    Did You Know Kentucky Has Lost 13 Straight ATS?

    No, I have no action on Kentucky / Arkansas tonight but I just thought it was a fun fact to point out.

    I like how your claiming it's inflated by 1 point when even if the line opened up at what you think it should be you would still say the line was inflated by 1 point

    Never ever do this. People have started doing this after they lost 1 game ats, 2 games ats, 5 games ats, 10 games ats, etc. etc.

    It is now at 13. You ride the train until it stops if you are basing your plays based on streaks.

    Actually no, believe it or not I practice what I 'preach'.

    Put simply, if you cannot come up with a number which is within one point of what the books are offering 80-85% of the time, you are doing something wrong and it is very unlikely that you are part of the 5% that Sam refers to above. Real edges, are hard to come by these days in major sports. If your numbers consistently/significantly differ from those offered by the books you either a) are a genius and have found the 'holy grail' or b) might as well be throwing darts.

    Sure they have lost 13 straight ATS but many of them by really small margins. Not as significant as if it would have been many games not even close to spread.

    Oh I know I can give a zillion examples where I have won doing that and lost doing that. Like 8 years ago when The devil rays were terrible they won like 6 in row. I started betting against them 50 100 200 ect. I stopped after they won 12 in a row. They won 13 before they lost. I was buried! I would only do a unit then another. Vegas can't let people win fading them all season. I have gone against them every game since that rigged Louville cover. So it's time to go the other way! It's been like 7 or so wins going against them.

    sure sign of shit coaching, which has reached epidemic proportions in the Bluegrass State.

    i thought yesterday's Pitino rant was out of my system, but i guess there was a little left.

    It's only a 10 dime play so this may be the night he wins since this is his smallest play.

    Yup..like I said, when Lang was on it, I knew it was over. Kentucky hasn't covered all year, I have taken and lost with them several times, the first time I bet against them, Lang goes the same way and I lose. Still won for the night though. I hedged at halftime of that game and took Kentucky -5.5..which they covered easily.

    this wasnt entirely true, they had a half point cover against loyola md (maybe a push depending on your closer) around christmas and they covered the first 3 games. still sick about the louisville game. only a calipari lead team could have a streak like that

    the total was quite crazy both teams pushing at the end of a complete massacare to put the game over or give bettors a push on 149.
