Robin Hoods: PLAY OF THE DAY

Mods can you get rid of scaras; He is working with the TOUT; Robin Hood can you please just get rid of the TOUTS; these forrums are for people to talk about games not Touts trying to make money; we all know he is a out; he is in website promotions the mods know the truth

I handicapped this Denver game to be a tight-low scoring game with plenty of fieldgoals; and with touchdowns far and between. The game didn't play out that way with Baltimore scoring a touchdown in the first minute which I believe changed the speed of the game; ultimately affecting the outcome.

I still love Minnesota to in SU tomorrow and get our week started on the right path.

Thanks for the great posts Neo The One and Shirley_Jester. I wan't it to be well known that I am no different than any of you. I am human. I don't expect myself to win 80% of my bets and neither should any of you expect that from me or from yourself. I decided from an early age that I wanted to be a professional handicapper. Whether or not I really decided that is up for debate, as I still believe the addiction of gambling remains the reason why my life path has taken me to this point, but regardless anybody can accomplish what I have accomplished if they really put their mind, heart and soul into it. You need to have passion about your career and look forward to waking up and doing your job, otherwise you're not going to enjoy it. Do I reccomend anybody take the same path that I took through life, probably not but if it's what your heart, soul and mind is telling you to do; well then go for it. Would a professional actor tell kids to follow the path that they took? No, likely not, because I strongly believe nobody is truly conent with their life and the choices they make until death is close.

To live off of your own handicapping, you need experience (years of learning he ins and outs, what to do and what not to do .. but more importantly you need those years to kick the addiction of gambling. Eventually gambling becomes so tiresome, stressful, brain racking and uncertain, that people almost always hit rock bottom in their life before they realise that gambling is not right for them. Luckily the ones who don't have addictive personalities are able to control the amount of games they bet and how much they can afford to bet on games, but unfortunately 80% of people who start gambling are in it for the money (not the bonus entertainment) so when they lose it effects the way they think and live.

So, unfortunately, most people must first hit rock bottom before they realise discipline, money management and patience. I look at an entire week the same way as I once looked at an entire day. Guys, unfortunately because of my addiction and the career path that I took, I don't have a wife or kids; so spending time with them is not the issue, but I do like spending a couple weeks with my blood family every year and I try to take my parents on a yearly vacation. I do hope and plan to have a wife and children, but in our society most people still frown upon gambling and so when I tell women that I bet on sports for a living, I get mixed reactions.

Anyways, my point is that: if you are gambling for entertainment purposes than bet what you can afford and always assume that you're going to lose your money (so that it doesn't hurt as bad when you do). You do not need to use the one play per day method, whatever works for you. Once you've placed your wagers for the day, stop looking at other games; enjoy the free time in your day and enjoy watching the game at night. If you make some money off betting then every other week or every month (whatever you wan't) take the money out of your account go to a game, buy your wife something nice etc. So that it feels like the time spent gambling is worth it to you and your wife, and so she doesn't feel unwanted or less important to you. Woman love feeling needed and important and frankly; and gambling can take that feeling your girlfriend/wife once had, away.

If you're gambling to make money, or to live off your wagers, then you need to know the following things.

1) You don't NEED to bet one play per day, but it is essential you make less than ten bets per week (never risking more than 25% of your starting bankroll in any given week). Make your wagers, don't second-guess yourself and aim to win between 55% and 60% of your wagers. You will slowly, but surely build your bankroll to whatever your goals are. So it is important you bet 10 plays or less per week and also important that you risk 3% of your bankroll or less on all the wagers.

2) ALWAYS FLAT BET. At the beginning of every year pick how much you wan't to win each game and always bet to win the same amount. It is much easier to win 55-60% of your games over the course of a year then to predict which games are better than others over the course of a year when the future games have yet to be played (if that makes sense).

2) Remember that you should not make your wagers if you are emotionally unstable. If you just had a big win, just had a bad beat loss, your girlfriend just broke-up with you, you are drunk or under the influence of drugs etc. you shouldn't be looking at games and you shouldn't be making bets. You need to look at every game as if it is no more important or less important than any other game you bet all year, and so you must be emotionally stable; and understand this. That is why I like to look at a few days in advance make my wagers and start looking at the next few days before these games even start. Before I start looking at games I listen to a favorite song.

If you understand these three rules then you are on your way to making money longterm off sportsgambling. If you are just in it for fun, then have fun and be sure to reward yourself when you have big wins (like I stated earlier).

I hope this clears a few things up. Goodluck guys.
