    Doh, can't win them all I guess! Still was a very nice promo - hope there are more of them. Eventually we have to come out on top (or so I think!).

    Rather curious - how much did the forum lose total on this game?

    So, to sum this up, if he offers one of these, go bet the other team at a sportsbook?

    You guys saying John buried the forum again...well not all of us. Some of us have a clue. You remember what the line was in game 3...and Denver blew the Lakers out and then the line is only Denver -2 last night, hmmmm wonder why, and on top of that you get a multi-million dollar forum owner offering a special line. You Denver backers took the bait If you were on Denver last night, you're the definition of square. And the game wasn't as close as the score indicated, Lakers should've won by DD

    um sorry but my guess is most people "took the bait" on denver at +115 for 500 points and then bet $40 on the lakers +115
    and those same people tried for a middle on +2 on each side and almost got it

    my only regret is not maxing out on la in the 2nd half, looked like it would be tight at half.

    sbr is so damn good at these. as soon as I saw this offered I knew the lakers would win. I should have bet on it but just went to bed instead next time I'm following. they seem to win much more often than lose.

    honestly, this is the first time i remember such a drastic difference on their specials. a lot of people have been saying they are great at these "deals", im not buying hes that much better at setting a line then pinnacle tho because of one game.

    These specials should not be considered sharp plays. They are promotional and intended to be fun. We have won more than we lost but the sample size and the law of variances make the record close to meaningless at best. If you keep playing them you will win in the long run..probably...uh maybe.

    I been here longer than most anyone..since late 06'.

    and Yisman...maybe I ****** up my choice of words, was still a little drunk from yesterday..

    I think I understand a little about betting, a very little. Received hundreds of wires over the years from many people with long names.

    Point is....SBR doesn't offer these specials to fatten your point roll

    Nuggets were laying 2.5 last I checked. Sbr giving you a 4.5 swing. The smart play is to take the gift. Calling someone a square after the game is over because he played the "sucker" line is funny. Like anyone Sharp knows what the outcome of the game will be.

    if someone's going to give me 4 1/2 points for -110 then i'm going to take it 99% of the time

    Correct. They do it because they have a lean and want action on one side rather than another. And they've been pretty lucky thus far.

    However, if someone offers you a line that far off the market and you don't take it, you're probably a square.

    if anyone wants to gift me lines like that regularly, I'd be very happy, because I'd be sure to win in the long run.

    You either take it and gamble, or bet the other side as well and lock in a small profit.

    I'd venture to guess they're gonna continue to be "lucky"..

    My whole game is beating the closing numbers, consistently...but the people running the show here are 99.9999 sharper than the rest...

    Highly doubt it, considering how rare it is for these specials to be offered. SBR John used to regularly do college football specials each Saturday, but he stopped doing those, and it's infrequent to get a special like this otherwise.

    In the long run, the players win.
