Hey mpethy & peanut gallery, can I do a thread on overbets, or deep overbetting? Can I tentatively have April 20th or any day around there?
Its a fairly weak topic, but thats because I don't think many people really know the great value in overbetting. Hell, I forget about it fairly often myself. Last couple of days I've been saving all of my overbet HH to a Notepad file, and I should have plenty of examples by the middle of April.
Here's a sampling of overbetting from the past few days:
