SBR 128 Man Round 2: BgboothA vs Sinister Cat

[BGboothA]

Pick 10

11/10

234 Arizona Cardinals -9.5 -103

Man you took my pick!!!! Dang, I hate not being able to access this from school! Good pick, now I gotta go do some math.

[BGboothA]

Okilly Dokilly!!!

Pick #10
706 Boston Celtics -8 (-104)


Now if I did the math right, you have to win and I have to lose in order for me to lose. But I am a history teacher and not a math teacher so who knows.

Good luck tonight SC, if it makes you feel better I am on ARI -9.5 big in the real books!

Man I don't do basketball, but you took the pick I wanted and the ARI/SF over doesn't work for my math!!!

[BGboothA]

Alright, I don't like the idea of you being able to cancel your play after my play has started, that 45 minute window or so, pulls my odds down to 50/50 instead of 75/25. So for the sake of probability and Math. (isn't that what handicapping is all about).

CANCEL BOSTON -8

New Pick # 10
Memphis Grizzlie @ Phoenix Suns OVER 196.5 (+100)

Still you gotta win AND I have to lose at this point. You cancel I cancel, so we should be good to go.

[Sinister Cat]

I won't cancel my play (I promise!) No sense in making this a race to take the latest game. If you prefer Boston go for it.

[Sinister Cat]

I guess if I was smart I would take the opposite of whatever you take. Just read the rules and apparently that's allowed (bad rule IMO). That has more appeal than canceling a play if it looks like yours might lose, but still, I don't really like it. I won't cancel or change mine; take what you want.

In that case I would rather have the Boston -8, but I just looked at my clock and I am not sure if that is still a possibility.

Cancel - Phoenix Memphis OVER
reapply
Boston -8

Although its exactly 430 at this point,

[BGboothA]

Looks like Boston won by 7, man, there is a reason I don't bet on Basketball!!!!

Well I guess my hopes comes down to San Fran!

[Sinister Cat]

Yeah just I watched the whole game, you were very unlucky not to get that one, Boston just played unbelievably bad most of the game. Couldn't hit a shot.

Not looking so good for the Cardinals.

[Sinister Cat]

Our match this round has probably been the biggest combination of clutch performance and choke job in all of sport since the Memphis-Kansas game.

Good luck in the next round BG.

Yeah, unfortunately I had what I thought was a gimmie parlay with ARI and the OVER, the OVER was money, but ARI -9.5 apparently wasn't.

And yeah this was one for the ages.
