I'd bled down from 500 to 300 on a bad run, but there is one line I love today. So I decided I'm sick of the small bankroll, and it's all or nothing... First a couple parlays, I'll get to them in a second...

GT -5 @ Miami 253/230

Miami is terrible, I mean AWFUL. GT is a top 15 team IMO.. GT is young, yes.. But Miami's upperclassmen are two of their worst players from some of the numbers/analysis I've seen. They lost to Northwestern, Buffalo, and Cleveland State.. Not the calibre of opponents you lose to and then expect to go hang with Georgia Tech. In fact, Cleveland St. lost by 25 to a good Butler team that should be a 5-6 point dog to GT.. But Cleveland St also beat Miami by 11.. So trying to use that as some sort of guage to back up my personal opinion.. GT by double digits.

Eastern Washington/Cal State - Northridge o169.5 20/18

A poster on sports betting forum who is 24-8 on totals posts it up as a very good play. He gave a good write up - and that's good enough for me. Especially today when I'm going big or bust.

Now the real fun, the parlays...

$25/$287.50
GT - 5 @ Miami
Missouri -8.5 vs Evansville
NC State +9.5 at UVA
Eastern Wsh/CS-Northridge o169.5

And..

$10/$357.50
GT -5
Missouri -8.5
NC State ML
EW/CS-Northridge 0169.5

So I could be anywhere from busto to having a $1200 sportsbetting bankroll. Just hoping to hit the $500 mark again by hitting the two straight bets, but I liked those parlays so I took a shot.

Here's to doing it the public/square/sucker bet way for a day.

This really isn't a wisecrack:

I hope you learned something from this.

I learned that Georgia Tech sucks. And that when pondering an 80 unit bet, a cashout is in order.
