That's one sign.
Couple of others:

- Only playing favorites
- Betting right before game time instead of when the lines first come out.
- Betting only games that are "big televised games with a lot of press".

If I can be 60% sharp & 40% square in my lifetime as a gambler I will always be in the black.

Sometimes we are both sharp and square. Your posting handle describes a lot of us gamblers in-fact.

Years ago Me and a couple of buddies were in Vegas and at the counter to cash a ticket. Guy behind me asked what did u hit, so I said a parlay - he said cmon man only squares bet those. The guy behind the counter said then he must be one sharp square because this is a 10 teamer.

I have had the nickname ever since. Even though it rarely applies :ROFLMAO:+signs11 9+

there should be a contest see who is the sharpest at picking lines

pick lines early in week and then track lines kickoff of weekend games see who was able pick best lines like if u picked raiders +3 and it went to +1 u gained 2 points and if it went to +5 u lost 2 points

It wasn't that massive of a hit but a nice one a college/NFL money-line hit. I don't remember the teams but its was 5600
