Hello Everyone,


Well last week you saw the good. This week we're getting
the bad and the ugly as we find new and creative ways
to lose. In terms of dollars lost...it's pennies but
still very frustrating.

Again, we'll see if we can get something working here...
A mix of baseball and football....

Bad luck boys and girls. Kershaw was his usual
awesome but someone forgot to tell the Yankees
they had one more game with Seattle.

Again, I stress the fact that 2 big favorites have
gone down and yet we are only a cool $25 bucks down
this week which is a hell of a lot better than had
we played them straight.

Today we'll try to get up on the board and get a
parlay working toward our key games on Sunday

9/18/2011 1:00 PM NFL Football 197 Chicago Bears/New Orleans Saints* Over 44 -180
9/18/2011 4:15 PM NFL Football 219 Houston Texans* -145 vs Miami Dolphins
9/16/2011 8:00 PM College Football 103 Boise State/Toledo* Over 56 -180
9/15/2011 7:35 PM MLB Baseball 970 Philadelphia Phillies* -1½ -145 vs Florida Marlins

Platinum Sports Investing Blog - Wednesday

Hello Everyone,

Some people may look at it like the glass is half empty
with our parlay losing but I'm looking at it as the glass
is all the way full. YES we lost 10 bucks but imagine all those
people who played teams like Tampa and Philadelphia and
got their bankrolls CRUSHED losing at -230. So even though
we lost we saved a boat load of cash compared to playing
games like that straight up.

Today we will try to get on the board and get some open
parlays towards our key wagers this weekend.

Lets again tie up 2 MLB games with 2 football and see
if we can get out of the gate.


9/18/2011 1:00 PM NFL Football 197 Chicago Bears/New Orleans Saints* Over 44 -170
9/16/2011 8:00 PM College Football 103 Boise State/Toledo* Over 55 -180
9/14/2011 10:10 PM MLB Baseball 916 Los Angeles Dodgers* 1H -137 vs Arizona Diamondbacks
D Hudson - R Listed C Kershaw - L Listed
9/14/2011 10:10 PM MLB Baseball 929 New York Yankees* -191 vs Seattle Mariners

CONGRATS EVERYONE!!!!

Those of you who follow the blog picked up a nice
piece of change last night as our KEY game the
NE / Miami OVER was an easy winner.

I hope you guys get a feel for the power of what
we're doing with the parlays although I'm wondering
if I should even bother based on a few of the emails
I received on Saturday.

I'm not sure if it was just bitter people or what
the problem is but for those of you who missed it
I'll outline what we had.

In addition to the 5 or 6 open parlays I gave out
on twitter a 4 team round robin for Saturdays games.
with Wisconsin 1st half - WIN, Ohio St first half OVER - WIN,
Florida Intl 1st half OVER - WIN and the last leg was
Stanford -12.5 (LOSS)

Now the first three winners were in and a $10 round robin
was paying $355 with the 3 team and 4 team combos. So what
I did and what I suggested that others do is to go back
and take $50 or $100 or even $150 and bet Duke +12.5 for
the first half because we were already in a no lose situation
but why not make it a guaranteed WIN situation.

Then came the emails telling me how STUPID it is to bet
on Duke since we couldn't loose that it's a WASTE....
well to all the GENIUS' who emailed me....I DID go back and
take $100 on Duke, who covered on a lucky ass interception
but they covered plus I had a $50 parlay into our KEY game
tonight so I made a $200 on a $10 round robin where I went
3-1 and the morons who emailed me made NOTHING.

Look at the numbers...to play the 3's and 4's it cost $50 bucks.
Once we won the first 3 you got paid $60 so you're up $10 no matter
what but you have GUARANTEED MONEY ON THE TABLE. YOU CAN'T
LEAVE THAT MONEY THERE. You already can't lose but what
would be so bad if you went back and bet $175 on Duke +12.5...
and guess what? No matter who wins, you profit another $175
so you can stop watching ....it doesn't matter...its FREE
FRIGGIN money. If you want to survive in this racket you
have to take free money when it's given to you.

Does that make sense? I know everyone loved Stanford and
I did too but NO TEAM is above being hedged because CRAZY
shit happens.

As pissed off as I was about the emails..I know there are some
real good guys and girls that follow the blog so we'll keep
going.

Here is our first parlay for the new week:

We're going to take 2 baseball games on teams that need it
and roll that into our 2 key games for next weekend
which are Chicago / New orleans OVER and Atlanta.
Now, at bet any sports / 5 dimes atlanta is +1 but
I've got them at other books +6 with a 3pt buy.

