Thus, your game needs to land on the 4 in EXCESS of 10% of the time. When you buy 2 points as you did today, you need to land in the sweet spot (between a 7-9 point Indiana win) 50% of the time to make money. You really don't need to google that do you?



I bought one point on top of my teaser that made it -2.5.... Buying point isn't always bad. It give you more of a peace of mind

Excuse me....on 8 or 9 points is the sweet spot so it's even worse than I stated.

Gamble for entertainment, invest for wealth!

Up to $7500, now -$2k or close to that in just 2 games.  It's always the ones who open their mouths that lose it all the quickest.  Sorry, that does suck, but if I were you, I would not post anything for a while.  Your credibility is not looking too good right now.

Sooo JR, you talk about squares this and squares that... However you are constantly purchasing points. Since you are so rich I assume you know what an oxymoron is?

Just a heads up, your math is more than a tad bit off here.
