NFL preseason over/under betting challenge

Lathum · 08-11-2006, 10:31 AM

So I decided to do my first dynasty thread. It seems to me that alot of NFL preseason games don't generate alot of points. Players not familiar with the system, players not wanting to get hurt, etc...

I've decided to bet $20 on the under on every preseason game and hope to finish ahead.

I've decided to post each day my results and current bankroll. If I go bust or hit a long losing streak I may abandon my endevor. Feel frfee to follow along.

Started with the hall of fame game. Bet $22 to win $20 on an under of 36. 26 total points scored so I start off on the right foot.

Account balance $44.00

Lathum · 08-11-2006, 10:41 AM

8/10

Two games on tap. Philly vs. Cleveland +/- 36-, bet $24 to win $20
Indy vs. St. Louis +/- 38, bet $24 to win $20

I was a little nervous about the indy game, especially since they were at 29 first half points but I dodged a bullet with only one second half TD.

Won both bets

Account balance $136.47
