Casual Betting

[fighting69th]

Hey all I have been lurking on this forum for a couple of weeks and it is extremely insightful. Lots' of good picks and views. I intend to start posting my picks throughout the week for Collge FB and I will hopefully be able to help out with input about the games and picks.

I am a extremely casual bettor and only spend $20 a week. My goal is to establish decent picks to win small amounts for the people who dont have the bankroll to go large. I love watching the games and having a little action on it makes the experience better, especially if I can sustain my bankroll and even make a couple of bucks. I will feature small parlay picks, a dog of the week and big spread pick of the week. I dont claim to have any inside info or and more insight to the games than anyone else but I hope this spin will be helpful for budget bettors. Keep an eye out for my Casual Picks coming this week.

Take care all

I never really found the attraction of sports betting over the internet just because of how easy it is. I lived in Vegas for 5 years and if I had let's say a small 3 team parlal lose early, I would have to get in my car and go back to the casino. Not so over the internet. A new play is just a click away and maintaining discipline is key to keeping the betting fun. I won't ever get the rush of betting a dime on a game so I figure, why not just play small, enjoy the games, and not lose any sleep?

Like I said I don't have any info that no one else in this forum can't access or provide, just trying to establish a fun alternative to the budget gamblers who don't play small because of the sheer fact that there is no big payout. If I put $5 on a game to win me $8.55 I am happy. I see it as, me just getting good practice before I can start laying some serious cash..lol, wishful thinking.

GL to you man.. this is the right approach to take when trying to get into a new hobby such as betting on sports.

I basically did the same thing as I had less time to play poker once I got a full time job.. moved a bunch of money to a few different books and learned most lessons the hard way.

You can learn just as easily betting $5 on a game as you can $5,000

Much moreso then in Poker where playing .25/.50 tables non stop wont really help you grow as a player.

Anywho, Good Luck

Nice honest blog you got. So often people like to just brag about their wins and don't say a word for losses. Hey I understand no one will ever be perfect and anything can happen in sports but I have just never been into gloating about it when I win or pick winners. Leave that for Scott Ferrall. I swear every time I pick a lock of his it flat out loses lol...Loved the explanation about home dogs and for me, the NFL is just a crapshoot. College a bit more predictable in my eyes.

Keep up the good work!
