Sorry guys, I have been away. Royal sent me a screen shot showing the 2nd wire of 6k going out. It should hit my bank shortly. I have taken out about 20 dimes from them - they do pay and are not a stiff book.
I lost big on the Sac ML today (was chasing a previous loss) and my Royal balance is now zero. I rolled the dice thinking Sac was due for a winning streak and making up a previous loss would be easy by betting the ML. I have made this stupid mistake multiple times in my betting career - it seems I never learn.
sportsmonitor, I really don't know how I make my money - I bet NBA, NFL, and MLB..I watch the games and bet on instinct. I like exploiting 2nd half situations - for example, Detroit +5 the other night versus Portland when Portland was extremely flat after a tough game the night before.
Even though I come out ahead, I don't keep good records and quickly forget my wins/losses since I am all over the place and exercise extremely poor money management.
More often than not, I do nail the big games which I bet with confidence, and go on nice streaks time to time. However, I lose more when I chase on a poor pick I shouldn't even be betting on. My biggest weakpoint is I have no patience and cannot wait till the next game to find a better bet.
I will be happy to post my picks when I spot good games.
