2010 NBA Playoffs Home Team ML Thread

[TennisBabe]

Why not Parley the 4 tomoro as well TB? I haven't checked the lines but you should get at least +250 I would think.

I did that as well.

I'm very confident all four home teams win today. As a matter of fact if the first three win I just might double or even triple my bet in the Suns game. The only game that worries me a little is the Mavs-Spurs. But in the end the Mavs should pull it out.

are you billy baxters daughter?

you mean billy walters' daughter ?

[Iwinwithsports]

Looking good so far
how often do u have 2nd half plays if U like?

[superjeff24]

1-0 so far today. I'm putting HUGE units on Suns with ya. My fellow Canuck Steve Nash is gonna run the table on Portland all night!

my #'s were quite a bit less than +250....

[TennisBabe]

Yes parlay was not +250 not sure how someone got that price. My parlay price was just over even money. As for my second half plays they vary. I will pull the trigger if the home team is down up to 5 five and the 2nd half spread is enough for a win. Example with the Celtics yesterday I played them 2nd half also (forgot to post it here). For some of these game 2s I will place the ML bet again, but for others I might hold off placing a pregame bet and waiting for the 2nd half.

[Iwinwithsports]

Yeah I got bout +180 on parlay

thanks TB

[frogp07]

hey tennisbabe, im very new to capping so forgive me if i ask a stupid question. why is it that we and everyone else are heavy on the suns. it seems that the public is all over the suns the line is -500 right now, what did u get it at?

[Cheetahponti]

frog - Brandon Roy is out, that is the main reason, however I can still see Portland keeping it within 4-5 points so ML is the right play

[frogp07]

are there any websites i can use to check which side the public is on? i know of one, but im assuming there are more out there and probably a better one. thanks

[Iwinwithsports]

I use pregame
another is vegasinsider

[WolverineFan]

I am using a local and I can't take ML...so I don't know who to take

[frogp07]

thank you iwin, pregame looks good.

I suggest to all not wait your books to do a parlay payout calculation. Here is the parlay calculator using the standard formula in an Excel file

http://cid-f6b86072876fc2b1.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/.Public/PCalc.xls

please note that I put all lines at -110, but is only as an example. Also, you can see the books like to round numbers in 5 to 8 teams.
Fell free to modify the lines cells, but please don't change the formulas below each Parlay payout

[Tsunami]

Betjamaica pays on the 4 team parlay 100 / 158

T Babe..........Do ever you post your Tennis plays ?

Thanks

[TennisBabe]

Yes I have an active tennis thread up

[bigbob]

what do you guys like in the 2nd half of the dal/sa

[Goat Milk]

Yes I have an active tennis thread up

how do you like that raping nadal gave to your boy verdasco this morning? lol

[TennisBabe]

Verdasco is my boy? Guess you never read the posts about me saying Nadal will not lose a SET through the French open. PS This is a basketball thread

[SparJMU]

So are you saying that you were profitable doing this the last few seasons? Even at a 70% winning percentage you aren't necessarily profitable paying those prices.

[TennisBabe]

We don't play every game. There's a method behind my madness. For example as of right now none of the game 2 home favs are a play right now. We played every game in Game 1 because the stats back it up.

[TennisBabe]

Will continue with the system of home team winning game 1's...

Los Angeles Lakers Risking 21.5 to win 5
Orlando Magics Risking 30.3 to win 5
Dallas Mavericks Risking 11.5 to win 5
Phoenix Suns Risking 22.7 to win 5

ADDING

Phoenix Suns Risking 23.75 to win 5

[cecbo]

[krazey47409]

[TennisBabe]

Let's go Suns!

[Amsterdamn]

I'm rolling with you TB, got a nice -220 ML live in play line...

[julio_cat]

I have a question TB.
ATP Barcelona is scheduled to start at 04:00 AM EDT
Will you have plays on that Tournament in your tennis forum?
It's way past my bedtime and too early for getting up

[TennisBabe]

I don't like betting in round 1 of minor tournaments. As of now I will not have plays.

[CatPulp]

Holy crap! This is a very dangerous system. I know TennisBabe stipulated the warning that this was a "very extreme system", but Sweet Baby Jesus, play it at your peril. I hate to rain on the parade, but there seems to be very little value in these bets and if you don't know what you are doing, or have a massive bankroll to back up you losses (or god forbid, start chasing them in a Martingale fashion), then your risk of ruin is exceedingly high.

Even in the best year, at a 74.4% win/loss ratio, laying a wager at odds of anything greater than -285 is sure to destroy you.

Thanks for the info. Suns is a close game. May you win it

[jaxjonesdrew32]

can you share how much cash you are betting on these games TB? its more exciting for me to watch the games knowing you have 50K on the line
