Close the whole way with Pepperdine. Hopefully they can take it and give me a 3-2 day. They need to win by 3, though.

Had a 58-50 lead, then collapsed
:fail
Really only fire basketball occasionally on non football days. Funny story this guy on sports talk will throw out what he likes in college basketball. So one day last week he talked about 7 games he liked.
So for the hell of it bet 50.00 on each game, Fucker went 1 for 7 .So I thought to myself next time I hear him picking games he likes I will fade, Bet the other team
So Monday I am listening he picks 7 college games, If I remember right was only 7 college games that day. So I fire 50 dollar against every team he picked.
He went 6-1 WTF. That’s my degenerate gambling story for the week.
haha - def not doing a good job of fitting in. special thanks to the gambling gods - I'm nothing without them! dont fret - the true pathetic degenerate mush that I am will shine through and all will welcome me with open arms & empty wallets!!
PSA - NCAAB is my least favorite sport to wager on!! I don't know if the team was at an orgy an hour before tipoff, doing the elephant walk with their frat brothers or just don't give two fucks to play hard that day!!
THESE PLAYS ARE NOT ADVICE - just what I thought was playable!

I recognize the intelligence and wit. The humility reveals experience.
The thread is now yours. It is your canvass. No pressure. I’m not profitable this year. Still not sure why. I’m going to wander far from the village, find a cave and wait to die.
I like the Brown pick tyvm. I have GA today and will likely find the strength to stay away from basketball, however. GA has great NHL picks tho.
San was kinda disappointed you wouldn't sit next to me at GA today, but after some reflection it made me realize that we have to ride the hot hand. Jealously will get us nowhere in this game. Could you believe Rod (real name protected) has lost profit due to the NBA? And man could he talk....he went on for almost an hour straight.
Oilers -1.5 -120
Philly +115
Vancouver -120
Starting in a few:
Cornell +14.5 -105 at Miami Florida
Villanova -14.5 -108 vs Pennsylvania
The Pacers, who already overrated, have a bunch of players not feeling very good today.
At PG, Haliburton is likely out, and McConnell may not play either.
Jalen Smith has a hurting knee, and Myles Turner may not play either due to his hamstring.
Minnesota -5 vs Indiana
Time for a half/half bet. These are "half" picks, meaning I am placing half a unit on each of these on the same side in the same game, making it a bit smoother, variance-wise.
NCAAB
Dayton +175 at Virginia Tech - FIRST HALF ONLY
Dayton +255 at Virginia Tech (entire game)
Timberwovles looking great, up 35-16.
Unfortunately my 3 NCAA bets are looking questionable.
The Dayton one has been a disaster and will very likely lose (especially the 1H bet). They're down 18 with 3 min left in 1H. Sad!
Villanova got off to a bad start, but got ahead of Penn by 15 in the early 2H. However, now it's an 8-point game with 8:36 left. They need to cover 15.
On the opposite end (my +14.5 dog), Miami got way ahead of Cornell, but Cornell has come back to make it semi-close, also trailing by 8 with 6:02 left.
So those other two could go either way, though Cornell looks more likely to cover than Villanova.
Would be nice if I can hit both of those and the T-Wolves keep up the beatdown, to go 3-1.
I have picked and bet only a few NBA picks this year, Both was laying points with Boston, Both winner’s for small bet. Today is the day Boston goes down. Pick suns - 1.5 over Boston
lol my canvas - that sounds a bit intimidating. I see Todd and others have new threads/multiple threads. How do I create a new blank thread where I am not replying to my original post everytime? The only two options I see avail are "reply to this thread" and/or "comment" - How do I get an empty post? Sorry - last question
Didn't see Cornell losing if they scored 105, but here we are.
Hell of an effort though.
Villanova couldn't get ahead enough and only won't by 11, so I lost that pick, likely sending me to 1-2 in NCAAB.
Pacers somehow shot off much of their lead. Gonna be a sweat.
Extremely weird game involving the Wolves/Pacers.
First Minnesota took like a 20 point lead and it looked like a blowout. Keep in mind that most of the players I expected to sit did not, so this negated the reasoning for my pick (I expected maybe 1 or 2 would play, but not all but one).
Anyway, then in the 2nd and 3rd, Minnesota played like shit, and the 20 point lead evaporated into a 90-83 deficit in the late 3rd. Then the Wolves pulled into a tie to end the 3rd, and I had hope. However, they couldn't ever pull away. They got ahead 111-104, with 3 minutes left, but then shot it off very quickly, and it was tied 115-115 with 50s left. At this point I was rooting for OT.
Then Hield fouled Goebert, who made 2 FT. Now 117-115. Then Hield missed a layup with 11s left, and they had to foul again. Edwards made both. I wasn't sure how I was going to get to 6 points though, as it was 119-115 and Pacers had the ball. I was hoping they'd miss, foul, and miss again. Instead, with 8s left, Pacers made a boneheaded TO, and Goebert dunked it. 121-115, and the Pacers gave up, so I barely covered.
2-2 day overall, going 1-0 in NBA and 1-2 in NCAAB.
Isn’t the raiders and Cincy teaser like finding money? Cincy pk, raiders-1/2

