I ran book for 4 years and never had a losing season. I used Vegas lines. I never changed my lines even on home team favorites. I ran a small book but if I had a everyone on one side then I would just lay some of the action off. When I became a bookie by my 2nd year I knew all the books on my side of town so laying off action was not a problem.
I use to run Parlay cards strong. I never had a losing week on them.
I had a hook up at a mall where I had all and I mean all the guys working there playing them. All of the security was playing them and even the shoes salesmen were on them.
My 4 years of booking was very successful and I had a small book. It became a full time job. I could not keep up and I had less than 20 players.
Now that I have been a player for 6 years I cant stay consistent in the pros. The last two weeks I have gotten destroyed. 2-5 yesterday and last week 3-7. So the last 2 weeks for me I am 5-12 in the NFL. The hardest thing for me to cap in the pros is rookie mistakes and penalties. Those change games.
Not sure what I could do better. Kinda confused on how to lay off action on parlays lol...
