I honestly think books track certain bettors.  I don’t mean me per se since I can’t bet on B365 but the articles on books restricting sharp prop bettors clearly mentions this.  

Yes, they do track accounts and label them sharp accounts or smart money. Ironically less than 10% of sportsbooks accounts are profitable

I know someone who bets on DK who specifically places $5 parlays to pay like 150k every weekend just because he thinks it will make their algorithms think he is not a sharp bettor, so that they continue to keep their limits high for him. Not sure if it actually works but he does do well (to hear him tell it lol) and they haven't restricted him. 

If they ever let you back into B365, you should do something like that lol and perhaps @SmittyBacall should consider doing it before they kick him out lol

There have been severe storms hitting CA, specifically Northern California over the past two weeks. A bad storm is coming in Saturday morning (supposedly). I am really hoping it doesnt, but if its 20mph winds with a half inch of rain? Then the under 42 seems like a great bet. So I am locking that in right now and if the weather is good, I will bet the over and void it and pay the juice. 

I dont see Seattle scoring a lot of points either way, so I am going to do a 7pt teaser with the niners -2.5 and the under 49. 

Seattle is the #30 ranked rush D. I LOVE elijah Mitchell over 36.5 rush yards. He should get a healthy dose of touches and is explosive. He can break a big run at any time, but he also grinds out tough yards up the middle, which is where seattle is really vulnerable. The niners should have a lead and may use him to ice the game. 

I also will take the over CMC 75 rush yards. He had 100 last time they played. His usage is so high and this is a pretty short number all things considered. 

Taking the over rushing yards for teams favored by double digits is a winning strategy long term.

Sadly I think my Kittle props are in serious danger with that weather.   It’s probably going to need a massive chunk play to get home.   That’s the flip side to getting ahead of line movement.

I think I might like CIN to beat BUF next week, and I think this KC team can be had, especially through the air which is where the bengals strength is on offense, so I think I will take cincy to win the AFC +390

I also think if CIN/BUF both win this week, then the winner of LAC/JAX will play KC. Tough to bet against Andy off the bye, but the chargers play KC very tough and I think they can win that game. Chargers are +1100 to win the AFC. Chargers might not even win this weekend, but if they do, then they have a puncher's chance to play in the AFCCG. Might be worth a shot with the idea I will hedge should they get to the AFCCG. The goal of this bet is to be in a position to hedge and lock in profit.

The only gimmick prop they hooked me with was Any OL to catch a TD +1500... could see some trick plays, maybe even on ST. Something fun to root for 

LOL You're using my logic in the sense that trick plays will happen which is why I took any non-QB to throw a TD this weekend at +1500 as well. I'll send you $5 for a beer if a RB throws a TD to a tackle

Bills and 49ers are covering are very popular bets. Possible one these doesn't hit because those two team parlays just seem "too easy". My guess would be the 49ers because of weather. Maybe it ends up 14-6 49ers. 

Something tells me Seattle pulls the upset. Extremely hard to beat the same team 3 times , especially a healthy and one
