Soccer 2016 August-December

[BASON]

I got greedy and it cost me on Sunday. Hannover game was ridiculous, can't believe they lost 2-0.

I pounded Barca and Bayern -2.5 yesterday. I will also play first half lines for regular bets once I see them posted and play halftimes depending on the first halves.

This is all I am playing. I like other games (Arsenal +.5, Lodorgorets +.5), but I am focused on what I believe will be 2 blowouts. Barca is getting blasted in the press and I expect them to come out quickly and not let up against a Celtic team that is way outclassed. I honestly do not know a lot about Rostov. One thing I love about Bayern is that usually take care of business and don't let the other team breathe (unlike Dortmund). I will be surprised is both these games are not 4 or 5 to nil.

If I am dead wrong about these games I will likely take a little break as I am risking significant money.

+32.3* going into today. barca looking swell and arsenal being arsenal in big games.

 

[BASON]

Great day today all around!!

Have to take advantage of these situations as they come to build the bank roll.

Back to work for the rest of the week.

 

[BASON]

Keeping it simple today.

I liked Porto from the start and like them to win this group. Always tough at home and Copenhagen is not very good in my opinion especially on the road. I will lay the -1 at plus money but wouldn't hesitate to lay the 160 either. I think we see 2-0.

Playing Real -2Ev for my second play. Don't love it as much as yesterday's big favorites, but I expect them to take care of business with Ronaldo back in the fold. They will want to make a statement like Barca and Bayern. Also think this should go over.

I like some others but sticking to the short card after the big day yesterday. Easy to like a lot of favorites today but I don't trust many of them. Don't think Dortmund should be laying 1.5 (first time in 20 years a Polish team got this far), but I am staying away from their games for a while. I can see Leverkusen, Tottenham and Juve wins but don't like the numbers. Also don't like the fact that Tottenham is playing at Wembley (that line seems low to me, was expecting at least 150).

Interesting stat for the Man City game. Guardiola coached four Bayern games against Gladbach and has never beaten them - 2D and 2L.

 

[Bradjmad22]

Totally agree- Barca and Bayern were free $$$ yesterday. There are a lot of interesting match ups today; Porto looks like they want it, and it's tough to think Real won't come out swinging today. I'll be on one around 1:30 myself

 

[BASON]

Have not had anytime to cap. Will try to get some time in tonight.

Playing Bochum in Bundesliga 2 this morning. Nurnberg has some issues and is not playing well at all. Their striker is also out for this game.

 

[BASON]

Add the over in the Chelsea/Liverpool game. Liverpool games have seen goals as their defense is suspect, so I don't see it any different today.

chlelsea liverpool halftime plays

chlelsea liverpool halftime plays

chelsea has been just terrible.... so going against the grain here...playing these as Liverpool leads 2-0 at half but defense has been leaky all year and see Chelsea scores this half after adjustments

Chelsea/Liverpool draw 1* to win 5*
Chelsea +1.5 4* to win 4.4*
Chelsea wins exactly 3-2 .5* to win 11*
Chelsea/liverpool over 3.5 3.9* to win 3*

i doubt they win this but for half a * Im going to try it..

I def think they make a game of this and + money at +1.5 seems nice to me

I will be working on plays here and such for the weekend here over next hour or so

EPL


Watford +1.5 4* to win 2*

I know it's early but this line will skyrocket , I think

Man U 5.4* to win 3*
Man U -1 3.3* to win 3*

+69.1* after both 10* MLS plays come in which puts me at 5-1 on 10* plays arsenal and leicester were big wins as well today


anyhow I have both teams tomorrow a bove in this game trying to get man u to win by 1... but the more I think about it...man U off two straight losses .. I think they come out and win this for sure

addning

man u 5.1* to win 3*
southampton 1.5* to win 1* need a win bad, small bet in hopes they get there

 

[Bradjmad22]

