leafsfan19 · 01-12-11, 04:42 PM

was that liverpool over in soccer a late add? I dont recall it being there earlier when I bet your plays

adam3248 · 01-12-11, 04:50 PM

Yeah I added it after the other three selections.. roughly 10 minutes prior to kick-off. Has only just hit the over in the end. Was 1-1 after about 15 minutes. 2-1 now in stoppage time. Sorry if you missed it, i wasn't going to make it a play but went with it late in the end.

Which selections have you followed? Arsenal were plain awful!

Will be good value with them in the return leg though with home advantage to qualify.

adam3248 · 01-12-11, 04:59 PM

Nicolas Almagro to win vs Adrian Mannarino (Tennis) 2.5 units

leafsfan19 · 01-12-11, 04:59 PM

yea I follow pretty much everything you post, unless its a game I've capped myself. It's all good, glad you hit it! I'll keep an eye out on the next leg bet if you put it up.

good stuff

best of luck! Just had a horrible turn of events in the total frames OVER 9.5 in the snooker match. Murphy should have came back to 3-3 but lost the frame 64-63

still possible but looking less likely now.

Thunderman · 01-12-11, 05:30 PM

Any other tennis leans? I am liking Nalbandian over Isner

adam3248 · 01-12-11, 05:49 PM

This Murphy/Cope game is ridiculous!

I also lean Nalbandian. Good luck if you play it.

adam3248 · 01-12-11, 06:00 PM

Murphy's body language in the final frame was awful! Was defeated before the game was over and his shot selection was awful. Looked like he didn't care if he let his opponent in. Lose by 0.5

adam3248 · 01-12-11, 06:16 PM

Miami Heat @ LA Clippers (Game total UNDER 193) 3 units

adam3248 · 01-12-11, 06:25 PM

JMobile · 01-12-11, 08:14 PM

Good luck Adam!

adam3248 · 01-12-11, 08:17 PM

Thanks JM! Best of luck with your plays too

adam3248 · 01-12-11, 09:05 PM

Missouri were covering the spread with 1 min 6 left on the clock then decide to miss a heap of three throws and let Nebraska make easy buckets.

well done.

adam3248 · 01-13-11, 04:25 AM

tough night last night as my picks go 6-6 and my bigger plays fail to hit

dropped a few units but still comfortably up overall. Wont be posting my picks for today until roughly 4pm.

Thunderman · 01-13-11, 02:05 PM

Adam, what are your thoughts on Nalbandian/Almagro? This line seems high, and I think it should be much closer. I am thinking of playing Almagro at +200, I think the match could go either way.

adam3248 · 01-13-11, 04:57 PM

I see what your saying thunderman, there does appear to be good value with Almagro and I agree it may be a close game but I think Nalbandian wins the match. Im not making a play on it but if you were twisting my arm I would make a small play on Nalbandian to win 2-1. Good luck if you bet on the game.

adam3248 · 01-13-11, 05:10 PM

I'm not sure what you guys think and I would appreciate some feedback, but I have been hitting roughly 50% over the last few days which is not as good as my season record which is above 60%. I think the main reason for this is due to the amount of selections I have made per day which has been much higher over the last week or so than usual. I want you guys to know that I acknowledge this minor downswing and will act accordingly by being more selective with my plays which will hopefully have a positive effect on my overall record.

Best of luck all! Lets keep this season record above 60%

adam3248 · 01-13-11, 05:19 PM

I have 3 plays for tonight (1 NBA and 2 NCAAB) which I will post in a few minutes along with a short write-up. Best of luck to those that choose to follow

Lets make it a profitable night tonight

note:
(I also have the tennis pick I posted yesterday [Tomas Berdych to win Vs Mikhail Youzhny / 2 units] that takes place tonight)

adam3248 · 01-13-11, 05:21 PM

UCLA Bruins @ Oregon State Beavers +4 (NCAAB) 1.5 Units

UCLA is just 1-4 when playing away from home this season. It will have its work cut out for itself tonight as it takes on an Oregon State squad motivated by an embarrassing 31-point loss at Washington in its last game.

The Beavers are among the best home dogs in basketball, checking into this contest at 11-2 ATS in their last 13 games as a home underdog of 6.5 or less points. The Beavers are also an impressive 25-5 ATS in their last 30 games vs. a team with a winning S.U. record.

The Bruins are 1-5-1 ATS in their last 7 games as a favorite and 5-11-1 ATS in their last 17 games as a favorite of 6.5 or less points

adam3248 · 01-13-11, 05:23 PM

Providence Friars @ West Virginia Mountaineers -9.5 (NCAAB) 1.5 Units

The Mountaineers are off a big dog win at Georgetown in their last game. Now they come to face a mediocre Providence team that has lost their last 4 games and allowed 52% or higher in the last 3 games.

The Friars are 1-7 and 2-6 ats vs West Virginia and 1-9 off 3 or more losses. West Virginia is an amazing 20-0 straight up and 17-3 against the spread as a home favorite in this range. When the posted total is 150 to 160 they are 10-1 ats.

Look for West Virginia to get the win and cover tonight against Providence.

adam3248 · 01-13-11, 05:33 PM

Miami Heat -2 @ Denver Nuggets (NBA) 1.5 Units

Denver is 21-16 straight up this year. The Nuggets are 15-31-6 ATS their last 52 games off an ATS win. They are also 4-16-2 ATS their last 22 games vs. Eastern Conference teams. Finally, Denver is 7-20-4 ATS their last 31 games when playing with one day of rest.

Miami is 30-10 straight up this year. The Heat are 11-3 ATS their last 14 road games and they are 15-7 ATS their last 22 games overall. The Heat are 9-4 ATS after scoring 100 or more points in their last game. The Heat are 4-1 ATS with no rest and they are 8-3 ATS vs. Western Conference teams.

I appreciate the fact that Lebron has been listed as questionable for tonight's game following a slight ankle injury picked up in last night's road loss to the Clippers (bringing an end to a 13-game road winning streak) but I think Miami will get the job done here and get back on track with another road win tonight.

arnau · 01-14-11, 03:48 AM

Damn Ucla, won by 5! But good work

JMobile · 01-14-11, 11:20 AM

Good luck today Adam.

adam3248 · 01-14-11, 06:59 PM

2-1 night last night as we have another selection lose by 1

Will hopefully bounce back tonight. Will post my plays up in a couple of minutes. Best of luck all!

adam3248 · 01-14-11, 07:00 PM

Detroit Redwings ML @ Columbus Blue Jackets (NHL) 1.5 units

Detroit is 6-0 their last 6 games as a road favorite. Detroit is 46-16 last 62 games when playing with 3 days of rest or more.

Columbus is 3-15 their last 18 games vs Western Conference opponents.

Columbus is 4-15 their last 19 games as a home underdog.

Detroit is 47-15 last 62 overall meetings with Columbus.
