    could the public win anymore tonight?

    I dont remember the last time I saw the public favorites win this much on a tnt thursday. Heat, Clippers, Thunder, Michigan as a dog and FSU as a dog. God I wish this was my first day betting I would of made a killing

    Dude the Heat game was one of the easiest plays I have see on the board this year. The Thunder was pretty easy too. My favorite expression is "square", I will be square all day as long as money keeps rolling into my account.

    lol let's not get ahead of ourselves, the thunder game wasn't THAT easy... they were looking pretty bad going into the 4th quarter...

    but i agree... there's so much trying to "be sharp" here where people only take the underdog for the sake of it.

    They gotta let the square bets win sometimes. Otherwise people wouldn't bet anymore.

    By "square bet" do you mean betting on the dominant team?

    I know want you meant, I just think its funny that people use it as a derogatory term. A lot of time there is a rEason that 93% of the money is on one team.

    hmmmm... good day i guess for it, as i got my ass handed to me yesterday after 2 good nights, so i kept myself from going on tilt... and came back today with the attitude of "i don't give a fuk, i'm getting my fukkn money back". and i succeeded.

    Thank you Heat, Thunder, Mich-Illinois OVER, Kentucky.

    its a weird NBA season.

    tread carefully tomorrow...maybe be patient, just wait for Saturday... I like MSU (fuk the Buckeyes) and UNC.

    funny thing is I dont even think that way. Just use the terminology because I hear it at sbr so much.

    I do tend to fade heavy public bets though.

    You'd be better to fade (certain posters on) the forum. There are too many people on here trying to be "sharp". I'll bet Vegas makes more of its money on wannabe sharps playing big money than your regular Joe.

    This board is running wild with squares tonight.

    Every day is different. Certain days the public wins big time, other days the sharps win.

    Today was one of those days where the public won. It happens.

    Square or sharp, just pick the right side.

    Squares cannot manage money, it has little to do with picking winners. Picking winners at 55% isn't hard, managing money from picking winners is why most people cannot win and will not win. It is the same thing with any financial vehicle in life. Good luck!
