Monday Night Football, a chance to add a few more bucks to the kitty, or chase all the bad bets you made over the week-end. I see this happen every week to gamblers. The guys that won money are itching to take their winnings and double-down on the final game of the week, thinking they've won all week-end and there's no reason their luck should change. Conversely, the losers have one last game to get even, thinking their luck has got to change. Both are bad ideas. Both of these types of gamblers fail to understand the basic premise of money management; Stay within your budget. It's a long season and you can't win if you don't finish. It's easier to overcome a small loss then to spend the next four or five weeks digging out of a big hole. Stay consistent with your wagers and you'll find you will face fewer lows and appreciate the highs more. It took me many years to figure that out but, it is one of the most important rules.
I've waffled all week on this game. There are good reasons to take either team and we could argue them right up to game time and I doubt any of us would change are original pick.
I'm going with my original thoughts and picking the VIKINGS BIG and I don't think the points will matter. GLTA
