    i am playing it as utah is .500 team (even though they are 3-3 now) and always play well on the road ats. they will be 10 point+ underdogs at miami and at orlando will cover one of these two games. i think it will be the first game at miami.

    Yeah, to me the filter will be 500 and up, it it's exactly 500, it'll be a play on the road team. 499 or below, a play on the home team. So Utah's gonna be a play under the system.

    Blast I am opposite side of all of these.... I guess there is 3 points on each where we both can win.

    Clippers started a 3 road games series at denver on friday (they covered the spread with and without buying 3 pts), game B was at utah on saturday (they also covered with and without buying 3 pts), game C will be tomorrow at charlotte. Will you be playing on charlotte to cover game C because this also qualifyies as a reverse 3 game series?

    Nope can't say that I will play on this one, it's a V3 under JM's system. I'll never touch these, straight or reverse. Too risky in my opinion.

    Great job to all who played the same plays I did tonight!! Here are my updated records, I've already posted the 2 plays for the 9th.

    System 1 Record: (3-1) +$175
    System 2 Record: (1-0) +$200

    **Note the records and profit may not match up to what you have earned so far, but I am tracking this for myself, the one loss on system one was only played as a single game, so I didn't take the full 6.29 unit loss. Also, that first play was 425 to win 250, which lost, and now I've dropped my unit to 200.

    Let's keep this going guys!

    What I think on the system 2 it's that teams over.500 it's covering on their 2nd game on the road this year? I will watch tonight but if I'm correct the play will be Piston and Miami.

    No problem I'll help you out. System 2 is simply this: It's another 2 game chase, no buying points. You look at the JM V1 schedule, and look at the road team that you'd be playing according to the JM system. If their record is over 500, you play on them for the first two games, only the first two games, no points. If their record is below 500, then you play against them for the first two games, no points.

    I hope that helps, let me know if you're still unclear.

    I'm guessing that the ORL line will open anywhere between -7 and -9

    Also the UNDER there could be a good idea....

    I'm only putting +2.5 because that's where it opened, I know it moved quickly to +3, which is where I got it at. I should change that, thanks. I just put that to see how the system works using opening lines. Btw I use bookmaker and phoenix, at bookmaker you can only buy 2 points so i use phoenix for 3.

    Seth,

    I read the entire thread and thanks to you and others for all the work. Just so I completely understand this the systems are as follows:


    System 1

    Sit back and watch the A game, no wager on it whatsoever.

    Whichever bet covers, play the B bet (A bet for us) on the side that didn't cover, either road or home, always buying 3 points as the system states.

    If that A bet loses, we move onto the B bet, if it wins, we take the unit profit, and if it loses, we lose a total of 6.29 units.

    That's the beauty of this at -170 odds, only playing a 2 game chase takes 6.29 units, as opposed to the roughly 18 units you would lose playing a regular 3 game chase.


    System 2

    It's a 2 game chase, no buying points.

    You look at the JM V1 schedule, and look at the road team that you'd be playing according to the JM system.

    If their record is over .500, you play on them for the first two games, only the first two games, no points.

    If their record is below 500, then you play against them for the first two games, no points.


    thanks in advance for the time.


    ps
    i don't think philly/okc is a morrison play b/c philly won the first game of their in-conference road trip by more than 3 points ats.

    cmdyrds, Sounds like you got it. FYI, on System 1, if they both cover on the JM A game, then you pass on the series.

    Best anywhere I've seen, -170. Sometimes it can drop to the -160 to -165 range, it's just 60 cents added to the original ATS line.
