    Default are you gonna bet differently this football season?

    like the saying goes...

    the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.

    Last year was my best year in the last 5 years. I bet less parlays and more straight bets and 2H bets. Slow and steady paid off big time.

    I love the payouts you get from parlays but they are so hard to hit. I will still do them but less of them.

    Perhaps, I will do more teasers this season?

    Any other new strategies?

    95% straight dogs.Very rarely a small favorite(under 3).
    No totals. Absolutely no parleys or teasers.
    Roughly 1-4 games a week (or none).
    Same unit for every play.
    Discipline = Reward .

    You are better than that.
    Show some restraint.

    Sorry JJ,
    Hope you survive the day .
    Either way, the sun will come up and tomorrow we all have a chance to show restraint and try to get it done , one winner at a time.
    Measure twice, cut once, right?
    GL to you.

    All year my days at work off have been Friday and Saturday. Three weeks ago I got some troubling news. I now have Monday, Tuesday as my days off for the near future. Business is good, they need the extra help on weekends. I will have less energy for football this season. I'm adjusting by playing fewer games, just no choice. It may be a blessing, we'll see.

    I believe teasers are profitable especially for NFL lines which are usually very sharp.

    Only totals and halftimes. Seems to be the only bets I can win steady in NFL, so I'm going to lay off sides/teasers this year.

    That's exactly what the books want you to think.
