SPECIAL LINE ALERT: Cavs +3.5 vs Celtics, an SBR_John Special

[suicidekings]

oh come on. It was a good bet. Just because it lost doesn't mean everyone who bet it is a sucker.

It was a very suspicious bet at minimum. At the time, the available line was CLE +1.5 (-110). A fair price for CLE +3.5 would be (-154) using the half point calculator, but he was offering it at (+100)... Too good to be true = sucker bet. But only for points...

This thread actually made me consider doubling my wager on the Celts to x20, but I decided against it at the last minute.

U sure about that him posting this made me put another 5 dimes on the spread when I already had 5 dimes on boston ML and 2 dimes on the series

SBR_John gave most of us the gift of the century.....CELTICS ML

Am I glad I did not see this thread XD

Well i certainly am a HAPPY CAPPER having taken the Celtics ML and the under......i could NOT believe the # of people & actually WHO was taking this bet.
...this describes it for me..LOL!!!

If someone offers me two points better than the market with no juice, I'm going to take it 95% of the time.

SBR John is on a hot streak, but since I doubt he has inside information, these plays have value.

If you really are that nervous, you can try for a middle.

I don't regret betting it and I think it was a good bet to take, even though it did lose this time.

I will continue to bet on these.

I took Celtics series +850
Tiger top 3 +350
Cavs +3.5
and probably another one or two specials

I do not play hoops, but even I know that the Cav's have one of the worst coaches in the business. LeBron did another choke job, with 9 turnovers. After Game 5, could anyone actually think that the Cav's would win game 6, or cover?

Nickaay!

[paco]

Why was Nicky refunded his points?

[SBR Lou]

Why was Nicky refunded his points?

He didn't post in the thread to confirm his selection, anyone that didn't follow the steps listed below was refunded as they could've posted the points after the game started. None of those players had action either way as was listed below.

If you do not post points in this thread and make a post by tipoff, you will not have action.

Shit, why'd i have to post something

he got the lucky end.
