"Official" BP gambling thread.

Was looking at 4 out of 5 for the early games with the Over Bears stumble but what the hell happened to Carolina letting Washington dictate that football game? Unreal.

I guess I was fortunate to get the Dolphins -3 in last minute to make a few bucks and they tried giving that away too. Hopefully these late games hit and I find a few props/quarters to end on a high note.

Bad draw for me today. 2 defenses - Bears and GB, absolutely blew it today in winnable games.

SF and the CLE U washed me at 2-2.

Still waiting to see what Cincy does and took DAL +3

Yep going 0-2 the afternoon games unless KC scores 50 because CeeDee Lamb is out for Dallas now and Cooper was already out. Hitting a couple of TD scorer props today and the quarters with the Cardinals and Bengals at least limited the losses.

If Zeke can get in the endzone somehow I will hit on another TD scorer bet at least. The spreads are near impossible to get for the game just like the NBA. Quarters and Halves at least show momentum changing so you can protect your bets. Rough day today

Did something impulsive and flat out stupid. Washed at 3-3 when CIN covered but DAL didn't.

Went in on PIT +7 after buying the 1/2 point. Saw Tomlins record as a road dog ATS and The chargers average margin of victory. The dumb part was I went in enough that would have sunk about 1/4 of the account balance I've built since my last withdrawl.

I got lucky with that last Pittsburgh score. Damn lucky. I doubt I'll do something that stupid again, but to date this year I've only had one losing week. The betting gods have been kind to me at times this year where I haven't deserved it.

Ended up big this week starting well on about Wednesday through Saturday. NFL has just been a fickle bitch for me this year. 41 points scored in the 4th quarter last night was ridiculous. Did hit props on both Najee Harris and Austin Ekeler for TD scores. Too bad I didnt get paid for every TD scored by the 2 I would have rolled. Anyway took most of the wins from this week and already did this:

Ohio State -8.0 ($500). It's house money so it wont ruin me but it'll hurt like hell if ttun's Christmas miracle happens. I don't believe it will even be close and that line has to hit double digits soon.

TB should destroy the Giants tonight but that's what makes me pause. Line is up to 11.5 and 49.5. It's in Tampa so weather will be perfect. Leaning the Over 49.5 especially if Barkley does indeed play but is currently questionable.

No Formula 1 this week, and Wales Rugby is done until the Six Nations in February. I think I'll just pocket most of last week's winnings, pay myself back for what I was down and leave enough in for a house money nut for the Ohio State game. Right now, I'm not seeing anything other than the standard line, O/U and moneyline. Hopefully, they'll release some combos, half and quarter and prop bets in a day or two, and I'll mix up a hundred to hundred fifty on them. I'd do a 3 game non-Ohio State parlay, but nothing is really jumping out at me. Next week will be the championship games and F1 is back.

Made my picks.

Combo: Ohio State -17.5/Over 63.5 +425
Combo: Ohio State Moneyline/Over 64 +180
Combo: Ohio State -8/Over 64 +245
Combo: First Half Ohio State -4.5/Over 31.5 +235
First Team To Score 40 Ohio State +145

42-23 is the closest game that covers all my bets (assuming the first half bet is good).

Either the tsun is getting the plunger or my nut is.

I love it. Best I could get is -11.5 for the alternate spreads. I'm about 10 bets in on two sites and I just keep adding to them as my other wins come in. How people are panicking I have no idea but the spread is now -7 some places
