Now at 188.5 I still like it to go under if there is no OT. If it goes over could hit 189 exact as far as the total for both teams.

Kobe shooting a long three.... kobe turning it over. Kobe is killing this team total 89 with 2 minutes to go.
Takes these idiots a full minute to decide if they just want to look at the replay. It's under 2 minutes you idiots, shouldn't take more than 3 seconds to decide if you run and look at the replay do you really need to gather all 3 dicks just to figure out if you SHOULD enforce a rule you have to use anyway. Not talking about them looking at the replay- talking about the discussion... whether they want to look at it or not.Last edited by H1Cypher; 02-23-12, 12:07 AM.Comment -
See.... that's how you know you were on the right side but fate was not on yours. 4 missed ft's in a row for the lakers.
That is flagrant lol can't expect that call late in the game though. He close lined him with both arms no play on the ball.
6 missed free throws in a row. C'mon this is unatural if I lose this. It's not missed shots 6 missed free throws. We know he is making 1 of 2 at least now... but still how did t hey miss 6 free throws in a row.Last edited by H1Cypher; 02-23-12, 12:15 AM.Comment -
Leans/Unofficial Plays: Paul Pierce Points over 17.5 -140
Unofficial Play: Live in play Lakers score over 93.5 -110
My first live in play post and it was a win nice =p. Went from 7-8 on my leans, 2-0 today to 9-8.
Barnes I expect him to go 1 for 2 but Kobe going 0 for 2 late in the game isn't expected. 2 straight misses from Pau also unexpected. Lakers should have knocked down some free throws got a stop and called it game. instead they missed allowed a three- missed allowed a 2. Let the game get closer- calling for more free throws now Dallas has a chance to win- thus game is extended thus more scoring. Lakers go over- but total of under 188.5 would have lost but it didn't. I didn't post the 188.5 as a play just talking about it.

Leans/Unofficial Plays: Amare Stoudemire Points Under 17.5 -135
Amare averages 1 less point on the road. His field goal percentage is also significantly lower on the road. The family loss may have hit him. Last time against the Heat he put up 14 shots and only had 12 points. Miami is a good defensive team. Alot of things not in Amare's favor that is why I'm picking this.

I will have an official live in play during the game most likely in the 3rd or 4th quarter. I also will try to get 1 in on the 1st or 2nd quarter.
I think Lebron will have a big game but no stats to substantiate that just a feeling. Not exactly going out on a limb though lolLast edited by H1Cypher; 02-23-12, 06:09 PM.Comment -
Score is too swingy combined with other things making it too hard to predict. Will likely wait for the next game to see if I can find a good live in play pick unless I see something during this game.Comment -
From 4:50 to 5:05 pm pac time score was as I predicted then from 5:05 pacific to 5:13 pacific everything went haywire there. I picked up on the score again the last 30 seconds but only cause of the late scores... very swingy game so it'll be tough to pin it right on the over or under.Comment -
Leans/Unofficial Plays: Amare Stoudemire Points Under 17.5 -135
Leans went 1-0 today, bringing the record from 9-8 to 10-8. Will try to post an official live in play for this game if I can.
I finally got a handle on the score very late in the game didn't get a chance to post. Lebron had a big game like I thought but not in terms of scoring but was very close to a triple double.

Official Live In Play: under for 2nd quarter 49.5 -115 to win: .5 unitsComment -
Only my number on the live bets is the winner it usually is razor close between winning and losing. That is in relation to the quarter bets. Like they just had 47.5 I still liked that one to go under but could easily go to 48. When I posted 49.5 and the total for the game- it was at the beginning right before the 2nd quarter had started check the time stamp.Comment -
When I posted 49.5 it was after the 1st quarter had ended that's the longest commercial interval during the game other than halftime. Under 47.5 would have been a winner also(that was up a couple minutes into the 2nd quarter).
What a lucky score by Harden score should be 44 to 43... man Lakers disapoint me so much this year.
Official Live In Play: under for 2nd quarter 49.5 -115 to win: .5 units
1-0 on the Official plays +.5 units. Units gained for the official plays are not as large as they can be as alot of bets have only been posted to win +.5 units.

