Few comments, results, 1 lean 3/29 - ?

Best comment I can think of is - what system/methods worked just great for the in season games and wasn't very reliable from the start of the Conference Champs games to right now is whats happening here. Unmanageable upsets sprinkled with a few too many games that were won/covered with the LAST shot of the game sure as hell is affecting the best of MJ's handicappers. I don't keep W/L records and if I did I wouldn't score one of them last shot games as a WIN or a loss cause there is NO WAY a capper could predict which side of the rim that dang last ball is gonna fall on to make that team cover the spread or w/l a M.L. bet.

Best move I made was to reduce the bet size as soon as I noticed how the games were behaving after the first few days of the Conf. games.

Not anything worthy for today - I need a no-brainer Baylor win tonight to cash the teaser I put in yesterday. I call those "Teaser or parlay STUFFERS" to add a little boost with the payoff. It's a good idea to have two Bookie Mons. Get it?

I'm leaning on Mich, for tonight but I hate that 7 pt. line. Notice that no. (7 - 7 1/2) seems to be an oddmakers favorite no. for more than a few games lately. Thinking that might mean something and it ain't good?

Keeping my head :s1: and the bet on USC took care of the Bama loss plus a bit more $.

Good luck! I'm thinking of putting all 4 favorites in a ML Parlay and seeing what happens. I think we're gonna have a predictable Elite 8 and then a damn good Final 4.

Good Luck with that parlay, TJ

Good Luck with that parlay, TJ

I can't recommend any bets the way these games play with these games. I guess my preference would be betting a little heavier with 2 separate two teamers. Hitting 3 outa 4 is a common result with those 4 baggers.

BTW, that Mich. lean I wrote earlier is vs. UCLA tomorrow . The current line is -6 1/2. I'm thinking about putting one other team with Mich. in a parlay. I'm not going to force finding a team to put with them; I may not play anything at all.

Best of LUCK with what ever you play,Touchdown Jesus. Have a Happy 'Easter too.

I agree. I rarely play these b/c like you say, one upset will screw up the whole thing. So many low seeds in the Elite 8, I just think there are a group of maybe 6-8 teams that are head and shoulders above the rest of the field and so far, so good.

I don't see Gonzaga losing before the Final 4 and I do think they'll win it all this year. Michigan vs an 11-seed....at this point I just wish I had put more on it lol but we'll see.

If taken straight I'd have taken Oregon St and gotten lucky there at the end and I'd have taken Baylor...so tonight I'm gonna play both games but not sure yet and still got the ML Parlay in progress. We shall see.

Happy Easter to you as well. I'm hoping for big things in connection to the "parting of the red sea" so to speak in the Suez Canal..
