genero · 04-18-09, 02:32 PM

thanks im already 0-1

hels · 04-18-09, 02:45 PM

without OT chi/bos was under... sh*t happens...

but wtf with the cavs/pistons ??????? I know it's still early but Cleveland's D hasn't shown up yet... I predicted Detroit wouldn't score over 80... so much for that right now

Why are you using Wikipedia as a source?

hels · 04-18-09, 03:02 PM

No, I was just wondering because I don't trust Wikipedia.

Looks like 0-2 for unders in game 1 so far

hels · 04-18-09, 03:18 PM

Game isn't over yet, Detroit isn't going to have motivation coming out of the break.

genero · 04-20-09, 11:00 AM

yeah, now i am 1-7 on unders in game 1's thanks

what the opinion on game 2's ??? LOL

HoulihansTX · 04-20-09, 11:25 AM

Take unders in game 1...wow thanks nastradamus....fcuking idiot.

LT Profits · 04-20-09, 11:49 AM

Hey don't shoot the messenger, the guy was 100% correct. Historically, the Unders have done great in Game 1s.

The fact that the Under went 1-7 this round doesn't change things much.

I just noticed this thread and have not ever tried something like this but...

The people who followed this thread and lost had something change! Their bankroll ouch!

If a 1-7 stretch wipes out your bankroll, then you are overbetting.

Unders are always worth a closer look in Game 1s, and that should not change in future rounds.

I believe the totals will be inflated in second games. I'm hammering the unders this round.

Great point!

Just think...we have guys getting wiped out on a stretch of one game!

aren't you the guy following machine choice and getting completely wiped out? There used to be quite a few followers...most have bailed..you are brave but your bankroll must be hurting....his slump has been 2 months!

HoulihansTX · 04-21-09, 12:28 PM

Someone needs to take this thread behind the woodshed, and kill it swiftly.

Actually, I won with the Spurs OVER yesterday.

LT Profits · 04-21-09, 12:52 PM

And this thread is specifucally for Game 1s only, so we have to wait until next round for the next set of games. Last night's results are irelevant.

well this guys said the UNDERS would still be good bets in future rounds, and they are NOT, since switching to overs im winning again

and yeah the machine choice blows

Well of course it depends on what the totals are. If the Overs keep scorching, the books will increase the totals and the Unders will gain value. Everything is cyclical in this game.

genero · 04-23-09, 12:02 PM

bet all overs again last nite and 2-1 the profits keep coming you guys keep spouting unders and i will keep taking overs, only 3 games under so far, and no sign it will stop now

LT Profits · 04-23-09, 12:55 PM

But again, you have to consider the totals. If the books inflate a total to, say, 199 in a game that should be 196, you can't just automatically bet the Over just because it has been winning.

Mr KLC · 04-23-09, 01:25 PM

The Rangers have been an "over machine" this year. I think they've only been under only once or twice.

genero · 04-24-09, 11:28 AM

yeah like last night!! thanks for that,

the overs finnally lost in nba last night but they will come back big tonite
