I like the under as well. Why are you so high on the over? Is it because Ben Wallace is out?

M.Chalmers15 · 03-26-08, 04:58 PM

yep, trust me, u might as well hedge right now so u dont lose money. I NEVER PUT $3,000 on ANY bet unless I am 99.999999999% sure. my normal bet is $200

Arnold · 03-26-08, 04:58 PM

I like the Hornets game under too.

What makes the difference between 99.99999999% sure and 70% sure?

Also, there is no such thing as a 99.9% sure in sports betting.

Whether this hits or not, that the OP thinks he should 15x his standard stake and call a two-teamer a lock loses all credibility he ever had, if any.

Into the degenerate pool you go.

M.Chalmers15 · 03-26-08, 05:02 PM

hah, lets just see after the game fellas. thanks, if in the RARE chance you guys hit, I will give you the upmost props, but I dont see it happening personally

M.Chalmers15 · 03-26-08, 05:03 PM

hah, wyndham, lets just see at the end of the night bro

The HG · 03-26-08, 05:11 PM

Oh man. Chalmers, is the fix in on this one??? Sh*t. Dude if this is more of that Tim Donaghy-type jazz, tell us! Is that what's going on here?

Wyndham · 03-26-08, 05:11 PM

See what? If you hit, great. Don't waste it all at once. If not, you're in the hole and weeks upon weeks of any profit is down the drain.

Money management. Period.

Wyndham, if the fix in on, he's probably betting appropriately. Chalmers, is the fix on??

M.Chalmers15 · 03-26-08, 05:13 PM

HAHAHAHAHHA, mock me if ya want fellas, but I feel STRONGLY on this one

Chalmers I'm not mocking you. If the fix is on I'm going to unload on the over.

diogee · 03-26-08, 05:19 PM

Best of luck MC15...gun to the head I have to take the under in this one. Both teams have the tendency to slow the pace of the game down.

M.Chalmers15 · 03-26-08, 05:20 PM

UNlOAD HG!!!!!!!!!!

What book did you place that wager at Chalmers

rake922 · 03-26-08, 05:39 PM

$3000 wins $7800 at most books

mundane · 03-26-08, 05:43 PM

M.Chalmers15

sonnythekid · 03-26-08, 05:47 PM

I think he's right on the OVER.

M.Chalmers15 · 03-26-08, 05:51 PM

Sonny, care to elaborate on why? Your posted picks have impressed me.

The HG · 03-26-08, 06:09 PM

The total exploded up to 195, all the way up from 190. Anyone want to explain why? I missed why, and I'm pretty on top of NBA totals in general.

M.Chalmers15 · 03-26-08, 07:22 PM

106 combined points at the half...OVER needs 86 more points combined b/w the two for the 2nd half.

Even if it hits, it doesn't mean it was a 99.9% thing, or a "lock". You probably will get this one, unless the famous 30pts 4th quarter makes a visit to this game.

Or in this case 3rd qtr.
but I hope not

Boston is up seven and the NO-CLE game needs roughly 50 points in the fourth quarter after seeing just 38 in the third. Even if the parlay hits, it once again proves that nothing in sports is even close to a lock; it's more luck than lock.

rake922 · 03-26-08, 07:59 PM

This parlay may be in Monopoly money and not US Dollars

Wyndham · 03-26-08, 08:05 PM

Never let it be said that I don't try. I shouldn't bother because they never listen, especially considering I was on Boston at -5 and would love more people to pound Phoenix, but what can ya do.

Here, I'll say it again: MONEY MANAGEMENT. No matter how good you thought this play was (and it really wasn't that strong at all from a capping standpoint), you shouldn't have 15x'ed it.

Better luck in the next life.

sir.civic · 03-26-08, 08:13 PM

wow i guess dis is the thread to be in....got boston here(6.5)

i agree w/ wyndham.. money management...no matter how good the play is, you should alwayz have that mentality of risking only wat you can risk(lose) ....gudluck to all...
