RED ZONE

The Red Zone is a great channel for all fantasy and compulsive gamblers. This channel is provided by Direct TV and Time Warner.

The Red Zone is a channel presented by the NFL Network that shows when a team has reached the 20 yard line.

The Red Zone cuts from a games when there are timeouts being called or any stop in the action this channel is great.

The Red Zone starts at 10:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. with no commercials or interruptions just a live feed to any game that will or has scored most recently.

This channel provides great information for fantasy players showing each player that has scored and updating on the bottom the top fantasy players for the day.

This channel also provides great information for gamblers in general knowing up to date scores.

In my opinion this channel the Red Zone is great and creates entertainment and up to date scoring for the average fan.



 

When watching on TV this is what it looks like with 8 different games going on at all times

Monday Night Football Dallas Cowboys vs. Chicago Bears



The NFL posts lines on every game played during the week.

Knowing the spread can tell you what to look for in a certain game.

When gambling you are always depending on somebody either a player, coach, or Vegas.

Knowing the spread tells you how many points a team will win or lose by.

For example Tonight on Monday Football the Dallas Cowboys are 6 point favorites over the Chicago Bears . Even Though the Bears are at home.

This is what is known as a trap game.

Betting on Dallas is the smart play on the money line. But Dallas being Dallas are known for chocking and loosing in December. The Cowboys have made the Playoffs once in the last fifth teen years. This team is unreliable and in my opinion I would stay away from this game.

The predictability of Dallas is to great to put money on.


Maybe everything isn't big in Texas


Just a disappointment

Picking winners this Thanksgiving

On Thanksgiving every year there are football games played one in the morning, afternoon, and night.

The morning game this Thanksgiving is the Detroit Lions vs. the Green Bay Packers.

Detroit is favored by -6 points and they are at home. What a nice start to Thanksgiving a game set-up on a tee nice and early.

Detroit is going to cover big. Because Matthew Stafford is the second best quarterback in the league in  passing behind Peyton Manning. Another reason Detroit will win big is because Green Bay has no quarterback at all Aaron Rodgers is out. Matt Flynn? I don't think so.

The afternoon game this Thanksgiving is the Dallas Cowboy vs. the Oakland Raiders.

Dallas is favored by -9.5 points and they are at home. Wow 9.5 points is a lot but Oakland is terrible on the road. But I don't think Dallas is going to cover. I do think they are going to win but not by 10 points.

Because when its a big time game and Tony the "choke" Romo is out there he gets smoked like a Turkey.

The night game this Thanksgiving is the Baltimore Ravens vs. the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Baltimore is favored by -3 points and they are at home. This is the hardest game of the three a division game between two teams fighting to reach the playoffs. Expect this game to be low scoring because both of these defenses rank in the top 10 in the NFL.

This game could go either way but I'm trending towards the Ravens because they are at home.

Baltimore has a more stable running game and quarterback with Joe Falco and Ray Rice. The Steelers have no running game and this will hurt them in a close a very competitive game.

Winners on Thanksgiving :
Detroit Lions
Oakland Raiders
Baltimore Ravens

Happy Thanksgiving  



Bingo

Some people might think bingo is only for the old.

Some people might think bingo is boring.

Some people might think bingo is played at retirement homes.

Well, all you people are wrong. Bingo has become more and more popular.

Bingo is played at Church's.

Bingo is played at Indian Casino's.

Bingo is played everywhere now.

Bingo is a simple game. A person reads out a letter and a number and you put a mark on it.

The only complicated part is you have to come at the right time. Because their are sessions and you can not join in the middle of a session once it has started.

All of the Indian casino's I go to have bingo. These rooms are huge and are very modern with touch screen cards and even manual cards that put a mark on for you so you do not even need to pay attention when you match your letter and number. All you have to say is

Bingo Bingo Bingo I won

Betting Pools

Betting pools are fun and entertaining. Pools create an atmosphere of a group that is competing against each other.

Pools can be done in your neighborhood or even at work.

Pools give friends and families chances to haze or make fun of people because they are betting with in your pool.

Pools are simple. They are created between friends and family on a common sport like basketball or football.

The most common type of pool is done during March Madness or the Super Bowl.

March Madness is a big college tournament with 64 teams and it starts in March and ends in April.
You make a bracket of how you think the tournament will go. The most wins in your group or pool would win.

The Super Bowl is usually done by squares. Where at random you pick certain boxes and certain numbers at random are chosen as well. Each quarter of the game the score is going to be your winner. For example if your box is Giants 3 and  Patriots 0 and the score is 13 to 10 after the first quarter then you would win. The last numbers of the score is your numbers.

Pools are great for keeping the uninterested fan interested.

Betting Basketball



Betting basketball is tough and is very difficult to understand why or when a team should and will win. In basketball there are various betting possibilities: betting the spread, over/under, win out right, and half time bets. Knowing and getting familiar with teams and tendencies is very important to ensure your bet will be successful.

For Example the Los Angels Clippers play the Golden State Warriors. Both of these teams score but play no defense. So look out for the over/under number. Lets just say that the number  is 205. Meaning by the end of the game with the two scores combined between the Clippers and the Warriors needs to be 205. Knowing that this number is very low you would bet the over. Because of the lack of defense of these two teams.

The reason basketball is so tuff to bet on is because of garbage time. Garbage time is when the coach has taken out all his starters and put his bench players in. This can ruin a spread or even an over/under. Because of the quality of basketball you have for seen with both teams playing their starting lineups the entire game especially the last 2 minutes.

Be careful on trap games like a back/back night for a team. Meaning if a team plays one night and then the next night do not expect the team to be well rested or play at an optimum level.

      
 Watch out for buzzer beaters there just gut wrenching.
