amazing to me

they are pretty good - but this sounds like someone who has just lost some $

I'm buying points all the time now, this time I was lucky I bought a point and the final freethrow from the Bucks won it for me.

yea i think this shit is rigged its amazing how they always lose the spread by a point or the over under by a point and all these dumbass fouls in the game thay can call a foul whenever they want its all about money they riged that shit and made sure it went just over they needed to get 196 and succeded im a dumbass for thinking this game was a lock ubt **** it im stil up it's only a 100$

I think it takes a very paranoid person to think all these games are fixed.. but I could see some sort of 'fix' on a Monday night. Figure there's nothing to bet on tonight aside from MNF, hockey, and college bball. Just 4 NBA games on the card tonight so they will see action. We'll never know for sure... all we can do is hope we're on the right side of the fix.

refs control the game and call whatever fouls they feel like . If a player calls a ref out for cheating, he gets fined $100,00. it's impossible to call games exactly like the spread time and time again. lines move and underdogs end up covering. Refs in the NFL and NBA calling game changing fouls time and again

It's sickening to watch

Guys there is a spread on every game everyday. They get some on the mark from time to time, but that is not their aim. Rather induce betting on both sides. Thats why you cant start to psychoanalyze the spreads, then you will never be able to pick winners.

krazey47409 · 11-30-09, 11:05 PM

yea im just suprised how a game that everyone expects to go under and bets under on goes over by 1 point coinsuence Maybe who nos I doubt it we just gotta find a way to beat these suckers they can only rig a game to a certain extent most of this is out of their control

pattymayo · 11-30-09, 11:07 PM

on a game where you feel that everyone expects it to go under.. why not go over? that's how you beat the books

Sirus73 · 11-30-09, 11:14 PM

would you still think it was rigged if you would have too the -5 point the other way or took the over?

my point is this, it's a win /lose or push decision however you play it. Vegas hires guys who are pros at this shit. they ain't gonna let joe from the corner call plays that influence a billion dollar industry.

Fed_42420 · 11-30-09, 11:16 PM

Idk, I really don't think its rigged. If it is, it's not for the bookies, it would be for what the fans want. You have to remember sports aren't played just so people can bet on them. They are played to make money and stimulate local and state economies, because people like watching them and enjoying them. They just want more people at the games buying tickets, concessions, merchandise, etc.. So the only way they would rig it would be to get more fans, not to make books more money.

bet against the public in every bet and you will profit in the end, just like Vegas

you'll win just over 50%, but you won't profit unless you're paying no juice.

i'm pretty sure vegas would rather milk millions of people from money slowly, every day, by splitting the sides and raking in 10% of every losers bet, than destroy the public on every bet they place over a short period of time (because if you destroy the public enough, they'll stop betting)

Had Bulls/Bucks under as the last leg of my live 7-leg parlay.
My life sucks ... $3200 down the drain

These 1 or so point losses are tough to swallow, but saying that it was rigged is just completely stupid. It was a very tight game that went down to the last second. The majority was on the wrong side tonight and congrats goes to the over/Bulls+ backers. Tomorrow is a new day guys... Hopefully I can win my dough back and a bit extra to pay for this hole in the wall i created

Notice this doesn't happen in College Games... The pointspreads for the College games are almost nowheres near what the final score is.. Sometimes the underdogs win outright as like 20 point underdogs as well... The NBA is like fixed or some shit, it's impossible to determine the total amount of points scored between 2 teams for 48 minutes of action and which team will win and by how much.. Each shot that is taken by either team has a 50/50 chance of going in the hoop

iMxth3xbossx5000 · 12-01-09, 01:38 AM

I also love how everyone is pissed that Milwaukee lost the cover. Lmao am I the only one who was crazy enough to take Chicago Bulls +3 tonight?

lakerboy · 12-01-09, 01:39 AM

keep a close eye on closing lines-

bulls -106 at pinny/ bucks -104- end of story

Q · 12-01-09, 01:41 AM

I know for sure this shit isnt rigged i have talk to top division one coaches and they dont even look at spreads...
