Hey guys, this is one of my first times actually posting, I'm new so I'm going to say this... My record isn't all that great. But it doesn't mean its all that bad either. I've been following a lot of people on here, and I think that if we are able to work as a community, we're able to make money in the long run, and enjoy some badass sports. Anyway, I've never posted any single gamers mostly all I've put up were Parleys and teasers. my record for those 1-3 but you know how those work. lol. Anyway So i'm going to start this thread with my single bets. and then come closer to the games I'll make one four or five game parley. (I always do this for fun). Anyway I wish everyone the best of luck, and thanks to everyone who's helped me in the past few days.

Villanova vs. Duke

Villanova(25-6)a vs. Duke(25-6).
Current Line. Duke -2.5
1 Unit.

Pick = Villanova +2.5

I've been following the nova for the better half of this tournament and needless to say they are really looking good as a basketball team. I know their performance against American was a little weak, but to be down almost twenty points, and still pull off a win beating them by 13 must say something. Nova will come into this game averaging 77.0 pts per game shooting at 45.7%. and they are making free throws at 74.6%, while duke only averages 72.8% of their free throws. Vegas says this is going to be a high powered offense driven game with the over/under at 148 I think someone overlooked the Nova Defense.

Other important numbers you should know

DUKE 1-1 Against the spread against nova
DUKE 15-17 ATS in all games this season
NOVA 17-14 ATS in all games this season

The betting public is correct when moving the money line in VILLANOVA games 54.5% of the time since 1997.

(151-126)The betting public is correct when moving the money line in VILLANOVA games 52.9% of the time over the past 3 seasons. (37-33)

right now as it stands:

88% of bets on NOVA MONEYLINE
69% of bets on NOVA the spread.

I'm telling you guys take nova +2.5

Good luck everyone.

Syracuse University vs Oklahoma University
NCAA Basketball

So I decided to do a write up on the Syracuse/OU game. Recently I’ve done okay in this tournament. If you guys look at my past statuses I’ve gone 12-15 in all games that includes NIT as well, but nonetheless winners aren’t easy to pick I’ll tell you that.

Syracuse is coming into this 28-9, While OU comes in at 29-5. This is really going to be a ball game! The Orange have some amazing defense, and an offense that averages 80.4 points per game. Syracuse is 64.4% at the free throw line. The Orange’s defense allows the opponent 74.1 pts on average, and 75.5 pts on road games. Of course these are averages, but we’re able to learn a lot from their history. OU on the other hand plays incredibly psychical, much like Syracuse but in a more balanced fashion. OU’s defense allows only 67.3 pts on all games this season, and 67.2 pts on road games. OU has averaged over 79.1 pts per game this season, OU also has been making 67.6% of their free throws. Is this game going to be the rule of averages? Of course not, both these teams are from different conferences with different styles of play. Right now the Big East is dominating this tournament, but playing ball in the big twelve isn’t exactly a walk in the park. This is going to be a very close game, and its going to come down to who can play the best defense. It’s such a close game that Las Vegas, and the books there don’t even know who to go with. There’s no spread… just a winner. I’ve read a lot of information on this game, and I’ve seen a lot of people post blogs, and bulletins about how for sure they are that Syracuse is going to win because they have been on fire. Right now as it stands the betting public is spilt 51%/49% leaning toward Syracuse. I even know people that attend the school. but I’m going to have to say I’m sorry to everyone on the east coast and lean toward OU on this one. Personally If I were betting… which I probably am, I would just take the over. But, if I were to pick a winner it would be OU.

Here is my play;

81-79 Oklahoma University over Syracuse.

(if you really want to make money, just take the over. Right now its at 152.5 It'll probably move up, so get it while its low. its 85% a sure thing…)

Would love to hear your thoughts… or your scolding… if you like Syracuse lol

Please remailn out of threads started by Mr Flava unnless you are able to remain positive.

The Rx. policy on reporting abusive and out of line posting in an Rx.com sport forum

<HR style="COLOR: #fdde82; BACKGROUND-COLOR: #fdde82" SIZE=1><!-- / icon and title --><!-- message -->Posters - PLEASE show each other at least a small amount of courtesy when posting in any of The Rx.com Sport Forums, all of this bickering and ridicule is getting tiresome and worse than that very counter-productive.

All of you are here to try to beat your bookies, not each other, so again please either post productively or use The Rubber Room if you want to post abusively or criticise your fellow posters.

Please try your best to help each other or if you can't do that than kindly leave well enough alone posters who you may disagree with.

The Rx.com moderator team is spread fairly thin and has to depend upon you posters to report bashing. abusive posting and un-called for criticism or ridicule in any of our Sport Forums by using the "Report a Post" icon at the bottom left of all post boxes.

Violaters will be warned, repeat violaters will be placed on post review for for periods of time commensurate with the degree of bashing or abusive posting.

Eventually mutiple offenders who have been warned on several occasions will be banned from the site indefinitely.

Please use the "Report a Post" icon to report any bashing or out of line posting that either happens to you or any you see happening to others - it will be greatly appreciated by The Rx.com Moderator team as well as the poster being abused. Reports will be acted upon promptly and with complete discretion. Simply click on the triangular icon at the bottom left hand corner of all Rx.com post boxes.

Icon: All posts have this icon at bottom left.

Also any poster who sees something that appears to be out of line should feel free to contact any of the Rx. moderators (see list below) or use the report Post function icon above.

Using the icon will immediately generate an email with a link to the offending post to several moderators, one of which who upon receipt of the email will take immediate action and deal with the offending poster or posters. All you need to do is click on the icon and type one,two or maybe three simple words and click on SEND REPORT.

Those few words can be something along the lines of abusive poster, profane language, uncalled for bashing, unfair criticism etc.

When posters assist each other in such a manner then there is little chance that a poster will be on the receiving end of unfair bashing or abusive posting for very long.

Posters are also invited to email moderators individually if so desired. However this method for reporting abusive posting can be slower in obtaining results than using the report a post icon method.

Rx.com Moderator Team with email addresses:


wilheim@therx.com
robfunk@therx.com
sportsavant@therx.com
oldmanted@therx.com
barman@therx.com
bucsfan67@therx.com
betallsports@therx.com
HacheMan@therx.com




The entire Rx.com moderator team is asking all of you to show some courtesy to each other. Everyone who is serious about betting on sports deserves to be allowed to post their own thread without being abused or ridiculed by other posters. This goes for veteran and newbie posters alike.

Do not get into an argument in any sport forum threads, simply report the out of line posts and a moderator will deal with it ASAP.

Any threads or posts that don't conform to this policy are subject to being moved to the Rubber Room entirely.

Thank you from the entire Rx.com Mod Team..
