If a gambler does flat bets, then yes, he should keep is winning percentage as high as possible.
In his case he is using a different strategy, that is working fine for him. Good to him.

That doesn't mean your strategy isn't also good. It is just different aproaches by different people.

Seto i think i should have waited for a better line live in Pelicans game

**Vinnie Paz** · 12-20-14, 08:50 PM

Pelicans are a joke. Blown out at home by a team off a 3OT game

Would not have mattered.

I bit live on these idiots. I don't regret it much cause that was the plan but it sucks.

Gave back yesterday's OKC money.

Although I'm gonna get back my pre-game money from yesterday, so essentially I'm breaking even over the last 2 days be it on live plays or pre-game plays. Still this day sucks.

Theyre a bunch of clowns. They are just a slightly better version of the Pistons. Their team is full of losers like Holiday, Evans and Eric Gordon.

Spurs played well, you have to give them credit. Pop had his guys ready and had the perfect gameplan.

Dirk had an awful shooting night too which doesn't help. Rondo didn't have a spectacular debut but all in all I thought he was solid enough and he will improve for sure. Monta is just so fukking good in the 4th. If he can make those open corner 3s like he did today him and Rondo on the court together won't be a problem at all.

This was not a great game by Dallas but there were some positives, most important one being the win. I took them live when they were down 12 and got most of my Pelicans losses back so I'm happy about that. Ended up winning 21 bucks on the night, won 125 in here and lost 104 live.

Today: 1-0, +1.25x
Total: 72-134-1, +12.99x

Miami should be a play for me tomorrow. Still undecided on when I book it. It shouldn't matter anyway they'll win this game by 8 or so at least in my mind.

Memphis should beat Cleveland too.

Yeah I had that thought process too, looks like grizz didn't feel like defending gave up 60 percent shooting wow. That can't even be put on zbo since he isn't really a defensive guy.

**Seto** · 12-22-14, 08:15 AM

Will update the record later been quite busy and will be today too. Heat came thru so still a winning day.

On Houston as well. Let's hope Aldridge doesn't go off for 45.

**oldscho0led** · 12-22-14, 11:02 AM

Damn Seto love your bets today.

**Vinnie Paz** · 12-22-14, 11:38 AM

How you feel about the mavs tonight? Kinda wanna play spurs but probably leave that alone

Mavs-4 -107 (risking 2.14x to win 2x)

**Vinnie Paz** · 12-22-14, 10:09 PM

Mavs trade for rondo and all of a sudden can't score

This isn't baseball where you can just plug a guy into a lineup. Will probably take at least a month for Mavs to gel with Rondo. I've never paid attention to this, but I bet teams who add a starting PG mid-season struggle first few weeks.

**Seto** · 12-22-14, 10:41 PM

What the actual fukk was that in chicago? That woulda been like the worst beat ever.

Takihg timeouts down 11 with 18 seconds to go smh. Bulls actually made that look less useless with their bs.

**Seto** · 12-22-14, 10:43 PM

Mavs are just playing a bad game against a hot team. This is basically a carbon copy of the miami game early in the year.

**Seto** · 12-22-14, 11:12 PM

Yesterday: 3-2, +0.93x
Today: 6-1, +8.27x

**t-wizzle** · 12-22-14, 11:15 PM

Seto pal is it bad that I'm looking forward to Christmas mainly for the games?

**Seto** · 12-22-14, 11:20 PM

Looking at the hornets and bulls tomorrow. Maybe the mavs and clippers as well.

Shame I didn't see charlotte opened at 6.5, I woulda taken that early since I was pretty sure they would win easily tonight. Now it looks like I will have to settle for a 5.5 line or something.

Don't blame you too much

Lockout year when the season opened on Xmas that was almost the only thing I cared about that day

It's good that the only uninteresting one is the one I might still be out for (well bulls lakers might be shit too kobe looks gassed these days). Rest of the night should be fun especially if miami have at least 1 of wade and bosh.

**t-wizzle** · 12-22-14, 11:41 PM

Haha I mean I'm looking forward to the festivities but we keep it pretty low key so I always look forward to the games.

**Seto** · 12-22-14, 11:51 PM

Bulls+3.5 +100 (skybet) (risking 1.25x to win 1.25x) - just like the other day with my charlotte bet with sky i wanted 150 but 125 seems to be the number with these guys. It's ok I'm happy with the size at 125. Hopefully the same result as that bet.

I'm not a religious person so since I'm not a 12 year old looking forward to the presents anymore, that tends to be one of main attractions of the day, along with seeing the family.

Xmas period is a huge soccer period in the uk too, 4 games in 10 days or so, a lot of fans look forward to the xmas period for that.

**Seto** · 12-22-14, 11:59 PM

Hornets+6.5 -120 (skybet) (risking 1.2x to win 1x)

Dunno if I will touch dallas or lac those are tough games. Won't have any big plays tomorrow for sure.

**oldscho0led** · 12-23-14, 12:15 AM

With you on the Bulls. I love Orlando -3 tomorrow against the Celtics also.

**punkisnotdead** · 12-23-14, 11:39 AM

What do you think about Thunder ?
