    Hey bruin, I hope the winning continues. Last 2 days have even mostly good with a huge blow up in the middle. Went I to yesterday up 6.9 units for the week. Had a very solid early and mid day and churned out a little plus money every couple plays and was up about ten units on day and seventeen for week when I pushed a little too much in late games. Ended going about 3-10 late and burning through about 23 units. My final total for yesterday was 16-20 and losing 16.25 units. I lost like I said about 23 units late. I was not actually stuck about ten units for week so today was critical. Luckily I had a strong consistent day even with the 3-4 typical bad beats of college and nba hoops. I started the early card 13-7 winning coincidentally almost the exact amount is lost yesterday, 16.25 units. Next set of games was not as good but still solid, 10-7 +9.3 units. The night to late games I purposely tread lightly and was prepared to stop if it looked like it was turning against me, I had a pretty decent slow grind winning session 12-9 for +6.8 units and am very happy with the final number

    Recap......

    into wednesday played 30 games overall and was +6.9 units for week
    wednesday 16-20 -16.25 for day and week now stands at -9.35
    thursday I lit the board uo a very strong 35-23 +32.35 units Now up 23.0 units on week.


    I do want to address one thing about how many games I play. Lots of people critique my style but it works for me. I am never ever going to bet over 5 units on a play. In the few hundred plays I have posted I have never posted a bet over five units because I don't bet that high per play. I would much rather bet 2 units or even 3 units on what I feel are some likely correlated possibilities. These are some of my records in individual games when I liked a side and a total for game and half, and sometimes even fired 2 more bets at halftime.

    Mich Illinois. 2-4
    fla missour. 5-1
    ncstate cuse. 3-1. (Only loss by hook)
    Oh st neb. 1-5
    tenn so car. 6-0
    duke. 2-2
    pitt nc. 3-0
    stjoes under. 0-2 ( lost total by one)
    stlouis. 2h bets 1-1
    NM boise. 1-1
    VA fla st. 5-1

    total record in games I bet multiple wagers. 29-18 +28.75 units
    total record in game I made single wagers 5-5 +3.6 units the reason for the profit is I went 0-2 on 1.5 units, 3-3 on 2.0 units and I went 3-0 in 2.5 unit plays .

    I listed every game I bet multiple plays, in every one of the games you see a total of six bets I bet a side and total for game and half and then fired the exact same Plays at HT. In games I bet all six possible options the Same I finished those bets 19-11

    Even more beneficial is every game I tweaked the formula I did well. For Instance duke game was similar I just bet duke and under game and half . However at half time i didn't like what i was seeing so I passed on betting my typical rebets. If I had rebet I would have lost both so it was the correct choice to pass even though that formula has been serving me well. In Pitt nc I bet pit game and Pitt half both for 3.5 units which is more then I bet in over 90% of my plays. At HT I felt NC had a little run In them and Pitt is known to let Up so I came back with NC, I ended up sweeping all three plays. The cuse game I bet just under game and half . At HT it was under by nine points but I felt it was going to turn and nc state would be tough so I went with nc and over reversing my total play. I win both 2h plays easy and turned a potential losing game into a 3-1 game.

    NBA I went 3-3 with five legit decisions and a horrific beat. I had under 201 and it went to OT at 87-87. Game went over with 4 seconds left when a team down 6 decided to take a layup, this after fouling and giving up 2 points at the line with eight seconds left.


    This was a long explanation as to why I am willing to take a bearing on juice to avoid the tradeoff of having 10-12 units on a single play get best by a meaningless three set the buzzer or layup while the teams are practically shaking hands. For 2 or 3 units those beats won't affect me, for 12 they would, and we all know in hoops those beats are going to happen

    3–1 to start the day, still disappointed taking my only loss by the hook. Game steamed all the way down to 204.5 so if I bet at tip I would have swept the card. Still happy with 3-1 and continued good results.

    Not buying having the intensity or discipline for this spot. All five bets 1.5 units, conservative today with week winding down.

    521 Georgia +7.5.
    Half Georgia +4
    Ky/ga over 134
    Ky/ga over 62

    564 tex southern -10.5.

    Good luck everyone, will try and post late games but may be playing hoops. Hope everyone is having a good day

    Short day yesterday, big week coming and wanted to lock in another good week. Went 6-4-1 losing another game by the hook, but 6-4-1 was still good for +2.35 units and now up 25.35 units for the week. No reason to go deep today. Next week is the biggest grind of year . Good luck everyone

    JJ I thought you were coming here to take me to a meeting last week. Now you are encouraging my gambling for next few months? Very confusing with the mixed messages JJ.

    Took a tough push in Miami first half. Gave up a layup with 1 second half for the push, but I deserved it Betting a bad number. It eas 2.5 this morning and I waited through sheer laziness and took -3 . Taking Miami again second half I think they pull away.

    Hit my celtics first half over with 3:58 left in first half so game looking good. Have been very conservative this weekend after a wild week, I always lock down if I have a big profit. Still went 10-5 this weekend so far with one pending that is significantly ahead so I have kept my momentum for sure. Betting clippers small as week winds down.

    clippers -7 half 1 unit
    clippers -11.5. 1 unit

    Thank you JJ, but let's not get ahead of ourselves.

    Lost my first bet of the day today, ky under half one. Then I pushed my 2nd bet of the day because as I mentioned a few posts up I was slow and lazy and got a bad number with Miami -3 first half. So when beverly made a basket with 2 seconds left he cut miami lead to 3 and it was a push. However that was all the bad news I would endure.
    i won my last 7 plays to end day 7-1-1 and end weekend 13-5-2. I did lower my bets because I always look to lock down when up a big number so today's 7-1 gave me a 7.35 unit win . The week ended +32.7 units .

    The recap for the two weeks is really nuts, am going to post it later. I bet 295 plays, for a total of 576 units. Average bet about 2 units and I won about 40.

    Thank you bruin nice of you to say. 13-5 is a nice way to close weekend for sure. Ended up 15-5 overall on posted plays cause I tailed you in your threads on two in NHL that both won. I was conservative betting small this weekend due to exhaustion and the desire to guarantee a nice week. It's a shame because I made almost all 1 unit bets this weekend and won exactly 75%.

    In two wild weeks I bet 294 (that is posted I actually bet 331 plays) of my own plays for an average of 1.88 units At -10 juice, occasionally -15 juice. I don't even get very good lines because I only have 2 books. On the 294 plays i profited 40.7 units. I only made 23 bets of 3.5 or 4.0 units and a single bet of 4.5 units. In those 24 larger bets I went 13-11 and won a very modest 3.45 units. I also made 25 3 unit bets as well but didn't break them down yet, I am too tired. So basically I won almost 40 units on 245 bets of 1-2.5 units. When you factor in the juice on the 553 units wagered it was a very very strong win rate these two weeks. Crazy week ahead of course. This is the craziest month every year . Keep up the good work in the NHL
