streak at 2.


Youkilis

[losturmarbles]

cricket in the morning lol

pakistan vs australia

Abu Dhabi is almost a home game for paki

bet365 lines: paki 13/10 (+130) vs aus 8/13 (-162.5)

guess i risk my 2 streak (if orlando wins) on australia

[pico]

fvcking celtics.

back to 0

pakistan cricket next

[yisman]

Youkilis got screwed out of the win. He didn't score because Ortiz's double was ruled a ground rule double. Ended up on 3rd, not scoring. The other time Lowell didn't drive him in.

Yankees also intentionally walked him, but they didn't count walks.

Got a push, went with Australia, but it looks like Pakistan will win. This match is taking forever.

[yisman]

Australia came back and won.

Streak at 3.

Missed soccer and I'm not interested in picking that anyway.

Not sure about any of the picks tonight. I'll take another look later, maybe.

Glad Australia hit, otherwise it would've annoyed me to have missed a pick.

Streak at 2....going w/ the Braves, then Lakers winning margin

  Pak just hit a grand slam, we're done!!

yep, those are the people playing streak for the cash.

Almost no one there had a #*^$#ing clue, but they kept yacking and yacking.

I don't know anything about cricket, so I don't talk about it.

This one was a longer match so it took like 7 hours.

There were still morons saying Pakistan was going to win at the end.

Pak is clearly in the lead, for those wondering. But since no one woud put a decent size streak on this, it really doesnt matter.

[losturmarbles]

streak at 3

going to pick one of the following

boston mlb
colorado mlb
anaheim nhl

i'm leaning anaheim right now.

gl

[losturmarbles]

fck it, im taking boston then anaheim.

[yisman]

Deron Williams/Margin is a complete tossup. Look at the history. Only pick that if at 0.

I may pick the Dodgers. Still deciding.

[pico]

streak 1

ducks

[pico]

cricket sucks.

[yisman]

dodgers it is

[yisman]

ha, puckline on Rangers-Washington up as a prop.

[losturmarbles]

streak at 4, on anaheim

ha, puckline on Rangers-Washington up as a prop.

rangers gave up 2 games ago. sad when you consider they were up 3-1.

the other nhl prop is interesting too

Power Play + Shorthanded Goals (car vs nj) (nj should be a big fav here since nj pen kill has been stellar)


i think i may take bolelli in tennis in the morning

he's only getting 8% of espn, line at pinny -110/-106, at 5dimes -130/+110

[yisman]

amazing line disparity there.

Looks like I lost my streak.

I'll be taking tennis as well, if the Dodgers don't somehow come back.

  As for the matchup, Simone Bolelli is currently 2-1 on clay this year and lost in the third round of the ATP World Tour Masters 1000 5-7, 6-7 (2) to Ivan Ljubicic, who lost the quarterfinals in straight sets to Rafael Nadal, who was ranked 1st at the time (the tournament started April 12). In the same tournament Philipp Kohlschreiber lost in the second round in straight sets to Fernando Verdasco, who was ranked 8th at the time. Bolelli beat Kohlschreiber 6-4, 6-3 on a hard court in 2008. Based on these statistics and the fact that Bolelli is playing in his home country, I will be choosing Bolelli.
  You can see head-to-head stats for these two players here:

  i say it's a toss-up, but I'm favoring Bolleli this time. He's only 6-9 and Kohls is 10-8 this year, but that's more or less the same. I think Vegas has this as a pick em

  They are even bets on http://www.####.com /?******=8759
  Both of them are -120
  Usually the streakmaster puts games up that he thinks the lower % will win so go with Bolelli if you have to pick. But with a nice streak I would stay away.

  Yeah, I really don't get the huge difference in percentages.. Bolelli has beat him head to head, is home, and is only 2 spots below him in the national rankings. 2 spots is going to be an 86% swing? I doubt everyone looks at overall records which is the only thing that kohlschreiber has a more distinct advantage in, but even that isn't that much and doesn't mean anything in regards to this matchup.

  See if you are worried about the percentages and are wondering why there is such a gap in them don't be because 92.9% of people are looking at the world rankings and calling Kohlschreiber the win. The facts say that Bolelli is the favorite by far.1) He as somebody already has said has beaten the German once in the past year.2) He practically has home court advantage.3) He is a much better clay than the German. So don't go with the masses take Bolelli. God Bless All!!!!

  Bolelli is better on clay and he's got home court. Throw out the rankings and go with the favorite: Bolelli

Streak of 1 w/ Lakers margin of victory yesterday

Going w/ Barcelona at home today in soccer, then IDK.....I wanna go w/ 2 night gms, but most likely that means both NBA gms,

Rose Vs. Rondo is tough and in MLB, either Mets or NYY. Yankees can't keep losing can they???

For late gms, I like Portland to have bigger margin of victory then Spurs.

Or SF Hits over Strikeouts.

[pico]

sharks sucks

barcelona to win

[yisman]

tennis canceled. taking barcelona

[SamsNCharge99]

Barcelona DOMINATED the game, but couldn't get a goal. There goes my streak of 1.....LOL

So I want to pick 2 gms tonight obv. and decided I will go w/ the 2 NBA gms. I will go w/ Rondo over Rose and then win or lose, go w/ Portland to have bigger margin of victory of Spurs.

I do like Rangers to win or lose by 1 goal or lose, but that could easily lose. Plus, IDK if there would be time after to pick any late matchup and I don't like anything in the late MLB game.

So, Rondo and Portland

Current Streak at -1

[losturmarbles]

streak at 5

got lucky with the tennis canceled. it was delayed a bit but bolelli won the first set and lost the next 2 bad. was wondering why it was canceled, but i guess espn figured with the bad weather they were going to postpone the match.

i see they changed the nhl car vs nj prop of pp and shg goals to just the straight up winner. that prop had a good chance of ending a 0-0 tie. i'm a carolina homer, but im not risking my 5 streak on the canes.

washington will embarrass nyr tonight. they should win like 4-0.

my pick is wash -1.5

portland lvm seems like a good pick also.

[yisman]

Rangers-Capitals will probably end at about the same time as the NBA game.

Losing streak of two after Barcelona played to a scoreless draw. I'm taking Devils and then, assuming it ends in time, the Dodgers.

[pico]

streak 0

portland bigger margin

[losturmarbles]

wash finally starts to play in the 3rd, score with 5 minutes left, then the last 2 minutes nyr couldnt even get ludquist off the ice, so no empty netter

streak at -1

portland

[SamsNCharge99]

Well, another OT gm for Boston/Bulls, so I can't go w/ Portland for MOV over Spurs....Rondo is clearly gonna win, so I'm hoping there's time for the MLB late gm which I didn't want to pick, but if I have to, w/ only a streak of 1, I might as well.

Rondo is gonna win which gives me a streak of 1. Gonna go w/ SF hits over Billingsly K's.

[yisman]

managed to sprint to a computer in time to get Billingsley Ks. Had no time to research it. I had thought it was Dodgers or Giants. I just faded the public.


crazy sports night. Was watching two Game 7s, plus Bulls-Celtics, plus Mets-Marlins.

[pico]

streak 1

manu to win

[Shortstop]

Streak at 2. Taking the Cubs and then the Twins.

[SamsNCharge99]

Got a push on the Giants hits vs. K's fro Billingsly

Streak of 1

Man U
Chase Utley
IDK about O/U yet for 10:40 gm

[BeatTheJerk]