GL Pitt- getting down on the over 2.5 myself


Southampton game over 2.5 (-120)
$240 to win $200


Line is moving in my direction and we should see them push the pace. Last home match between them was 3-1, and I liked the way their offense looked last week

 

[PittsburghKid]

Update record later so super busy


EFL cup

Liverpool -1 18* to win 10*
Liverpool FH 6* to win 5*
Chelsea 3* to win 3*
Arsenal -1 5.5* to win 5*
Newcastle 3* to win 2*
Arsenal FH 2* to win 2*

I said last round that Juergen klopp has stated this competition is a priority...I'm going to continue to take him at his word

Leicester has to balance all the competitions and with league match on weekend and champion league next week I could see a weaker lineup and Chelsea has more depth .. Newcastle lost to wolves 2-0 2 days ago and are -150. Biting

 

[BASON]

Agree on just about everything in the Cup, especially Liverpool. I will likely wait to see the lineups in the Chelsea game.

Going to make a play on Nurnberg +125 today in Bundesliga 2 despite their recent form. For those not that familiar with German soccer, Nurnberg/Furth is one of the biggest rivalries in all of German soccer. This game is always a nasty war with red cards, etc. Nurnberg sits in last place and has been horrendous. If they lose today, the Coach might as well pack up after the game, grab his family, and get out of town as soon as possible. Hoping we see a great effort from Nurnberg today and they pull out a 2-1 win. Not a big play.

In the Bundesliga, I am making a small play on Wolfsburg +.5 +115. Dortmund has been on a roll lately, but I am not sure we see their A effort, or team, today given their Champions League schedule. Big game for Wolfsburg, so expecting huge home effort. Gomez should be more comfortable and I expect him to score.

Opening new restaurant this week, so I have not had the chance to put in the normal capping time. Hopefully, I can get back to normal next week and post more plays.

 

[PittsburghKid]

lets get em Bason. I have an hour to kill before practice so finally relaxing for a few watching these EFL games.. Dortmud looks to be back in good form

+58.3* to min prior to todays action. will update after

Killing the EFL cup over first 2 rounds

+79.3* on year

+82.3* on year!! were rolling folks as usual 10* plays now 6-1
EFL Cup

Man U -1.5 7* to win 5*
Man U FH 15* to win 10*

I know they are resting top players but after 3 straight defeats they still have the overwhelming difference in talent.. They need to come out early and make a statement.

Spurs FH 6* to win 3*

 

[PittsburghKid]

La Liga 9/21

Atletico FH draw 1* to win 1.4*
Atletico FH +.5 2.6* to win 2*
Atletico 1* to win 3*
Atletico +1 2.6* to win 2*
Atletico to record shutout 1* to win 8*

small plays but taking a shot as I have been a big backer of this teams defense

 

[BASON]

Great job Kid. I shouldn't have played anything as I did not have the proper time to cap.

 

[BASON]

Playing Braunschweig today +105. They have been impressive so far this season and Dusseldorf has not been very good on the road. They should secure the home win today. Good size play for me.

If they win, I will likely play the over in the Dortmund game.

Some big Champions League games coming this week, so need to be careful with some of the big teams. Dortmund seems to have their rotation together and Freiburg can score. Looking for 3-1 type game. Dortmund then gets the extra day off and has Real at home on Tuesday. This could be a big play for me next week as Real lines are always exaggerated in my opinion, plus they have some injury issues. I see Dortmund at +150 right now which looks like a good value. More on this later.

Should have a couple good Bundesliga plays tomorrow that I will try to post tonight.

Also looking forward to Leicester/Man U early tomorrow morning. Not sure if I will play, but I will not be playing Man U (likely the draw at +300). Mourinho can't put his wealthy pieces together. Rooney needs to be off the pitch. He is not a playmaker and he is making Pogba invisible. Blint should be sent back home as he has been horrendous. Martial should not see the field. Can go on and on. We will see what kind of manager Mourinho really is. He has all the pieces.
