Tried to post last night, but wouldn't let me.

Had a huge night.

Minnesota +3 (win)
Louisville -19 (win)
UCLA +6.5 (win)
UCLA ML (win)
Minnesota ML (win)
Arizona -20 (win)

Parlay:
Minnesota +3, Louisville -19, UCLA +6.5 (win)
UCLA ML, Minnesota ML, Minnesota +1.5 1st half (win)

Over 300$ won right there. But then I got greedy on the Aussie open and went 2-4 on those bets. But only lost 50$. Very good night which gives me a lot of extra money for the NFL this weekend.

Pats/49ers money line parlay would pay out 6-1...in case anyone wants to get in on that action.

I put $25 down on UMass -5 at Elon. Other than that, I really didn't do anything today. Didn't like anything, really.

Tomorrow, I like Seahawks and Broncos each ML. Will probably parlay it. The 6-to-1 pay out is nice, but I don't see both dogs winning.

Put 10$ on Federer yesterday -9 and won. Let it ride with Tomas Byrdych -8.5 and won. Let that ride with Tottenham ML (which was +117 and the spread was pick for -130...weird) and won. Gonna let it ride on Broncos today, probably
ML and if I win be happy I turned 10 into about 160$ in a day and half.

Took Denver and Seattle each ML as part of a parlay. If both underdogs win, then so be it. But I just don't believe there's any way Peyton Manning is letting this one slip from his fingers.

Right now I have Southern Methodist -18 over Hofstra and then need Seattle to finish off my NFL parlay from earlier.

May do something in the Oregon-Oregon State game as well later. That's the last game of the night at 8 p.m, aside from NBA which I refuse to bet anymore.

I'm going to jump on Oregon. No way they lose 4 straight, they're way too talented to lose to Oregon State but anything could happen.

That was my logic on that one as well, but with it being a rivalry game, who knows. While Oregon is the more talented team, the Beavers have been fairly competitive this season.

Seattle is really pissing me off right now -- not so much that they're losing, because San Francisco is a good team, but because the Seahawks didn't even show up tonight -- so I want to win something tonight. Let's go Ducks. Took Oregon -3.

Yeah, Oregon is my first really bad bet in awhile. It was a mistake on my part to bet while mad. If you look at Oregon State's recent track record, while the results aren't there so much in terms of overall record, they've given some really good teams all they wanted, and this one tonight is at home.

The more I watch Oregon, the less impressed I am. This team might not even get into the NCAAs. They are either on from the field or they are nothing. Frankly, they kinda suck.

Good day overall. Hit my NFL parlay and on SMU -18.

Going to lose my Oregon bet, but only put $12 to win $10 on that one, so it's whatever. After watching Oregon closely for the second time tonight, I now know not to bet on them moving forward -- an ensemble of individuals that operates like an All-Star team is not a good bet on the road against competitive teams that play together. So I look at that information as a positive.

Have you bet anymore tennis recently, Laley? I took Federer early this morning at -140 and made $20 on it. Should've went in big on that one, I knew it. Oh well. I didn't watch and would've been pissed to wake up to a big loss. Thinking about parlaying Li Na and Ivanovic tonight, but not sure.

As for basketball, not particularly fond of tonight's choices.

And North Carolina +7.5.

Had a really good feeling about Creighton tonight, and right now I am hating myself for packaging that pick with Carolina. Fuck. I'm not rooting for my money in that game anyway, so that makes it even worse. I am baffled that the Heels are on the verge of falling to 1-4 in the ACC. I do not get it at all. There's a lot of talent there.

I will probably lay the points on Kansas. Baylor is just like Oregon. All-stars playing divisively, except even worse coaching.

Haha, Baylor was 10 of its last 40 from three-point range heading into the Kansas game tonight. Of course, they are 7-of-8 from beyond the arc tonight. And Isaiah Austin is two-of-two. Kid had one triple all year through last week.

When things go wrong, they really go wrong.

Kansas outperforming Baylor in every aspect of the game except for the three-point shot, which is not a strong suit of Baylor's. The Bears made a combined 10 threes in their last two games, shooting 25%. They already have 9 threes at the half in 12 attempts. For crissakes, Baylor. As if I didn't hate Scott Drew enough already.

If Baylor cools off from downtown, KU should easily win by doubles. But I envision that Canadian bastard coming out raining balls.

Edit: Talking about Heslip, not Wiggins lol

Hit on:
Creighton +6.5
Virginia -7
OSU/Nebraska U -132
Kansas/Baylor 0 142 (Pending)

Lost: OSU -7

Rec, I made some money last night on tennis. Ill lay some money in a second for tonight. Never bet Ivanonovic though. She and Wozniacki always lose when they should win. Always.

Just took:
David Ferrer +3
Stan Wawrinka +6.5
Ferrer/Byrdych O 41
Wawrinka/Djockovic O 36.5

Parlay:
Ferrer +3
Joker/Wawrinka O 36.5


EDIT: I expect both matches to go 4 sets, and Ferrer/Byrdych to go 5.
