Leans for Monday 1/12/09

[nonsense48]

DEX, could it be your bad streak is a thing of the past? let's hope so buddy

[Dexter]

haha - that bad streak had a lot to do with aqueduct my friend.

[cheesehead004]

Damnit, I took a piss and came back and was too late to pick Utah

[pho3nix32]

Let's see, Milwaukee -3 straight like that. The offerings of

lambogb
SharkMerc
ram1502
vassman86

nonsense48
bumppinee

....and i like:


Washington/Milwaukee over 191.5 (Pho3nix32's pick) if roasthawg likes it, I like it!



Money management for a budget of $1500.00 today. I have to be tight with how I disperse this money with 5 picks.... Alright, I have reached my maximum $1500.00 plateau, well actually $1400.00 I stll have $100.00 to go

My final plays are already credited for the sponsors

Boston-9.5
Milwaukee-3
Milwaukee/Washington over 191.5
Portland-2
Utah-9.5

So with 5 games I have $250.00 smackaroos apiece to put on each one, except Boston-9.5 which I played for $400.00. All of which leaves me a nice crisp $100.00 bill left to work with, and this little money can't be taken lightly, but I have to find a way to spend it. $1500.00, $1400.00 used already. What am I to do now?

I want a straight first half play... or maybe I should just go dumb and parlay all of my plays at -130 with it....hmm or tease them all with the Knicks+15.... You know what I like...I like the second thing....

I am doing a -130 per side parlay with my total left alone

Bucks-1.5
Celtics-9
Knicks+12 (The line movement in this one is hard to overlook put I can't play it straight)
Jazz-9
Bucks/Wizards over 191.5
Portland-1.5

$50 to win $1604.70

Ordinarily I would only put $25.00 play on it, but what the hell...These aren't my plays, they're yours and so I have just that much faith in the group as a whole to cash me that ticket, so I'm going all in. I need some more ATVI stocks... A couple hundred more would be nice. I want you boys and girls to get me that stock money, lol!

And now, I still have $50.00 left to spend. I need something hot and quick! Somebody give me a first quarter pick so I can double up and get me some halftime money!

I'm serious....


Somebody give me a good 1st quarter wager for this last $55.00

sorry guys...my pick bombed...

[nonsense48]

3-0 with2 to go...yes

[cheesehead004]

With the Knicks 2H hitting, I am now 4-0. If OU hangs on, and Portland as well, I will be 7-0 on the day.

Let's get em baby.

[Dexter]

whoaa - nonsense...i see you switched up and went with the raptors. last night you were on boston...nice

[nonsense48]

DEX, i learned long ago to leave those oat eating bastards alone. i go out to the track for dinner and some very cheap fun once in a while.

[jjusttiff]

They missed like 3 3's in a row to end the game!

yeah what a bumma! they lost my all up...but hey, there is always tomrw!..

[nonsense48]

DEX, you swayed me buddy. thanks. yep i did buddy. i thought we were cooked with ot tho.

[jjusttiff]

lets start 2mrws thread! LOL

well hope you all took something home...thats it from me...im going for a swim! yipeeeeeeeee

[CTS5]

Who know Ukich was amazing? Boston couldve easily covered in OT. Oh well, another loss piles on.

[Dexter]

well dex, looks like we agreed on the boston game, and won. Congratulations on a good pick, and congrats for not changing your mind based on popular opinion.

congrats bud...the only thing that will make me change my mind is when the pimp boyz, or mr cocknocker comes out swingin heavy. other than that, i enjoy capping my own games...

[cheesehead004]

$420 on the LA Kings to win SU. Hoo-rah

[Smacksmiter]

Texas trying to comeback and cover for me on Oklahoma! Here we go, TEXAS! Here we go!

[nonsense48]

[SamsNCharge99]

i hope everyone here signed up for the next contest. A lot of scrubs signed up, I want the best of the best, not freaking rookies.

[Karayilan9]

Looks like a good day, nice tips CK great New York tip aswell!!

[cheesehead004]

Well, my Oklahoma and 2 Portland bets are locked up at this point. I am now 7-0 on the day, I shoulda known it was gonna be a good day when I totally lucked out with Louisville in OT.

Now if the Kings win, it will be 8-0 and the best gambling day of my life. Get em, LA.

[Smacksmiter]

i hope everyone here signed up for the next contest. A lot of scrubs signed up, I want the best of the best, not freaking rookies.

Dude...when are you going to get it?? There is no room here in THIS thread for any type of insults...veiled or open... sheesh.... I don't know why anyone would want to do the contest knowing that they would be subjecting themselves to that kind of stuff every day...

If you want the best of the best...act with some class and you will attract the best of the best automatically...

[ram1502]

Early leans tomorrow for Bobcats +7 and Nuggets -5.5. Write ups later....

[ClockCleaner]

Hey guys, anyone know how teams fare ats on the final game of winless road trips?

Heard the announcers say the Hornets should have never lost to the Knicks tonite. They added that this was they're final game of a road trip that they were winless on. Then I said to myself, thats the reason they won idiots. They probably would have beat most teams tonite with the exception of maybe the true elite teams in the league which the Hornets are not one of. Think this would be a good angle with teams playing hard to get at least one win or at least cover the spread.

[bumppinee]

great job cappin, looks like i will finsh the day 3-1 utah/pacers over 220 and portland -3 looks like a done deal.

[nonsense48]

you don't ever figure that angle?

[shoebox]

Well OK is gonna get the cover, and after ND imploded in OT, I hope the jazz can hang
on!!

BTW still pissed about ND

[cheesehead004]

great job cappin, looks like i will finsh the day 3-1 utah/pacers over 220 and portland -3 looks like a done deal.

congrats to you as well sir. i hope that pacers over hits for ya, even if you are a Nole, haha jk

[nonsense48]

4-0 with the jazz to go. here we go

[Dexter]

i hope everyone here signed up for the next contest. A lot of scrubs signed up, I want the best of the best, not freaking rookies.

sam - keep it with people we know that are cool....not with guys who can turn into trolls after 1 bad day....

[vassman86]

Oh wow, I just checked the score: Raptors won the first half outright, and covered the +6 spread. Sweet! Blazers cash too. Waiting on the Jazz now to cap off a strong start to the week

[cocknocker]

Portland second half is over! Got another $250.00 back from that with my risk money attached to it. Also got the 2nd half money as well $100.00.

So so far it's

Boston-9.5 Loss $400.00
Bucks-3 win $250.00
Nets-7 2nd half win $100.00
Portland-2 win $250.00
Portland+.5 2nd half win $100.00
Utah-10 pending $250.00
Utah-3.5 2nd half pending $100.00


$400.00 lost $700.00 won with $350.00 pending. Let's go Jazz!

[SamsNCharge99]

IDC whose in, I just don't want all these people that have like 50 posts. If you look at my thread for the new tourney, that's who everyone is.

Smack....You think you're soooo good, do the tourney

[cheesehead004]

I hope most of you took Oklahoma today. In yesterday's thread I correctly identified Texas as a fraud and it was clear OU was the easy pick. Good stuff

[jaymac82980]

Sam, that is not cool, did you call my parents scrubs!?!?! haha, just kidding - dude, get over yourself. you got so worked up yesterday about something you took as an insult... worry about the spreads.
