Last week was an absolute disaster for the computer. Although I wasn’t as nervous about it as I usually am, the Eagles continued to suck, and Vegas continued to overvalue…

After having its worst week of the season two weeks ago, Gamblor fought back admirably and had, statistically, its best week of the season last week. Driven primarily by Denver’s…
Last week was an absolute disaster for the computer. It basically took all of the money it had made this season and threw it out the window, going 0-4 in…
Last week was another solid (albeit rather lucky) week for the computer. With the gift of a push in the Eagles game, Gamblor went an impressive 9-4-1 with a weighted…
Last week was a fantastic, if not quite perfect week for the computer. It nailed its big bet on Buffalo, winning over $1300 in a single swoop. Unfortunately, it gave…

Thanks for checking in one last time this season! Let’s see what Gamblor has to say about the Superbowl… Gamblor’s Superbowl Prediction And what about Son of Gamblor? Son of…
Well, it ended up being a profitable season. And over the three years it has been active, Gamblor has now crossed into positive territory. Of course, as anyone who has…
I guess I should be a bit disappointed that I haven’t been betting on Gamblor’s picks during the postseason – it’s actually been doing pretty well so far during the…
What can I say? The computer went 10-3 on its bets last weekend, including a staggering 10-1 on Sunday. Unfortunately, the one bet it missed on Sunday was more than…
UPDATE: they finally posted spreads for the Jacksonville — Kansas City, Philadelphia — Tennessee, and Oakland — Denver games, with no big surprises. They also moved the spread down to…
With both schemes still performing at better than 80% for the season, Gamblor and Son of Gamblor have agreed to take a breather and have just 4 bets this week.
There’s an ancient roulette scheme that’s probably about two hours older than the game itself. It’s a strategy known as the “martingale system” and was apparently popular in 18th century…
Gamblor was correct in both of the games last week, going 2-0, but unfortunately it wasn’t confident enough in either pick to wager any money, so it’s take for the…

Gamblor finished its season in style, making the second-largest number of weighted picks in its entire 14-year (theoretical) history and finishing with a weighted win percentage of 57.5% and a…
The spread for the Buffalo game is -8.5. Yeah. A 5-10 team is an 8.5 point favorite over a 14-1 one. So of course Gamblor thinks this spread is about…
The computer had a nice week last week, going 9-6-1 against the spread. Well, it was almost nice. If I hadn’t dropped $340 on Pittsburgh, I’d have been up $40. …
Fucking hell. I need to keep reminding myself that in the long run this program has actually still made money for me. But another weekend like the last one and…
UPDATE: Hooray! Gamblor got off to a great start this week, nailing its second-largest bet as Cleveland dropped Pittsburgh last night. The 10.5 points that Atlanta is getting against the…
