Saturday, October 9, 2004Red River ShootoutWell, Dallas is flooded with retards and morons. I'm willing to bet that half these people parading around here never even went to college. I just don't know who I hate worse the retards or the morons. Think the T-sips make a game out of it tomorrow but not going to bet on a team that has "Your my Daddy" syndrome that bad. Anyway, UNLV won the greased pig contest tonight. I think a couple of those kids had bet the under. I'm going to post a whole s-load of games. I bet these throughout the week so I got better lines on alot of these, and I may buy back alot of them. Will denote that if I plan on it. But for now going to put all of them up in case I can't post again. Minnesota +4 103 to win 100 Northwestern -105 51.50 to win 50 (May buy back) Illinois +7 115 to win 100 (Line move sucks, would buy back but with my luck I'll get middled.) Texas A&M -7 117 to win 100 (too many people on my ags, looking for a reason to buy back, but can't find one) Temple +14 115 to win 100 (possible buy back) Stanford +7 131 to win 100 (bought some points here, but definitely keeping this one,) Eastern Mich + 8 112 to win 100 LSU +3 50 to win 52 (Waiting to see what the steam does, possibility for a buy back, but prolly a keeper) California +7.5 157 to win 150. (This one is stupid, everybody loves one side or the other no middle ground.) Maryland -11 55 to win 50 (Should have bet more, Terps do a lot of runnin) No Illinois -17 -57 to win 50 (Bought this one looking to buy back, hoping for +20) Toledo -13.5 -121 to win 100 (Having second thoughts, if it hit's 14.5 may buy back half) Alabama -5 -162 to win 150 (Yeah I know, 3rd string quarterback. Let the punter play QB, all he has to do is hand off 60 times) Arkansas State +7 -109 to win 100(smells funny, but line move makes it more palatable) UL Lafayette pk -113 to win 100 (I have no idea how New Mexico State could win, but I'm sure they will) Played some teasers in order to make sure I lose money. I have to stop drinking. Here's a lesson about teasers. You cannot F...ing buy them back. You are stuck like chuck. 13 pt super tease Cal +20, No Ill -4, Toledo -1.5, Bama +8 260 to win 200 10 pt sort of super tease No Ill -7, Toledo -4.5, Bama + 5 100 to win 84 6 pt tease TexAM -1.5, Cal +13, NoIll -11,Toledo -8.5, Bama +1, UTEP +26.5 100 to 700 7pt tease Cal +14,NoIll -10, Toledo -7.5, Bama + 2, UTEP +27.5 100 to win 350 May bet UTEP straight, but lost serious value with the line move. Also trying to figure out the Ivies, but nothing as of now. Off to sleep like a freak. Go Natasha Go, Larry Chan posted @ 03:33 AM CST [link] Friday, October 8, 2004Hello Meester Robinson.Well don't know if I made a mistake or not as every time I bet one of these teams the consensus looks like they'll be on one team, and in the last hour, every Tom, Dick and Harry comes out saying they "LOVE" the team I already bet on. Which is more or less the curse of death. Anyway, Computer selection is the UNLV Rebels + 10. Just think this comes down to a field goal at the end. We'll see. Back Later UNLV +10 99 to win 90 Good luck biotches, Larry Chan posted @ 07:09 PM CST [link] Thursday, October 7, 2004Wahoo.Well computer likes Houston, but lots of injuries and the people smarter than me like So. Miss so a definite pass. The computer has the game basically at the line on Wahoo's and Clemson. Some the smart people are on Clemson and the under. I'll definitely be rooting for the Hoos though as they are my new second favorite team as the future Misses Chan went there. Either way no bets for me tonight. May have one tomorrow, and I'll probably post all of Saturday's games tomorrow, as I've already bet them and I'll be working all day Saturday. Good luck, Larry Chan posted @ 05:33 PM CST [link] Monday, October 4, 2004Monday Night Football6.5 point teaser Balt +0.5 and Over 34.5 110 to win 100 Suck it, Larry Chan posted @ 07:10 PM CST [link] Got the power back on. Well to review the day after reviewing boxscores and recaps. Not one of my better efforts. Computer didn't do so hot, and I compounded it by betting like a retard. She had some really strong plays and I bet them about the same as the plays I got from the Tarot cards, and the witchdoctor that lives next door. Game by game thoughts.... Penn State +15 108.00 to win 100.00 Decent Play, gave up a lot of yards on ground, but getting over two touches against a team with a good defense and good ground game is solid, as if they get up 14, they'll grind the clock and shorten the game. Never worried that a backdoor will put the game in jeopardy. Colorado State -2.5 160.00 to win 150.00 Can't really tell from box scores and recaps, except I effing lost. Oregon -2.5 185.00 to win 150.00 This was one of the worst bets of the day, played against some strong stats that Natasha gave out, not to mention that the -2.5 line was begging for Duck money. Ohio State/NorthWestern total over 45 118.00 to win 100.00 Solid Pick, but not sure the computer knows anything about totals though. Rice/San Jose State total points under 49.5 105.00 to win 100.00 Didn't know Rice and San Jose State had basketball teams that play this time of year. If I had only teased it with one of those 84 point teasers. Can't even explain this one with stats. UTEP -6.5 62.00 to win 50.00 My god, blowed out. Computer had UTEP but nothing like the outcome. If Price can stay out of the Mexican whorehouses, he might turn that program around. Tulsa +10.5 116.00 100.00 Got this one down early. Should have bought back when I received info that a very respected person bet on Hawaii in Vegas. North Texas 2nd