200 on VT tonight over NC state -1.5. More of a fanboy pick than really knowing its +EV but I think VT should cover.

VT won so I'm happy. Will look to keep betting them on their remaining games as long as the spreads are reasonable. They are playing solid as fuck right now.

If I knew what the fuck you guys were talking about in here I'd be more willing to contribute. I always bet point spreads, and I understand parlays, so that's about it for me.

I've always used a book, but I just got into the online deals so having said that:

2/9

Uconn +10.5 @ SYR - 50 to win 45.50
Duke -6 @ UNC - 50 to win 42.25

2/10
Notre Dame +5 @ Seton Hall
Risked US$ 45.50 to win US$ 41.40

wheels · Post by **wheels** » Fri Feb 12, 2010 3:20 pm

Got WVU -3 @ Pitt tonight. 50 to win 40 something I forget.

Lots of bad blood between these teams, should be a good game.

lol. i bet on some all-star props. i had rondo for mvp at 20-1. thought those odds were nice in case he could get a triple-double which is an automatic mvp for all-star games. i also put 20 bucks on gallo (fuck gallo) who was a disgrace

Aaaaand fail.

Closest I got was last week, 10/12

Only a matter of time!

Reason · Post by **Reason** » Tue Mar 02, 2010 8:05 pm

Boston @ Detroit

I love the under here. The line is at 189 total points.

Detroit at home versus East Squads average 84.22 points per game in 18 of such games this year

Boston on the road versus East Squads average 99.17 also in 18 games BUT two of those games were overtime games (in which they scored 107 and 112 each).

99.17 to 84.22? That's 183.39. Under 189. Factor in the two overtime games (or in this case excise them from the situation) and Boston is averaging 97.88. 97.88 + 84.22 = 182.10.

I bet this in a parlay -5 Boston. I could be wrong but how could Doc not motivate his team and his team not self-motivate to crush the Pistons or at least try to after the embarrassing recent loss to the Nets?

I'm going to single bet the Under 189 as well.

PLUS another 5 teamer that ends with LSU +12 over Tennessee worth 450.

Basically Notre Dame +2 is now worth over 3 grand to me.

I'm hedging the FUCK out of this.

I can't read all that. Did you hit?

Choke · Post by **Choke** » Fri Mar 12, 2010 7:50 pm

I did. Ended up hitting 14-4-1 on all the games I bet yesterday, hitting the 9(!) teamer and 2 5-teamers in the process

Up $3200 on the day. My best day ever.

I'm fucking 6-0 today too. I dont know what's happened to me, but I cant miss.

I did a 10 teamer that's 6 games down.

If Northwestern +8, Maryland -4, and Marquette +5 all cover, (oddly enough) Notre Dame tonight will be worth 5 grand for me on a $10 bet.

Northwestern +8 right now is worth $600 to me on a 5 teamer.

It all has to come crashing down soon. I'm expecting Purdue to start hitting any minute now.

wow i just read all that

AWESOME, CHOKE! i take it the last one you mentioned didn't hit in the end though?

i've been on fire last couple days. 5-1 so far in march madness, and 3-0 (two teasers and a parlay) in nba
