I'll actually take it a step further and say that I won't put a huge wager on a game unless I can watch it.

Although I make certain everything I want to watch is "televised" these days anyway, so that's kind of a moot point.


No doubt you are kidding. Cause otherwise this statement is beyond frightening.


Right now I have a dime on the Giants RL and you couldn't pay me to watch it.



If you have bet many SF Giants runlines in the last few years..... you are no doubt a nervous wreck.

Im watching the Mets right now, don't ever bet more than 1% of my bankroll so i never really get a rush, or the nerves out of it. The only game I bet really big is the Superbowl, but that's because I save up what ever roll over comps I have at William Hill and throw it all on the Superbowl.

Nope not kidding. If I have a large wager on something I find a way to watch it. I have every package anyway so it's not exactly difficult.

If that frightens you I'd be willing to wager you've been drawing social security for decades.

I get all the packages too, and in case of the occasional black out, I got Scott Carter. In this day and age there's no reason to bet a game just because you want to watch it, because you can watch them all.

MikeB will not like that you got Scott Carter, he's very jealous

I know. Betting SF RL's just isn't a smart bet. I don't know what the hell I was thinking.

The chances of SF wining by 2 at this stage in the game is about slim to none. They aren't exactly an offensive power house.

I've gotta watch it.

I like to see how the team is playing as much as just the score

I must be in the minority. I never watch games I have a lot of money on. I think it's because I don't want to deal with the swings. I would much rather check the score every 20-30 minutes. Now if it's in the 7th and I'm up considerable runs I will watch. Or if a total is well within range of what I took I will watch. I.e. 3-2 in the 4th and I have Over 7.5.

I do the same thing! Would rather not be stressed by the swings, especially in hoops.

For the most part I watch games I have a lot of money on but there's been a few times I've had to go out with the wife and her friends or my boys to the club or a party and of course no games were on.
