Very good. I don't have it tracked on the forum but if you PM me I will give you my +/- units for the past 3 years.

Gimme,

thoughts on the UNC game tonight? I was thinking Evansville +29.5 and over 157.5. What do you think??

 

[sportsmonitor]

Gimme-
Good luck tonight.

Hey Gimme, I was wondering what criteria you use to take a 1st half line as opposed to the game line?

I generally don't like to take the favorite in the 1st half because I don't get many of the advantages you would expect a favorite to have over the entire game: deeper bench, dog getting tired, dog's best players in foul trouble, desparation fouling to extend the game, etc.

But I've noticed that you do take alot of favorites on 1h line. How do you decide when to do it? Thanks.

Any input on South Alabama -4? One thing that stuck out to me is that they lost @ Louisville by 27, and Western Kentucky won by 14 @ Louisville. Thanks. Keep up the good work.

I'm not sure what critria he uses, but here's a perfect example. Look at the average half scores vs. the total game scores. The half is the advantage on this game...IMO

very important to look past 1 game, and look at the entire body of work. can't let 1 game make your decision, be it their last game, or 1 particular game.

I don't like laying 20 or 30 point lines just because I can cap the game perfectly and they can get backdoored so easily. I prefer on big lines to go 1st half with good teams, at home, that can score in bunches.

It has worked out pretty solid for me over the years.

Gimme,

thoughts on the UNC game tonight? I was thinking Evansville +29.5 and over 157.5. What do you think??

Sounds like 2-0 to me. I think this is a UNC 94 Evansiville 78 type game. I think I may add the over. Didn't see the total up this morning.

Yup, teams play bad games. Teams play good games. Sometimes 9 out of 10 times one team will cover but the time they actually play will be the time your team shoots 29% from the field. Just got to put yourself in a favorable position more often then not and I think that this is one of those.

Thanks, I can see that on a big line. Why the 1st half on Cincy tonight?

In my mind the first half is no more then a 20:00 game. People try to break it down too much but it is just a game with the line -2.5. I like Cincy in the game tonight but just feel that with the line now up to 5.5 it is not worth it and that 1st half is the play.
