ya I thought I had lost this one. Shaping up to be a good day.

brian123321 · 03-10-13, 07:34 PM

That's gonna be all for today. Don't see anything else I like at this point.

Coreos · 03-10-13, 07:55 PM

Yea, tomorrow's another day. I wasn't able to tail some of your picks (at work) so I'll be looking forward to your picks tomorrow. Nice bounce back today.

Bwahaha, wtf was that at the end of the Manhattan game??? Glad we covered buddy.

brian123321 · 03-11-13, 10:35 PM

I turned it off with a second left what happened? Hoping the Knicks come out strong second half

Coreos · 03-12-13, 04:31 AM

Sorry man, didn't see your question earlier. Iona had the inbound ball with 1 sec left and were charged a technical for getting on the floor before end of game. 2 free throws and Manhattan covered. Can not make this stuff up.

If you don't mind me asking, how has the switch up in methodology been working for you? I know you mentioned the martingale strategy limited you on picks since you had to wait for results first, but did that allow for you to pick and choose more decisively? Just wondering as it seemed like you were "actively" seeking plays as the previous plays weren't hitting? Maybe I'm wrong, but that was the impression I was getting. I do agree that the martingale strategy seems too cumbersome for multiple hits since you may be stuck with several C bets, etc.

I was actively seeking plays whether or not my previous one was looking good because i wanted to cram in as many games per day i could since i was not able to make multiple picks at the same time doing the martingale strategy. However, i noticed three things i did not like about choosing this strategy. I was not able to pick multiple games during the same time slot, i was not able to pick any of the games started within 2 hours of the first pick because i had to wait to see how that pick did and it was also forcing me to sometimes make plays that i normally would have totally left out because i wanted to get in another game before the end of the night since i was not able to pick more than one game at a time. I also didnt like the fact that if there was a 7pm game i really liked i would not be able to pick it because i would instead want to pick a 6pm game because that meant i could get in more bets by the end of the night.

The martingale strategy worked really well when i was only picking one game at a time but i noticed a few days ago i really would have been put to the test if i had continued that strategy. I had that 1-5 day not too long ago and i cant remember if i finished off the previous nights late game with a loss. Either way that day would not have shaped up much different under the martingale strategy. I remember looking at my picks that night after the games where over and realizing had i still been using the martingale strategy i would have lost 3 to 4 in a row and be looking at a D or E bet which gets really scary and is getting to the brink of destruction.

The way im picking games now is the same i was under the martingale strategy. I am still using the same system, however, i am able to pick more games. I have also noticed that so far since stopping the martingale strategy that made more units in this amount of time than i would have had made using the martingale system. Thats mostly because i can now throw down multiple unit bets on games i really like. A few days ago i went 4-1 but it really was like going 6-1 since i won two 2 unit bets.

So again to answer the question the system i am using to make my picks is still the same it was before i am just able to make a lot more picks now and not risk getting into very scary situations if i have a bad day.

Arizona St +3.5

brian123321 · 03-13-13, 11:11 AM

SMU +2.5 -> If anyone trails me on this you may want to wait this line might go up to +3. I cant wait for that because i have a work function that will keep me busy til 4pm today so i have to lock in all early afternoon bets right now. I know there are a lot of good cappers on the other side of this game on other sites but i like SMU

Coreos · 03-13-13, 12:47 PM

OK, thanks for the explanation. Not busting your balls or anything, just curious how the change was going. These last several days have been brutal - just some weird games (Iona, under Memphis, etc). Good luck today.

brian123321 · 03-13-13, 01:41 PM

Making Arizona st a 2 unit bet

Nice hits on the first two. Thought ASU screwed it up by going into OT, but they pulled it off.
