Smart Betting - don't bet on weekends

Well after winning money in all five days last week, I came down negative units both Saturday (-185) and Sunday (-220). The point of this post is give one betting tip: Never bet just to bet. I titled this post "don't bet on weekends", but that mainly just applies to me. I am a man of dillegent research and statistics, and that takes both time and effort. After a night full of partying and little to no sleep, research at 9am is not ideal. There is no point betting on a game if you have not done enough research on it, and I am guilty sometimes of doing just that. Not that I didn't research stats for the games posted on Saturday (I did), but I just want to reiterate the point of gambling - Take calculated risks, that give you the best chance to win money. If you want to put your faith on a 50-50 coin flip, that is a sure-fire way to lose money in the long-run.

Tough game last night, as I recommend the Red Sox-Yankees Under 10.5, only to see the final be 9-2, losing by 0.5 a run. Once again, even though I lost the bet, I am happy with my logic.

Back to well-researched, full of statistical tidbit research for the week...
