Roag's NBA Regular Season Thread

[Domestic]

Nice teaser Roag, only a few hours until tip off now. Come on the under in the celtics/cavs game!

[RoagBettor]

Well I can't trust betus and don't wanna go with bookmaker either because of they're payout issues, so is 5dimes at -145 juice for3team/8pt teasers?

I've had no problems with Bookmaker...yet. SBR hasn't weighed in on the issue which leads me to believe it's being resolved. There could be a lot of reasons for the payout issues, but I don't see BM'er going down the tubes (LOL not with the juice they get on their lines!).

If you don't want to risk it, -145 is still pretty good for 8 pts as long as you're very confident on the play (which I am for this one).

[BamaCBass]

Hey Roag, what is your opinion on the seven pt teasers? Thanks!

[RoagBettor]

I play the 3 team/8 pt teaser because Bookmaker offers them at a special price of -120.

I'd play 7 pointers as long as you can get your key number. For me, that is 3 or under on strong teams.

[COLOR=#000000! important]Good thread here. Hope it's ok if I jump in. NBA is my favorite game for a little wager. I have had some good success in the past.

No claims to capper fame, so don't pay any attention to my picks just yet ! Early NBA can be startling sometimes.

Starting the season with a clean 10K account and all of my picks will be straight bets at 1%. If I fool around with a parlay or teaser, I'll deny it !!

Lifelong Celtics fan but the Cavs home winning streak against them is very impressive.

Picks later.

No guarantees but I think it has a great chance to hit. Best of luck!

Roag- Bodog offers the same 3 team/8 pt teasers for -110

Those are sweetheart teasers...If one game pushes, you lose.

[RoagBettor]

Right, but not on Bookmaker. One push and 2 wins is a push overall.

[williams22]

Right, I was just explaining to makethatmoney why the Bodog payout is so much better.

Good luck tonight Roag!

[RoagBettor]

I'll take the -120 over the -110 all day with the 2 wins and a push = push rule!

Hope you have a great night tonight!

[djpremier36]

What up Roag? Good luck this year!

[The Donk]

Changed my bet a bit and made it official.

Portland -3.5
LA Lakers -6
Washington +13
Boston +10.5
Risk $75 : Win $150

Hope it's a good night! GL to everyone

[MUHerd37]

Anyone here use a martingale system? I have used in in nhl and baseball with great success. With the nba I'm not sure if it's better to use the moneyline or the spread. Any ideas?

[monkeybiz]

[SportsTerminator]

It's beginning to look like the NFL forum here. Everyone wants to be the big time capper lol. But I'm going to wait and get a feel for NBA and study stats like a mad scientist before I jump in.

[TGHMak]

Anyone see this at nbastuffer

[suicidekings]

The chart is interesting, however i don't really think it should be used until at least ~15 games in. That's when injuries & fatigue will start to actually play a part in the games. Everyone's fresh right now.

MUH, I don't use it, but there are guys here who do. Check out some of the other threads.

[The Donk]

Wow, Celtics. Wow...

[TurkzZ]

Good luck in the NBA dude

[RoagBettor]

I believe I was the first one to predict (yesterday in BL's thread) that I expected the Celtics to win outright tonight. It's not over yet, but it's clear that the Celtics are the better team. As I said, Cleveland is not better this year (sorry williams!).

[TrafficUB]

Mavs are looking preety bad too, shouldn't of bet on them, Arenas is on fire :s

[RoagBettor]

I don't bet teams like the Mavs at this point in the season, too many unknowns.

Stick with the Fab Five - Lakers, Celtics, Spurs, Cavs and Magic.

Hey, I never said Cleveland would win tonight. I bet it for a unit to support my team, but I knew this game was trouble. The Cavs need more time to get the new pieces working. I'm not convinced the Celtics are the superior team though. Way too early to say that.

In other news, looks like my Washington pick is right on so far!

Cavs will be fine, they just need time. But they don't have the depth of the Celtics which will be a problem later in the season and in the playoffs.

Hope you get the Washington game!
