I'm going to take a dime...

and see if I can turn it into $10K. The way I see it, I have to win my first couple to build a nice bankroll. It's not good money management, but I've taken a break from the NBA for the last several weeks and who knows, I might go on a lucky streak. GLTA

1st play
NJ Nets -9 (-105) $1000 to win $952.38

I haven't a clue about the pick but I have seen this strategy many times over the last 30 years and its always ended in the

I hope you buck the trend but its long odds against

Good luck anyways

good start

after this week, im not sure if i even have $1000 to follow u though

The Nets let the Raptors stick around until middle of the 4th when they unloaded on them...it's unreal how good they have been playing under their new head coach.

I am probably being impatient and looking to find a game to bet on tonight, so I probably shouldn't. However, I will anyway since my sportsbook has reduced juice for the day and I feel like this new Trailblazers team sans Wallace can take care of business even against a good home team like the Warriors.

2nd play
Portland +3 (-105) $1952.38 to win $1859.41

93 - 92
Golden State with 20.0 Seconds left .... Robinson just blocked S. Rahim shot & they got the ball back. Portland has the ball. They are at a FULL TIMEOUT right now.

UPDATE

PORTLAND up 94 - 93 with 5.0 Seconds to go in the game. Golden State has the ball. FULL TIMEOUT!

FINAL SCORE

Portland - 94
Golden St. - 93

THAT'S Two ....

If it weren't for those offensive rebounds in the final seconds (thus taking time away opportunities for Portland to foul Golden State in case they missed) and then Randolph's layup to seal the deal......

Anyway, it was a great game!

1st play
NJ Nets -9 (-105) $1000 to win $952.38W
2nd play
Portland +3 (-105) $1952.38 to win $1859.41W

Total : $3811.79

That leaves one more double up and then a smaller play....hopefully tomorrow turns out as good as today!

Was only able to play $3300 on this game since apparently VIPsports has lower limits than my old sportsbook. Hopefully, I can get them raised later (I am not by a phone so I can't call it in). Anyway, Heat are coming off of a huge win against Atlanta and the Nuggets are coming off of a loss at Orlando. You would think that the line would be higher, so the fact that it is low seems fishy. Then again, sometimes it is easy to overthink a game...so I'm going to go with my gut feeling about this game.

3rd play
Miami Heat -2 $3300 to win $3000

 

[SweeptheBoard]

Solid win with the Heat this afternoon. Was gone all afternoon, so didn't get a chance to bet on any evening games. I look to make one more large bet to get to $10K and then cash out. I need to go back to my old book which doesn't have these low limits.

 

[bookemdano+]
