what a ride
today I had:
Titans +6 vs Ravens. BAL ties it at the end, so OT and I could get "push-ed" but TEN wins by 6
Eagles +3.5 vs Browns. Eagles lose by 5, as Browns collect 9 points on a pick-6, extra, point, and safety. #cmonman
Chargers -8.5 vs Jets. LAC leads by 12 in the red zone, mid-4th quarter against NYJ sorry D. but settle for a FG for 34-19. NYJ scores with 4 minutes left to 34-26. that's the rough final, except LAC took a safety in end zone on final play for 34-28. at least that didn't beat anyone's point spread.
Colts -1.5 vs Packers. GB 28-14 at half, but IND scores 17 straight and has the lead and the ball near midfield, under 3 minutes left. IND called for a hold on every play - they had 9 holding calls in the game (!). GB gets ball back after poor IND playcalling with almost 2 minutes left around their own 10. of course Rodgers marches down the field - even into the red zone - and they tie it. IND finally wins in OT.
2-3 with 5 "sweats."

Got slaughtered at 1 pm, losing three overs and a parlay. Made a comeback at 4 with the Cook/Zeke over 157.5 rushing yards, the over in the night game and the Carr/Mahomes over 4.5 TDs (which hit with 30 seconds left) to finish down about $10. I’ll take it.
Free $25 on DraftKings on Thursday. Even money up to $25 if either the Steelers or Ravens score a TD.

I'm seeing this: Bet the BAL-PIT game and get a free bet on that team to win the AFC North (big whoop, PIT is -5000 to win the division)

yes, also in NJ, I just collected - er, "risked" - the max $25 on either team scoring a TD.
that'll boost my pot to $277.50 - not bad off an original $25 investment!finished 10th in this 37th yr in 11-team-only NL 5x5

likely because Steelers are part of the bet - PA gamblers will take the "Steelers win division" as a mortal lock, yet leave DK a tiny window.
that's not as appealing outside the state, so they sweetened the pot.finished 10th in this 37th yr in 11-team-only NL 5x5

I need to stop with in-game betting. Never goes well.
Won the over in Hou-Det
Won the free bet of anyone scoring a TD in Was-Dal
Won Amari Cooper over 59.5 yards
Lost the in-game under in Hou-Det of 61.
Up about 40 on the day but should have been more.

won $25 on DAL-WAS game because TD
also on that OVER and HOU -3 in first game
have a $2 parlay of HOU+WAS+LAR win for odds-boosted $17.86 with just one leg to go.
and for some reason DK gave me a $10 free bet for the "inconvenience" of switching the easy money "either team scores a TD" from BAL-PIT to WAS-DAL.
this morning I put the free $10 on LAR as the spread dropped to 6.5 points. but now I am a little "overleveraged" on the Rams.
I get $26.26 if Rams cover on my $2 risk - but nothing on those two bets if they don't.
but $14 on Niners would get me $26.74.
so $16 risked, and I either make a profit of $10.26 if Rams cover - or $10.74 if Niners do.
should I even bother?
the hedge guarantees me a bankroll over $300 - or 12x my original and only "buy-in" 3 years ago.
this is free money if you are smart AND a cheap bastard.
whether you're up $200, $300, or $400 - that's where a combo of skill and luck come in.
(btw, a couple of professional gamblers have told me that the value play on "Free Bets" is longshots - you can never lose a nickel and you could win huge if, for example, a 50-to-1 golfers wins a tourney with your $10 free play. and if he's close down the stretch on a Sunday, you can clinch a half-share if there is a playoff for instance. It makes all the logical sense in the world. but I'm just hardwired to play it safe. maybe next time!)finished 10th in this 37th yr in 11-team-only NL 5x5
