    I have three nba plays still going tonight. Nothing wrong with a little breather after yesterday,s monster day. I have found that it is very rare to post back-to-back big days that match what we did Friday.


    Mlb is right around the corner.

    john, im sure i missed you tonight but i was wondering how you feel about line movements and how it affects your betting. Sometimes it seems like you can bet games strictly on which way the lines are moving and do ok with that. I feel like everytime i bet a game and the line moves not in my favor I lose. So i was wondering if you had any idea what the win percentage was of strictly lines that move. such as a fav covering that moved from 7 to 7.5 or 8 or a dog covering with vice versa. not talkin rlm or percentages of bets on either side just strictly line movement, any circumstance. Can it be a winning strategy?

    Hey John, just reading your pick on the under for Ohio vs. South Florida, 1st half total is at 53.5, would you play that 1st half total?

    After reading the article I see Gtown and the under in the USF game are 10* plays, however I do not see anywhere in the writeups where it states if UNC and KU are 5*, 10*, or 20* plays.

    Well, the reason you may feel that way, is that the public gets all over the play after you have made it. So, you are getting a favorable line, but when the public gets enamored with a side, it does throw up a red flag. I certainly would not make any strategy based on late line movements. Sometimes there are facts that make the lines move, but never think that wow, the line is moving, someone knows something. I woudl recommend just following along here and get a feel for how I present the plays and wagering strategies.

    John,

    I see an O/U play made it up 2 board. That play was curious to me but I don't play unders that low at 116. Big balls. What about the over on FSU/Cincy at 126.5? Seems nice.

    Sorry should I be pleased when a team we bet on plays the way georgetown has played today? They get bounced early every year and its because of their coaching and lack of effort and smart play...thats why im so angry...i dont care about losing bets but when teams settle for contested outside shots for the entire forty minutes, don't rebound the ball (includingiving up 3 offensive rebounds after missed free throws) and get completely out hustled. Thats when I get pissed off.

    Understandable, but you shouldn't blame John Ryan for a "terrible bet" when he had nothing to do with their lack of effort.

    hey john i know you like unc to cover but what about the under? every time creighton has played any decent defense the total has come no where near 160? especially with signs pointing to henson will play i just see this being a 78 to 66 kinda game...idk just looks like it might be safer play. especially since barnes played on same high school team as the star player from creighton so they should have a understanding for each other also...idk just a thought.

    Good thoughts. However as I watch this game unc may score 90 or more. I really had no opinion on the total

    Yes, there is always a risk that a team will play poorly and there is always an opportunity that's team will better than expected. Since I have winning records in all sports I think we have had our share of teams playing well. There is always the chance you get a poorly coached game once Ina while.
