    My Monday Night ALL IN MOMENT

    well.... as some of you know got wiped out on saturday.... got My Bankroll on Pats ML, and then when they win i will be left with a pittance in my account, so....

    I am having one of those sad cliche gambling moments where I will go all in on Monday night, I already decided a big leg of it will be the Trailblazers, but....

    not that many here would ever do this but if you had to go all in on any one basketball game, which would it be and why??

    games i am looking at are....

    Kansas
    Marquette/Louisville
    St Marys/gonzaga
    Magic/Mavericks

    already gonna use Trailblazers....

    so have some fun with this fun hypothetical for you and sad reality for me....

    which team would you go all in with and why?

    Thanks for any replies

    hmmm....

    Dallas Mavericks
    New Orleans Hornets

    ML Parlay would pay around 6-1 possibility

    I drive past Pepperdine to work everyday...all they do is shoot 3's....they are 3-11 since December 1...San Diego was favored vs UNLV (17-4 )and lost in the 3rd game of the year...the only game they've been favored and lost this year...

    I certainly wouldn't recommend putting your entire roll on a single game, but if you're inclined to do so, put it on the Jazz -3 tomorrow.

    Pepperdine's leading scorer from last year was dismissed from the school before the season started...

    i was looking at it...but kinda w/ how i feel about nc state...nova's guard play has been not so hot lately but that 4 game skid is bound to end soon...this COULD be the game for it...

    Syracuse shot almost 63% from the field...worst all year Nova has given up...and yes, this isn't a Big East game so you'd think a better game is coming...

    but I really like Louisville plus pts...Marquette is getting out rebounded 5 boards per conference game...was outrebounded 7 games in a row until Cincy game...both teams play great defense...both cause opps to have more turnovers then they give up...and Louisville beat them by 20 at home earlier this year

    I took a great 2 team ML Parlay at +130

    $750 / $975

    Chattanooga over Western Carolina.
    Chattanooga is 9-3 in-conference compared to WCar who is 2-9. WCar only beat abysmal Elon (5-8) and Furman (3-10) teams at home and have been beaten handily otherwise. Chattanooga also beat them once this year on their homecourt by 30. This will obviously change but I don't see any way Western Carolina can pull off the win.

    San Diego
    over Pepperdine
    San Diego is 5-1 in-conference opposed to Pepperdine's 1-5 record. Pepperdine's only in-conference win was against Loyola Marymount who are 4-18 overall. Pepperdine's also without their coach and have lost 9 of their last 11 games. San Diego recently beat 21st ranked St. Mary's and are winners of 5 of their last 6. I feel San Diego cruises in this one.

    I really like that parlay ... Portland is pretty awful and frequently gets blown out. Santa Clara is clearly the better team .. I just stayed away because I haven't followed them that much this year and don't know enough about them. Good luck!
