The only sports betting I do is these weekly "football pools" or whatever that we do at work.

Basically there's a bingo board, and each square is $3. Then numbers 1-10 are randomly drawn and make a grid around the board. If the last number of each team's score matches your spot on the grid, you win. $50 for half time score,  $75 for final score

I'll play a few of these per year, never had any luck on em though always get shit numbers. With the way my "informed" sports betting going this year (I say year like its a new year or something, but I typically only bet on soccer and NFL so yeah) I should consider doing more pools. Also in a 12 man fantasy football league that had a $20 buy-in. More of a long term bet but winner takes all.

Anyone have any experience with those 'week-to-week' fantasy leagues you see advertised during football games? looks interesting but theres probably a catch in there somewhere. Well there's always a catch in gambling lol but you know what i mean.

so I was betting baseball earlier in the year but once I stopped following the stats/tables and just the wins and losses I started to falter but overall I'm definitely UP.

I'm just basically posting this because I might divulge some autism soon and explain how to bet on baseball using sabremetrics and the latest in autistic math. Fuck, I kinda want to right now but I've got a buncha shit to do on comp right now and I can't get my head in that frame while doing this other stuff so SUBD

ya man, I've taken economics courses and read a book since so I've got some more knowledge. When I have the time I'll get autistic with it and break out the excel spreadsheets and everything
