Possible halftime wager on Washington. Watching closely. Down by 17 right now in the 1st.

Is bovada really this nitty to not put up a line on that game because of Rubios status not being in stone? Literally every other book on planet earth has a line up.

[big dick]

Here are some NBA picks:

Golden State -8.5 at Phoenix - I have watched Phoenix this year. They suck against good teams. None of their 7 wins are against teams over .500.

Sacramento vs. Minnesota - Under 218 - Public loves the over because Sac has a fast pace and has broken 120 in the last two games in regulation. Minnesota has played good defense in the past 5 games, now allowing over 101 points in any of those contests, despite only winning 3 of 5. Cousins also may not play.

Philadelphia +10.5 at Houston - Houston has looked awful this year, and is the most disappointing team in the NBA. A coaching change has not helped. Philly has come close to getting their first win in their past two contests. They might actually do it today, so if you're feeling adventurous, go with the moneyline. I think they will at least cover, though.

Philly/Houston - Under 197 - Both of these teams cannot score well. Most of Houston's games have seen them score under 100, and Philly is averaging just 89 points per game. 6 of Philly's past 8 games have seen them score 88 or fewer, and they have not broken 95 points in that entire span.

Good luck.

I can only bet 1 of these (Golden State) at the moment, as the rest are off the board at Bovada.

I am 12-9 coming into today, with a 2-game losing streak at the moment.

Why are you using only bovada? You should deposit on 5 dimes and use bovada for the lines that huge public money is on cus they wreck the fish with their shitty lines

[Brittney Griner's Clit]

He tried and he ran into depositing and other issues. Poor dude has explained it countless times.

I wasn't comfortable with various aspects of 5Dimes, and the other big one (I forget the name now) wouldn't let me have an account because my phone number didn't verify right, or some other BS like that.

[Dan Druff]

So the Philly under is a disaster and is going to lose by a mile.

Philly +10.5 isn't looking great but is in the running.

The annoying thing was that I had decided earlier to bet on Orlando, but completely forgot about it (also forgot to post it here).

That one easily won.

Just did a first half of Min/Sac Under 110.5 in lieu of the whole game bet. I like that better than my earlier-posted Min/Sac Under 218 (which I never ended up betting) because this game is expected to be close, so a first half bet both dodges overtime and the fouling BS that occurs at the end of the 4th -- both of which are bad for under bets.

[Dan Druff]

Well Philly is out strong in the 4th. One thing that sucks balls about Bovada is that they don't give you moneylines on big dogs/big favorites. So I would have done some Philly ML today +600 but couldn't. Right now Philly is winning by 1 in the 4th.

Maybe I do have to work harder at getting on a "real" book.

[big dick]

You 100% def have to get at least 1 more book. Bodog is only good opposite public betting, their lines are ridiculous. No local books?

[Dan Druff]

Yeah this is pissing me off. You can see I'm not just past-posting here. I said earlier today that I liked the Philly ML.

Now they are up by 5. So my +10.5 is going to cover for sure (good), but I could have had +600 on the ML, too.

So any reasonable options which pay well, aside from 5Dimes (questionable owner, not customer service oriented at all) or Heritage Sports (won't let me have an account)?

[Dan Druff]

I wouldn't know where to begin to find a local book around here.

But if anyone has a good suggestion for a book that isn't 5Dimes or Heritage, let me know.

[Dan Druff]

Glad I went with Golden State, though. They're up by 17 already. Phoenix just sucks balls against teams over .500. 0 wins against winning teams this year, and they are up against the best team in the NBA, and maybe of all time.

You've spent 1/2 your life in a casino but can't find a local book? I've got 4 various guys and I live outside a city of 70,000......

Really glad I took the OVER on this Baylor game the other day....on a day when its a freaking monsoon and neither passing team can pass. #failboat

GS has been lights out for 3 pters.

The lol part is they missed 9 free throws in the first half (6/15) but made 15/20 3 pters

[Dan Druff]

Well, my first first half bet (Sac/Min Under 110.5) was a success, and won by 10.5.

Philly +10.5 won easily, and the moneyline would have barely lost (good thing I couldn't bet it).

Philly under lost by 32. LOL

Golden State, crushing by 18 at halftime, is now having a poor 3rd and my -8.5 is in jeopardy. If it covers, I go 3-1 today and move to 15-10 in my first 25.

Edit: Never mind, back up by 18 for GS.

[simpdog]

Thompson has 4 fouls, Barnes hurt his ankle and now bogut hurt his finger.

Good news GS is deep.

AWESOME!!!!

The game just went into Overtime!!!




I just need 46 points scored and Im good.....

[Daly]

Wow. Just Wow. One of my books is completely fucking me over. They no actioned my Miller first TD bet from last night because the window said "first packers TD" and not "first bears TD". Even though all the players were bears players and they presumably scooped all the other bets made they no actioned my $2,600 winner.

Nendless to say I'm fucking bullshit right now.
