a little sniping comes with a public forum, especially for a newcomer who jumps out of the gate. jack will keep the tone under control, there are plenty of thoughtful players who will give you an honest look, maybe even some constructive feedback - we can all use some of that, right?

g/l with the plays and the system.

BB --

Hope you got better lines that those you just posted: I got down about an hour before gametime at Olympic and got:

Clemson +4.5

NC Charlotte -11

Nebraska -4.5


The first two obviously moved 2 and 2.5 points respectively in our favor...I'll always take another basket for the cover...

SB and BB,

I thought I'd done well getting Clemson +3.5 with the local. As Maxwell Smart would say, "...missed it by that much..." Come on Charlotte and Nebraska.

The one play I did have on my list and didn't play was Louisville. I guess I should trust my own capping every once in a while. Scared money = lost money.

made bets at 11:30 AM and got:

Clemson +4 1/2 closede at+ 5 1/2
Charlotte -12 closed at -10 1/2
nebraska -4 closed at - 4 1/2

But for my overall record it counts as 1 win 2 losses. Let the comments begin :mj17:

2 win 1 loss night for me as well. The non-egotistical and intelligent way you've gone about things here are the exact reasons why everyone should be behind you. I can smell a fake a mile away, and I dont think your it. Keep up the good work....and keep the same attitude you've shown. I'm along for the ride.

Well, get some last night. Give a little over half back tonight. You're still 5-2 posted. I'm working on tomorrow and look forward to comparing what I find to what you enlighten us with.

:yawn:

I'm sure this is a stupid question, but how did you go 1-2? Did you go with the lines you listed first? Just curious, but I can't figure it out. Good luck with the system, I tailed ya tonight for a little change. Thanks again, JP

BB...are you selling yourself short?

Clemson (65-69) (+4') W
Charlotte (94-87) (-12) L
Nebraska (77-67) (-4) W

With your early morning lines, you still went 2-1 just like the rest of us...Great Job and thanks for the reply.

Doc, thats what I thought too, and couldn't understand it at all. I went back and reread the posts earlier in the thread, and he originally posted clemson +2.5. (or at least there is where his second loss is I guess) Either way, best of luck the rest of the way, JB

The logic would dictate that since you are taking the clubs with the more exaggerated negative lines, if you waited until later to lay your wager, the lines should move in your direction.

Also, again, have you tried this with NBA?

I've been using the same kind of stuff for years.
I noticed it a while back.
It seemmed that just when I thought my numbers where solid and i had a 4 pt, or more overlay (like at the racetrack) I'd lose my bet
so I would bet the other way and started picking up more winners.
What the lines tell you is that your number must be wrong!!
We all know Vegas has the best numbers!
the hardest part, is faith in your numbers and the guts to bet against yourself. because your probably right
JUST NOT TODAY,
also, i would never change my power ratings after one of those games
I think the key, is making sure it's not a difference based on an injury or something like that, Just as Billy has said. cuz you can get bit
and, he's correct it does tend to fall apart in the tournaments I've been burned many times over the years following it faithfully like I had during the regular season.
Hey Billy!
Have a Cigar!!

2-0 with my book & in my book: neb-4.5 / clem+5 / THANKS!!!nice to take a day off and still cash.NOTE: any time you make a play ,you make it your own,should never come back and blame others for your loss.you have to do your home work,capp the cappers as well as the games.
