    if ur a pro (especially a non-American with a Pinny account), points are great...they convert to sportsbook cash (with just 1x roll at Pinny, 5x anywhere else) at the rate of 15points to the USD...so the daily 12 points is 80c...making $25 a month and $300 a year...for doing nothing but what u'r already doing anyhow (making at least 1 post a day)...and you can bet them at the SBR sportsbook (up to a $-equivalent of about 33.33) when the DSI-cloned price is right...if i want to bet $100 on something SBR has a good price on, i put the max 500 points on it...and then the remaining $66.67 at a real $-book...(using the free-play points u get from the trivia quizzes whenever you use the sportsbook works to effectively better the price even more)

    Knicks can go suck a fat one. Seriously, officially the worst team in the NBA. Can't even tease those idiots to +3. Unbelievable..

    American Football and BasketBall are the most painful damn things to watch...over-officiated and ZERO-flow during the decisive last few minutes...with a spread or total bet on it's like having your teeth pulled without anaesthetic one at a time...

    only North-American team-sport that's watchable (in the same way that Rugby or Soccer is...flowing till the final whistle) is Ice-Hockey...

    i'll bet on BB and FB...but no-one's gonna force me to watch it...i'd rather watch paint dry for 35 minutes than the last "two minutes" of a basketball game that takes the same amount of time with all the fouls, time-outs, TV-timeouts, play-reviews...and whatever other excuse there is for interrupting the flow of the game...annoying as hell

    Canada...but i never liked BB or FB...over-officiated (and in the case of FB, over-manned and over-padded) annoying crap...

    fell in love with the Rugby League recently...along with ice-hockey the cream of the team-sports as far as hard-hitting yet smooth-flowing "eye candy" goes...

    ah ok, well Canadians love ice hockey. You start following League due to the world cup and Sando? I'm a Union boy, but can understand the love for League due to the free flowing nature.

    Nba betting is tough ...I bow my head to anyone able to consistently make $$ . The books are experts at laying these lines. The amount of times I have lost by 1/2 a point is staggering.

    Best of luck to you guys

    Can anyone tell me what happened to Jordan Farmar, it says that he only played 1 minute so far? I backed him on the under in a performance market but haven't been watching the game, wouldn't mind knowing for my records.

    Went off after a minute due to hamstring injury.

    Cheers guys, if only an invisible sniper took care of all the player's hamstrings when I back them for an under performance. I'd be a rich man...

    Started following plays, then watching NRL this season via ThatGuy/Sando/TGM at the very start of the season just completed. Great game...my only problem with it is how heavily-influenced it is by the calling (or not calling) of penalties...a fresh set of downs is a major opportunity for the benefitting team (and setback for the team being penalized)...but the awarding of penalties seems arbitrary (usually just cuz the defending players get off the tackled player marginally TOO slowly or tackles TOO emphatically or ______ TOO ________ly, etc. etc.

    it's the biggest buggaboo of the game...the arbitrariness of the penalty-calling...but apart from that, the actual play of the game is amazingly entertaining...puts the north-american "heavily-padded outdoor committee-meetings with occasional bursts of activity" crap to shame

    Just imagine when you're emotionally invested in a team and you have to go through a game of all those wacky calls. One minute I'll be wishing things upon the ref I wouldn't want my worst enemy to go through, the next I'll be congratulating him on a solid call (if it goes in my teams favour.)

    wow silly me, i didn't know you could buy pinny cash at the store, only thought it was for crappy books like 5dimes, i had over 1500 points a week or so ago but threw 1000 on some parlay because i thought it was worthless!

    Pinny cash is only available very recently. The last time I check only 5dimes and bookmaker were 2 viable options.

    Early Play

    NBA Monday

    Indiana @ Portland
    2* Pacers -1.5 (-109/$1.91 Centrebet)

    Pacers were already in Portland watching the Blazers play the Lakers so should be the more rested team despite being the road team. Both teams with great records and ATS stats, however the Pacers have a 7-1 ATS road record, and the Blazers are a decent 4-3 at home this season, but only 4-11 over their last 15 home games ATS. Pacers match up fine with the Blazers, who are an average defensive team, however an offensively potent unit, but have yet to deal with a defence as suffocating as what the Pacers bring to the table (allowing only 85.6 ppg on a ridiculous 38.7%). Also Wes Matthews injured his hip against the Lakers and may not play and/or be at 100%
    Points Awarded:

    Coopertrooper gave sando 2 Betpoint(s) for this post.

    Wes Matthews makes the Blazers D gel, huge loss for the blazers if he doesn't play. I definitely like the play.

    I want to get on that line, but Centrebet seems to be only for AUS/NZ users? From all info that I can see is that it is available for Europeans, but I can't pick any country other than AUS and NZ during the signup.

    Good early pick up sando, think it should get to -2.5 or -3.5. Hard to ignore the form of the Pacers at -1.5. Don't tail too often on sbr but I will be tailing on that one.

    That's interesting. I've never considered to explore what Betpoints are. So it's limited to 12 points per day?
