    Might have been one of the very best results for Vegas.

    Kind of unbelievable that Hideki just won and the broadcast can’t stop talking about Zal

    What a time to be alive

    I thought the “more rake better” would be the top billboard in Vegas history but apparently I was wrong.

    Okay, I got punched in the nose by both sports yesterday, but here we go again.

    Two NBA picks.

    Houston at Phoenix - Over 229
    Denver -4.5 at Golden State

    Ugh. The ol' Golden State 3rd quarter beatdown.

    I guess they still have it in 'em. 1-1 day, as the Houston over easily won.

    Well I hope you rode along today, smiflorida.

    Won the +149 Miami Marlins pick, won my first 2 NBA games, and the last NBA game (BOS/POR) is leaning toward a win in the 4th (live lined at 238.5 total, need 231 to win and 230 to tie).

    Bizarre game with Boston/Portland. Scoring was weak in the 4th and I thought I was going to end up getting screwed.

    113-112 with 8.5 seconds left, needing 230 to tie. Boston, with the ball and the 1-point lead, had wasted all the time they could, and Tatum took a tough 26-foot shot with a guy in his face at the last second, and HIT.

    Still 116-112 and needing Portland to score. Norman Powell sunk a 31-foot (!!) three with 5.4, and the total was 231. So obviously at that point I could relax and the victory was sealed. But I kept watching the game just for fun.

    Down 116-115, after an intentional foul, Marcus Smart missed BOTH free throws, but Portland couldn't score in the final 3.5, especially with no timeouts left, and that ended up being the final.

    Squeaked by with the narrow win, to have a perfect 3-0 NBA day and 1-0 +149 MLB day.

    Got two in the NBA

    Indiana at Houston - Over 233.5 (House out, McDermott & Turner questionable)
    Washington -2.5 at Sacramento (Holmes doubtful, Hield questionable)

    The Brooklyn game is worth watching, as 5 players are questionable, including Durant and Kyrie who have a major impact on the scoring. Steve Kerr has already hinted that both stars might be out (Kyrie has weird "personal issues", and Durant might get rest in this back-to-back), Aldridge is sick, and Griffin may get rest as well. Reserve Chiozza hurt his hand, and may not be available, which would be notable if so many other players are missing. Right now I'm not going to fire on it, but I might go under later.

    Another NBA

    Detroit vs. Clippers - Under 218.5

    Also, despite the loss of a point since I last posted, I've decided to gamble on the Philly under.

    Philadelphia vs. Brooklyn - Under 226.5

    Goes to show no matter how smart you think you are you are only a few seconds away from doing something stupid.

    A few years ago I took a day trip from Munich to Austria. It was an incredible day and Salzburg is a place I would recommend visiting to anyone. What I thought was funny was some local had these printed up on t shirts and refrigerator magnets, one I proudly display on mine.

    Guy I follow gave me a name for the Australian Open this weekend. I put it in for a few bucks. I just went to try and find an app for the Australian PGA so I could track and I couldn’t find the Australian open anywhere.


    Yeah asshole it’s the Austrian Open.

    RICHARD MCEVOY Is the play for what it’s worth.

    Good NBA day so far, not so good in MLB.

    Bricked both MLB games pretty badly, with 1 run scored total for me. Ugh.

    Lost first NBA game, too, with the Brooklyn under easily losing, despite the fact that only Kyrie of those questionable players suited up.

    However, the Indiana over won by a mile (even with the 233.5 line), the Clippers under threatened OT but managed to barely avoid it, easily covering. So that put me at 2-1 in NBA.

    Washington up by 10 at halftime, Denver up by 11 in the third. If both can hold, that'll be 4-1 in the NBA.

    I'm going to make some tweaks to my MLB strategy, which hopefully will fix my inconsistent results thus far. As you can see, NBA has been consistently good for past 4 weeks.

    Yup, 4-1 in NBA, with none being close, and now I'm 7-1 in the past 2 days in NBA.

    I'm not even that excited because I bricked MLB so badly today. Gotta fix that. I'm 1-4 in my last 5 picks, even though I'm only 0.6 units down in MLB overall. I'm going to work on this tonight and try to plug the holes in my strategy.

    I'm now 33-14 since March 21 in NBA.