$10.00 $47.98 Pending 4 Team Parlay
Pending 9/18/11 1:00pm NFL Football 197 Chicago Bears/New Orleans Saints Over 44 -170*
Pending 9/18/11 8:25pm NFL Football 226 Atlanta Falcons +3½ -175* vs Philadelphia Eagles
Pending 9/13/11 7:05pm MLB Baseball 951 St Louis Cardinals -163* vs Pittsburgh Pirates (C Carpenter - R must Start J Karstens - R must Start)
Pending 9/13/11 7:05pm MLB Baseball 967 Tampa Bay Rays -220* vs Baltimore Orioles (D Price - L must Start A Simon - R must Start)

Hello Everyone,


I have to say some of the emails I got were actually
mind numbing. I don't have time to go into it today
but I'll address that tomorrow.

today we just want to see if we can get a good teaser
working into the UNDER on our Monday night key.

So Let's add:

Pending 9/11/11 1:00pm NFL Football 453 Pittsburgh Steelers/Baltimore Ravens Over 29 *
Pending 9/11/11 1:00pm NFL Football 455 Detroit Lions/Tampa Bay Buccaneers Over 34½ *
Pending 9/11/11 1:00pm NFL Football 457 Atlanta Falcons/Chicago Bears Over 33½ *
Pending 9/11/11 1:00pm NFL Football 462 Houston Texans -3 * vs Indianapolis Colts
Pending 9/11/11 1:00pm NFL Football 465 Cincinnati Bengals/Cleveland Browns Over 28 *
Pending 9/11/11 1:00pm NFL Football 466 Cleveland Browns pk * vs Cincinnati Bengals
Pending 9/12/11 7:00pm NFL Football 480 New England Patriots / Miami Dolphins Under 52½

20/160


It's kind of a longshot that we hit it but worth the $20 bucks

Platinum Sports Investing Blog - Thursday

Hello Everyone,

Ok so after a few days we have $40 worth of open parlays
and / teasers working to our key game of NE / MIA OVER.

Our key 2nd to last leg on many of them is the NO / GB OVER.
With the LA Angels winning for us last night we got our
hedge on the key level of NO / GB OVER that will actually
cover the 4 bets we have open. So as of right now you
could just sit back and do nothing. If the Green Bay game
goes under, you'll be out about 8 bucks thanks to Kansas
City yesterday (if you follow on twitter) if not you'll
win $2 if our game tonight goes UNDER. I'm NOT going to
sit back. I'm going to risk a little bit of my profits
and put a 3 team parlay into action and hopefully getting
a middle in the process.

PARLAY (3 TEAMS)
[452] TOTAL u51-167 (B+3)
(N.O. SAINTS vrs G.B. PACKERS)
[466] CLEV BROWNS -290
[479] TOTAL o42½-167 (B+3)
(N.E. PATRIOTS vrs MIA DOLPHINS)

Let's go POINTS tonight!

PS: those of you who follow on twitter we may have a great
middle opportunity at halftime so keep your eyes open for that

Wednesday update #2

Guys and Gals...

The point of doing parlays is not to create more work but
to put LESS at risk. Lets say that I was having a bad
week and all the games we were trying to tie into our KEY
were losing. The point is that we are only losing $10 bucks
and NO JUICE instead of $40 or $50 plus the juice.

I want you guys to understand that because I did get a few emails
from people saying "if we just played $50 on each of the games
you used to start the parlays we'd be having a great week...
that's true but short sighted and you'd have to have
put a lot of money at risk.

Remember, the goal is to get the maximum potential payday for
the minimum amount of money at risk.

Tod

Hey guys...IF the tigers lose, we will add another parlay to our portfolio but it doesn't help us protecting our green bay over

Platinum Sports Investing Blog - Wednesday

Hello everyone,

Another winner in our portfolio for this weekend so as you
can see we're starting to build up money on our key game
this weekend on monday night going OVER on the NE / MIA game.

Do I love that game? Sure....will I sit back and "gamble" with
the parlays we have open...HELL NO...HELL NO...

My goal each week is to get to my key game, have money on both
sides of it so I"m risking ZERO to make positive money...
The key is RISKING ZERO.

**IMPORTANT NOTE** For those of you who are interested in doing
these parlays it would be in your best interest to FOLLOW me on
TWITTER @teampsic.

The reason being, on the blog I can't always meet the email deadline
and during the day I may get information on a game or ADD a play
to the string of parlays and there is no way for me to go back
to the blog and add it where most of you will see it so when I add
anything to the parlay portfolio I'll go ahead and "tweet" it out
so you guys can also play it. Plus each day I'll tweet the parlays
that are on the blog.

Ok, so it's Wednesday and we still want to build towards our
key game but now we have to start to think in terms of
PROTECTING our second level. Notice most of our parlays and
teasers follow the same path going THRU the New Orleans / Green Bay
OVER and into the NE / MIA OVER. Now we need to get some money
on the UNDER side of the New Orleans game.....just enough to protect
our open wagers and there are a few ways you can do it.

