  • Hang in there Jets. It’s been a rough year for underdog players.
  • There you go, nice finish. You deserved to cap things off with that good beat Aggie cover given all of the line value you amassed, including that game.
  • Very impressive line value. You deserve way better than what has happened so far.
  • https://www.bettingtalk.com/forum/discussion/comment/934729#Comment_934729 For sure, OT games can turn short dog and unders from 2-0 to 0-2 in a matter of minutes. Glad you at least held onto to the side winner.
  • It’s been way longer than 24 hours. I think it might have been since Thursday, for sure since Friday. Is there risk of losing funds? Always is with offshores, but I’d say it’s low with a book that renowned. Of course, I thought the same of WSEX many…
  • Nice finish Jets. How did the regular season end up for you? Looks like you did pretty well with that ultra-selective strategy.
  • Yanks are -245 in the first game, so maybe you mean the second game
  • Sorry Stack, but if I understand correctly, I side with them. There is a division winner and there are typically no number of games played constraints put on those futures, so as long as the NBA doesn’t say otherwise, it should be considered officia…
  • I love 5dimes, but that’s crazy. I really thought they had some sort of minimum games played requirement on any win totals. However, I checked the copy that I made of all of their NBA futures lines and they did not specify a minimum. It’s a bit chea…
  • https://www.bettingtalk.com/forum/discussion/comment/933537#Comment_933537 In this very odd season, I'd expect the trend from yesterday to be the way to go, assuming favorites continue to get bet up as they have so far.
  • I just re-watched that game at 2-2 in the third, and although Mugu helped her out a bit on a couple of points, Kenin played five absolutely perfect points. All five ended in winners. Just to win 5 points in a row is fairly unlikely, but to do it wit…
  • True in the second set, but not in the third. Mugu was up 40-0 at 2-2 on Kenin's serve in the 3rd set. Kenin played a great game from that point, but Mugu had chances that she didn't take. Then Mugu was up 40-15 on her serve and gave the game away w…
  • You guys were right on Kenin. I'm very happy that she won. I doubt she'll be underappreciated going forward. Both played OK, but not great. Kenin just played better when it mattered, just like she did against Barty. Mugu had her chances to secure th…
  • I hope you guys are right. I’ve been following Kenin very closely since she turned pro and would love to see her win. That said, I don’t think that she will. She was very nervous against Barty. Barty was just more nervous, and quite frankly, other …
  • (Quote) That's for sure. I've seen that script a million times where her opponent folds after losing a tight set. I turned it off when Wang couldn't serve out the match at 5-4 in the second set. Ironically that was the only service game she lost al…
  • (Quote) I'm so conflicted on that one. I've been fading Gauff from the beginning and it hasn't worked out well. Kenin on the other hand has been perhaps my best cash cow over the past couple of years. I was all ready to hit her hard in this one, bu…
  • It seems that every time I come into one of your threads you’re posting winners. You seem to be the jack of all sports lately. Fishboom used to be that guy, but he seems to have disappeared, so maybe you are the heir apparent. Keep up the good work!
  • (Quote) Nice rally back to respectability. I see that you've been getting some nice CLV recently. I'm still doubting that you can get enough, but if you can continue your short term trends, you might prove me wrong. I'd love to be wrong.
  • Yes, a little more profitable than I would have guessed. NBA games do land close to the lines with relative frequency. So you can make a good living off 1.5 points of CLV in the NBA. Unfortunately, you have zero chance of getting that. Zero. Even …
  • (Quote) Very profitable when you cherry pick the most important 1.5 points that cross the 3 point margin of victory. Now how about across all spreads, as your statement implied?
  • (Quote) Ha! Why don’t you tell us Mr. CLV? My guess would be just enough to beat the vig, i.e. 53%
  • (Quote) Mods don’t care Ron. As long as you are a veteran poster apparently you can post unattainable lines and put any bets in your main record. A new poster would get slammed instantly for not keeping a separate record, not posting lines from app…
  • Sorry, but they were both legitimate, especially the push off. It was obvious from the sideline angle that he pushed off to create separation. The defender knew it was going on the offense when the flag was thrown. I’m not sure what Romo was looking…
  • I had the Browns. The officiating is not the problem. The coach is the problem. That and a team that just can’t keep from shooting themselves in the foot, which is partially coaching as well.
  • Yea, I thought the same thing when I first started watching him, but he has the uncanny ability to make good contact without being in classic good position. I’m not sure how he even does it. It’s all part of his quirky game. That’s actually the part…
  • What do you think of Medvedev? Is he the real deal destined to be a multiple slam winner? He sure looks like it to me. Tremendous thinker.
  • (Quote) Resolved by him eating the loser instead of getting a push? That isn’t my definition of amicable. What casino? I’ll be sure to never play there if they can’t even follow their own rules.
  • Ha! I loved the one set rule today. I was on Kenin. I don't think it really matters much, you'll be on the right side some of the time and the wrong side some of the time regardless of which rule is in effect. I guess I've gotten used to the one se…
  • Pretty sure he means that they pay regardless of whether a full set is completed, as long as the match starts. If I recall correctly our resident tennis expert h8 switched to this grading format this year. All of my offshore books use the full set g…
  • (Quote) First tennis tournament I’ve been to since watching Jimmy Connors from the nosebleed seats at the 1983 US Open. It was an awesome experience. I can’t believe how close you can get to the court on the side courts. I was first row on the base…
