MONDAY: $198 ON THE SAN DIEGO CHARGERS -1 AT HOME OVER THE DENVER BRONCOS, 8:40 PM EASTERN

-----------

One of our readers has started a new blog. Check out Josh's blog The Betting Journal. Frankly I wish all my readers had blogs. You guys are just as good of handicappers (especially if you are just following a few teams) as Pick Nation or anyone else. Josh may surprise us. You never know who will get hot!

I feel like a French pig trying to sniff out truffles. I can't really tell you why, but there is a big truffle over there in the forest and it has the Chargers name on it. The public and/or "sharp money" are on the Broncos and they have moved the line from San Diego -3 to San Diego -1. I am going with my nose on this play. A shout out today to my only seven blog readers MattyMeach, Josh, Navy, Shaneel, Serge, jimmcc01 and GoFalcons! Good luck on whatever you bet today guys!

After winning my last bet yesterday on the Seattle Seahawks, my Labby Line today is now X - 9 - 9 - X. I am betting to win $180 or 18 dimes today. My bet is $198 on the San Diego Chargers -1 over the Denver Broncos to win $180.

If I win that bet, I will start a new Labby Line on Tuesday of 9 - 9 - 9 - 9..

If I lose today's bet, my Labby Line will become X - 9 - 9 - X - 19.8.

What is a Labby Line?

RECAP/UPDATE:

Terrible pick. Loser, FINAL SCORE: Denver Broncos 35 San Diego Chargers 24

One dime is always equal to $10 (starting fund of $10,000/1,000 dimes)

I am still mad at Al for firing Dom Chambers. The Dom Fade was golden. Its like Al does not want us to make any money.

Navy is here as well...

I def will comment more as well. I read Sunday's post and was thinking how nice it was to print money. Lang and Dom, those were the days. Hopefully, we will find another way to print money. Until then, we will keep on chuggin.

I have a wagering philosophy...HOME FAVORITES who are laying -2 or -2.5, always play the DOG. This was the case w/ San Diego earlier, but I will predict a 2 point win by SD. Therefore, Rick you are right on.

Check this philosophy out...it work in NFL and major College games like this past weekend w/ SC/LSU. Its not for the random conf games.

A principle that I still follow a lot that discussed in this blog. It seems to work A LOT in the NFL and that is fading big public favorites. They seem go lose very frequently.

I love this blog and have been checking in on this site for almost a year now. You have been doing an amazing job, and I wish Lang was still around to cash for us like last bowl season. Keep it up

I am following Indian Cowboy. Last year he was real good in pro basketball at the start of the season. I posted his plays to my sports monitor and was the top handicapper for December 2011 in NBA lol. My little trophy is on the bottom right on this blog. I felt like President Obama did when he received his Nobel Prize.

Josh just started his blog. I have a feeling he may surprise us with some good picks. I linked up to his blog and his twitter account. I got a good feeling about it.

Welcome. I hope you are having a great day!

This is an informational blog for Nevada residents only. Please feel free to make comments. If you think I am full of it, tell me! I hope this blog is helpful and entertaining and even possibly profitable to you. I will never tell you to bet a hockey game! Can I tell you the secret to sports betting in two words? Money management. One thing I know for sure, you are here and you are reading this. You are a winner!

My rules for sports betting:

As you win, your bets per dime should go up. As you lose, your bets per dime will go down. This automatically adjusts for runs or streaks. You should bet more when you are winning and bet less when you are losing. This rule does not apply to Labby Lines.

ALWAYS get the best line. Shop Around. Get up early. Have multiple outs. This is critical to long-term success, you have to do the work. Never play at a sports book which is known for not paying winners, make sure your sports book is not on the Black List. For grading purposes, we will grade all plays as what is most available to players. So don't be surprised if I change the line during the day for grading purposes, IF the line goes against me.

Use 1,000 dimes. Have the biggest bankroll you can put together. Most of the money you can just keep in the bank. But it has to be there to withstand any severe downturn. This is money you can afford to lose.

Never pay for a pick or bet based on what a paid tout says. You know I am giving you my best opinion, because I am not selling you anything! Help your hungry neighbor if you want to give money to someone. You need to have a filtering process to beat the vig. You got to win more than you lose.

If you ever get the urge to bet on a hockey game, lay down till the urge passes.

If you hit a winning streak and get ahead a lot, consider taking your original bankroll off the table and playing with just the profits. As night follows day, a good winning streak can be followed by a bad one.

Watch for fishy lines in college basketball in small leagues, such as the Horizon League. If several casinos have this off the board and the line moves so that it crosses zero stay off the game or consider betting which way the money is flowing. It may turn into a very entertaining game to watch in the last two minutes.

Don't bet the board. Be very selective. Surround and pound! Scared money is no money. Less is more!

Don't do parlays. Bet one game at a time. Parlays are for losers. Never bet on a hockey game.

You can do teasers, but be very selective.

When you get burned out on gambling or don't feel you are up to your best game, take a few weeks or months off. Enjoy the profits. Travel the world or do something different. Life is short.

Football rule - Tattoo this rule on your arm: Buy the half point (the hook) either up or down depending whether you are on the favorite or the underdog when the line crosses 3, 4 or 7 and sometimes 10.

In the NFL, skip the game or play the other side when a home team opens up at -2 1/2.

Bet the favorites early and underdogs late, especially in a game that is getting a lot of action. Generally the public will be all over the favorite, driving up the price.

Reader comments may be deleted to eliminate spam or to protect the privacy of my readers. For awhile I was using the statcounter program to monitor traffic. That script has been removed from this blog and I now have no idea how many people now visit the blog or where they are coming from. The time I did monitor blog traffic helped show me what the blog readers were interested in.

For purposes of this blog, all handicappers and readers reside in Las Vegas (even though they may actually live somewhere else) and are regulars at the Mirage Sports Book.

This is not a hate or an expose site. This site is about making money and humor. I appreciate all the guest handicappers who make a periodic appearance here. Good luck to you all!
