Sup Sleep,
I hope you're well and enjoying a hugely profitable wagering week!!!....;o)
Tough loss on that "Over" selection last night. (As I'm sure I echo the prevailing sentiment amongst those who followed you last night)..., No one in their "right" mind saw THAT one coming in like a freight train!!!...CC Sabathia hurling seven innings of shut out baseball (scattering just 6 hits, striking out 6...SERIOUSLY?!?!)...
As was the case numerous times over the past 2 weeks or so, a Premium, 3* Totals play that didn't quite make the #... I'm sure this fiery, contentious topic has been (& always will be) debated in these circles...TOTALS plays....
Personally speaking, over the course of my wagering life I've lost more $ (BY FAR)playing Totals, than I have utilizing any other wagering vehicle. Over the years, after suffering the heartache that often ensues following a loss, I made a pact with myself that I would never play Totals (regardless the sport) again. To this day, I remain steadfast.....
I've never understood why some people prefer Totals rather than Sides.... The ultimate outcome of a Totals play is predicated on such "uncertainty,"....that variance is ALWAYS present (more so than Side plays) and, consequently, many fail to bring home the bacon. Here at PG (over the past week or so), I witnessed several losing Totals plays (plays labeled as "PREMIUM, 3* selections!!)....I'm sure many are exasperated, to say the least....
Would love to hear your thoughts (& anyone who'd like to engage in an extremely helpful/educational dialogue regarding this important subject).....
Thanks All!!!
