FRIDAY: 22 DIME LOSS ON THE CLEVELAND CAVALIERS + 5 AT HOME AGAINST THE CHICAGO BULLS IN A HORRIBLE PICK

Horrible pick on the Cavs tonight. The Bulls are 14-3 now this season, they are the best team in the NBA now. I lost 2.2% of the bankroll. This was a terrible pick, no question about that. Cavs looked awful. I lost this game by 34 points against the spread. Its a wake in Cleveland, you got to feel for head coach Byron Scott and the fans. Coach Scott was wondering where their heart was tonight. This was the worst point loss at home in Cavaliers history.

Total profit since this blog started and today's beginning balance: $93,699

Bet per dime: ($93,699 divided by 1,000 units) times 1.1 = $103.07

MacMiller: You are discovering the power of the Lang jinx. The Mavs got to their hotel room at 3 AM after a tough road game. Even the commentators in Dallas were skeptical of the Mavs playing well at the high altitude of Salt Lake City. But no one mentioned the key factor in the game, other than the big German. Brandon Lang was on the Jazz, LOL.

Let's go CAVS! Good luck tonight. What are you thinking Mac, just blind follow. Tailing is an art. Look at the bank roll, I think he knows what he is doing. LOL! He keeps saying he's due for a regression but I haven't seen it yet. Just because you're aware of it is what makes the difference.

No they are just links. I would recommend just fading Brandon Lang. I don't know enough about the other cappers. Indian Cowboy is very up and down as he tries to cap all sports. I am just going to go back to pretty much fading Lang on this site as it has made me the most money. I am removing the SBR Sports Forum link as they read my personal messages and gave me an infraction after I answered someones PM there. I don't like people reading my mail so I have just removed their link and will no longer be posting on that site. I once thought they were the cats meow but I was wrong.

pepper i think you should look more into betting the other side of the public, i think on any game the public % is 80% or more, theres a strong chance of the other team winning! i think it hits close to 65% i may be wrong, you have more experience then i do! what you think?

Shaneel: I think you are right. I am a little off my stride right now, and will just be fading Lang in the near future as he has consistently won me the most money. Should be an interesting weekend! It was fun listening to Cleveland sports radio last night, one gentlemen called and said the Cavs players should be fired and they were all sons of a bitches, lol. They promptly hung up on that caller. Good luck today, lets see what the Langster has.

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.
