    It would be best if all the picks were in one thread. It doesn't make a whole lot of sense to keep it here given the title of this thread.

        Miami's defense was a failed. It is what blew our bets.

        Miami had 95 points. Had they win with solid defense, Mavs would get 90,91,92 and all would be well.

        Miami wins, dallas cover, under hits, there will be a 7th game and stern will be happy. It should have gone down like that.

        Miami's fans and betters are now having this hate/love relationship with the heat. Lebron even had a word for his loyal fans too. oh well, the game is over, the NBA is over and my journey with you will now be over until next season. Make that the NFL when there is an NFL season.

        NBA and NFL are my games so see you around next season for another productive run. Take care and buy your baby a bron bron binkie. LOL

          Did sj go tout?

          I've been really busy with my first day back at work so no early mlb plays. I will have a few plays though in about 30 minutes.

          But can someone clarify what happened with sj...thanks.

            Yes sir.
            Official Tout.
            This being said I would like to thank you once again for all the time you put into your thread.
            You post all your plays with detailed analysis and keep an accurate and up to date record.
            This is the best thread on SBR hands down.
            ....Congrats on the lil one by the way.

              I may add to the under right before the game. Still undecided...

                Looks like it. He has his own thread in a special sub forum for tout plays here at sbr and also has a personal website sjjones his screen name dot com that looks like a tout site. site still under construction.

                I'm pretty neutral in what people do. It is non of my business. With SJ out, there is a new race for next year to who will be the bad azz free capper here at sbr that everyone will love.

                      So pissed I didn't play that Pirates under...got scared off because I played the same pitching matchup a few weeks ago and lost. Plus Hunter Wendelstadt was the ump and he is 10-2 in favor of the over. Under cashed easy though...

                        Those are very nice comments. Thank you very much.

                        I wish SJ luck. I was just surprised because he was always so adamant that he would never do that.

                        I would never begrudge someone the right to make a living though. He is a good capper and if he can make some extra cash to support his family as a tout, I can't blame him. Personally, I would never be a tout because I am already quite successful in my professional career. I went to school for a long time to earn a professional degree and I have a rewarding career that I love. I am also a sports investor because I love sports, have good analytical skills that transfer over to capping and enjoy the extra money. It's a great side job but I could never look at it as something I could depend on to support my family day in and day out being a tout.

                        I am just surprised SJ actually went tout after always saying he would never do it. Hopefully, he does not turn into the shady type that is really just making ghost cappers releasing both sides of every game just to turn a profit and does it the honest way.

                        Very interesting...

                            Personally LTA, I like the idea of only checking into one thread (Which was this one). Dipping into different threads in different sections of SBR has always been messy and peoples posts tend to get missed. Just my thoughts but personally I would love if you kept posting in this thread. It has momentum and afterall the WNBA is still in the correct section.
                            Just my thoughts of course !

                            I saw some other comments like this one. I tend to agree that I like posting all of my plays for all sports in one thread. In addition to NBA, MLB and WNBA, I also cap NCAAF and NFL. I do not cap NCAAB or NHL at the moment.

                            What if I put all of my plays in the Players Talk forum? Would you guys still check the thread out over there? In a way, I don't like Players Talk for capping because of all the bullshi*. However, I can't think of any other forum that would be appropriate for me to post all of my plays. Thoughts?

                                      Posting the thread anywhere with any thread name is cool with me. Just let us know what you decide to go with.

                                          You've done a great job with this thread so far and my two cents would be to just keep building on what you've already started. As someone else mentioned WNBA is already in the right section and I enjoy the baseball picks in the same thread.

                                            I guess nothing, but I would like to get some more baseball talk going so I thought more MLB thoughts would get posted if I did my MLB plays out of the baseball forum. Plus, with NBA being over, it sort of makes sense to start anew.

                                            But it's no biggie, I can keep everything in this one for everything I guess. I just thought it would make sense to get a new thread name since I play multiple sports. Maybe the mods can help us change the thread name or something.

                                            Your Padres are looking good so far Good luck.

                                              I think it's fine here. anyway, do you only bet big (5-10x) in playoffs?

                                                Aussie, firing on my bases huh?

                                                Admittedly, about two weeks ago, I was as consistent as ever up over 10x in this thread and then I hit a rough patch and lost those 10x and about 6x more. However, I was up about 20x in MLB when I started this thread (see my old first round NBA threads) and remain up over 10x on the year so far. MLB is a really long season and you can't be shaken by a couple bad weeks. I will go on a big extended run soon. Historically, July, August and September/October are my best MLB months. Therefore, I firmly believe if you check in on this thread, you will see us up 100x or more by the end of October 2011.

                                                I'm excited about WNBA though. I think we will have a very successful inaugural season. About to go look at tomorrow's games right now. I love capping with the baby in my lap!

                                                  Nope...I only bet big when I think I have such an edge or positive expected value that it warrants a big play. Can happen any time really. In MLB, I start having more big plays in July after the trade deadline and the playoff races heat up. Lots of money to be made on unders around that time of the year.

                                                  I suspect we will have more bigger plays in the WNBA within the next month or so because of so many head to head rematches. Once you get a lot of head to head battles, you pick up tendencies of how teams play each other.

                                                            4 - 1 = +3.2x

                                                            I still need to go back through the last seven days and update my MLB record. I believe we are about three games over .500 for the thread, but down about 3x or so in this thread. Overall on the season, I remain over 15x in profit (see my first round NBA threads for my early season MLB plays).

                                                            MLB 6/14/11

                                                            Early plays for Tuesday:

                                                            I love the Collmenter/Cain matchup in the Giants/AZ game. Both have pitched to 3 straight unders and generally do not give up more than 3. I want to see who the ref is and the lineups and perhaps add units.

                                                            I also really like the Karstens/Norris matchup. Norris is quickly becoming a Texas stud and Karstens is quietly having an awesome year with an ERA under 3 as a number five starter. I love taking Pirates unders and I think we have a good one today. The books opening up at 7.5 with big juice on the under despite most action on the over tells me the books fear the under here. On this one, I also want to see the umps before locking in a possible additional unit.

                                                            Good luck!

                                                                        (both locked)

                                                                        I have both games capped about four points lower than the posted total so I'm roiling with both unders here. Good luck.

                                                                        Upon review of my notes from capping the games last night, I realize that I have the Tulsa game capped at 150 and the NY game at 164. I thought I had more value in the NY game because it was set at 167 at the time I capped the game. Therefore, I am going to leave the NY play at 1.5x but add to the Tulsa under and make it a 3x play.
