Of course it looks like I ran very bad with COVID currently affecting the teams I took WAY more than the ones I faded. From what I can tell the NBA wants these games to go, even if Nets and Atl have mostly G leaguers.
Both these bets looking very -EV right now.
There is absolutely no chance regardless of health Xmas games get cancelled. I understand these to be tv contracts that are separately negotiated.
I completely forgot we bet Xmas until I saw your post. I wouldn’t touch NBA with your money these days.
Cavs streak ends tonight?
Did you take Rams last night? I have a confession to make but I hinted at my hypocrisy in a previous post. I had done too much previous work on Eagles WFT on the cancelled bets to walk away.
3 team teaser
Football - 340 Philadelphia Eagles -3½ for Game
W
Football - 338 Los Angeles Rams -1 for Game
W
Football - 226 Army -½ for Game
Army is taking 90%+ of the money. I’m getting creeped out like the recent Bucs/Brady goose egg that took 90%+ $. Thinking of hedging. Every time I hedge I’m wrong and it’s wasted money. I have always admitted it’s my biggest leak. The replacement Mizzi QB is perfectly fine. The Army kids have no futures so this game is more important when you consider shitty bowl game motivation.
I faded Boston College and took the points cause I’m a hater. They finally built a legit baseball field. D1 school using the football field as a right field wall. They are so embarrassing.
