Floyd is a -1300 betting favorite

[The Gambler1981]

Ok. Now i definitely get it. So bet when the lines are looking as profitable as you think they'll be?

Exactly, although it is hard to predict the exact right moment to bet it takes a long time to get that sort of feel.

My advice...read up on what you're doing before you bet.
Don't want to make any mistakes and lose your money.
You planning on vegas or online?

Online. My buddy showed me a few sites, but they charge you 50 up front. Then some other things that look risky. Something about picking up your money at a Western Union within 24 hours. I don't fully trust that.

Nice. Thanks for teaching me the basics. Do you bet on most big fights?

The odds should be even farther. The fight is a mismatch. Only on Showtime!

True. Wouldn't be fun betting on Floyd. You'd have to put down a good amount to even make it worth while.

It never is. If Canelo gets past trout, you might get Floyd at -400 or -300.

Actually I don't, I am real patient and usually bet when I think the odds are nicely in my favor.

I used to bet way more often and learned some hard lessons, but those lessons allow me to make much more than I lose currently.

You definitely know your stuff. You usually bet on the under dog, or the favorite?

I use 5dimes... lots of options and pretty reliable.
What you're talking about is the deposit method. Minimum 100 bucks and fairly speedy.

Well in terms of money I bet more on favorites, because I bet big when a favorite is not as big a favorite as they should be. That doesn't happen all that often though.

In terms of number of bets I bet on more underdogs
