"They are who we thought they were"...Dennis Green

Don't you hate when a team SUCKS you in? It RARELY happens to me
but the Redskins actually made me believe that with a brain dead
near retarded quarterback that their defense could win that game
for them. I got sucked in hook, line, and sinker. The reality is
that a steaming pile of dog shit is a steaming pile of dog shit no
matter how you look at it.

Ok, to answer those of you who wanted to know how to donate....First of
all thank you. The more people that donate even a little here and a
little there help keep the blog free. To make a donation, simply put

Then simply click the Alert Pay button and you can complete the payment.

Ok, on to today....

It's bowl season and the best investment on the board looks like Oregon State.
BYU certainly got their share of recognition this year but in this matchup Oregon State is much better than people will give them credit for and there is a reason that they are the favorite.

NCAA Football - Oregon State -125 Money Line

Well that was a great hit for all of us with Houston but disappointing that my blog update for yesterday didn't upload.  We had the St. Louis Blues +160 who were a nice winner but what can you do with technology???

For today we are going to close our eyes and take the Redskins.  I personally think Jason Campbell is one of the worst QB's in the league and a complete butcher at reading defenses, however, the Skins have a great defense themselves and more importantly....the public is all over the Giants but the line is not only NOT moving up but in some places it's actually down....RED FLAG.

Also, in other business...thank you to those of you who emailed asking me about donations to the blog.  I will have a donation button on here really soon and every little bit is very much appreciated.

NFL - Washington Redskins  +3

The Sports Investing Professional - Friday

Hello Everyone and I'm sorry I couldn't make the cut off for email yesterday as I was going to have all of you take the Indy Colts again.   Every week the "experts" pick against them and yet another week where the Colts find a way to cover.

Today is Friday in the NBA and that means potential big moneyline dog payoffs.

Sitting high on top of my NBA enigma list is the Dallas Mavs.  They cover when they shouldn't and get rolled up when they should win.   Today the surprising Rockets come calling.  The man has assigned the total kick in the nuts line of -5 so thats often a little indication right there but I think it's worth an investment to take Houston + 210 to win this puppy outright.

NBA - Houston Rockets +210

Ok....it was good to finish the week on a high note as we had a nice

run going and then threw in that clunker with the Phoenix over.

I still don't understand why everyone liked Denver there but most

people don't understand how to handicap NFL.  In the NFL the pointspread

only comes into play about 22% of the time.  The winner of the game will

cover 78% of the games and that obviously means you have to pick some

upsets but if you're going to give me a team like Indy and I can buy it

to less than a touchdown favorite.....I'll take it because there was never

a doubt to me that they would win that game so I know that gives me

an 80% chance of a win!

Today we're going to take a shot at a nice price in the NHL......

The LA Kings boast a very nice road record and have beaten some very

very good teams on the road.    The price is right to make it worth the

investment.

NHL - LA Kings +160

A tough outcome for us in Denver.   After the first quarter I

knew we were done.    So we turn the page to NFL Sunday and

we look to the Colts.  Every week I read and see everyone pick against the

Colts and many weeks this season I've been on the colts cashing my ticket.

My only advice today is get the line under 7 even if you have to buy it.

NFL - Indianapolis Colts -6.5

Thank you very much for the kind emails from some and thank you also for the emails calling me "crazy" and "idiot"   before the game ever started.

Now I don't just put things on this blog for my health.  I actually play what I put up here and I thought I had found a real edge with NY and I was right.  The reward was awesome as I got a solid +260 at several places.

Today, nothing as dramatic but lets keep the winning rolling with another NBA winner.

NBA - Phoenix / Denver OVER 228

Ok its Friday and in NBA that means that crazy things will happen.

Today we're taking a shot at a big payday.   In New Orleans, the 

Hornets have at times  had some issues scoring and the Knicks are

starting to put some games together.   Let's go for the big payout on 

this one!!

NBA - NY Knicks +260 Moneyline

Well the last time we all got together the landscape of sports investing online was different.  You could call into The Greek and make a phone wager buying 3 points for -170.   However, the Greek has said "NO MAS"   Now you must buy your points online for a hefty price.

You see, this trend doesn't scare or bother me one bit.  Vegas has very limited point buying and thats been the case for years.   They saw the massive study done on point buying where in the NBA it was determined that 3 points was actually worth -190 so when you get it at -170 it's a steal.  The same study also determined that by offering a 1 point buy the books would actually increase their revenue because the effects of a 1 point buy are actually negative.   So they wasted no time putting themselves in the most profitable position.

The offshores will eventually follow suit.   People who don't understand how to get their edge and just play systems like the one the crook John Morrison stole and promotes....you people are screwed.  Chasers in general are going to be screwed in basketball.    In reality it's probably for your own good because I don't know one professional and I mean REAL PRO who's making their living betting games.....who would ever risk 15 units to win 1 unit on a game 3.   

As the new era of online sportsbetting is ushered in slowly, it's important that all of you learn to manage your money and do it the right way.   There are a lot of good options out there that don't require chasing.      Tod Wilkinson (Platinum Sports Investing Club) was the first to introduce the labourchere to the sports betting world and always has a complete explanation of the Labourchere including any updates that his stats team will make.    You can always check out the latest on the labourchere at:   www.platinumsportsinvesting.com/labourchere.aspx

Chasers usually don't like this money management method because it's "SLOWER" in getting your money back but I've been using it now for about 6 months and my personal bottom line has improved by 20%.

There are other money managment methods that you can use.  Frank Bellanger has a book called bookie buster which offers several options to manage your money.  You can check that out here:  BOOKIE BUSTER

You should always be trying to manage your money better because that is the key.  Sports betting is beatable with our without point buys.  You just need solid information and rock solid money management.   Don't panic everyone, it's all going to be fine.

Today the games stink so I'm not playing but tomorrow I'm looking forward to finding a nice 150+ underdog that will win outright!!!

See you all tomorrow.  Check out the money managment sources I pointed out and prepare yourself in the event that you are not allowed to buy points anymore.

You can put it on the booooaaarrddd....................YES!

Where is my Hawk Harrelson audio when I need it.  The Nuggets got the job done for us and lets us go back to back with nice underdog winners.

Today, I wish we could go with another dog but we have the next best thing.  In NBA, Sacramento has been a very solid home team and Miami had been getting all kinds of credit from the line makers.   The value is on Sacramento as a "PK" at home.   Lets take Sacramento and  see if we can't extend our win streak

The only thing better than a winner is a winner that pays us +175 for our efforts.   We're going right back to the NBA tonight for another moneyline winner.   The Nuggets are one of the leagues best and I'll take them plus money against anyone.  Especially a San Antonio team that historically doesn't hit their stride until mid January.

NBA - Denver Nuggets +135

WOOF!   I sure do love betting underdogs and even more so when they win!

Today we're going to take a shot with another dog.  Toronto was completely embarrassed in their last game giving up nearly 150 points.    Pride takes over and we get the win at a nice moneyline price.

NBA - Toronto Raptors +175

Nothing sweeter than helping everyone out coming back with a win on the OKC.   Let's see if we can make it two in a row today as we'll head over to the NHL for what I think is a live dog

AHHH it feels good to be back.   Sorry for the long hiatus and I really appreciate all the emails from everyone who follows.    A little R and R and a little research will hopefully provide us all with some extra cash in our pockets.

For today I look out at the NBA landscape and see a Philadelphia team who was buried in both of it's recent road games and clawed their way back in.  Today, I'm thinking they're not so fortunate.

NBA - Oklahoma City -5.5.  Bet to win 1 unit