Half +2 55 to win 50 Good play even though I almost lost, as Middle Tenn sucks goat balls. Listened to it on Internet and realized they no stop nada. Texas A&M 2nd Half -0.5 50 to win 50 Not a great bet even though it won. Miracle win actually. But Watching this one, realized K-state no good. Still not sold on A&M. UCLA -5.5 105 to win 100 One of the most solid plays of the week. Computer said UCLA would run it down Aztecs throats, and they did. Need to look into how to more easily recognize this situation. Ohio +14 128 to win 125 Couldn't believe it when the computer spit it out. But it actually had Ohio outright. It's spit out plays like this before, with small college teams against major conference teams, and I guess I got my ass kicked too many times as I didn't believe it. On just numbers I should have sold everything I owned to bet on OHIO, but Kentucky gave the game away with Turnovers and penalties. Middle Tenn +3 105 to win 100 Almost won, actually should have won, but still need to look as to why the computer had Middle Tenn able to stop North Texas, because it didn't happen. UAB + 3 107 to win 100 Umm, Computer was wrong, as it had UAB winning by about 15 to 20. When in reality I should have lost. Cinci almost double the yards of UAB. ucla -3 1st half 52 to win 50 See UCLA game above. Ohio +7 1st half 52 to win 50 See Ohio Game above Middle ten + 1 1st HF 54 to win 50 See MT game above. Uab + 0.5 1st Hf 52 to win 50 See UAB game above. Buffalo +7.5 124 to win 100 Computer had it about an even game, so 7.5 was decent. The 10 at the beginning of the week would have been better. The fact that it was Buffalo, they were under 14 point underdogs, and the line was moving towards Buffalo tells you enough that somebody knew something. Washington +14.5 210 to win 200 Well got a win, thanks to the late move above 14 as the books were getting hammered. So should have lost this one. Computer had washington keeping it within the number, which I don't understand. But the Books got hammered with Stanford money all week at 10,10.5,11,12,13,13.5. Then guys like me get Washington at 14.5. The books must have lost a mint on this one. Wash ML +553 20 to win 110 Umm terrible. LSU +3 106 to win 100 Dear computer, what are you thinking. Ass kicking please. UTAH ST over 38 105 to win 100 Well even though, I have lost a lot of confidence in Natasha's ability to prognosticate totals, this one was way off. Easy winner, should have bet more. Texas Tech +28 108 to win 100 Well betting this line early sure helped. But the buy back made it into a very small profit. Oklahoma -25 78 to win 75 Public consensus numbers pushed me to buy back most of the above bet. Shouldn't have, especially since some the pros were betting Texas Tech. But just wasn't convinced. Purdue -2 107 to win 100 Probably the second best play the computer had. Scared me a little with a lot of people on Purdue, but you have to know any time you're betting against ND you're getting some value. Florida State under 52 60 to win 60 Not if it was that bad, but need to look into punters before betting over/under. As NC's punter is a hack. Wrong team to have the hack if you are betting the under. Wake/NC State under 44 50 to win 50 Whaat? Whaat? Okayyyy? Two solid punters, one more loss. Michigan State +7.5 85 to win 75 Well the computer had it even, and the yards were even, however the score wasn't. Never should have bet against a team with that big a completion percentage advantage. Michigan State/Iowa Under 41 54 to win 50 Ditto on the completion percentage thing. Arkansas +7.5 76 to win 75 Dear Vegas, thank you for inviting me to bet on Arkansas with such an inviting line. Dear, Larry Please read your computer print outs. Several numbers favored Florida. Rutgers + 7 120 to win 100 Good bet, terrible ending. Must go piss in light socket again. Baylor/T-sips Under 55.5 52 to win 50 Not a terrible bet, just a bad bet. You know Mack Brown is a penis envy little bastich that will run up the score every time he gets a chance. Virginia Tech -3 113 to win 100 Solid bet by Natasha. Without the computer, never would have guessed. But not only do I have a computer, I can waste 3/4 of my life programming it to gamble. Illinois +15 104 to win 100 Ugh. Who knows if it was good or bad. Bad because it lost, should have known as too many people on Illinois. Hard to cover when you can't score Houston +14 46 to win 40 Kicked in the Ding Ding. Please respect those who know more than you. I was warned about this one. UL Monroe 163 to win 150 Computer had this all wrong. But playing that much on a freaking SBC that never leaves f..ing louisianna or texas, get's to fly across the country to play at the highest elevation stadium in the nation, against a team the computer said was going to get over 5.0 YPC. Brilliant!!! New Mexico + 10 127 to win 120 Well no need to get into this, except to say, that more squares (like me) were on this than I could have imagined. New Mexico ML + 350 20 to win 70 Probably not going to win the ML if you can't get inside 10 points. Navy +2 Good bet, just shows how tough to win on the road in a big rivalry game is. Miami Ohio +7 99 to win 90 Insert penis into light socket please. For a fabulous day of 18-22 for -395 Beginning Bankroll 3521.84 Week from Hell 18-22 -395 Ending Bankroll 3126.84 Just by doing what the computer told me, and staying off a couple of games that I had tips on I could have gotten the day to almost break even. Hell if I would have skipped most of the totals I would have made money. Just going to classify this week in Larry Chan betting lore in the chapter titled Dumbass.
