Matchbook is the best one, but it's almost impossible to get money in there unfortunately.

Bookmaker.com is great because they come out with the lines first and you get to bet openers which move quite a bit from certain games (I had Wazzu +9 last week at open when they closed +5.5 and lost by 7. Turned a L into a W cuz i got it early)

I like 5dimes.com a ton, too, because they offer reduced juice the day of a game so you can bet -102 instead of -110's which will save you a ton in the long run

If anyone wants referrals let me know, but those two are really good places imo. The Greek is another one to look into, but I don't have an account with them so I don't know for sure. Their owner tends to shade his lines to whatever side he likes so sometimes you can get better lines than at other places if you like the other side of him...

I bet through betepic....but have a bookie that I actually drive to and give him the money every wednesday or collect every wednesday.

Corey I could look in and see if my book has a pay pal account, want me to check. He has never once in my two years been with him been late on a payment.

Sadly, I am at $25 because of my situation, but I much prefer $50 or, when times are good, $100.

so its not true?

they covered the game for all but the opening drive and the last second of the game.

if you had the Colts you'd be saying that you made the right call, no?

That Colts game was payback for the near miracle cover I got with Kent State.

i misunderstood, thought you were saying i mark close losses as wins or something crazy like that. My bad.

But yeah, I would argue it's a very bad beat and that the Colts was the right side that should have won because they really were in control. No clue how Tennessee mustered the offense after showning nothing for like the 10th straight quarter. The late scores that don't affect the game result (W or L) but hurt a pointspread are the absolute worst to deal with.

If I had Indy last night I think i would be hoping Vinatieri missed that FG so the defense would defend the goalline because it was the game, or if Fisher was smart and would kick the FG and try to get the onside kick, but of course neither happened.

Very tough beat for pac(ksy)man

how embarrassing are the redskins? :lol:

New York -4.5 (-107) vs. Miami
-Hate the short week, but the Jets were embarrassed and everyone saw it so get ready for them to come out and annihilate the Dolphins who probably aren't enjoying the cold right now.
St. Louis +9.5 (-106) @ New Orleans
-Rams pass rush is too good for the Saints to lay this kind of number especially considering how efficient the Rams are with the football.
