What’s your feeling on the lynx vs dream tonight?

I’m thinking lynx have to win tonight to keep their playoff hopes alive

**thomorino** · 08-05-18, 11:31 AM

Ah I obviously like the Lynx, they were tired against Seattle but they played well in the first half, this game really is their season, they can't lose 3 straight coming out of the break this late.

Close to a full card, brethren. So many options you don't need progressive.

Bought a couple of points still looking at ATL @ MIN and PHX @ LA.

Basketball WNBA - Las Vegas Aces @ Connecticut SunTotal U 174 -145 for Game

**thomorino** · 08-05-18, 02:25 PM

I would not buy points in WNBA games, the price is too high and variance is high as well.

**KVB** · 08-05-18, 02:27 PM

I agree, sometimes you see spots where the line is just out of where you think it should be and the game will fall, so tempting to buy points.

Probably not a good choice in the long haul, as with most sports, the vig is a bitch.

Good Luck today Rino

**thomorino** · 08-05-18, 02:39 PM

This Connecticut team has been horrible at holding leads, I'm tempted to hedge in live betting but I'm not going to.

2018 brought us a new Moroni that actually has good insight. Liking what I see in this thread

I agree buying points is a not good in the long run, but there's a couple of spots where it comes in handy. For example my worst scenario today is LV 85-87 CON. It's really high scoring right now but I know it will slow down in the 2nd half. I'm been on the WNBA for a minute and there's been plenty of times where I have lost by .5 so that's why once in awhile I don't mind buying the points.

**thomorino** · 08-05-18, 02:49 PM

I think losses are always more memorable than wins, but even if points have value in some cases the books will still overcharge you for them. The last minute of a WNBA game is totally unpredictable from a total standpoint, you don't know when teams will stop fouling and if the free throws will be made.

**KVB** · 08-05-18, 03:04 PM

The funny thing is when they miss layups, and then hit the buzzer beating tre.

Haven't watched much in a couple of weeks, but that always got me laughing.

A great example is yesterday's game Indiana @ New York. After 3 quarters game looked like it was heading towards overtime so the over 160 was still in play. Who thought New York would only score 2 points in the 4th? Liberty went cold. Books do over charge but I pick my spots, I don't tend to bet on teams on back to backs and if there's a better option in another sport, i'll take it. I think overall this season I have only taken about 20 bets in the WNBA this season, I also stay away from the last 2 games and playoffs.

Redskins/Chiefs Monday night game as well as Knicks Grizzlies last season (technically two seasons ago) will haunt me forever

**thomorino** · 08-05-18, 04:23 PM

Lol, what a typical day for what the last 2 weeks have been like. I bet the Rockies at -109 and they can't hold a 3 run lead in the 9th well my first WNBA play wins easily.

Mirrors on the ceiling,
The pink champagne on ice
And she said, 'we are all just prisoners here, of our own device'
And in the master's chambers,
They gathered for the feast
They stab it with their steely knives,
But they just can't kill the beast

Maybe a comeback is in the cards for you.

Just messing with Gold and his stab, since the lyric fit and it's a Cali team.

Lol, not that I care, Shocka trolling, oh well, break even day for me, split in WNBA and MLB, looks like the Lynx are going to miss the playoffs

**mikejamm** · 08-05-18, 07:58 PM

WNBA is a fuk'in shit show for betting. I personally believe the games are fuk'in rigged. You ever notice how these teams just miss covering the spread by a point or half point, or it's a total blowout? Prime examples from today, Vegas Aces vs the Conn Suns, Aces were +9 point dogs and have been play'in pretty good, get blown out by 21.

Mystics didn't cover against the Dallas Wings, spread -3 1/2, bitches only win by 2.
Sparks are at home play'in the Mercury right now, what do you bet these bitches don't cover the -7 1/2? Score is 73 - 69.

You need a fuk'in crystal ball to predict these bullshit games!

**thomorino** · 08-05-18, 08:03 PM

It wasn't that surprising the Ace got blown out, they had an 8 hour plane delay just a couple days ago and Connecticut is great at home. Basketball is a game of runs, the WNBA is no different.

Yeah, I hear you there Morino, didn't take into account the plane delay on the Aces game. Still, kinda like a crap shoot to figure out what side to be on for these games.

**thomorino** · 08-05-18, 11:01 PM

I've had success capping the WNBA using almost exclusively situational betting angles, taking teams off bad losses and fading them off big wins, I dont' analyze the matchup much at all. I also never look at the teams record, I just bet current form. I've hit fairly consistently around 60% in the WNBA this year and I have a futures wager on Seattle at +2000, very small bet, to win it all.

There's no way these games are rigged, you can't bet that much money on WNBA games, most books cap you at $500, if you tired to bet big the line would move dramatically, there isn't enough liquidity.

**thomorino** · 08-05-18, 11:08 PM

I'll be on Seattle first quarter, I expect the line to be -2.5 since the spread is 9. Bird has this team focused and I like backing teams the first game of a long road trip, The Liberty have a lot of injuries. I think Seattle will make sure they are focused with the early start.
