    Winning Margins

    Wouldn't recommend tailing as I'm fairly confident this will be a losing technique hence I will be betting small. Basically looking for games with two roughly evenly matched teams and/or two low scoring teams and predict the winning margin on the team I'm leaning towards. Also will go with my gut for some of them. Will use 1 unit to keep the tracking simple. Basically the team has to win by at least 3 and no more then 9 points. Again I don't think this will be a winning technique but its kinda fun and worth a shot.

    LA 3-6 +450
    LA 7-9 +700
    SA 3-6 + 450
    SA 7-9 + 650
    GS 3-6 +450
    GS 7-9 +700

    Yah, I mainly use Bet 365. I'm really contemplating doing a hockey one as well. 12 of the 13 games yesterday were decided by 1 or 2 goals only. It's not a winning strategy in the long run, its more for fun for me. Best way is obviously to find value and pound but with this approach a little streak can payoff big in the long run. I did this with NE and the NYG this past Sunday and hit a very nice parlay (NE to win 1-6 and NYG to win 1-6 @ +2400). I'm going big with NE to win 1-6 and NE to win 7-12 on Superbowl if anyone cares. My rational is basically lines are so sharp in sports handicapping why not use them to your advantage, kinda like making the bookies do the work. Its just a random approach that I think I might succeed at, but most likely not haha. Good for now, but I'm sure after a few wekks I'll be in the red. But you never know!

    I had already locked in spurs -1 before I'd seen your thread. I should of hedged but I guess I was kind of hoping you would miss thT one lol! I'm putting money in 365 on Monday and will follow some of your Plays. Going to start betting slot more dog ML and live lines as I think a lot of the value are hidden in there. Especially these winning margins. I mean the numbers don't lie your killing Em!

    Don't like taking road favorites, but am on fire lately, so against my better judgment I will take LA. Hopefully my streak continues and I hit another. Still jacked being up 28 Units with this approach in 4 days!

    It would be 10-13, 14-16, and 17-20. I personally don't like taking big home favorites, could easily be a backdoor cover or huge blowout. I prefer to stay with games where the spreads around 6 or less. Thx for the advice tho. Hope it hits.

    bet365. My favorite book, never have had a single problem withdrawing or depositing. Live Action is unbelievably addicting, especially in the NBA, but I work late so kinda sucks for me.

    Betting against any road underdog coming off of a home game is 58-26, 69.0 percent ATS this season.

    Betting against any road underdog coming off of two or more straight up wins is 26-8, 76.5 percent ATS this season.
    As of thursday

    Thanks to LT profits

    Didn't expect the Knicks to suck as much as they did, ah well can't win them all. CHA made a great comeback but all for nothing, and I should of known better to bet against slight home dogs.

    Almost all of the games today could qualify for a play, so gonna be either a big day or a big losing one. I do like the fact that 10-13 is another 4 points as opposed to 3 so ima add that today. Staying away from the DEN game, too high scoring for me and don't like ORL for some reason. Fully expect the LAK game to be within 9 points so kinda taking both sides haha. 15 units at play, basically have to hit a minimum of two to semi-break even.

    Free throws won me the MIA game but lost me the DAL game so can't be too upset. 4th quarters were terrible for me in both the BOS and DAL games. Terrible collapses. But overall not a terrible night, but still a losing 1.

    You gotta get rid of the 10-13 plays. Too many sides that way and will really diminish your profits in the long run as its too many plays. 3-7 and 7-9 is good

    Haha, I was actually just thinking that after todays results. I'm still tinkering with this system. I definitely won't be doing 3 plays that often unless I'm on a big dog in the future. It just that 4 point cushion versus the 3 seems monumental at times haha. After the NY HOU game on Sat I thought about adding it beause I woulda won there and I think one more earlier. Thanks for the advice tho.

    Hoping the OKC LAC is just like OKC vs GSW a few days ago and OKC win a close one. UTA POR should go down to the wire, so I'ma just play the home side. Think things repeat like yesterday, DAL wins a close one, and SA loses a close one hence the DAL and MEM plays.

    UTA 3-6 +500
    UTA 7-9 +900
    OKC 3-6 +450
    OKC 7-9 +750
    MEM 3-6 +450
    MEM 7-9 +650
    DAL 3-6 +450
    DAL 7-9 +750

    That sucks, I wish you tailed fully, would only be down two units at worst, still an outside shot of being up if OKC gets there shit together. Get em next time.

    Think BOS rebounds after there close home loss. Think TOR plays well again like they did in NJ but come up a bit short as ATL aint NJ. Using past results I really like GSW as well, but think I'ma just hold with these two plays.

    BOS 3-6 +450
    BOS 7-9 +700
    ATL 3-6 +450
    ATL 7-9 +650
