Default 3 - 0 This Weekend

Placed on Seahawks, Saints, and Vikings. I have changed my betting style to go for 100% SURE locks these upcoming weeks and I will be posting my list once BetUS gets all the games up.

Nothing is a 100% sure lock or it would not be called gambling. That's why they play the games.

So you are telling me the Seahawks vs the Cardinals with no wide receivers was not a lock?

No. It wasn't a lock. Simply because there is no such thing.

It was a very favorable bet (one that I also made myself. So, I liked it, as well.) But even very favorable bets lose a signifiant percentage of the time. That's why they call it gambling.

BTW, about your signature:
Brand New Better:
YTD - 7 - 2

Are you a Better or are you a Bettor? Or are you a Better Bettor? Just curious???

If the 'lock' word accomplishes anything, it is jinxing the people who were actually considering backing that particular side before you declare it to be such.

What a good idea, betting on teams you think will win! Damn why didn't I think of this earlier.

Dude, how fun is it to know you're going to win? The excitement for me is thinking I might be bankrupting the family by picking dangerously. You would have a bettor time, I can tell you that. Good luck though and hopefully I'll be the kind of better you are at some point. Maybe then my kids can eat.
