    Balls, Tenn Tech and Drexel both covered, so platinum sides had at least 2 wins.

    But I fear Purdue in West Lafayette over anyone lately.

    My Platinum totals went 3-1 and my side possible (9-4) and strong (2-1) plays did really well too. The platinum sides were about the only ones that lost (of course).


    You can feel free to post your platinum sides (or any others) in here if you want. Like I said, I like having two different systems that agree on plays and we are using totally different formulas etc...


    We may need to get together one day and discuss how to best use the software...

    Thanks bro!!

    I just copied and pasted from the software. I guess i need to manually do it or at least double check the results when I post them. Without looking, I am guessing the line changed or something on one of those to make it a loss with the new line in the software.?.?


    thanks again

    It's really not complicated. The software does all of the work after you setup your formulas. They don't really give all of the details on how they do it, but you can see most of the parameters in the software. In other words, they have a secret ingredient in the software that you don't see.

    I double checked. The closing line won at 4.5, but the posted play lost at 3.5 so it is still a loss for the records on here.


    That was actually one of my plays. Fortunately, I played it after work when it was up to 4.5.

    Balls,
    how do you bet your platinum sides? every game or just research them and pick a few? do you use equal units on all bets? just curious how you keep all these "plays" straight

    I research every game before I play it. I just use these as an additional tool. I do not blindly follow except every now and then when I don't have time to cap or am too tired or whatever.

    I usually make every play the same size, but will sometimes make bigger plays if I really like a play.


    These are off to a slow start so far since I started posting them. I figured it would be like that, lol. That is the way it always goes.

    Hopefully they will kick in gear before long.

    Are they off from the opening line? Hopefully by not much.

    I let the program get those lines by clicking a download from internet button. I have been manually entering the totals because the software gets the totals way too late.


    I may need to manually enter the side lines as well. I did that for football, but it is so much easier to click the button I haven't done it for the sides in hoops.

    I need to find out where the software gets their lines from.I think it is from covers or somewhere like that.

    I will try to manually do the lines for sides for tomorrow.

    Ok, thanks. I will plan on manually entering the lines from now on.


    I am going to run them again with those lines and adjust the plays accordingly.

    Thanks man!!!!

    I hope it turns around. It has been doing well for weeks now. That is why I started posting it because I hoped it would help others a little bit. Of course it has to hit a rough patch as soon as I start posting it.


    that is my life story though

    LOL, there were those beers I was talking about. I knew something wasn't right. I played E KY, but had Jack St in the platinum plays so I actually did have a winning day with the platinum picks. I had E KY on my hand written paper since that is what I played and was counting that eky/jackst game as a loss.

    Consensus Totals Friday 1-8-09

    I made a slight change to the Platinum side plays, but for today I am leaving the totals alone since there are only 4 plays. There would be 3 plays today with the change I was going to make. However, looking at the numbers it looks like on most days and overall the change would produce more plays and that is the opposite of what I want so I am going to think about what I want to do a bit more before I change anything.

    Saturday Platinum Sides

    As always, just use these as a tool. There are way too many to play or fade all of them.



    The adjustments I made only knocked the total number of plays for today from 20 to 18. I wish it would have halved them. I can control the number of side plays, but the platinum is going to be more difficult to change the number of plays.
