When you have a 10 point lead and they kick the FG 1st and then get the onsides kick. Something is telling me to give this shit up. If Nevada gets the onside kick it's all over with. UCF had no timeouts left. This has been a bad year and the last 2 wagers I made the wrong move, by not following my 1st thought. Last night my 1st thought was to tease Kansas and the UNDER and I would have hit it, but no I had to change my mind and do the parlay and instead of winning 2 units I lost 2.30* and tonight my 1st thought was to bet the OVER Straight and and then do the parlay. So what did I do I bet Nevada instead of the OVER straight. I am not funding anymore accounts this year, If I get lucky and win the LAST MAN STANDING(or at least half of the $1,500.00) at this forum I will bet some more. If not I'll see you guys next year!!!!

Nick I see a lot of your post and I am noticing that your wagers are normally 2 units or more. I believe money management is the key. Have you ever considered playing everything 1 unit? If you win, thats good and your up 1 unit. If you lose it still is not good, but your only down 1 instead of 2 or 3. Its your call, but betting several units can be deadly if they do not hit.

I feel your pain man. I had Nevada -3 but I also had 10* on the 2nd half under 35.5. I thought that it was golden til Nevada let them cover the onside kick and let a WR walk into the endzone with :56 left in the game.

I know that I am going to have bad beats, just like in poker, but I feel I had the correct side/wager and have to move on. I'm sure that their are people out there thinking that they capped the game right by taking Central Florida, and they would be fooling themselves.

Wig, I have wagered like this all my life some 40 yerars. I can't change after 40 years and before I would bet 1 unit on a game I did what I did, QUIT. I thought about betting 1 unit and I said, if I did start betting 1 unit I would win and be pissed because, I could never get any of my losses back by betting 1*.

Thanks for the Idea though.
