I think Cal just blew that 1st half bet.

[woodyman]

i like Wright State (-3)

I think Cal just blew that 1st half bet.

Sorry about that one jaymac. At least it was a push... I see the score at 36-28.

I'm looking at Washington State for the 2H and probably Houston.

[flavo-ice]

flavo? any thoughts? Initially I don't like the st joes game at all. spread is too high. but I like wright state, james madison....and a small bet on north eastern.

what do you think?

like n'eastern and jmu. didn't get to look at wright st.

[jaymac82980]

The Kid, never apologize to me for a pick. If I didn't like it I wouldnt have taken it. You may have turned me on to the pick, but it was my choice to make the wager. Thanks though. Hey, it looked good for a while. We'll win more tonight!

I do like Washington State in the 2H. I think they pull it out at home against a short-handed USC team without Lewis.

[jaymac82980]

I missed the Northeastern bet, damn local's site was a couple minutes fast.

I think I might throw a few bucks on uconn, just so I can watch what my money does. 50 max on this one.

[jaymac82980]

Kid, sucks to be me, my bookie turned off 2nd half wagers on his site...I iwas the king of college footbal 2nd half wagers last year! now, i dont even get to see the lines. bummer.

[ESH]

Is Davidson 1st half is still a play?

[The_Kid]

Dang, that is a bummer. So you only get full game lines and 1H lines?

[jaymac82980]

yup.

[jaymac82980]

ESH that gonzaga 1st half should still be a good play, check 5dimes or thegreek to see if there is a moneyline. if not, you're good. I know I'm playing the zags 1st half $500. I played the other secret bets for that much, so why change the rules halfway through the game?

[jaymac82980]

so flavo, i took jm for 100, and wright state for 100. like I said before, i will be taking the zags 1st h for 500, and I like ck's play on stanford 1st h for 500 too. stanford is a monster. now. I will be throwing some loot on nba too, and i have already said on who, i dont want to jinx myslef. so lets hope for the best, and get some cash...

[vassman86]

I took a look at all of the CBB games played today to see if I can spot some first half trends. One thing I noticed is that every double-digit favourite (for the game) covered the first half spread.
Duke, Missouri, Marquette, Creighton, Butler, UAB, Cornell, Temple, Arkansas State. A perfect 9/9 so far.
I've only played CK's SP so far, but if someone can go back through the week and check how DD fav's have been doing in the first half, that'd be nice.

Edit:
Jan 22 - Playing DD-fav's (for the game) in the first half 6-4
Jan 21 - DD-fav's (for the game) in the first half 8-5
Jan 17 - DD-fav's (for the game) in the first half 13-10

[The_Kid]

Davidson needs to pick it up right now. Let's go Wildcats! Just give it to Curry and clear out!

[peterpan19]

I dont know who it said, but someone said we should double up in 2nd half if secret play is a lost in 1st ?

edit:anyone update on davidson ?

[woodyman]

good stuff on davidson closing out the first half well!

[jaymac82980]

anyone know for sure if there is no moneyline on gonzaga 1st half???

[peeiempee]

No way there's a ML on gongzaga its a 15pt spread. They stop assigning ML at 9.5 or 10. Good job on Davidson too CK. I hope I get to thank you two more times for the night.

[peterpan19]

jay
pinny has none, better trust them

[jaymac82980]

flavo, you find any other good games?

[jaymac82980]

thanks peterpan. i took the zags -15 for 500

[MVFC182]

I played Knicks/Sixers Over, so far so good, 54 a piece with still 5 mins left in the half.

[jaymac82980]

flavo. what do you think about TCU getting a point at home? similar ATS trends for both teams, and TCU is at home? weird.

[peeiempee]

The SP have been doing so well today that I forgot to play the magic. Well gonna play Sac for the Morrison A bet and buying a hook. See how that goes and might double up on Portland after

[ANDYW15]

I hate the NY Knicks. They live and die by the 3. Sixers need to defend the fcuking perimeter

[flavo-ice]

Small play on lsu for me. By the way, utah st. down to 8 now. Not sure if books are playing games with that one or not

[jaymac82980]

pimp, you like the kings +7?

[jaymac82980]

Flavo, might just be that the betting public are idiots. they see hawaii at home getting 8 or more points, and they see dollar signs. Remember there are lots of people that just bet on the trends, and have no idea why. I still think Utah kills this one. The line dropping may be a gift.

[The_Kid]

Someone needs to put a hand in Chalmer's face! He's 6-6 and they're leaving him wide open

[jaymac82980]

orlando 1st half is killing me! i may regret that bet.

[cocknocker]

Davidson got it done for us 22-4 ats CK secret plays

[woodyman]

damnit how did magic blow that 6pt lead...

[jaymac82980]

flavo, i think i may put a little on LSU myself

[Sloanie29]

cmon Magic! whats everyone think about them covering?
