yeah I had to take gs with the points too, even though SA win streaks like 8 now...

they're on fire

diogee · 04-01-08, 10:09 PM

Phuckin brutal...first CP3 misses 2 FT's with 6 seconds to go to kill me and then a fuking useless 3 by Eddie House with 10 seconds left up 11 to kill my under by a phucking hook.

Bad beats all over the last week.

ChuteBoxe · 04-01-08, 10:26 PM

4th quarter collapse once again.

diogee · 04-01-08, 10:27 PM

Yeah phuck...I should have known to take these phucks for the first half.

Adding: Hou/Sac U 100 2H 1.1 to win 1

ChuteBoxe · 04-01-08, 10:30 PM

pray for ot

diogee · 04-01-08, 10:33 PM

I am on the under for the 2H...that missed FT by Melo might **** us.

ChuteBoxe · 04-01-08, 10:36 PM

jesus christ, can anyone hit back to back free throws tonight? fuckin garbage!

diogee · 04-01-08, 10:37 PM

Make these phuckers Melo...I have had 2 bad beats already. Can't handle a 3rd.

ChuteBoxe · 04-01-08, 10:38 PM

Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

diogee · 04-01-08, 10:39 PM

Phew...tonight still blows but that makes it a little better. Congrats on another win Chute....you are unstoppable bud.

ChuteBoxe · 04-01-08, 10:46 PM

Thanks man. And to think, I was actually embarassed about how bad I was doing this season in January. Now, that seems like years ago.

diogee · 04-01-08, 10:50 PM

No kidding it has come together very nicely as of late. I am debating calling it a year so I can focus on learning bases and make sure I keep our info straight.

ChuteBoxe · 04-01-08, 10:52 PM

Maybe just 1 NBA play a day? That could work out nicely. A little spot betting? Then you can focus on MLB, and still cash some NBA tickets. Or, you could wait till playoff time, pick 1 or 2 teams, and just ride them all the way through?

diogee · 04-01-08, 10:54 PM

Yeah actually I think I will try one play a day for a while. Probably going to ride the Hornets ats, Det under, and SA under through the playoffs. Should come out ahead.

MiamiBoy86 · 04-01-08, 11:04 PM

glad to see you guys doing well...I have been basically cleaned out the last 2 weeks...a freefall of epic proportions...i basically cannot win a bet to save my life....every decision i make, it goes the opposite...when i first started and bet for fun, turned 600 into 10k in about 10 days....now, have just turned 3k into 100 in a week...phucking sick......i dunno what to do, I need some advice...hope you guys keep it going...best of luck

diogee · 04-01-08, 11:07 PM

Shit MiamiBoy...sorry to hear that. I have been yo-yoing for the last week. Couple of good days then crash for a couple. Hope you get it turned around and get some winners tomorrow. Lower your unit size until you can get back on track. Maybe take a day off to regain a positive train of thought.

MiamiBoy86 · 04-01-08, 11:11 PM

haha, yea i did that...was capping my own games anyways, was fading myself (as rediculous as that sounded) and was coming up black...so decided to try and take that into play and start betting again....still capping good games, but apparently i can't bet on the winning ones...sigh....maybe i just need to stop capping completely and bet 2-3 games that other people post...I am just doing that poorly...or maybe I'll try to bounce some of my picks off of you guys...i dunno... something, but thank you for the positive words of encouragement, needed something besides TimeToPay telling me how much I stink lol

diogee · 04-01-08, 11:17 PM

No problem bud...as it is I feel it may be time to wade lightly in the NBA since the playoffs are right around the corner and who knows how these teams are going to play the game...hence Det playing their bench when tons of people jumped all over the square play.

I'll be all over the Lakers, Suns, and Spurs, like usual.

diogee · 04-02-08, 12:11 AM

Lakers should be an excellent choice...by then they should be an absolute powerhouse with their line-up complete.

DukeJohn · 04-02-08, 04:43 AM

I woke up early this morning and was reading through your thread, man Dio, you guys make it all seem exciting; even when you loose.

I tell ya, it is hard not to be in the game. If you might remember my NBA season ended last week and since I didn't go on a vacation, I am going out of my mind, but it is fun reading your posts. Soon MLB starts up for me, but it is hard keeping with my disciple and not placing wagers. Of course Chuteboxe doing so well pulls the sports bettor out of anyone, bringing forth that burning passion to place money on a game.

Keep up the good work. As the days come and go, all that matters in sports betting is the positive units at the end of season.

Congrats

diogee · 04-02-08, 04:52 AM

Glad you enjoyed reading through the posts. I can only imagine how tough it is to have the discipline not to wager when you see everyone else doing it....Chuteboxe is certainly rolling.
Positive units is the most important thing. Thanks for the congrats and I wish you the best of luck during the baseball season.

diogee · 04-02-08, 07:24 AM

Lost 10 units over the last 3 days. Tomorrow is a small card so I am going to take the day off and regain a positive train of thought and get back in the game.

ChuteBoxe · 04-02-08, 11:36 PM

I'm about to lose Portland right now myself.

diogee · 04-02-08, 11:38 PM

Unphucking real...I just got home and it was tied at 50 at the half. Phucking Shit!

ChuteBoxe · 04-02-08, 11:45 PM

Sorry for the past few days brother, you'll get em back, just in a little slide right now. But, that's why I decided to keep my plays down, to minimize the damage, and increase the risk of getting out alive. Also test out how I'll do with a more spot bet approach next year with a bigger unit value. Chill out the next few days.
