Not everyone is a line junkie and knows how lines will move so if you like the spot you bet it when you can. What if it moved to -180, then he's a genius? Are you saying you are smarter than everyone and can predict line movement? You must be pretty rich to have such an obnoxious opinion on how people should gamble.
    I made a lot of money doing it. But yes if you cant predict line movements, especially in baseball then you shouldnt be betting it. EVERY baseball line moves. Every single one. Therefore predicting what the 'best' number will be is extremely important. Like I said if you cant get within a few cents or a nickle of the 'best' odds then you have to look at your approach.

    If you take 2 guys who bet the same side of every baseball game and one pays an average of -135 and the other pays an average of -142 who is going to make the most or lose the least amount of money at the end of the year? Its common sense.

    While I dont want to ver play the whole getting the best odds angle or getting on the right side of a move is key. This game shows the move was 'wrong' it doesnt mean getting the best odds/price for your side isnt important.

    baseball is as fundamental a betting approach as you will ever find. You have a winner and a loser, no ties, and you have a fixed set of odds based on each side. No ties to worry about, no spread (unless you bet RLs). All you need to do is pick a winner and get a good price. he got HALF of it right, the more important half but still only partially right. Seriously this game to me was as obvious as it got, thats why I commented.

    Check my posting history I dont comment on any opinions on games ever. Sort of coincidental how I happened to comment on this one and make the final statement I made and it was 'mysteriously' correct.

          I don't get pissed off.

            with 9 games to go and no kobe they still might not make it. But should squeek out a 6 or 7 seed I suppose.

            But that is still irrelevant as theyre as close to an ATM as you can get in the ATS department.

            regardless of their W/L record in the standings their ATS record, the one that matters to guys who BET money is 19-39. So while they have lucked out a few wins to fool people like you with some over inflated record, they have made guys who know better a ton of money by betting against them this year.

            So in the grand scheme I was fairly correct in my assumption the lakers would suck this year. So while guys who try and make some point look at that guys who want to make money look at the actual meaningful results. lakers are the best bet against team in the past who knows how long.

            Even against generic closers theyre only 22-36. So any fool could not even line shop and be 62% betting against them this season.

                  I actually said they were a borderline lottery team that would be fighting it out for the 8 seed, But I also said they could be as high as a 6 seed if they got lucky. So I was actually pretty spot on. The only reason people think I was definitive about them is because they didnt read everything I wrote or took stuff out of context and used it as some sort of 'proof'. lakers will end up winning 2, maybe 3 games more than I thought they would. I figured they would be 35-31 at the very best. They should end up 37-29 or 38-28. I wouldnt say I was that far off. Most guys had them with 40+ wins and wins that actually meant something.

                  Its semantics I suppose but I would say I surely made more money betting against the lakers (and ON them in some cases) than guys here who thought they were actually any good.

                  This is a GAMBLING forum so ATS record has everything to do with it. Just like getting the best odds in a baseball game.

                  This place is almost as bad as Covers in regard to the general betting/gambling IQ of its posters, which is extremely poor. Only thing Covers has is more idiots posting over there than this place has.
