STL / BUTLER Today = Cincy / UConn Yesterday

[124]

Same scenario as Uconn game yesterday. Cincy was the play at -1 / -1.5 but PUBLIC was POUNDING UCONN n the Line kept moving in favor of UConn. StL is the play here at +2 but the PUBLIC is POUNDING Butler and the line continues to move -2 / -2.5 / -3.

I'd put my Money on BUTLER even tho I capped the game and STL is the Play.


Bottom line, Im staying away from this game. But if u must bet, Put your money on BUTLER

[Frisco]

Staying away is probably wise but the cincy/conn outcome doesn't affect this game. Public thinks they learned a lesson yesterday and could easily be wrong again

It's pretty simple. During timeouts and commercial breaks they post new lines/totals for games that have live betting. These are usually the nationally televised games. All you have to do is go to Straight and RIF and then under basketball click on Live In Play to see what games will have live betting for the game. Be careful you know what you're betting though b/c they offer lines for quarters, halves, and the game live

A lot of times (especially on NBA games) you can get a team you like at a lot better line live if their opponent just goes on 1 small run which happens all the time in the NBA

Ya I'm sure u could make some good money that way, but it seems like a BIG HEADACHE to me. Seems to me like I would overthink it, cuz I know how Ball works, 5min runs, 10min runs, and worst dry runs. Teams can be shooting the 3 ball at a 75% rate for 5 min and then go cold for 15min and then hot again for 5min (Arkansas yesterday) ...I think I will just cap the games and continue to take the spreads on Games instead of quarters halves and all that. Thank you for the info tho

[124]

I capped this game and I got BUTLER -1 so if Butler is now -3 The play is STL +3!! Be careful with this one guys. In my opinion, stay away and take another game. Or wait for tomorrow.

do you somehow forget that cinci/uconn game went OT ?

it's a coin flip, that's all

No, its not a coin flip. I capped the game at Cincy -1.5... Cincy was up 2 and had the ball. costly turn over as he crossover right past mid court to take it to OT and then u know the rest. However I would take that 10 out of 10 times. And lose 1 of them, (yesterdays game)

[124]

I win more games then I lose on a daily basis. So if you continue to bet same amount of units on STRAIGHT bets u will profit. I dont care about the public, and I dont care about fixed games and all that. More often then not, I will be on the winning side rather then the losing side. The right play for me was Cincy yesterday. I lost. Not a big deal, I won on 7 games last night so I can afford a couple losses.

[Kira]

Cincy was definitely the right side, they're one of the best rebounding teams, while Uconn cant rebound at all, but it's still a coin flip with the short line nevertheless.

my point is that there are many better games to be played, why bother with this one

[124]

Cuz we are degenerates. Simple as that. I've said I'm going to stay away from this game OVER n OVER n OVER today. In the end, I will probably bet STL +3 hahaha I HATE THIS ADDICTION!!

nice reply there

my personal opinion : 80% public on butler, butler got blown out last game against STL, it seems like STL is the play. but wait, this is a revenge game, I just cannot bet against butler in this spot

Agree that fair line is Butler -1 which is what it opened at and also agree that there is "line value" with St. Louis. Very difficult situation for them, however, and I believe Butler wins in this situation 6 of 10...minimum.

Ya u make a good point. It seems like Saint Louis has to play A VERY GOOD mistake free game to win here. So with that said, Butler should win ...........Way too much thinking in this one. I'm skipping it, I'm already looking at the early games tomorrow. I'll make a new thread for that shortly

[mistermatt891]

i wanna bet this game but its too close

might just bet butler ml for small

[stevenash]

i wanna bet this game but its too close

Don't bet it then.
There are like 100 games tomorrow (Saturday) take the night off.

Im just curious...I certainly have my times when I just degenerately pick with my gut...and then I have my times when I spend 30 minutes researching a game from injuries, to last 5-7 games played, to history between teams, and so on. But I have never used the phrase, or knowingly said, I capped this game at -1 or -6...I say to myself, I think they can cover/not cover. What is a consistent criteria for "capping" a game? Like I said, I do my research, but do most cappers follow the same criteria? Or does each capper follow his own method and then just give a projected outcome?

We do our own method of madness.

Saint Louis wins SU (lets get paid)...

NBA on Fridays are usually brutal.. at least the board fills up with alot of complaining. But I'm going with the over.. close game of teams that went over the current total already even with a massive amount of turnovers. Close game means higher chance of a 10-15 pt foul situation boost for the total with a minute to go.. but I don't think this game will need it at 124 lol