Lets suppose that you have 3 bets open and you have 30 at risk
and you stand to collect 70. THIS LEVEL IS THE TRICKY LEVEL OF
THE WHOLE PROCESS AND THIS LEVEL IS WHERE HONESTLY ON SOME WEEKS
IT WILL TAKE US OUT OF A LOT OF PARLAYS. It happens sometimes.
You'll spend the whole week setting up these "STRING" parlays and
the 2nd to last leg will go down wiping you out of a lot of work.
We need to try and protect ourselves as CHEAPLY as possible.

So we'll add the following plays today:

PARLAY (3 TEAMS)
[452] TOTAL u50-167 (B+3)
(N.O. SAINTS vrs G.B. PACKERS)
[967] DET TIGERS -170
( ACTION )
[980] LAA ANGELS -200
( ACTION )

15 / 42


PARLAY (3 TEAMS)
[451] TOTAL o44-167 (B+3)
(N.O. SAINTS vrs G.B. PACKERS)
[479] TOTAL o42½-167 (B+3)
(N.E. PATRIOTS vrs MIA DOLPHINS)
[967] DET TIGERS -170
( ACTION )

10 / 31


PARLAY (3 TEAMS)
[451] TOTAL o44-167 (B+3)
(N.O. SAINTS vrs G.B. PACKERS)
[479] TOTAL o42½-167 (B+3)
(N.E. PATRIOTS vrs MIA DOLPHINS)
[968] CLE INDIANS +1½-110
( J. VERLANDER -R / J. MASTERSON -R )

10 / 39


Take your time and read this so you can follow what we're doing...
first I'm assuming that the WEST VIRGINA game teaser was a cancellation
so Lets say you have 3 wagers open going into today...so you have
30 at risk. So we need to try to protect all of our RISK money
going into the Packers game thrusday so today we'll take
Detroit, LAA into the UNDER (3pt buy)...if, and I do mean IF our
baseball games win we are in a GREAT situation from the perspective
that tomorrow night no matter what happens we cant LOSE...if the game
goes under our efforts from earlier in the week are a bit in vain
but it didn't cost us anything either. However, don't forget by
buying the points on these parlays we still have that 6 point middle
on that game where we could see the total land in that window and
we could have a WHOLE lot working towards Monday night.

Ok, so our goal today is to get a little protection on the green bay
game and also ADD more money to our KEY. So we have our protection parlay
and then if you'll notice we are taking both halves of the Detroit game
and running that into our 2 main games. One way or another , we're going to
get another parlay working and if the Tigers and Indians play a one run
game with the tigers winning by 1 we will MIDDLE that game.

I don't want you guys getting overwhelmed. It's a very simple concept.
Instead of going out and risking 300 to win 175 on New England OVER with
a 3 point buy on monday...we are using parlays to try and maybe risk 80 or
90 bucks (instead of 300) to not only get our PROFIT but most importantly
we get a BETTER LINE without paying big juice.


To Your Success,

Tod Wilkinson

Platinum Sports Investing Blog - Tuesday

Hello Everyone,

Ok, we've added another log on the fire. Some of you
have 3 open bets. Most "REAL" sportsbooks took the cancelled
game between West Va and Marshall and called it a NO ACTION
and left your other 2 teams in a teaser so right now we have
3 open legs:

PT TEASER / 2 teams
[479] TOTAL o38½-107 (B+7)
(N.E. PATRIOTS vrs MIA DOLPHINS)
[211] TOTAL o39½-107 (B+7) - WIN
(MIAMI FLORIDA vrs MARYLAND)

6 PT TEASER / 3 teams
[451] TOTAL o40-107 (B+7)
(N.O. SAINTS vrs G.B. PACKERS)
[479] TOTAL o38½-107 (B+7)
(N.E. PATRIOTS vrs MIA DOLPHINS)
[210] TEXAS A&M -9-107 (B+7)- WIN

PARLAY (3 TEAMS)
[451] TOTAL o44-167 (B+3)
(N.O. SAINTS vrs G.B. PACKERS)
[479] TOTAL o42½-167 (B+3)
(N.E. PATRIOTS vrs MIA DOLPHINS)
[980] LAA ANGELS -285 - WIN
( ACTION )


So at this point things are looking good.
We've made 3 bets and you either have all 3 alive or 2 alive and
you got your money back on the other so we're
starting to build our portfolio on the New England over at both
OVER 38.5 and Over 42.5. Later in the week you'll see that we
will actually start making bets into the UNDER and start to
set up our middles but that's later....Today we want to get
another parlay working....So lets add this parlay to our group..
We will buy 3 points on the Detroit / Tampa OVER, buy 3 on our key
game NEW ENGLAND / Miami OVER and add the Red Sox.

