Septemeber Starts Well
But first, the end of August:
I discovered that Mansion $1000 freeroll on the Saturday before I left for Las Vegas. I saw that it was already getting discussed on poker forums, and figured that this was going to attract a lot of attention. Presuming this meant the line on the Dolphins was going to get worse over time, I jumped in right away, getting +5/-5 and getting -110 on the Dolphins at SportsInteraction. Not thrilled about the possibility of a push, but overall I am satisfied with this scalp.
While in San Diego, all I did was a Linesmaker reload. (You get one every month following a month where you lost money.) I busted it in one bet. I'll get another one in September, but they get progressively smaller.
I loaded at LegendzSports to experiment with their "free half point on your favorite NFL team" promotion. I want to see if I can get some better arb opportunities if I have a free half point to play with. Strangely I found some small MLB arbs against SportsInteraction (the lines vs Pinnacle were awful), and I played the arbs. I busted it all into SIA in two bets (I am now 8 for 8 in bets at SIA), so now I have to reload to play with the free half point on NFL. Heh! Also of note, Legendz gave me an unadvertised 20% Freeplay on my deposit. I called CS and asked about it and the CS guy seemed confused as well, but told me it was a 5X rollover on it - so I still have that to do.
On to September:
BetUSA is my bizitch. (Knock wood). Finally got around to this one. I have loaded, and reloaded twice and busted it all out on 4 total bets. I am running hot there, enough said. I predict more reloads in the future.
I also did a 10% Island reload. Busted that in one bet, but the best I could do was -5. I had forgotten how tough the MLB lines are on Island. Tough to scalp, anyways. I should take better notes or go back and read my posts sometime.
Feels good to be busting a few books again. I had a crummy 6 week run there, and I look forward to getting back into a decent earning pattern.
