    Yea so when game line becomes pretty effecient after all the betting, how is there a lot
    value left for second half action if it's just a "derivative"? All it does is call for more more variance, and less edge. Hope you can tell me why I bought this cause I can't quite figure it out yet

    As a 2nd half bettor I want a perfectly efficient closing game line. 2h lines are basically set as a function of game spread/total and half score and the actuality is it's more complicated than that (is a big dog winning because they should be or are they just 8/8 from 3's?) . the edges are definitely bigger than you'll find pre-game.

    Though I think the idea of touting 2h's is ridiculous.

    Won a Georgetown basketball under in 2003 that went into double overtime. Guess that constitutes a good bet and not luck

    Do you use the phrase "sucks dick" in the "real world", or just on gambling forums? I ask because I don't think I've heard someone over the age of 16 use that phrase in like 20+ years.

    Depends on who I'm with, but generally delegated to horrid RAS picks. But not hesitant to use it if needed. Only forum I'm on (or have ever been on), is this one.

    Ohio state under.... Plays are getting horrendous again

    Settle down, the play lost by a bucket. I can't believe Ed didn't know they would hit three 3s in the first 70 seconds of the 2nd half! He's lost his edge.

    This probably borders on unprofessional but I felt the need to make this clear...

    If it were up to me, Golfer would be banned permanently. I find his rants to be a blight on BT. It's nothing personal. I've joked with him in recent weeks, I've given him numerous warnings, I've explained that healthy criticism is welcome, etc. After all that, I believe he has demonstrated that he is incapable of changing his ways and because of that feel BT would be better off with out him.

    Naturally everyone is entitled to their own opinion; that's mine.

    Sorry Goats. I was out of line again, I know. Just got mad about the game. Hasn't happened in a while but it did last night.

    While I appreciate the apology, I hope you can understand that at some point I can't help but feel enough is enough.

    I don't disagree with you at all.

    Goats- can you auto ban me every day after 7:00pm ct during RAS basketball, then unban me the next morning? Do y'all have the capability of programming that in on your settings?

    Obviously, this shouldn't be needed, I should be able to not post stupid, irrational, and negative comments. Just need to get through March then we have several months off.

    I'm not even going to ask if that's possible (which I highly doubt); we're not babysitters. I try not to be judgmental of anyone, we all have faults, but seriously, you're an adult. If you truly can't control yourself you should be banned permanently. I encourage you to work on your issues in whatever manner you see fit.

    Try this: bet plays, don't sweat them. Check how you did in the morning. Will make life much more enjoyable.

    Solid advice. With some exceptions of course, I've been doing that for a few years now.

    ive adopted this for Saturday's where there are just too many plays/games and I can piss the whole day away following the tracker. Certainly makes me more productive and keeps me in a better mood.

    For a 2nd half bettor it is rather impractical to sit out the game tracker,heh. However, I wish I knew how to autobet Kash 2h without having to do a damn thing.

    I've been using RAS for 3 seasons now, but am new to this message board. Idk if this is an appropriate question or not, but I have a certain "out" that seems to be posting 2H lines slower than my other two. The other two limit me to $500 a play. I was wondering if you were able to give some info on good outs to use for RAS plays. If not, I completely understand. As I said prior I am new to the board, and this is one of my first posts. I really enjoy this site and hope to be a contributing member in the future.

    Jman, if you really understood, you wouldn't ask that question.

    The way I read this thread
    I have been married to my lovely wife 36 years
    Back when we were dating, I heard my mother coming upstairs to my room; very, very, strict
    I covered my wife rapidly with sheets and spreads
    Worked

    If you want the polite version... People are unlikely to share how/where they can get down on RAS plays b/c it would negatively impact their own betting.

    hrwager.ag is easy to get plays down. they'll eventually shut you off though.

    I understand. Thanks for the help guys. Like I said, I am new to the message board so I understand the negative impact it could have on others.
