I wasn't really considering betting it but was just surprised it had started.

Card as a whole looks tough to me. Very watchable games though as you said.

Suns+10 -114 (pinnacle) (risking 2.28x to win 2x)
Suns ml +400 (pinnacle) (risking 0.5x to win 2x)

Not buying the movement.

Total: 192-189-6, +93.97x

GL with the Texas two-fer.
Just couldn`t get a read on tonights action.
Hit college for a couple games, small, 1-1.

**Seto** · 03-11-14, 09:41 PM

Absolutely retarded bet on Houston.

SO mad at myself right now.

**No coincidences** · 03-11-14, 10:16 PM

I'm on the Mavs too. They're fvcking sleepwalking through this game.

I'm not too sure what I did today. 2 of the worst bets I've made in ages. I'd decided to lay off the card yesterday too. Every time I decide I'm laying off the card and I end up making bets I lose. Every fukking time.

As for Dallas yeah I don't know. I figured after getting away with a couple they would play freely today and GS has a MASSIVE game tomorrow vs the Clippers. But clearly I picked the wrong team to "show up" today.

**Seto** · 03-11-14, 10:40 PM

Tomorrow

Grizzlies-3 -105 (pinnacle) (risking 3.15x to win 3x)

Just one of those square plays that will hit IMO.

**t-wizzle** · 03-11-14, 11:21 PM

Good value on Portland tomorrow don't you think?

Problem is, you'd have to back a struggling team against a hot team.

I think they get smoked tbh. I mean maybe we're at a point where the line has just moved a tad too much and there's value on Portland but I really don't see them winning again in San Antonio this year. They're just going back to who I thought they were.

I'm actually contemplating doing something I never do - teasing the Spurs and Clippers down and playing them together - but I don't think I will, gotta stay true to what works for me.

**t-wizzle** · 03-11-14, 11:48 PM

Nets @ Heat is the early tv game. BOL has a line of 8 but gotta wait and see what Pinny releases.

Charlotte/Washington is a sneaky interesting game.

8 sounds about right to me.

Probably one of those games where Miami pulls away late and the spread ends up being decided by free throws and shit.

Could be a decent game but I'm not quite sure if I have an angle there

I actually find the EC harder to figure out than the West in general.

**Seto** · 03-11-14, 11:54 PM

Today: 0-5, -4.61x
Total: 192-194-6, +89.36x

No complaints. Just one of those days where I make bad plays.

Maybe Nets 1H is worth a look.

Warriors are playing well but that could end tomorrow night.

I think so too. Huge game given the implications in the division and the rivalry developing between these 2 teams. I think GS may have blown their load tonight.

Warriors and Spurs could be plays for me but I'm just a tad uneasy laying that many points. Solution would be to tease but it's not usually what I do. And when I get away from what I do bad things tend to happen to me...

I kinda like Boston but I've decided to stop betting on dogshit teams like that...

**Seto** · 03-12-14, 04:06 PM

Heat-9 -105 (pinnacle) (risking 2.1x to win 2x)
Spurs-8 -104 (pinnacle) (risking 1.04x to win 1x)
Clippers-6.5 -105 (pinnacle) (risking 1.05x to win 1x)

Probably like too many faves but we'll see what happens I guess.

I've changed my mind a bit on that game I think Miami blows them out... gl.

**DOM-Ganador** · 03-12-14, 08:49 PM

Had the Heat @-1 , last leg, they were home, against the old farts who already beat them 2x this season.
Really thought they were going to give a shit for the stretch run.

Unfortunately for you, it's still the regular season, which means Miami doesn't give a shit lol.

**Seto** · 03-12-14, 08:59 PM

That last play was a joke. Wade not calling the timeout immediately costing them 3 seconds and a timeout (which coulda kinda come in handy) then turning the ball over on the inbounds. smh.

**Seto** · 03-12-14, 11:59 PM

Today: 2-2, -3.25x

Small plays won, big plays lost. Shit happens.

**Seto** · 03-13-14, 11:34 AM

Thunder-21.5 +240 (william hill) (risking 0.52x to win 1.25x)
Thunder-26.5 +650 (william hill) (risking 0.19x to win 1.25x)

Thunder-20.5 +500 (william hill) (first half) (risking 0.7x to win 3.5x)

**Seto** · 03-13-14, 11:14 PM

Today: 2-1, +1.8x
Total: 196-197-6, +87.91x

Shame the only one WH actually let me lay some good cash on lost. Wasn't far from winning too. Still good enough.

**Seto** · 03-14-14, 12:28 AM

Leaning Jazz, Cavs and Raptors tomorrow but unsure whether I'll play any.

**Seto** · 03-14-14, 12:23 PM

Raptors-1 +102 (5dimes) (risking 1.5x to win 1.53x)
Jazz+5 -105 (pinnacle) (first half) (risking 1.05x to win 1x)
Cavs+9.5 -108 (pinnacle) (risking 0.81x to win 0.75x)

**NBA Maniac** · 03-14-14, 08:01 PM

Seto why would some1 fault a player at 3 point line, when that player is 1/8 from the field ??
STUPID T. Alen.
( i know you are on Toronto), but still this is a stupid play from T. Alen lol

Because NBA players are idiots? They ALWAYS foul 3-pt shooters. It drives me fukking crazy.

the guy had 5 TO and 4 PF, what was he doing in the field... isn't supposed to coachs see this kind of stuff ?

**Seto** · 03-16-14, 02:30 PM

LeBron James over 27.5 points AND the Heat to win +188 (william hill) (risking 1x to win 1.88x) - (0.5x on +200 and 0.5x on +175 due to limits)

**Seto** · 03-16-14, 05:07 PM

I'm fukking disgusted. Guy didn't give a fuk today and still had 24. Just needed 4 points and he blew 2 easy layups. Fukk him.

**DOM-Ganador** · 03-16-14, 05:28 PM

Weird being a TV game. Think he had 11 1Q, so 17 in the next 3 would have covered.

Had them ML and for a good part of the game they were definately outplayed.
3rd leg of my only bet tonight is Cleve +12 (bought a hook)

I thought about the -5 and thought about taking them live. Talk about everything going wrong on 1 game.

He had 22 going into the 4th. Scored just 2 in the 4th despite sitting for just like 20 seconds. He just looked like he didn't give a fuk and let Wade run the show.
