hanger one more question and ill stop buggin ya lol... virginia is 15-1 when they score over 70 pts with their coach and iowa st is averaging 80 a game 130 is kinda low could this be a shootout and a easy play on the over

Hanger · 12-30-10, 08:07 PM

Come on Georgia St, keep up what you started in the 1H boys!!!

Youngbuck- I have taken a hiatus from totals as I was losing left and right......numbers were right, i just kept being on the wrong side lol...Virginia is tough to cap right now IMO, they are totally sliding, and no idea when it stops

I dont think Virginia scores 70 tonight....I see it as kind of like a 71-59 Iowa St win kinda game Virginia is only shooting 37% from the field....Iowa St is getting it at 46%. VA throws up like 18 3s a game, and is only hitting again like 35%. Seems anything but an easy play on the over here with as streak as Virginia can be, and has been.

Hanger · 12-30-10, 08:26 PM

My bad Youngbuck- to start doesn't look like Oral showed up....never know though still early...

You were one of the select few on Furman. Great job and thanks for the tip. Did not even have to sweat the game!
Props to you!

Balco10 · 12-30-10, 10:11 PM

Hanger · 12-30-10, 10:12 PM

4-5 ARGH Stupid play(Wofford)...really thought Cal Poly and Az St were going to play tonight....ODU got dominated...note the pun lol Really regret not getting North Texas in along with Fullerton....thats ok though, still getting a few kinks out, just have to narrow down the leans a bit differently to try and be on the right plays more often, But....
Up Units on the day due to the way I played my picks. This hurts the overall % but- up big units, WOOOOO

59.61% | 121-82-5 YTD Now that conference play has started, I think I am going to tighten up the reins a bit and be more selective with some of my plays. I know I have said it before, but Gtown 2H, Wofford 2H, and a few other 2H plays I believe are coming out of my arsenal.

Early games tomorrow!!!! Time to get cappin!

Had to bring that up didnt ya...hmmpf!! LOL, nice call on the Oakland play!!

Balco10 · 12-31-10, 12:49 AM

That Furman play helped me add
Long Beach State ML and Washington
Huskies +14...
Looking forward for your plays tomorrow.
A lot of early games.

Hanger · 12-31-10, 09:59 AM

Well- there are no plays today I am as confident with as I was yesterday....but still a few that I like here...
819 Kentucky +3 -110* vs Louisville

This is a hard games to call- instate rivalry blah blah blah....with that said Ken is a better rebounding team(Especially with Lou injuries) and slightly better at FTs I think that is the difference here for Kentucky. They might be able to win outright here...

821 James Madison +4½ -110* vs Kent State
This looks like it should be about a 2 point game at the end of the day. JMU is better shooting from 2s and FTs and that should be the difference in another tight game. I am expecting Kent to put up about 20 3pt attempts.

There are definitely better plays out there, but for me, I really like these 2 to start today off with. I want to pull the trigger on Northwestern as I think it is close, but I decided the game is not for me. IE its gonna win lol....BOL to all today and I will be back in a bit!!

Hanger · 12-31-10, 11:38 AM

So I pulled the trigger
817 Northwestern +10½ -105* vs Purdue

This line went from 11-10 as I was typing this....interesting

Northwestern is shooting 55% on their 2pt shots, I expect a moderate paced game with a total around 130 points. The question err problem I might have here is Northwestern is allowing opponents to shoot 50% on their 2 pt shots. The smarter play here looks like it might have been Northwestern 1H. Oh well....its almost tip time and I pushed this game.....lets hope it doesnt come back to bite me here.

I am eyeing Minnesota and College of Charleston here as well. Oh the games I like keep growing lol

JGetz · 12-31-10, 11:51 AM

Any of the early totals catch your eye?

Didn't really spend much time on totals. I don't know off the top of my head but I think minnesota is a good under candidate-dunno the line or stats here. But its big ten lol

Depending what purdue team shows up the might tempt the over here. BOL today.

YOUNGBUCK · 12-31-10, 12:04 PM

im on purdues side of this game hanger and louisville!

Do you post these, just started checking the thread now, dont see it in your picks.

YOUNGBUCK · 12-31-10, 01:22 PM

Not me I went opposite way and took kentucky haha come on purdue stop that ugly russian!

Hanger · 12-31-10, 01:29 PM

Northwestern drew it real close now it looks like Purdue blew it back open...going to be close I think coming down to a possible backdoor...hmmmm

Lets go KY!!!

For the most part no, and I will explain why. Too often I have seen people blame others for their losses when tailing....my bankroll may be larger or smaller than yours, and I don't want to say I put 10 units on a play when you and you alone should use bank roll management to best decide your bet size.

I have thought about doing it again, but I am not too sure I want the headache.....perhaps I will start doing it again after Jan 1.

No coincidences · 12-31-10, 01:33 PM

Nice call on Kentucky, Hanger. I was on the opposite side.

Thats a fair reason. Its just as the plays are posted it makes them look equal but you clearly dont think they are since you're betting more on some then others. I hope you do start posting unit sizes again, or give out some sort of indication which plays you think are stronger. Maybe group them or something.

I realize it can be a hassle dealing with someone that lost 20x cause they tailed a big play and blame you, but thats just how these forums are. I'm sure people blame you even if they are losing 1x on a 2-3 night you can't avoid that imo.
