I was trying to look for a clip from Tiny Toon adventures where Plucky was potty training, and he just started throwing things down the toilet, flushing, and saying "__ go down the hoooole"... See, because that's where my money went, down the hole... Funding people on matchbook who believe in locks, guarantees, teams that will "crush" other teams, and so forth. Here is what the chart looks like:
As you can see, things were pretty awesome, then everybody died. Obviously this was all NFL, in which I have lost over 100x so far this year. There's really nothing I can do about it, nor is there anything I would have done differently. Obviously, two Sundays ago was "the worst day in Vegas ever ever ever", and I followed suit by having my worst day ever. Again, I think that's sort of the point, the plan of attack is to play at or even slightly below 50%, grind out a profit at a 1-2% ROI based on Matchbook's awesome negative-vig system.
There are going to be days like this.
That being said, everything else is doing very well. Hockey hasn't turned a profit yet, but then again, it's 38 games at 1 or 2 units per, so who cares, anyway. Baseball was very profitable near the end of the season, and most of our series bets won, and I was able to put money on the Yankees @ -180 last night without hating myself, so that was nice.
Here's what October looks like in chart form:

Same standard ~250k wagered, not as pretty results. If you're reading this blog, you know how college football went, with Juice, Paulus, some terrible backdoors against us, whatever.
Hopefully this means I'm back to posting, sorry for being such a queer for losing 20 grand in a one week period.
