    2K to 10K - Roag's 2011 WNBA Project

    OK guys, this is where I'll be posting all my 2011 WNBA plays. We're starting with a bankroll of 2K and the goal is to turn it into 10K (or more) by the end of the season (including playoffs).

    We'll have some 2H bets also so if you want to get on board for the ride make sure your book offers those. BookMaker, 5Dimes, The Greek and Pinnacle all do.

    The season opens on June 3, for the rest of this month leading up to the first game I'll be posting various things that will help those who have never bet WNBA what to expect, plus some general info for everyone on the upcoming teams/players.

    LOL I think I'll just go all in with the 2K on the first bet, hit that, then all-in with the 2nd bet, hit that, then bet about 3K to get to 10K and be done with the season!

    The Lynx will be an interesting team to watch. Tremendous talent with Seimone Augustus (if she stays healthy) and Lindsay Whalen, then you add Moore into the mix. It may take them a few games to get it together, but this team has great potential.

    Well we're killing soccer right now so that's clearly my best sport, but I've done very well in basketball over the years and have made money in WNBA the past 3 years.

    I am looking forward to watching what you are doing in here. I will be embarking on my first season capping WNBA, so I will be checking in here for some tips. I prefer totals... do the same totals capping factors from the NBA transfer over to the WNBA? What are some things to look for with respect to WNBA totals? Thanks and Good luck.

    Hey LTA, good to see you in here. I love WNBA totals, I made a LOT of money on the Phoenix Mercury overs 2 years ago and last year mainly on the Sparks/Dream/Liberty/Mercury and Lynx game totals.

    WNBA totals are harder to cap than NBA because of the inconsistent play in the league even from the better teams/players. But there are patterns that emerge after the first 2-3 weeks and with your capping skills you'll see them. Of course, I'll be posting the things I track here also especially how I use the opening line and subsequent line movement.

    Thanks and good luck to you also.

    I'm with you bro. Let's get at this WNBA goldmine this summer! I'm personally feeling totals as well, but might play some spreads & ML's here & there.

    You will see very volatile lines on certain WNBA games, mainly the ones that RAS puts out a play on. Sometimes this will work in our favor when we are opposite their play(s), and sometimes it will work against us. However, it only works against us if RAS is on the right side to begin with. Oftentimes they are not and I'm sure we will be on the other side of them quite a bit.

    You can expect everything - ML dog plays (we will only play the ML for the favorite if the line is -1.5 or less), sides and totals, but probably weighted more heavily towards totals than anything else.

    We will also have 2H plays because there is $ to be made on WNBA 2H's.

    Free throw shooting is a very important part of WNBA wagering especially for 2H plays. It is not unusual to see a team down by 10 points with 30 seconds left, with no chance to win, and still fouling until the buzzer sounds. It will drive you nuts if you're on the under! So expect the unexpected if you decide to torment yourself by watching these games!

    Hey Roag,

    Looking forward to another WNBA season with you. I tailed you last season and made some $$$.
