lines so I was able to bet them before I got on a plane home. When I moved here I was one of those guys that hung out at the Stardust on Sunday night waiting for them to hang their CFB lines. I never get tired of watching those numbers go up on the board .

BA, Back in those days ( before computers ) all the postings were hand written on white boards and you could go from book to book and sometimes see a 4+ point differential in lines. Sports book directors were personalities and there was " showmanship " in the industry. It was a lot of fun and a great time to learn the art of College football Handicapping

Compliments to Tony Miller and the staff at the Golden Nugget for their hard work and effort to put early lines up on the board . They did a great job. So great in fact, that I could not find anything that I was willing to accept risk on prior to season start. I typically only look at the first three weeks of the season , as injuries/ suspensions can take you out of a play. I did not see anything that prompted an early play. Well done guys.
I'll just have to be patient and wait for the opening lines in July and see what comes up. I was hoping for, but did not expect many opportunities in week # 1. Reaching for plays is a losing proposition while patience can reap rewards.
Best of Luck to all this season.

BA, Problem with a lot of these games is the multitude of Quarterback and other key losses by teams that make early wagering somewhat more risky. I'd rather wait for the capabilities to assess matctups that will provide me an edge. I feel it's better to wait for more information.

I'm prepared to wait as long as it takes to find betting opportunities that fit my criteria for this year.It may be not til Weeks 3 or 4. But I'll have the edge when I make the play.

3 bets?.....1K limit right? *go to end of line / repeat .....until cash gone
They've increased it to 5 I believe. Personally, I've never bet more than 2, so for me it makes little difference. I only bet games in the first 3 weeks of the season.

If KU has any more players leave the team , I may have to break my weeks 1 - 3 only rule and invest on the KU / KSU matchup on 11/29. The line is currently KSU- 25 very tempting
