TY Scoobs.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Not sure where to ask this. If one of you know the answer, go ahead and take a whack at it.

Your monthly credit card statement arrives. For sake of argument, say the balance is $1,500. Which of the following actions helps your credit score the most?

a) Pay it off in full.

b) Pay the minimum.

c) Somewhere in between.

d) Doesn't make any difference, as long as you pay at least the minimum on time.

I vote A but I'm no expert.

Looking to put some money in a site and do some gambling, I haven't done anything online since online poker went down in California. Couple of things I would prefer from the site: load money via prepaid card and possibly even have an iphone app. Advice on a site.

 

[Good Posting Judge]

I never let a balance ride and my credit score is 800+.

don't think any have actual apps but most have mobile versions of their website that are easy to use.

depositing via VISA (prepaid or otherwise) generally seems pretty easy at the major books like Sportsbook, 5dimes, and Bovada.

 

[Raider Nation]

Thanks Rude/Truck. Paying off the balances in full the minute the bill comes is what I like to do. Just making sure that doesn't hurt me in some weird way.

Early NBA from over the pond....OVER 194 Nets/Hawks, tips 3est.

It's peanut butter pizzatyme! Over hit with about 8 minutes left. Easy peazy.

Nice call here bud. I got greedy an put a half unit on 2nd half over so hoping I don't ruin it. But it is nice tailing some of your over/unders because they can be nice and stress free like this one

I like Bovada cause they let me parlay tennis bets, tail frosty and play poker. Others may do this as well...but Bovada is my personal favorite.

Duder you have to be close or already hit the over 2h. 107 with about 3 minutes left has to be enough, no?...I was out and didn't see the 2h line.

To piggy back off this.. Which balance? The outstanding or the statement?

 

[General Malaise]

When do these tennis matches happen? You'd think finding a scheduled time would be easy, but the googles is failing me. Plus, I think it's Sunday in Australia.

The whole damn thing. So that I owe $0.

Continuing Random Question Thursday

With everyone having a camera phone now, how do strip clubs prevent peeps from sneaking pics/videos of the naked hoes on stage? Certainly they can't confiscate phones at the door, right?

I haven't been to a clam shack in ages. :(

 

[got_nugs]

FSU is seriously effing up this Pruitt situation as we speak. Gonna be big news soon and it's totally unnecessary. Super.

I don't have any first-hand experience, but I imagine anyone security keeps an eye out for this and tosses people if they're taking pics/vids?

who or what is Pruitt?

 

[PatsFanCT]

Why wont Bovada let you parlay or tease Davidson -7.5?

I've noticed this in the past with other teams. Is it because of the number?

 

[Frostillicus]

Don't like any games tonight but I am playing Napier (uconn) and Odom (vandy) Overs on points at Bovada.

FSU is seriously effing up this Pruitt situation as we speak. Gonna be big news soon and it's totally unnecessary. Super.

who or what is Pruitt?

Defensive Coordinator of the #1 defense in the country that unexpectedly left FSU for the same position at Georgia a few days ago after only 1 year on the job with no increase in pay or other benefit.

Rumors amongst the boosters are that he was caught by his young fiancee (that he met this year at FSU) steppin' out and that she initiated the move - "me or FSU", if you will. The SR AD just went on a Jacksonville radio station to bring light to this situation and instead of saying nothing he decided to throw lit matches all over the GD infield, ie: referring to "multiple partners", although I haven't heard the audio yet.

the SR AD has no reason to be on the damn radio talking about anything.

 

[regularguy]

I thought Pruitt got a pay raise from like $500k to $850k.

 

[got_nugs]

He did, but FSU offered to raise his pay to approx $800k which, with the lack of a state tax in FL, was about the same....reportedly.

He was also in line for some bonus money that he didn't get by leaving.

FSU women....they're the devil.

They usually don't let you with "added" or "extra" CBB games

oh. not sure this qualifies as "big news" to most people

 

[Good Posting Judge]

Dunno how this is translatable into a betting edge, but Neymar royally ####ed up his ankle today in a meaningless Cup match. Could be "miss the World Cup" bad.

Any bad publicity for the Dawgs sounds good to me. They just lost Harvey-Clemons for the 1st 3 games of 2014 due to suspension.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

FWIW, I just played these at SB:

CGY O26.5 -120.0

LAK U30.5 -130.0

MIN O27.5 -125.0

PHX O30.5 -120.0

SJS U33.5 100.0

Will see if the lines move again.

 

[NIU Kicker]

RN -

First and foremost pay the min on time and without fail never be more then 30 days late.

The how much balance you have ties into the amount if other debt you have. If you carry a mortgage then keeping a credit card debt open won't help your credit score. If you have no other debt then leaving a balance will theoretically help your score over having no balance but tou get so porked on interest it's not worth it. If you have even a car loan open then you have zero reason to ever have a credit card loan.

I played almost the opposite (meaning the counterparty, and that I agree) of all of these on Bovada saves props tonight.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

no immediate line moves. I don't think I have as much power as we thought yesterday despite going 5-0 on those SB plays.

They must have a member here and read about you betting opposite. :tinfoil:

 

[got_nugs]

if I had a play in the Knicks/Pacers game, it'd be under 184...but I am not touching it.

Correct. Credit Card debt is very very bad debt. Paying them off in full will help the credit score

 

[The Ref]

For those of you with the season prop.

Steve Stamkos (leg) participated in Thursday's morning skate.
"It was great," Stamkos said. "This is the first time I've been out there for a full skate. It was another step in the right direction. It was great mental-wise to be out there, too; great to be out there." He wants to play in at least two games for the Lightning in order to feel comfortable representing Canada at the Winter Olympics.

I ended up playing the Knicks + 9.5 and over.

For the ignorant....is he referring to the last 2 games of the season or before that?

If your current credit score ain't great, one of the best ways to get it up is by paying your ccard on time every month. So paying it off in full is OK if you're about to make a huge purchase, but if you're sitting pretty and just want to chip away at that score the best scenario is to keep 20 to 30 percent on it and just make your payments.

My score was 508 just 8 years ago, it was 797 when I bought my new whip this April. That's the method I use, but I'm no expert.

Yeah - turns out credit companies like it when you pay your bills.

So for you gambling gurus, what do you make of the Patriots line going up a full point in the last 24 hours?

Not a big jump, 5 is a pretty dead number in the NFL