Sep 11 NFL [455] TOTAL o38-167 (B+3) (DET LIONS vrs T.B. BUCCANEERS)
Sep 12 NFL [479] TOTAL o42½-167 (B+3) (N.E. PATRIOTS vrs MIA DOLPHINS)
Sep 06 MLB [921] BOS RED SOX -181 [Action]
Risking 10 USD To Win 30 USD


Tomorrow we'll look at some football and get some more TEASERS
working to set up the big fat 14 point middle on monday night!

To your success,

Tod Wilkinson

Platinum sports investing blog - monday

Hello team,

It worked out well for us yesterday and would have been better had the west va game not been suspended. That teaser was refunded but our other is still alive.

Those of you who rely on email.....you're going to have to come here to the
Blog each day as I can't always make the email deadline so if you dont visit
The blog you'll be a day behind and that wont do you much good.

Today we are going to add one parlay:

(N.E. PATRIOTS vrs MIA DOLPHINS)
[980] LAA ANGELS -285
( ACTION )

10 / 25


Notice since we are using a parlay you still want to buy points on the patriot over, which is our key. I also bought on the green bay / saints game. I want to have potential Middles working at every leg to set up for hedging. We will get to that. For now, just put in this parlay and let's see if we can't get another active leg going towards our key.

To your success,

Platinum Sports Investing Blog - Sunday

Hello Everyone,


Ok now that I have eclipsed my 8 year anniversary
I'm going to divulge one of my best secrets to how
I make money playing the games.

I often get emails from people who say "I have a
$200 bankroll so what do you think....should I start
with a $50 bet?" My response usually goes something
like...."did you eat paint chips as a kid? Have
you recently been hit by a bus or had an out of
body experience? The one thing I can assure you
if you bet $50's on a $200 bankroll is that you're
going to go broke...and fast!

So the challenge for everyone is how can I make money
when I have a little to start with....OR how can I make
money with a MINIUMUM of exposure.

The answer is by using PARLAYS!

Now, I already see half the people who believe that
parlays are a sucker bet, and you're right to a degree,
and the other half who have no idea how to use parlays
and always lose them so right off the bat I know the
first reaction is negative. Do I care? No, not even
a little bit. If you don't like or at least want
to open your mind on how to do parlays the right
way then go pound sand and keep losing. The reason
I don't talk about this too often is that too many
people want to "GAMBLE" and are not interested in the
idea of accepting small wins.

RULE #1: YOU MUST BE WILLING TO ACCEPT SMALL WINS!

Here is something I learned in my 10 years in the casino
business. Most of my casino, non sportsbook, time was in
the craps pit. I usually watched the same group of people
whine about not being able to catch a roll but when the
rolls came they had no idea how to capitalize. The
difference between the losers and the professionals
was the the pro's had a rock solid systematic approach
and they were willing to accept small wins. Hmm...there
we go again with the small wins.

So, for the 5 of you still reading this I want you
to answer me a question. If I gave you these two
options, which would you choose?

You have the option of risking $30 with a payoff of
$100. OR You have the option of risking ZERO with
a payoff of $30. Be honest, which would you choose?
A lot of you aren't real excited about that $30
payday but if you did that every day you'd make $900
a month.

So back to our original idea. Yes just throwing
out a 3 team parlay on your favorite teams is gambling suicide.
I agree. However, doing parlays the right way by time-zoning
them out and HEDGING they go from suicidal to a systematic
way to extract money from your book.

NFL football also offers us another of life's great joys,
the opportunity to hit many many MIDDLES. In addition
to using systematic parlays to make some money we'll also
use teasers and build ourselves 10,12, and 14 point middles
where we hit the JACKPOT.

Our goal each game is to take our key game and build an
"investment" profile on that game. Then later in the week
when we have enough on our "KEY" we'll turn around and start
betting into the OPPOSITE of our key game with point buys
and teasers. By the end of the week, in a perfect world,
we will have a situation where NO MATTER WHAT happens
in our Key game we will win money. We'll make a nice
score if our key game wins, we'll make a small win if
our key game loses and we hit the JACKPOT if our key game
middles.

VERY IMPORTANT - - when using this method you still need
to bet small and MAKE SURE YOU HAVE money to hedge. We will
be betting hedges and opposites all the way along so you
must have money to do that. Also, one thing you need to
get used to when you use this method is that you're not
really getting paid until the end of the week.

So, there is a lot to teach but the best way is to
see it in action.

Our KEY PLAY for this upcoming week is the
New England / Miami OVER 45

With that said, we'll never actually bet it at that
number but that's our key game so lets get started

Sunday 9/4/2011

We are going to start the week with 2 TEASERS!
I want to start building into the NE OVER at the lowest
number I can.

So here are the two plays we'll start working today...
I use 7 point teasers.
