    Typical early season random NBA shit. Enjoy while it lasts.

    Used the same theory for 7 college football games, starting here at 11 central. I just bet a straight $10 on all of them, believe me I don't expect it to last that's why I lowered them from $20 to $10..

    Here they are

    goodluck, I am seeing this at 2 books where they add up to 193 even, which book you using?

    That was my intentions to just stick to the NBA, but thought I'd give CFB a try today. Seems the best way to bet CFB is to flip a coin.

    I can see a discrepancy depending on what book you use. for example
    I played New Orleans Hornets/San Antonio Spurs under 197.

    Might have to switch if you keep winning.

    If it goes good tonight and I continue to do this I'm gonna start putting the bets in right before game time to ensure, its gonna be the right number. Like if I was putting the bets in right now I wouldn't be betting the Minnesota/memphis game, cause the total has dropped 1/2 a point and when I add the team totals up it hits 210 exactly.

    I just add the two team totals up for each individual game and if it exceeds the over/under line I bet the over and if it comes in under I take the under. if when I total the two team totals up it hits the exact over under number I don't bet the game. hardly a discovery though, hopefully it continues, but like I said if I continue to do it, the bets will be placed a couple minutes before each game begins.

    I took 3 of your games today for my first proper totals bets this year. Bored and needed some degen action. The Charlotte game is up to 181.5 here so I laid off. If these go 2-1 or better I'll be back to give you some points. Remind me if I happen to get busy and forget.

    I only played the 3 NBA ones and went 2-1 but I wimped out and hedged the NY one in the 4th quarter when they were starting to finally sink baskets.

    Great job though and thanks for taking the time to post these!!

    this is an excellent system if you just avoid the most obvious trap. you see two offensively gifted teams and the o/u is 180...stay away or take the under. there is integrity in sports but it is limited. my roommate made a lot of money doing the exact thing youre saying- looking up the team totals and adding. traps are traps. you dont believe in traps then youre naiive.
