I could careless about your picks or handicapping. I am not trying to bash your handicapping or picks. The biggest problem with you as I see it is you are a "young punk". You have a character flaw and need coaching or fathering. You don't have what it takes to make it in this game. It's more than some stats and some fancy lingo that you 'recently' learned.
As far as your little threads go.. I am happy for you son, but your luck could turn on a dime. You started a pick thread once and went to the shitter immediately and you went MIA for awhile.
Bottomline, your bravado is what is irratating to myself and the handful of others that actually know what's going on that you have met opposisition from.
You made a "couple" winning picks and now all of a sudden you think you have figured it out.
I am not going to keep wasting my time suffering a fool. I am just telling you to tone the shit down as it is annoying as hell coming from a "noob" themself. Learn some humility and grow up.
Who the fuk do you think you are...some kind of NBA handicapping genius???? This guy is trying to help out lot of people here. You might be an expert capper...but who gives a fuk with that attitude of yours. There are many newbies in this forum who have no idea as to how to bet in NBA...they make picks like most "squares". This thread will help them in finding some angles while betting.
On the other hand, why dont you stop biitching and provide some insightful info to the people in this forum...no, instead you have to go bash and criticize others who try to help. I had some respect for you earlier...but after reading through your posts in this thread...I HAVE ZERO RESPECT FOR YOU NOW.Comment -

Are you shitting me?? He isn't doing this to help people... this is a attention whore thread started by somebody that one a few games...Self admiration. Proudness.
Again, i am not trying to bash somebody that is trying to help. It is all about attitude.. He is a young punk and so are you.
As far as the help he is "spoon feeding" it can be learned or found on your own..
You have to have the "want to" "desire" to do it. If you don't have that in the first place you wont make it very long.
And your respect?? Dude who the fukk are you??? Who said I need your respect? Your another one that is simply more important to one self than they are to anybody elseComment -

How is the self admiration or proudness? Big deal I can answer some general questions about betting NBA basketball, that is nothing to be proud of. Tons of people can do it. I haven't won a few games by the way, I have won over 120 games so far this year and yet to lose any of my huge plays. I didn't just jump into this season a week ago and get lucky and hit 5 games in a row. I have been doing this all year long between SBR and the forums at TSG. I don't need any attention, no one had to come on here and ask me anything.
I know it's hard for a guy like you to think that I am actually doing this to help other people but believe it or not I am. I enjoy helping people cap their own games because I know the feeling of tailing someone else's play and losing and asking myself "why in the world did I just take this team?"Scared money don't make money

Spoon feeding...are you kidding me...not all people here are jobless who bet everyday like you do. For many people here, betting is just recreational and they dont want gambling money to make it in long term like you.
Most newbies here arent old farts like you who spend all day and week betting. They have jobs. So, they dont know many angles which pros do. Thats what this thread is doing...helping teach some newbies about few angles while betting.
Again, if you have nothing useful to contribute to this thread...then get the fuk out of this thread. This guy is trying to help some people here which you obviously arent.Comment -

RLM only gets you so far, knowing why theres RLM is what seperates you. This year hasnt happened as much but when Boston, San Antonio, and Detroit basketball were covering ATS machines they would do wacky stuff with the lines to throw off linewatchers.Comment -

#185CK always used to say this over here and that is a huge part of my capping. I don't just see RLM and think autmotically that this is the correct play. Sometimes it can just be an injury announced so the line went down. You really have to look at the situations, matchups, trends and injury report to figure out why Vegas is moving the line in the opposite direction. Also like you said they can just be trying to get the sharps and big $ bettors off a play by throwing some crazy unexplainable RLM.Scared money don't make money

vyom you and i are cool. if most are betting recreationally then they dont need the angles as they are just betinng $5 a game like 95% of the losers on this site. that wont help them anyways cause they will always take lakers/celtics/cavs and magic.
you cant help rec bettors cause they arent interested in betting seriously. if you are betting rec than you dont care to be serious and shouldnt bother with the extra crap.Comment -

#194Friday Homedogs ATS have not been profitable this year. They are hitting right around 50% so you are just losing on the juice. The real value this year lies in the Moneyline Friday Homedogs. There have been so many +4.5 through +10 moneyline dog winners on Fridays that it's downright scary. So if you take into consideration that you hit 50% of the time with all the extra + money you get from moneylining the plays you are seeing a HUGE profit so far this season.

Obviously there have been a ton of homedogs that have covered ATS and anyone could have made big money taking homedogs ATS if you picked and choosed your spots but that's just like anything.Scared money don't make money

#198I haven't seen any of his NCAA plays but he says he has been cold in the tourney so far. He started up a challenge thread as a repayment to the members for the NCAA plays, we all know how that challenge thread did here last year. He has been killing the NBA, his PC plays and heavys are hitting at a very, very high %. I think he's hit like 75% on his PC's the last month or two. He hit like six in a row of them like two weeks ago.Scared money don't make money

#201I have a question. But first I'd like to thank Sweetjones and the other contributors for sharing their knowledge, regardless of the reason they are doing it.
I am an NFL guy. I opened a Sportsbook account back in 2000 and have been recreational NFL better ever since. Over the years I have been pretty profitable, but I always credited my winnings to my knowledge of the game. I live and breath the NFL, I watch as many games as I can, read as many articles as I can, all for the love of the sport. I think that having my finger constantly on the pulse of the league is what has given me my edge in that sport.
As far as the NBA(or MLB) is concerned, I have no clue what is going on. I think basketball is exciting and I enjoy betting on it, but I don't even know where to begin to find my edge. So, my question is, where do I start? It would take years for me to be as thoroughly versed in the NBA as I am in the NFL. Should I be looking at betting trends? Stats? RLM? Should I be reading articles from beat writers to get a sense of who needs it more? I know this seems like a very general question, but I just don't know how to approach it. For all you stock guys out there, I'm basically asking if I should be focused more on fundamental analysis or technical? I'm sure the answer lies somewhere in the middle. Any guidance would be appreciated.
Thanks again for all the help thus far.Comment -

I think you should look at trends but this really isn't that big a deal. Whatever trend you find on the internet or anywhere Vegas has known about long before you ever found it. Trends are nice to have in support of ones plays but should usually not be the main reason you are taking the play.
I think you should definitely look for RLM. In general when you side with Vegas you will win the majority of the time. Vegas has a lopsided amount of money almost always when there's RLM and you want to be on the side that they make the most money. RLM is not anything "sage" though and does not just single out winners, if it did we'd all be billionaires.
I like to look at the matchups of the two teams a lot. I match up players and benches and see who I think will have the upper hand. You kinda have to know about the players to be able to do so but you can also look at stats and what player has been playing well as of late.
You really just have to identify certain situations where a team is most likely going to cover or one team is going to falter. A team that has been on the road for say 3 or 4 games is going to have trouble if they got to travel on B2B and play Utah who is well rested. Teams that are long road trips usually struggle their 1st game at home after being on the road. You just want to try and single out these profitable kind of situations every night. Bad teams win in bunches so when the Nets or Twolves win they are going to be a decent bet in their next game. You just have to start capping yourself and learning all these kind of things as you start betting and seeing what works and what doesn't work. I think experience is huge so just bet lightly for a while til you think you are getting the hang of it.Scared money don't make money

Boeing power, you are already on the right direction asking questions and not coming on here and posting "locks". Good luck and let me know how you do. PM me you first official play you put on SBR and I'll tail, I am a strong believer in beginners luck.
I just went all the way back looking for my first writeup/play. I hit up the Mavs -3 against Utah result: Mavs win by 29
