Derek Thursday – Sunday Investments

As the week has been going on I have been tweeting out my thoughts and moves that I have been making for this weekend's football action.  Below is a list where I have invested my money in.  I do attack aggressively for some, but my attacks are strategic and I don't put my money in spots where I don't expect a return on the moneyline.  I had some awful moneyline beats last week in football (Argos on Monday up 27-7 and San Diego on Sunday up 24-3, my only other ml move was with Rice and they got crushed), but I played the spot where I had a chance at a great return on investment according to my situational handicapping.  Today I have moved on one moneyline move correlated with the point spread.  If you don't like my correlated handicapping system I operate so be it, it's not for everyone.  It evolves strict money management, as you do have a chance at losing both, but that's why I am very particular where I use my correlated system and only move on spots where to me I have a greater probability from a situational handicapping prospective to win both.   Friday Update: Well the losing trend has continued as well as the second half collapses.  I am not upset about all the losses, I know this comes with the territory of this industry and if you are upset about a lose you are wagering too much of your bankroll.  I am not about to change how I attack games, but I am about to change my size of my wagers if things don't turn around quickly for myself.   2016 Total Overall Units +88.62 2015 Total [...]

Well what can I say about Saturday, nothing really, got beat bad.  That was the most money I've lost on a Saturday in 2 years.  NFL Sunday went a little better thanks in large to New England, but no thanks to the Chargers blowing a large lead, but I'm getting use to that so far this month.  It will not be the last time that will happen to me either, as I do not neglect the moneyline in certain situations.  I am going to continue to grind out this month and have put together a strong card tonight.  Good luck to all this Monday night!! 2016 Total Overall Units +99.32 2015 Total Overall Units 481-433 (52.6%) +197.09 Units DBB (Drock Best Bet) in BOLD 2016 – 107-88-3 (54.8%) +57.60 units September – 5-4 (55.5%) +3.0 units August – 6-7 (46.1%) -8.80 units July – 8-4 (66.6%) +15.07 units June – 8-11 (42.1%) +5.54 units May – 17-11 (60.7%) +16.58 units April – 16-11-2 (59.2%) +13.17 units March – 16-13 (55.1%) +11.51 units February – 17-11 (60.7%) +10.2 units January – 14-16-1 (46.8%) -12.16 units 2015 DBB– (138-121-4) overall (53.2%) +71.69 units 2014 DBB– (43-35-4) overall (54.5%) +38.23 units 10* GOY (all time) – 5-0-1 (100%) +50 units   2016 CFL: 14-14 (50%) +15.88 units 2016 CFB: 8-8 (50%) -1.94 units 2016 NFL: 3-2 (60%) +5.8 units Previous NFL & CFB seasons: NFL: 2013: 60-49 (55.04%) +15.78 units 2014: 61-41 (59.8%) +48.59 units 2015: 44-44 (50%) +16.86 units CFB: 2013: 61-51 (54.4) +13.55 units 2014: 55-55 (50%) +4.24 units 2015: 64-54 (54.2%) +28.18 units   NFL: Kickoff 7:10pm EDT GM 480 Washington Redskins +3 -120 (SB) risking $360 to win $300 GM 480 Redskins ml +120 [...]
