    I took Ball St too. Currently down 14-0 in the 2nd. Hopefully this doesn't get too out of hand so backdoor cover is in play.

    Do you think that as the NBA season has progressed past the start that the lines have become more accurate and narratives become easier for fellow bettors. Your advantage becomes diminished.

    I have noticed personally that I have good success with MLB early season - betting strong hate and opinion about certain teams and players. My estimation is proven out over time and the edge recedes as do my results.

    Being serious.
    Depends what strategy one is using to make picks.

    If your strategy is mainly based upon picking teams based upon early-season feel, then yes, it will get tougher as the books have more information to go on and more numbers to crunch.

    I'm skipping tonight's 1 NBA game.

    Sharp $ is on the Bulls and the under. Under is tempting but I just am going to skip it. Too many red flags.

    Anyone who wants to middle, Bovada is offering Chicago +7 -115 and other books are offering Lakers -5.5 or -5.

    thanks for playing your asses off last gave, ruining my pick, and making me believe you are better than what you have shown all year. Turds...
    I didn't watch a second of the game cause I had to work late, but I looked at box score and Ball St had 1st and goal at the 1 for the backdoor cover at the end of the game and threw an INT.

    Surreal. It seems something like this keeps happening over and over and over and over.

    Watching the Lakers-Bulls game. Early it is just a turnover fest back and forth. Unreal. This Bulls team couldn't miss a shot or 2 games straight, and now they can't even get a shot off without fumbling it away.

    Lakers have 10 turnovers in a little over 1 Q. And it isn't steals leading to fast break points. It is a lot of traveling and throwing the ball out of bounds and other stuff which kills the flow of the game. Very worried.

    Haltime. 20 turnovers between the 2 teams. Lakers offense is garbage. The few possessions they don't turn it over it is just passing around for 23 seconds and then take a desperation 3 at end of shot clock. Money straight into the trash.

    Refs completely rigging the game for the Lakers in 2nd half. Must have been a memo not to let Bulls run away with this.

    Refs giving lakers every tick tack foul and not calling super blatant fouls committed by them.

    On Draft Kings, I have reserved a spot for a contest and partially drafted my team but I cannot try to retrieve it when I got back to the lobby as they want me to re enter. Any help?

    Did you try the "upcoming" tab in the phone app to see if it is there?

    Your probably right. I spend about 1 hour a day on Draftings making lineups, and have edited countess lineups this way, but I am probably mistaken nonetheless.

    Another last-minute screw job for the underdog bet (these are getting common).

    Chicago was ahead of the Lakers the entire game, then shit the bed in the final minutes, and the Lakers ended up winning by 9.

    Under covered easily.

    Okay, so after that huge sweat from the Celtics last game, I decided to stay away from them this game even though they are -151.

    Opted for something a bit less shaky hopefully. Lets make it an even Gretzky.


    Money Line $72.04 $27.18

    Basketball - 514 Minnesota Timberwolves -265 for Game