Leans went 1-0 today with 1 pending.
Edit: I will not be posting halftime bets unless I have a good one. If I have something else I like during the third or before the 4th then maybe I will. It might be a crazy ending so I may just stop with a 3-0 day.Last edited by H1Cypher; 02-23-12, 11:00 PM.Comment -

Not making this official but there is alot of value in Team Chuck. We all know sophmores have the advantage in the rookie sophmore all star game... welll.....
Team Chuck has 7 sophomores versus Shaqs 4 sophomores. Also 2 of those guys may get more rest. Lin and Blake... I dunno about Blake cause he is a machine but we'll see. Wall could go for MVP... the 2 better guards are on Team Chuck. Kyrie Irving and John Wall. So much value in Team Chuck unless they know it is rigged why the hell is Chuck not favored.
7 sophomores vs 4 sophomores should say it all right there. Faster guards on Chuck's team. More street ballers on Chucks team. What does Shaq get the favoritism cause he has Blake? Or is it cause Chuck seems unlucky or setup to lose- if it is a flip then why isn't the better squad(team chuck) getting juiced.Last edited by H1Cypher; 02-24-12, 06:08 PM.Comment -
0/5 of the last Rookie Sophomore all star games have been decided by 5 points or less. It's either Team Chuck moneylin or Team Shaq point spread.Comment -
Yeah unless someone knows there is a fix there is no reason for anyone not to see huge value in +170. And if you do think it's fixed and Shaqs team will just take it home.... bet the spread -5 they will prolly win by more than 5.
I also like the scorers better on the Chuck Team and making it an exhibition just see value.Comment -
Easy arb for anyone who would want to arb out now for a guaranteed buck

How long have you been handicapping cypher?Comment -
For 8 months now. I've only had to make 1 deposit my entire limited gambling career though and I have a pretty big sample size for 8 months I just try to weed out the better picks.
Why do you ask? If you don't mind me asking =).
My specialties are: Live in play football, Live in play basketball, MMA, and basketball betting in general.
My losing sports are: Hockey.
Edit: Just checked the calendar make that 10 months lol.... but I didn't start capping Football until October 2011.Last edited by H1Cypher; 02-25-12, 01:26 PM.Comment -

You mean degen props? lol You want me to tell you what props I'm playing for the all star game? Or you mean MMA?
Oh college basketball. I don't do do college basketball haven't seen enough of it. Don't know what teams to bet it's a totally different dynamic than betting NBA games.Comment -
Yeah any MMA i mean other than kongo

Your record is very solid. I figured you have had some past history, but w/o write-ups or reasons about a lot of your picks it is hard to give them weight outside of your single season record.. I just wanted to do some research before I started tailing or using your picks as insight into other plays! Keep up the good work
Comment -
Probably because it is difficult to tail alot of my plays are an hour before tip off at the earliest. Sometimes 10 minutes before tip. Live in plays you pretty much have to be watching the game and be by a smart phone or at the computer to catch those.Your record is very solid. I figured you have had some past history, but w/o write-ups or reasons about a lot of your picks it is hard to give them weight outside of your single season record..

My MMA I feel best about are Cheick Kongo straight up, Cheick Kongo -3.5 at -195 if the fight ends inside distance and Kongo wins you win if it goes to decision as long as the cumulutive score is above 3.5 you win.
Frankie Edgar straight up.
If you don't want to bet on the result of the title fight and think it is too close you can take a look at +3.5 for Benson henderson. I doubt Edgar stops him.
I'm keeping it simple this event Kongo -3.5 points handicap(prop) and Frankie Edgar straight up.Comment -
I shouldve taken the +3.5 on Benson rather than the points. Pretty bad mma night for me with the Kongo and Edgar loss. Back at it once the NBA kicks off again.Comment -
Just an update I was looking at I started off the season red hot and have tapered off since for anyone wanting to tail me. Right before the all star break I hit a hot streak again, and I am hoping to continue it after the all star break.
This is my record up to the end of January not including any plays I made in february.

Early February there was a rough patch but I ended the month strong. Just some information in case anyone was curious I was curious myself.Looking back I wish I had just made my base unit +1 and my larger bet +2 units rather than +1 unit and +.5 units would have less confusing maybe nicer that way. I do plan on having 2 unit bets at some point though but not often.

I will start following you picks. Anything for the ASG tonight?Comment -
I'm going to also start a separate categorization for live in play college hoops. I've only watched 2 college games so far so I would not recommend anyone tail me. Going to post a live in play for this college game in the 2nd half if I see something.
College Basketball Live Play Record: 0-0Comment -
I could not in good consciousness tell someone to play a prop based on some demented idea I have... like Durant hitting more than 25 points cause his coach is the coach of the West team and he could go for all star mvp- since he has yet to win 1 and he is a 2x scoring champion. But at -115 you are much better off waiting for a real game and betting on a prop with more value.
One prop I noticed is Dwight Howard over .5 3 point field goals made. He averages 1/6 on 3s and he was 0/7 last year. So if he shoots another 6 or 7 I like his chances of hitting 1. IF he shoots another 6 or 7- but in all his all star games he averages 6 3pt shots. At +493 you can bet like 10 bucks on it and watch the game.Comment -
