 I might as well do it too. Looks like we have a very wide range of experience here. I would be at the very inexperienced end of the spectrum. I will be placing all of my bets at a B&M sportsbook here in Las Vegas. My strategy is to bet ML on multiple games and always bet the underdog. I will also play two 4 team parlays each week (more if I think I've found a big edge). These are my week 4 sports pick, you will notice I will mix it up between NCAA and NFL. A unit for me is going to be $25

OK, one line bet, this one is toooo easy
Texas Tech +2 (-110) at Texas A&M for 4 units
--some background, both my folks went to Aggieland, I am a huge A&M fan (altho I did not attend) and I want A&M to win badly. HOWEVER, A&M's pass defense is soooo horrible this pick is pretty much a given, might even call it my lock of the week. Even the 12th man cannot help this week.

I will be ML the following teams for 1 unit each
Balt
NE
--I'll prolly add a few more once the lines are set, but for now Im definitely going to take these 2.

These will be my 4 teamers for 1 unit each

Card 1:
MIA
Jacksonville
NO
STL

Card 2:
MIA
Jacksonville
NE
OAK

So, i will have 8 units up for grabs, I am a bit of a gambler. Good luck to everyone.

 Well, I didn't end up doing these planned bets, in the end I put 8 units on the ML for TTU at +130

That means i won a little over 10 units on that one.

Unfortunately that's where the fun ends

I ended up playing 3 parlays, losing eachb/c of the Jacksonville game each was .4/unit

I then put a unit on 4 straight bets which were these:
Indy -8
Jacksonville -3
SEA +3.5
MIA -4

All in all I lost about 5 units after my nice 10 unit win.

Ehh, could have been a huge Sunday and it ended up being a pretty sour one. Watching Santana Moss sprint away w/ my money hurt big time.

YTD record: +8 units

This week I will dabbling in teasers as well as looking for that one good ML underdog. The search will begin Tues. morning. I am now 2/2 on these.
