I hedged my ass off on the teaser in case anyone was wondering. If the total falls on 42, 43, 44, or 45, I middle and make bank
 
Nice! Feeling much better now. Plenty of game left but that is BIG.
 
Nice win by the Packers tonight. I myself was on Packers +4 for a unit, but once again another game that the spread doesn't come into play.

Packers getting a win hurts a lot more than the betting loss

Feel pretty good about this one for tonight

$105.93/$101.22
Villanova first half -450
Cavs -300
Spurs -1500
Duke -800
 
Fell in love with Rockets -1.5 against a Utah Jazz playing the 2nd game of a back-to-back.
Half smashed that line last night and of course I wake up to it being -2.5 now.

Tempted to downright smang it, seems like the value I've been waiting for a couple days now.
 
chi -134 in nhl doesn't make sense to me.

first game back from a long roadtrip can be tricky, granted, but florida kinda disorganized, just fired their coach.. could they be motivated with new coach today? i guess? but chicago has been beastly at home. 8-1-2 on the season.

think it should be -200 chi. but hey, -200 things are supposed to lose 33 % of the time, anyway, so there's that.

2.68u chi.
 
^^ bookie fading me. as soon as i bet it and post that, it dropped to -120. and flyers -125 dropped to -110, lmao.

i'm a cancer.

think the odds on Chicago will get even better?
 
I normally love betting on the Lakers against not so great teams, but missing Russell and Randle is huge. These two teams played earlier in the season that resulted in a Lakers blow out but if you look deeply into that game, the Pelicans were up 1 at halftime before A Davis got hurt in the second half, which basically lead to the trouncing. As I've been preaching for a few days now, this Pelicans team is better with the return of Jrue Holiday but they're still inconsistent defensively. I think there's line value in the Lakers as it currently stands at +6 but the game just screams trap (im from LA, all my Lakers fan friends think "Lakers should be favorites"). With all that being said, I'm taking the Pelicans -6 for 2u. The Lakers arent good defensively so I think the Pelicans can definitely score enough points to cover this spread. But without Russell and Randle, I think its likely that the Lakers are inconsistent offensively with their volatile shooters (clarkson, young, l. williams). A Davis should absolutely feast today as long as he doesnt get hurt

Pelicans -6 for 2u

I'm probably going to tail you on this.

Also looking at Pistons +3. This is going to be the Hornets 4th game in 5 days. Outside of their win last night in Memphis, their defense has been bad. They coughed up a 21 point lead to the Knicks on Saturday night (but still won the game). On the flipside, the Pistons are 1-8 on the road. This would be more of a fade of Charlotte in this spot than anything. Any thoughts?

4 games in 5 nights is no joke. good catch. there's prob more value on the ML than the +3 but id hate for you to only bet on the ML and have Detroit lose by 2 lol. but yeah, ill throw a flier on the Pistons as well just for the brutal schedule the Hornets have played recently

Cool, thanks. Also doing a small play on Rockets ML -115. They're offensive has been on fire, they're 5-1 in their last six road games and the Jazz played in Minnesota last night. Only thing scaring me a little is Houston won in Utah less than 2 weeks ago.

Also did a tiny parlay of Pistons ML/Pelicans ML/Rockets ML just for fun @ +500.

Rockets are road favorites? Or is it basically a pick? I'd prob stay away from Houston or at least dont go too big. Also, I'm PRETTY sure the game two weeks ago ws in Houston, not Utah
