FFA Wagering Thread: THERE HE IS!@! (4 Viewers)

Everyone > hi.

BENDER!!!! Made some curry chicken yesterday and instead of rice I made some cauliflower rice based on one of your posts in a fat person thread. It was awesome!

Self-imposed gambling hiatus is almost done. Heading to Vegas on the 19th for the first two rounds again. I've already started my mental checkout from work.
im confused, but will also be there getting in on the 19th.

 
Need to do a little more homework just to verify, but I currently have the Yankees chance of winning more than 86 games at 0.00000000000000000002%.
they have a new bunch of old guys this yr
They also a) were outscored last year, despite winning 85 games and b) lost a 6-7 WAR guy without finding a reasonable replacement.

Like I said, further research might be needed. Hughes to Tanaka is obviously a big upgrade. Is Beltran really going to play RF over Soriano? Is that real?

 
i was tryin2 run w the king$ becauz I had class till late but my school txxt me - i was like LOL who di$ b? they was like its cold outside u dont have class! LOL! neck chokin & booty clappin all daay! #thiscouldbeusbutyouplayin

 
sportsbook has their player props up for baseball
They've been up over a week, get busy bud! Pedroia o 163.5 hits is a great bet.
:thumbup: every yr but 2010 when he only played 70 some games..

Ooo I just remembered they unblocked all the sports sites at work. I was going to spend my own time trying some of these out
they really account for injuries and try to make you take the overs on these.

 
K-St average 65.1 ±8.6 points per game as the road dog in Big12 play since 2011. Their team total is set at 65, so if you can happen to get over 56.5 live, it might be fun to root for.

 
Another key learning: always check the injury report. I usually only look up injuries if a line looks way off, but McAdoo at o/u 7 rebs looked like about where Bovada would set the line against Notre Dame. Turned out Garrick Sherman was out, and there's no way I play that line if I had known that. I even have a website bookmarked that compiles all the injuries for you. Lazy.

 
My "hockey prop pal" just said I won the Online Sportsbook Tripple Crown. Bovada was the third book I was #### off from. I think I'm using that as my Fantasy Baseball team name this year.

 
last couple days haven't gone that great, but

CBJ O28.5 SOG looks good at SB (Leafs give up the most shots in the league).

I also like these but the lines are already set pretty well on them and money seems to be coming in quickly so they might not last for long.

BUF U27.5

DAL O32.5

CGY U26.5

MTL U26.5
odd flames and habs moved to 26 but got juiced to -140
not sure why I posted this.. wasnt odd

 
Used past stats, rotoworld and site projections here to try to figure these out. Did ok last yr on the handful I made plus hit that Scherzer CY. But here goes still have 20 some pitchers to look at. FYFYIFYIYFIYFIYF The units are consistent, but they are not the same unit size I play NFL props

1.25

Chris Davis over 36 HR's -115 Loser Injured

Paul Goldschmidt over 29.5 HR's -120 Loser Injured

5-0 and none were really that close. Hope some got in.
 
Pelicans since ASB:

SU: 0-8 (-11.75, 0.0%)

ATS: 2-6-0 (-6.50, 25.0%) avg line: 5.2

The Pelicans are also 0-10 SU and 2-6-2 ATS L10 (avg line 7.3) in their second game of B2B. And then holy crap the Lakers beat Portland last night. It is actually B2B for both teams, and the last game of a five-game road trip for New Orleans. But check it out, the Pelicans have been in this situation before - back on Dec 23. They had lost the first four games of a five-game road trip, went into Sacramento, and won 113-100 against a pick 'em spread and a total of 209.5. They also ended a previous eight-game losing streak in Memphis on Jan 20.

The Lakers are 4-9 SU in their second game of B2B, and this will actually be the first time they have been favored to win their second game of a B2B this year (average line 8.1). I think after last night this -1.5 spread, aka "less than a bucket," will get a lot of action on the Lakers side, but the Pelicans will end up winning. Not to mention the Lakers have the Clippers next, too. It might be arbitrary, but the Lakers are 4-4 SU and 0-7-1 ATS (avg line -4.1) in the games before they played the Clippers w/ Chris Paul.

It is going to be nuts playing the Pelicans since they lose a lot, but I think I will play them action junkie style tomorrow night, especially if most of the $ comes in on L.A.

Was something nice to wake up to. Thx GB :thumbup:

 
So this extra point thing in the NFL, I wonder how it is going to affect lines and 7 and 3 and buying on or off those numbers.
Success rate on 40-49 FG's is around 83%. So maybe one missed XP per game, but with those odds, it's going to start making more mathematical sense to go for 2. Especially for teams with some offensive firepower.

7 is going to be less of a key number. 3 as well. Everything would get a lot mushier. And if it doesn't kill Wong Teasers entirely, it'd be enough to put them on serious life support.

wonder what rate of 40-45 yards are. maybe a few points higher, but then teams need to look at 2 pt conver rate. If that is around 40% then it seems like it is about a split.

Then plus with any crappy conditions ever you think the 2 pt conversion would be attempted more also.

Will be interesting to watch and learn

It will make Super Bowl squares a lot different. Gone will be the days of pulling a 2 and a 5 and wadding the sheet into a paper ball.

BENDER!!!! Made some curry chicken yesterday and instead of rice I made some cauliflower rice based on one of your posts in a fat person thread. It was awesome!

Self-imposed gambling hiatus is almost done. Heading to Vegas on the 19th for the first two rounds again. I've already started my mental checkout from work.
im confused, but will also be there getting in on the 19th.
Confused about what?

You staying there for the whole weekend? And Mr. Lambskin - I"ll post the recipe here when I get home tonight.

I didnt read it correctly thought you were saying you were bender...

leaving detroit around 4 wednesday and then leaving saturday night. Staying at Luxor. How about you?

 
They should just see how many fingers the guy who scored the touchdown can fit into the other team's shortest cheerleader - give him one point per finger.

 
My favorite play of the day in SOG is:
DET U28.5 (have them projected at 25.5)
Also like these quite a bit:BOS O31.5 (proj at 33.5)CAR U29.5 (proj at 27.5)
COL U28.5 (proj at 26.5)TBL U29.5 (proj at 27.5)

 
Average scoring by quarter in the four games lined +20 or more since 1995:

Q1 Q2 Q3 Q4 Final23.2 25.2 27.2 24.2 100.022.8 20.5 17.5 17.8 78.5Average scoring by quarter L6 Sixers road games:

Code:
Q1	Q2	Q3	Q4	Final31.7	25.8	29.0	24.2	110.720.5	22.0	20.8	26.2	89.5
 
76ers 1Q u24½ 110/100

76ers 1H u49½ 110/100

I can't call it with those numbers, and it's a ####ty ### game to bet on, but 5D is offering the ½ point that BetUs isn't offering on these, so #### it fade the Sixers.

Maybe Excalibur? I'm not real sure. I go with a group every year and one guy usually handles all that, but we often end up at MGM for the games. We usually scope all the various setups Wednesday night and pick one. I'm there until Monday morning assuming I survive. I'll be the guy wearing a Pitt jersey with a bunch of obnoxious Zona fans and one Michigan State guy.
