    LT, do you think that there is something structural which hurts handicappers during conference play?

    It seems like my results are always worse after Jan 1 until the tournament, and while I may still have some value, it's tough to really believe that with RAS not even willing to play during conference play anymore.

    There's less variability when you have so many data points against the same teams to analyze games, yet it seems like every "sharp" struggles just picking sides/totals this time of year. It's always tough to know what's variance on coin flips, and my results seem like just that--great weighted coin flips during the tournaments and non-conference early season play, and I may as well be flipping at -110s during conference play.

    If they can hit 3s they can keep it close, and the slow pace will help, but I'm on UCLA

    -15, and 115 total means a correlated parlay is in order.

    I believe that the main reason it becomes more difficult to win is simply that the lines are sharper. No question that you have to shift gears more than once as the season progresses. You can win in the last couple of months, but margins are much more slim than before.

    Tournaments are a completely different animal....very tough. I think that there is a window in all major markets when you better make it. Once that window closes, it's a grind to say the least.

    Rough day man. 2-8. Stay strong. You'll get these units back in cbb. Saturday could be a big day with bracketbusters.

    Wow LT me and you both killed this week! I am highly considering to take the opposite of everything I like today. This is insane! I lost half of the units I was up for the season in 3 days!

    Yeah 2-16 last two days. Profit down to +1.36. It will turn around though, it always does.
