Rockets-20.5 +1600 (william hill) (first half) (risking 0.5x to win 8x)

I have thought about my other leans and pretty much given up on them. Good luck to everyone tonight.

[t-wizzle]

Good luck tonight bro.

Yesterday: 1-3, -6.4x
Total: 20-24-1, +17.86x

If I hadn't gotten the best line on Utah last night woulda seriously hurt... But the damage was minimised in the end. Fukking Rockets man. I make that play everytime though - lifetime I was 5-0 or 6-0 or something like that using the coach angle. Shit happens. They actually had 2 possessions to be covering the spread at the end, make no mistake it woulda been almost criminal to win that but given the luck I've had so far this year that could've been one of the games where it turns around. At least I finally won a close call in Utah.

[Seto]

Of course my leans on the Nets and Mavs won. Of fukking course. Obviously glad Dallas pulled it off but the Nets coulda done me a favour and not covered that

[NBA Maniac]

Coach angles works 100%, when new coach is in the bench
Even knowing that i pulled the trigger, F*CK me...

A. Davies didn't play, and OKC didn't cover the spread... Westbrook did his share, but others guys, can't hit the basket....

And got a penetrating PUSH in Jazz game, think Favors missed 1 ft in the end...

Imagine my face when i woke up and watched the score of those 3 games.

I'm stopping for a while... also pissed for not being able to bet in the beginning of the season, where i would have hit a lot of bets...

[Seto]

Nah I've used the angle even without the new coach. This just goes to show no angle is a 100% winner. I'll still do it next time though, no question.

Thunder scored 120 though. I felt the spread would be dicey there. I thought OKC might cover with a late run so I laid off.

I feel your pain. Nothing more frustrating than missing out on winners especially when you go on a bad run right after that.

[Seto]

Probably no plays today. Hoping to have a big day Friday, I haven't looked at the card yet but typically it's the day where I bet the most games.

[Seto]

Nets+9 -110 (betcris) (risking 2.75x to win 2.5x)
Suns-2 -110 (betcris) (risking 2.2x to win 2x)

[Seto]

Wolves+1 -110 (betcris) (risking 3.3x to win 3x)

[Seto]

Heat-20.5 +1200 (william hill) (first half) (risking 0.5x to win 6x)

Random feeling Kings don't show up tonight. I don't feel like laying 9 on that game though so I'm just gonna try this shit.

[RavensFan2k3]

Why first half over full game? Either way good luck

Full game is just +450.

Oh ok gotcha

I did play your leans, thanks. Took it on the chin with Houston and you were spot on with Orlando game. Very tight finishes last night.

Yeah some games just have that feel. I'm bummed about not being able to play on 5Dimes anymore, I often forget about them but I like the largest lead under/over props. Ladbrokes used to do them to but I think they don't anymore.

Pinny and 5Dimes don't take brits anymore (holding out hope Pinny do again soon), and limited to ridiculous amounts on Marathon = no reduced juice for me

[Seto]

Lakers+6.5 -110 (betcris) (risking 2.3x to win 2x)

Nets ml +365 (betcris) (risking 1x to win 3.65x)

Today: 0-1, -0.5x
Total: 20-25-1, +17.36x

[RavensFan2k3]

Wolves+1 -110 (betcris) (risking 3.3x to win 3x)

Wolves have to get their first home win of the season soon right?

[freeeze]

Fukking Rockets man, they're just a bunch of heartless fukks. I fell asleep sometime in the first when they were leading by 5 and woke up at the half seeing them down 9. Couldn't even be bothered to watch the 2nd half, was sure they're done. Shit happens but we'll get the next big one.

Like the Wolves play for tomorrow, Towns should be able to contain the Pistons' biggest weapon - the Drummond/Jackson pick and roll, nice spot for the first win at home. Bulls at GS look like a very likely play for me as well. Haven't had time to look at the other games yet.

[Seto]

Knicks+7.5 -110 (betcris) (risking 5.5x to win 5x)
Knicks ml +260 (betcris) (risking 2x to win 5.2x)

Not much to say here. Until books adjust I'll keep taking them every game.

Yeah I think that's a good play. They're probably dogs because they've sucked thus far at home, but let's be honest here on what these teams have both shown so far this year should Minny be home dogs to this Detroit team? I personally don't think so. This is as good an opportunity as they've had this season to break their duck.

[Seto]

I would've played the Bulls if Golden State had lost last night, probably would've been a hangover going into this game. When they lost their first game last year they lost the next one as well at home to the Spurs.

But now I'm not so sure. Are Golden State really going to be challenged 2 nights in a row? I could see this game being a blowout honestly.

Hmm, not so much this one. Can you tell me about this one because I like Memphis here

Rockets are a streaky team. Even though their last game was an ugly win it still sets them in the right direction and I expect an uptick in their fortunes with the coaching change. Also not very high on Memphis.

[freeeze]

Good luck tonight mate.

Houston won't cover, the line could be higher, like +6 for example (now +4), Memphis will get a huge win here.
Still i wish GL to you!

[Seto]

Good luck tonight mate.

Thanks man, same to you.

It was +4 at most places when I took it. Just found the best line available.

Good luck as well.

[Seto]

I have never seen a team miss as many layups as this Rockets team.

These guys are supposed to be professionals? Unreal.

[Seto]

These Pistons/Wolves and Suns/Nuggets games are just the epitome of games I should NEVER bet. Because I never get them right. When I take the "square" short fave on the road, they don't show up and the home team has a monster effort. When I take the "sharp" home dog, they show exactly why they were dogs by looking like the horrible team they are.

Games between 2 average/bad teams with a tight line = lay off. I should know that by now too. Now maybe the Nuggets will blow the lead like the Wolves did but point stands.

Thank goodness for the Knicks. 6 or 7 straight games I've cashed with them. I don't know why they still aren't getting respect.

[RavensFan2k3]

Knicks again?

[babear83]

if i had extra id ride knicks until books change it or they lose.
