Today: 3-6, +4.77x
Total: 28-33, +13.45x

I'm pissed about that ending for the -4 but whatever. Maybe I should just be happy they didn't throw the game away again as they nearly did. Not a great start this year for the +300 and up plays but I'm sure it'll pick up sooner or later, and at the end of the day the overall record is all that matters.

**Seto** · 11-16-14, 12:45 AM

+250 and up plays are 0-17, -6.03x

Strange because I typically do well with them. Guess it's just the nature of playing those long shots. I hope in a month or so that will be corrected.

**italianbandit** · 11-16-14, 01:40 AM

Nice call on Kings.

**unitedlad** · 11-16-14, 06:58 AM

Keep tearing them apart Seto. Great job.

We got fukked a couple times though at the end of games.

Yeah those plays were a bit lower, Kings ml was +230 and Celtics +210... Actually my range was a bit selective cause I'm 3-4 on +210 to +230 plays and should really be 5-2 so those plays have done good and should be doing great. Lost a real rough one with Pelicans-10.5 +275 against the Hornets 10 days ago or so.

That record does still annoy me a bit though but I can't change what I do based on a 2-3 week sample. Plus which at +500 or whatever all I have to do is hit 2 or 3 and I'm back even.

Just realised I'm 22-11 (66%) on normal spreads

Houston will have a hard time today vs OKC, the OKC public just hate Houston, even more after that injury on R. Westbrook.
They also play tomorrow vs Memphis. As you mentioned before, that line given by bookies is to low, to be true.

**Seto** · 11-17-14, 05:52 AM

Mavs-2.5 -110 (ladbrokes) (risking 1.65x to win 1.5x)

Houston haven't been playing well the last couple games so they might be about to cool down a bit. Still, that's a tough game to bet imo...

Hum... why didn't you pull the trigger ?

Well when I talked about that game in wizzle's thread I did say that I probably wouldn't bet it even if it looked like OKC was the play. I often get pissed when my leans win but honestly I wasn't even close to putting this one in so I'm not too upset about it

I like the Celtics and Heat today but I'm not sure if I will bet either. Might just go with Dallas.

**Seto** · 11-17-14, 01:11 PM

Mavs-1.5 -115 (betcris) (first half) (risking 0.58x to win 0.5x)

I took Suns (-1) yesterday. Is never good have brain melts in 4th qrt, when you face Suns.
Later on will check the card, and see if i like anything elese.

If I do take the Celtics and they're up big in the 4th I might hedge lol. But I'm not really sure if I will take em at this point.

I think BOL have been smoking some good shit again. They have the Kings as only -1.5 home faves against the Pelicans who will be on a b2b and the Bucks as 5.5 home faves to the Knicks

I'm pretty sure both of those are off by at least 1.5-2 pts. I might consider playing at that book but apparently some SBR guys have had payout issues with them in the past, gotta look into that.

memphis has the inside players to hang with howard and good defensive stoppers for harden. really like memphis in this spot to make a statement and win by 10+

rockets have been playing like shit since mexico and harden looks spent already

exactly i think they have a great matchup against rockets... i dont like that beverley is back but still like memphis..i expect rockets to shot better then last night but it should be memphis all day... they got away against phily and last night..but not tonight imo.. Good luck..

**KRIT** · 11-17-14, 02:27 PM

I agree Seto, the Memphis line looks pretty sharp, I think Memphis wins but could come down to fts.

I like Pelicans tonight regardless if Aldridge plays or not.

Bucks are now only -3 lol. That 5.5 line was comical. Opened at 3.5.

Kings opened -3.

Both off by 1.5-2 (ok i said at least) as I predicted

**Seto** · 11-18-14, 09:04 AM

Good call on Memphis guys. Hard to believe they're 10-1.

Looking at their schedule I guess not. You think they win 56 like 2 years ago? I had them more around 48-50.

Anyway it's still early.

They should win 50+. Randolph and Gasol got hurt last year right?

Gasol missed an extended period yeah, Conley I think missed 5 or 6 straight games at one point. Z-Bo was always healthy.

The Gasol injury did hurt them no question. Just didn't have them necessarily winning that many again, I guess we'll see. They're off to the same start as their 56-win season anyway.

I like the Knicks tonight. Shitty card though.

It's always been a great book for me.

Good to know since you're one of the guys who I can trust to be genuine around here.

I remember that whole nonsense when JJ got banned and left for 8 months or whatever with BOL supposedly owing some guy 15K. Might have all been bullshit for all I know.

**Seto** · 11-18-14, 07:31 PM

Lakers ml +360 (5dimes) (risking 0.5x to win 1.8x)

Not taking the spread. Feeling a Hawks blowout or Lakers win.

**Seto** · 11-18-14, 07:35 PM

Mavs ml -120 (paddy power) (risking 3.6x to win 3x)

I just have a very weird feeling that I can't explain and I don't feel like laying the 1.5. It's stupid and contrary to everything I believe in in NBA betting, but whatever.

I guess part of it is because I would hate being pissed about them winning if they win by 1 as a fan. Bet is absolutely not a homer bet though. I typically do well with Dallas.

**lakerboy** · 11-18-14, 08:02 PM

i like washington there but good luck
