another idiot dumping all his money on ridiculous favorite lines, the bookie is sitting there and saying to himself, I can't beleive I got to make these favorites so big cause of all the morons who have no problems laying 9, 10, 14 to teams in the playoffs. Keep betting your favs and see how far that will take you in sportsbetting. don't mean to be harsh but just the title of your thread sounds so square i had to give you a reply. Go ahead and hammer against san diego -14.5 samrty pants and give up 7 to the giants. remeber all the line means is what the bookie thinks he will get equal action on both sides, and since 90% of idiots bet the favorites that should tell you the value in big games is almost always on the underdog.
Harrington - I see what you play everyweek and you are definitley good at picking who is going to win the game. With that said, stop chasing man. You are smarter than that - over time it will just mathematically kill you. Set up a system, and bet plays on according to how strong they are, not according to how much you've won/lost.
Picking the winners may be the hardest part of gambling. However, money management is more important.
BOL this week Harrington.

I've been doing this for 20 years and I'm telling you, that good sound chasing is very ok to do. I know you've been around the block and understand the game. Completely blow off what happen today, theirs a couple more games.
20 years under your belt and THIS is what you got for the lad? By definition chasing is a negative term. It's like saying a good sound molesting is very ok to do.
And the dude shouldn't completely blow it off, he should learn from it and avoid repeating the same mistake in the future.
There's bad advice and then there's horrible advice and then there's this post.
I'm a chaser too
I read through this post and thought I'd tell my story.
I was chasing in that game as well. I'd lost most of my money on an Indy teaser, and I put all my money minus $200 which was $800 on the Giants money line.
I've done stupid things like this before and most of the time I have lost. But after Indy lost that game I was so infuriated I just unloaded my account on the Giants Money line.
After the 11 minute drive and the go ahead touchdown my stomach felt sick and my head started hurting. I thought I had done it again. What a fucking degenerate.
Well we all know the rest of the story and I dodged a big bullet.
Even after the win I felt sick and every time I thought about the consequences of what would have happened if I'd lost it gave me a chill.
I won and I am happy I won, but chasing is bitch.
I'm sorry we all can't be winners here.
Hopefully nobody did anything too outrageous this weekend.
For Sunday I'm Teasing down Green Bay to a pick and New England to -7.
Good Luck guys, and be careful.

A few things to clear up. I loved both those games so I wouldn't call it a classic chase situation. I'm used to winning and losing large sums of money as I have been doing so for close to 35 years now. Last year was the best year of my life money wise and lets just say the money I lost Sunday was not a big deal for me. I was up 5.7k on the playoff games going into Sunday. I met with my contact yesterday and paid him 3.3k as I usually square up every few weeks. I do understand that playing favorites consistently is probably not the best idea, but I liked Indy and I liked Dallas and they lost and that's the way it goes. I'll be back soon boys but right now I'm burned out and need to shut it down for a bit. Good luck guys and remember don't ever risk money on gambling that you can't afford to lose.

Thanks son for the advise but gambling has been very good to The Harrington family through the years.
Buddy, you are a complete moron!!!! First off, Harrington is veteran at this. I wouldn't tell some rookie to do this, because they will lose there shirt. Secondly, if you don't just blow it off, you will play scared to death you idiot!! Yes, I have been doing this for 20+ years and yes that is my advise for him. Plenty of other cats have lost there shirts here, but you don't see me telling them to double up. YOU PLAY SCARED IN THIS GAME AND YOU DIE. IT'S AS SIMPLE AS THAT!! If you don't under stand the game then get out. I've been there and done that. I'm telling you what should be done by someone who is capable of winning and has the money to do so. Thirdly, how many gamblers you know of that actually quit. Usually, they don't, so the best thing to do is BLOW IT OFF and regroup. The longer it takes to blow it off, the longer it takes to win again. And by the way, I said GOOD SOUND CHASING, MEANING DONT JUST PICK ANY FAVORITE DICK!! If you want to see what good chasing is, then you can go back and check all of my plays and you will figure it out dick.
Good Luck to you Harrington (sorry about this thread)
Listen Miss, I didn't mean to get you all upset and sqawking...all I said was you gave bad advice, which you did, and you're either too stupid or too much of a hot head red neck to realize it...or a better guess, by the way you write like a woman who just got her feelings hurt, is that you're too suborn to admit it. Hell, maybe you are a chick.
I simply disagreed on the two points you made 1) people shouldn't make make, quick, emotional bets over extending themselves in order to try and recover quickly from a bad beat. It happens SO much, they gave it a name...chasing. Now I realize we won't find "chasing" in Websters but as a slang term in gambling, it's a negative thing to do...there's nothing "good and sound" about it - that doesn't even make any sence. And I'm sorry to break it to you Miss, but you're wrong in saying so and all the bold type, panties-in-a-wad ranting in your trailer park world isn't gonna make you right.
Harrington even said in a later post that he LIKED the bet so it wasn't really chasing. He understands the jargon of the game.
On the 2nd thing, after reading your cliche driven crap about "not playing scared" and "just blowing it off", I realized I took your comment the wrong way - you meant don't let it get to you (which I agree with) and I was saying learn from your mistakes (which lI hope you even understand).
I've seen Harrington around for years and think he's a good solid Rx'er - I like his style. And I read MUCH more than I post unless I see some blowhard bragging about his years in the game, and giving bad - in your case, stupid advice - then I chime in, which is kinda the way this whole public post things works.
(and when you reply, I suggest you increase the font size another notch - it makes your words seem...um...bigger)
