Since I didn’t think those warm weathered Californias would want to deal with that cold windy weather up in Wyoming I did all right on that game, with Wyoming comfortably beating the spread and the game going under.

Like you said, it’s a lot more complicated than something like card counting. There’s not some majic formula that can make you a winner.
Excellent eye Bob.

Sometimes it's just good old fashion common sense with a dash of luck. The only college game I bet in 2017. I'm sitting in a sportsbook in a mindless state. A handicapper is flipping out because the Hawaii at Air Force game halted by lightning followed by a thunderstorm. The guy is rambling on and on about what this will do to his bet and how he will over compensate for the 2nd half. I had no clue what he was talking about.

But I noticed Washington was playing at Colorado. So I called a friend of mine in Boulder and asked about the weather. HE said, it was a mess and didn't think they'd even play the game. So what the hell, I took the under. They played the game and I picked up some easy money.

Bob, you're an 19-21 year old kid. It's a torrential downfall. It's Saturday night. The game might get canceled. Are you even thinking about football? I wouldn't have been.
