I hate detroit riff its personal ha

[riffraff24]

hahahah! Alright bro. I missed a 5 teamer yesterday because Bama laid an egg. I know I shouldnt lay another parlay so ill hold off.

I have to disagree too. While you are risking a higher juice, and therefore have to right a higher amount of units, the addition of the points even out. If you have a line in your head, I see no problem with buying points to give you the best chance of winning.

i have no idea what your guys experience is but a lot of inexperienced bettors dont understand how much harder it is to win 57% long term over 55%....buying points CONSISTENTLY forces you to win a much higher percentage of games. even that 2% difference is extremely difficult.

most won't understand in a longer time frame what happens when they lose heavy juice. if they lose that day they just try again. if they win then they think wow it was worth paying -140 or -150...

unless you keep a betting log and see the difference between what the juice lost you over the course of a year or 2 or more...then you won't really see what i see.\

you can google the mathematics on it. if you do it very rarely and buy points around important numbers like 3,4,7,10 in football then it can make a small diff...

but buying points in cbb is completely pointless because points can be scored so instantly at the end of the game with fouls and free throws. in the long run you all lose by buying points. that's why books offer it. because buying points is a suckers bet. the juice you pay is not worth the points you are getting.

again, long term mathematics. most ppl just live in the moment and that day and dont look at bankroll and money management over months and years. consistenly buying points will lower your long term profits by the percentage difffernce in the points you buy (i.e -120 instead of -110). so if you make 6k in a year, by buying points a lot you could be reducing those profits by 10% or more depending on how much extra juice you're paying...that's 600/year you're canceling out.

plenty of games to play at -110. you only have to hit 53% to break even. after that you're making money. just my thoughts. i'm sure others disagree. all good

Agree completely. Excellent advice to our younger guys. Forget buying points in baskets. Just a fool's game.

And if I may add...any reduced juice, -105 [.5121 to break even] -107 [.5169 to break even], even -108 [.5192 to break even] is the real KEY to profitability over the long haul. Flat bet at reduced juice and this really gets easier boys .

[Gooooducks]

I want to pick both Uconn and Harvard.

[WIZARDOFBEANTOWN]

ncaa hoops
HARVARD/UCONN OVER 130 1x
Harvard +6.5 1x
kansas st -4 2x
nhll
detroit ml 1x
[vancouver ml -130 1x
over 5.5 goals for pitt/philly 1x

[dugdogg]

the uconn line is a trap 100%...how was kentucky a 5 or 6 pt favorite at home to UNC...and uconn is the same over harvard?? come on that spread should be way higher...vegas is trying to trap uconn backers. now, traps dont always work. uconn can certainly cover and vegas will take a small hit on the chin. but they are certainly hoping that the public is on uconn (always a big public fave) and that harvard covers...

if harvard wins somehow outright like UNLV beat UNC...man vegas will crush it with everyone who bet uconn ML, uconn in a teaser, parlays...blah blah...

definite trap here. i side with vegas when i spot these lines. i'll win more often than the public will

[CAS2550]

Like that Det Bean

Yep not a bad pick Buck. Harvard just stunk up the joint, too many turnovers and missed too many easy buckets.