tyvm, hnd
Fired on raiders -6.5. Most NFL teams I have seen play all year and pick according to how teams have looked lately, how they match up this week etc
Raiders/ Rams are 2 of the few teams I haven’t seen much this year. So I base my pick on the fact raiders have been winning, Rams have not. Lol
What kept me from betting pretty big on raiders is last weeks game rams/Seattle game. I thought Seattle would cover easy, Didn’t happen took Seattle till last drive to take the lead and not cover the 7 point line, Luckily I had teased Seattle-1 so they didn’t F**k me
So rams played better then I thought they would or Seattle just sucks
A bit late to the party, but I'm firing on the total on tonight's Raiders game.
Raiders at Rams - Under 41.5
A look ahead to a parlay idea for tomorrow.
+177
Two best teams in NHL.
Bruins are playing the punk ass Coyotes @ home. The Coyotes have been on a never ending road trip that bordered on criminal. There is a handicapping rule in the NHL about fading a team on the first home game after a road trip. The home rink in Phoenix is a college rink. I’m not trying to sell you so much as sharing the lulz.
Devils are great. Islanders are not bums but Devils are so deep, so young and so talented their 21-4-1 record is no accident. Some teams might coast on a given night but the Devils have been bad for so long and the kids are still so young that I never address load management/loafing.
If you are inclined to wager either of these teams or the parlay I suggest you do it now cause it’s going stratospheric.
Raiders letting rams hang around, Not good
This Carr is still a bum. Had several chance’s to pull away
Unreal how bad the fucking raider’s played this game, 16-3 with 4 minutes or so left in the game and lose outright. Carr is awful
How do we have two consecutive 16-3 games which were blown in the late 4th quarter? Pretty amazing.
The problem is that both the Raiders and the Saints suck big time. The Saints are well known to suck, but some delusional people actually thought the Raiders might squeak into the playoffs. What people are missing is that the Raiders won 2 against the crap Broncos, one against the awful Texans, and one against the overrated and choking Chargers. The only halfway decent team they beat was the Seahawks, and they're inconsistent.
The Raiders are a shit team and that's why I stayed away from betting a side on this match of two failteams.
My under hit, so that's all I cared about here.
Dolphins -3 @ Chargers
Pats @ Cardinals under 43.5
Jets +9.5 @ Bills
Chiefs @ Broncos under 43
Jaguars @ Titans under 41.5
Vikings ML @ Lions
Yes, all I have been hearing is how the raiders are gonna make the playoffs. What sucks is I haven’t really watched these 2 teams all year. Rarely have them on a ticket on Sundays.
Then line dropped so I fired LV again which put me having more money on this game then a normal Thursday trash game.
Even had a parlay with the clippers +7 which had won already
Normal Thursday trash game I don’t really like will bet 300 or so. Checked my pending bets as the last drive was happening and had 1k invested in the trash raiders
Nice call on the under
Had someone IRL asked how much is a unit to you? Lol
College Basketball = min bet 50-100 max
NBA = min 100-500 max
College football/NFL min=300-max whole account is at risk any given game
So I don’t know what a unit is, lol
2 game parlay $9 to win $8.68 (-104)
Netherlands vs Argentina Over 1.5 (-220)
Brazil -285
A lot of handicappers fuck around with "units" in order to inflate their record. This is because a unit doesn't mean anything unless you stay consistent with it. For example, if I start out the season losing 10 games in a row, claiming each pick is 1 unit, I'm 0-10 and down 10 units. If I want to be a piece of shit scamdicapper, I can say that game #11 is 10 units, and this way if I win, I'm back even. And if I lose, I can say the next game is 20 units, and I can keep raising "units" until I get even or ahead. This works because these guys aren't really betting at those rates (or betting at all), so they can just keep raising the stakes for unlimited fictitious units.
I use units as a simple way to track what my results are, because all lines aren't -110. So If I bet a +163 and it wins, and I bet a -110 and it loses, I'm 1-1, but I'm actually up money (0.63 units). All of my bets are always the same amount of money, and all my picks are for 1 unit, so my record is honest.
Speaking of records, here is my honest record so far in the 4 sports I'm currently betting:
NFL: 41-17-1, +24.88 units
NCAA Football: 46-38-1, +8.16 units
NCAA Basketball: 27-37-1, -10.57 units
NBA: 28-36-2, -9.40 units
As you can see, I'm killing it in football (+33.04 units) and getting stomped in basketball (-18.73 units).
Here are two injury-based NBA picks. These can be unpredictable, so watch out.
Utah has Markkanen out, and is also missing Sexton. Cleveland will be without Mitchell.
Sacramento +142 at Cleveland
Minnesota -110 at Utah
These can't ever be easy.
Sac blew out to a 34-20 lead, and now is tied 49-49 as 1H winds down. Not good. Maybe the Kings regroup at the half.
