General - nice run over last 28 days! Solid approach that made a nice profit. I typically don't play NHL but will give your method a shot. Will you post on NHL thread?

Regarding NFL - teasers are the only way to play. I look for favorites -7 to -8.5 and/or underdogs +1 to +2.5 and tease 6 points. You have to be selective and only play 2 team teasers but I have made money with this approach. Straight up ATS bets on NFL are impossible for me!

WAS 1.52 - LOSE $100

COL 2.08 - LOSE $100

LAD 1.65 - WIN $165

LAA 1.56 - WIN $156

Overall cost of bets: $400

Overall winnings: $321

Overall profit: -$79

Record to Date: 126W - 81L, +13.08U, 60.9% Overall Winning Percentage

Starting Bankroll: $10,000

Current Bankroll: $11,308, +$1308

Total Profit to Date (after 28 days of betting): +$1308, +13.08 Units flat betting $100 per pick. This averages 0.48 Units profit per day. Current win % is 60.9%

4 Week Summary: So after 207 bets, over 4 weeks (28 betting days) we have a profit of 13.08 Units.

In this thread we were flat betting each pick $100. This yielded us a profit of $1308 over 4 weeks betting MLB.

Now $1308 over 4 weeks is not enough to live on (for most) by betting $100 per game, however if you had a decent sized bankroll, and were betting lets say $300 per game,

you would of course than profit $3924. Now, you can definetely live off of $3924 per month (well you should be able to!).

As you can see, you don't need to chase. You don't need to make big plays on

"5 star" or "lock" plays. You don't need the stress over massive bankroll swings. 13 Units profit per month is not a hard goal to obtain. Personaly I flat bet a lot more than $100 per game and

I average 15-20 units per month profit over MLB, NHL, and NBA. I do bet NFL, but only for fun and it's much smaller amounts. I have being doing this for over 20 years and I have always made money.

The bottom line here is you can win at sports. You just have to treat it as a job. You have to keep accurate records. Be honest with your handicapping. Understand why you won

and lost games. Track everything and focus your bets on sports you are profitable at. I love watching NFL, but I am just terrible at betting it, thus I avoid putting my money on games.

Have faith. Work hard. Don't be discouraged. Just follow strict bankroll management and stay disciplined.

I will still post plays but I may miss a few days here and there until NHL starts. Goodluck everybody.

Thanks General!
