The Rising Sun (Fork of Degen Corner and SN Bets)
There is a place on Stacker News
They call the Rising Sun
And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
And God, I know I'm one
Big week for me. The best way to describe it would be to quote NBA JAM "He's heating up".
Started and ended the week hot with a bit of a blip in the middle due to a couple NBA upsets. However, the losses from those upsets were mitigated by a dominating second half performance from OKC.
Here's how it played out:
MNF I hit both a small parlay and moneyline bet on the Steelers. Starting my week with a $12 profit.
I lost a small parlay in game 4 of the WS but won a moneyline bet on the Dodgers in game 5 and hit my futures bet on the Dodgers to win the WS I made before the series began. This netted around $5 profit for MLB this week.
In NBA, I hit a small parlay in the Mavs/TWolves game and a small second half spread bet on the Nuggets to beat the Nets by more than 2.5. Things were looking good but I lost about 70% of my weekly profit on a bet on the Celtics to beat the Pacers (didn't happen) and took another hit on the Bucks losing to the Grizzlies. It was looking like it would be a pretty flat week but I picked up a big win Friday when I bet aggressively (by my standards) at halftime on the Thunder to beat the Trail Blazers by more than 6.5. They did. That boosted me up to a profit of around $18 for the week.
I stayed hot hitting a CFB parlay and a parlay in the Raptors/Kings game. Small bets but another few dollars to the weekly bottom line.
On Sunday, I lost my early game parlay but I hit on a moneyline and a halftime spread bet on the Vikings. I used my no sweat bet from losing my early game parlay to bet on the Mavs -6.5 over the Magic, which also hit and recouped almost all my stake in the earlier losing bet. Ultimately I was up around $5 for the day.
Overall I was up about $26 for the week.
At the end of the NFL season, whatever profit I have earned will be swept into Bitcoin.
Current Profit: $127
Sats for all,
