TheAntidote's Soccer Thread

Adding a play:

PSV Eindoven/Sampdoria O 2.5

Sampdoria has been very good on offense this year, and has also given up many goals this year as well. All of PSV's domestic games this year have had at least 4 goals in them, with PSV scoring 17 goals in 5 games. Over should hit.

It's a bit too late but don't forget Italian teams are concentraitng on defence while playing away

Yes, you're right. I knew that and I still played the game. This is exactly the reason I rarely bet on Italian teams. Can't win 'em all, I suppose.

[TheAntidote]

Went 1.5-2-.5 on the day in soccer. Not great, and down a little over a unit. Will have some American sports plays later.

[TheAntidote]

MLB:

Minnesota Twins ML
Giants/Dodgers U 6.5

Twins are 12-4 in last 16 games against lefties. Pavano has been pitching solid for them lately as well. Twins ML is the play I feel best about tonight.

College Football:

Cincinatti/North Carolina St O 54

Two teams with underrated pass offenses and bad pass defenses. Thinking this will be a shootout.

[hedgejob]

Minny Twins, take that to the bank.

LOL didn't know you were on them til after I posted.

[TheAntidote]

You'd be surprised, Hedge, I actually went 7-1 in MLB the past 2 days. I figured you of all people would be shocked.

[phenomenon]

hope today 9-1 brotha
coz I am on them too
goodluck for us

[TheAntidote]

Thanks Phenom, hope we do well. Not a great MLB card today, so only the two plays.

[phenomenon]

it enough brotha I think
win even one match is good for me today

[TheAntidote]

Wow, this football game is ridiculous. Neither offenses are very good, and Cincinatti pretty much just sucks. It's the 2nd quarter and I think there has been 6 fumbles already! And about 25 penalties! Clearly not the teams I thought they were.

Minny Twins, take that to the bank.

[TheAntidote]

We were definitely both right on that one. Cheers sir.

Unfortunately I was wrong on the my other MLB pick, and my College Football pick was bad. Strangely enough on the CF pick, I thought there would be more TDs - one more would have done the trick - but even if the FG that was missed, the extra point that was missed, and both 2-pt conversions were just done correctly, I would have at least pushed. I know that sounds like a stretch, but those occurrences are actually standard in American football. Strange, but it happens!

I've always felt my strongest sports are soccer and NFL - so while I've had an average week of soccer and very good week of MLB, I'm really looking forward to NFL this weekend. I will definitely do some serious research on it!

[TheAntidote]

To keep everything accurate, I was down about 2.5 units on the day. Not great, but I'm still up about 9-11 units on the week, so I'll take today's small loss. Every good streak ends, right? Well, today it ended, and the next great streak starts tomorrow!

[TheAntidote]

Let's start today with a couple winners:

IFK Norrkoping -0.5
Gaz Metan Medias/CFR Cluj O 2.25

These are Mihaita's plays. I'm always excited when he's got a Scandinavian play - those seem to hit at a 90% clip.

[TheAntidote]

Won the Romanian game - tailing on the other Swedish play: IFK Norrkoping/Landskrona O 2.75

[phenomenon]

I am on them too
these two teams are on my parlay

[TheAntidote]

Yikes - lucky to get the half win on the Over. Certainly wasn't Norrkoping's day. I'll take the result though.

Gonna have to play Mihaita's other play today:

Frankfurt/Freiburg O 2.75

Let's get some cash

[TheAntidote]

Not a great day: 1.5-2-.5 Lost about one unit. Should have some night game plays later in the day.

[mihaita666]

sorry for the 2 wrong tips today dude. Tomorrow should be 3-0...i am very confident

[TheAntidote]

sorry for the 2 wrong tips today dude. Tomorrow should be 3-0...i am very confident

No problem dude - God knows I've had my share of bad days. We'll turn it all around tomorrow.

[mihaita666]

tomorrow is a crucial day for my morale. I need to go at least 2-1 tomorrow.

[TheAntidote]

MLB plays tonight:

Colorado Rockies ML (-131)
Texas Rangers ML (-105)
Minnesota Twins ML

I most likely will have more too. Just wanted to post these quick.

[TheAntidote]

Adding:

Atlanta Braves ML

[TheAntidote]

California -3

[Tommy_de1st]

[TheAntidote]

Tonight's going so-so. Tomorrow I will be playing this in College Football:

Houston -4

[TheAntidote]

Timisoara/Sportul Studentesc O 2.5
Stuttgart -.75

[hitman2010]

[mihaita666]

[Tommy_de1st]

What do you mean so-so?
Im too lazy to check , how did you do?

I went 2-2 on MLB and lost my College Football play. That College Football game was a total trap, and I should have known better. Thankfully I tailed your Mexican play, so I was down just slightly on the night.

[TheAntidote]

I love waking up and finding out I've started the day with a winner. Thanks to Mihaita for the Stuttgart pick!

[hedgejob]

Mississippi St +8, take it to the bank.

[TheAntidote]

Mississippi St +8, take it to the bank.

I'm actually going to play Mississippi St/LSU O 44.5 in that game, but hopefully we both win on that. The line I see right now is Mississippi St +7, so you have a favorable line for sure. Good luck.

Also going to play:

ECU +21
Air Force +17

This week I do NOT recommend tailing my College Football plays as some of these lines have had some of the strangest movement. I'm going to play these the same as I would otherwise, but I feel like a few of them (especially the Houson line I posted earlier) could be traps.
