Every gambler has its own theories and superstitions i know i sure have a few of my own which i think in some stupid way effects the games :mj07: :shrug:

Theories:
------------

1)TV games: i'll always keep an eye on the tv games to see who wins as a visitor or home team day in and day out and if a bunch of home teams have won in a row on espn i'll pound the visitor which i like anyway and it falls in that angle and most of the time it works believe it or not lol or the other way around. Again like during coll. basketball season on big mondays i'll see how the 1st 2 games are going and if there are upsets already i'll pound the late fav but i have gotten burned this last yr doing that cause there were alot of upsets.

2)Home/Away teams: ofcourse u gotta wait for the later games, if a bunch of home teams have won in the american leauge or national leauge i'll bet the road dog in the later games :shrug: cause i figure not all the home teams are gonna win but then again on a day like today ur fockin screwed :mj07:

Superstitions:
------------------

1) WALLPAPER: i change my wallpaper on my computer almost every week but if i go on a winnign streak that chit stays as long as i'm making money but as soon as i lose i figure its giving me bad luck and its time for a new one lol

2) WIFE: when the wife starts nagging and arguing with me i automatically count it as a loss :142smilie and the game hasn't even started. i consider that jinx,fockin up my good gambling vibes :mj07: :shrug:

There are a few more but i'm getting tired of typing and i'm sure u guys out there have a bunch of these and if u guys say no its a bunch of BS :mj07:

let us know what your theories and superstitions are for entertainment purposes COME ON JACK I KNOW U GOT SOME OF THOSE :toast:

Theories:

1) All the NBA TV channels broadcast one team or another's station and I always think the team who gets their announcers & station have an advantage.

2) If I ever post on madjacks during a game about a certain player or team performing poorly or well, they will immediately begin to perform oppositely. :scared

3) If you ever heckle Soul Train about his plays, he WILL win :142smilie

Superstitions:

1) The dog is allowed on the couch during games

2) Must send smoke signals for the team before tipoff :weed:

3) When Dick Bavetta is the ref, it's not a good sign....

On the course!
I always turn a game off when I need something to happen.

I swear to fukk, when I flip a game on that I hadn't been watching, my team starts to do shit! I can turn it off, check the "ticker", and they are right back in it!

I have a Buddy who calls to talk about how good a Team(s) are doing, I start bitchin at hime, he says he's calling it a Winner, I hang up. More often than not it becomes a lost.

Use a special Pen for the Day. GF is a real sport but only allows me one High Five. Sometimes I feel like Puddy.

Wife walks into the room:

Opposing team goes on a 15-0 run . . .

Walk off grand slam homer . . .

Puck bounces off boards into the net . . .

3 point prayer at the buzzer is answered for the wrong team . . .

I love marriage :com:

one theory that i follow, in all sports, is not to bet road favorites....

sometimes i may go against it.....but for the most part i think betting against home dogs is a losing proposition...

Superstition: Never wear team apparel of the team you are wagering on - almost a guaranteed loser right there. Also, always write in the opening/closing lines and scores of all games.

Holy shit, I thought that only happened to me. This seems to happen almost EVERY freaking time!Now I never watch a game that I have bets on for that reason.
