I went ahead and put the Pelicans down +3.5.

Looking at some Ivy League games now, but I haven't followed much of that conference.

Same here.


Oakland 1H -227
Columbia 1H +2
Timberwolves -4
Hawks -122
Harvard 1H -149

Detroit U seems like a threat to win straight up. Slim pickings from home dogs tonight in college. Detroit beat Oakland the first game in Oakland.

this looks like one that nugget would be all over Det +7.5

16-11-1

Pistons +4.5

Let's ride

Oakland -7.5

Taking a lot of L's after going 6-0 last night

Hit both straight bets and threw Miami and GS in a parlay with them so it was a good night.

I bet hockey because I was losing my arse off and it worked All I do is bet moneylines on hockey but I've been measuring some of these teams on Totals lately.

For any sport I generally go to Covers website and Odd Sharks to gauge public consensus on Picks then begin running my numbers. I'll also go on Vegas insider and watch for Sharps moving lines against or with public consensus. Everyone has their methods. If you notice I go with favorites a lot of the time but that's only if the sharps are leaning that way too. If they buck public then I will follow with them a lot of the time.

One crazy situation I was stuck in was the Super Bowl. I really loved Atlanta because the Sharps would not let the -3 Pats Spread move to -3.5 even though the public was pounding the Pats. Vegas wouldn't let the Spread go up because too much Sharp money was on Atlanta. The opposite happened on the Total Points, most the week we were at 58 then the sharps bet the Under hard when they saw it hit 59.5. On my website the Under got down to 56.5!!!

My calculus left me only one option.
4 Bets all Teases (Line was -3 Pats 57 when I bet)

Atlanta +12
Over 51

Atlanta +12
Under 63

NE +3
Over 51

NE +3
Under 63

Pats win by 6 and total points were 62. Everything Hit

That was me but I stayed away from Monmouth.

Haven't liked a side more than Oregon on Saturday in a long time.

Saturday parlay of Kentucky, Kansas, Oregon, Villanova, Gonzaga and Arkansas. It's 40 or 45 to 1 depending on where you bet. You get 4 top 5 teams giving up less than 5 points, Kentucky only giving up 7 against a team coming off 4 OTs, and a decent Arkansas team only giving 5 to garbage LSU. LSU is getting love for only losing to KY by 7 after KY stopped playing. Will probably play one with KY 1h if it's at 3.5 and one full game. Straight bets on the other 5 with 2U on Oregon and maybe Gonzaga.

Yes they're all on the road but I like talent to win out.

UNC Greensboro also a play against Western Carolina. Only 7.5 or 8 and Carolina can't keep it close against any decent team.

UT Martin also...damn I like a lot of games today.

Georgia State, Central Michigan, Eastern Washington, Rice...
