I see value in Houston +1000 ML

[remmy358]

I know it sounds crazy to bet Houston in LA in game 7, but I think +1000 has a lot of value. Is anyone else taking this?

[UntilTheNDofTimE]

might as well burn your money or give it to charity

[big joe 1212]

I might not like the rockets at 10-1, but I sure as hell wouldnt lay that kind of money on the lakers

[DwightShrute]

Lakers at home game 7 , I say the Lakers will win BIG. 20 +

[d2bets]

They definitely win in more than 1 in 11 games. Yes, there is value. Play the spread and 1/5 of that on the ML.

[Tsoprano]

Rockets moneyline and spread for me

[pavyracer]

The problem with this bet is David Stern. Not only you are fighting Kobe on the road but also Stern's will which the refs are already aware. Look for Hayes and Battier to be called on cheap fouls early to help the Lakers post up game and open the lanes for Kobe.

I like it.

yeah that's what some people said when i bet the rockets +400 last game, don't worry, i wouldn't use anymore than 1/20th of my winnings on the +1000 bet.

[RonPaul2008]

Good luck!

Love people who think longshots can never happen.

[RonPaul2008]

Houston could win, but I think L.A. will take game 7.

At what probability?

[RonPaul2008]

I think L.A. will win by 7.

At what probability?

[d2bets]

I think L.A. will win by 7.

Didn't answer my question. What chance does Houston have to win? 2%? 8%? 12%? 20%?

i was on the rockets last game i just dont feel theyll win a game 7 in la , it can happen but very unlikely specially when the nba wants la vs cle so u got everything going against you here,

[remmy358]

the point of this thread isn't to say that i think houston will win. i def. think LA will win the game. but at 10 to 1 odds i think houston plays good enough defense to maybe stay in the game and have a shot of shocking the world in the 4th quarter. adelman would love to get revenge for those kings/lakers series he got screwed out of in the early 2000's too, not that it matters, but there's history between these coaches. if the artest and battier can lock kobe down again anything can happen because brooksy and scola are playing great. i just think the line should maybe be +700 not +1000, LA has been matched step for step by houston this series and it's not unthinkable that they can't pull off the upset.

[d2bets]

Houston already won in LA. I think they win this 1 out of every 5 tries. Line should be around LA -8. Hou is great value.

[remmy358]

like KG says, anything is possssssssssibbbbbbbbbbbbleeeeeeeeeeee

basically, if KG can win a title, anything is possible. and that's the truth.

[d2bets]

If Hou is hitting 3's and LA is cold...

I just cant count on Fisher, Ariza, Walton et al

[flyingillini]

I am on the Rockets ML

That win was when Yao was playing.

[RonPaul2008]

Big whoop. I like Yao, but they may be more dynamic and loose without him.

[VegasDave]

Considering the series has gone to 7, you'd think Houston had a 10% chance of winning.

[d2bets]

16%

Sounds reasonable.

what was that horse name? Mine that bird? 50-1 odds?

Ding Ding Ding! Couldn't have said it better myself.

[theplagy]

Exactly....

Same thing with the UEFA champions league lock

Platini didn't want another all-English finals

gave the game to Barca..

It's not the beauty of the game. It's business

[d2bets]

what was that horse name? Mine that bird? 50-1 odds?

I had MTB at 130-1 at 5Dimes.

[RonPaul2008]

nice hit! Did they knock down your limits yet?

I had MTB at 130-1 at 5Dimes.

[walbjj]

goddam lakers dont deserve the series, but they will most probably win. famous last words

[Shumakov]

Lakers 20+

[LT Profits]

No value at all at +1000, I feel I am being generous when I say that the Rockets win this Game 7 on the road with their current roster 5% of the time. That makes break-even price +1900.
