No idea if it matters or not.

 

[lumpy19]

So how exactly does one go about finding a local who takes SB props? An ad in the Yellow Pages? I've had no luck. I'd settle for a guy anywhere in New England, NY or NJ. Shoot me a PM if you can help a fella out.

Good luck. Even if you do find one he's not exactly going to be excited when you demolish him on props. You're better off getting a new sportsbook.ag account under a friend/relatives name, rinse, repeat

yeah locals dont offer anywhere close to the amount of props that the online books, and if they do they are very careful with them

Who we got for 12:00 game. I'm leaning Winthrop

 

[optionmaven]

Good Posting Judge, or any other footy experts, any thoughts on the games today? Mexico seems to play to alot of draws, and the USA/Ukraine draw has also sparked my interest. With all the unrest and political upheaval, might the USA squad play down in this game?

Actually that's not what I'm saying. I've found locals that offer the props but they are considerably less tolerant than an online sportsbook. In addition I've NEVER been stiffed by an online book, even ones that have cut me off. I've been stiffed by several "locals".

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

yeah, I can't imagine finding a local who takes these, winning a ton of money off him, and then expecting that to end well.

Today's Conference Tournament stuff:

Big South and Ohio Valley Tourney's are hosted at a 'neutral' site, but most of the time it's somebody's home court, which sometimes plays a role

Big South - Conway, SC and Ohio Valley - Nashville, TN - anyone know who's home courts these are?

Northeast Conference and Patriot League games are played AT the higher seed..

...fyi...

Noon #5 Liberty vs #4 Winthrop - not much difference between these two, spread is only -4...pass.

More later?

 

[comfortably numb]

CBB tipping off at noon today...it's officially march madness!!

Winthrop 1H

Let the madness begin

No clue, these games are hard because they don't really count so you don't know how seriously everyone's going to take them.

The US game did get moved from the Ukraine to a neutral-ish ground in Cyprus, I thought that'd give the US a bit of an advantage. But I don't even know who's expected to start for us today.

That's the plan, lump. I have no shortage of friends. I can do this as long as they continue offering them.

I max every play. Literally. If they're gonna cut you, they're gonna cut you.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

I like these 4 SOG plays the best today:

NYR O33.5 (-120)

CGY O27.5 (-120)
OTT U31.5 (-120)
PHI O30.5 (-120)

like this one a little:

MTL U28.5 (-120)

it's a small card, but Rangers and Flames probably the stronger of the four.

The rangers over is just an unwinable situation for the book. They can't post a line in the high 30's.

They've been slow on the trigger the past couple of days. Usually, they would move the line instantly after I hit it. All four totals are still sitting at Aaron's exact numbers. Even the juice hasn't moved. It took about two hours to budge yesterday.

 

[lumpy19]

Just wish my limit was $1K.

I realize you're excited but betting $300/pop you'll be done next week

Nah, they seem to be more tolerant lately. It took almost 3 months with my main account. With this one, it's been a little over a month.

 

[lumpy19]

LOVE that homer bailey o11.5 wins

 

[Raider Nation]

And again, what does it matter? Just find another GB.

Assuming your main account had some history...this account you just started blasting away on props?

It doesn't....and your check cashing question makes more sense now.

My household and culture is ALL about soccer. Never liked it. Enjoyed american sports a lot more.

Have to say, been watching it more last few years and find it pretty exciting.

Game translates well on TV.

 

[John Bender]

Any sides or over unders tonight?

I'm going to start drinking early and need to gamble.

I've watched like 2 games in my life and that was because our president told everyone they could leave work early to go to the bar and watch Germany play in some tournament

But doesn't something about the sport have to interest you enough to want to invest the time to come to appreciate it?

What got you started?

Plan to become millionaires:

Spoiler

1) Bet ML of whomever's playing 'Cuse

2) Take winnings, repeat.

you know what's great about soccer, no ####### commercials....for that alone I enjoy watching it. The problem is the timing, it's terrible for my schedule so I don't get to watch much.

 

[John Bender]

Never a soccer fan, but I'm fascinated by the EPL. I love the electricity in the stadiums and the Saturday morning matches that satisfy my fix for sports when no other sports are on.

Additionally, I love the promotion/relegation system they use. i find it fascinating. Especially when you see the full table and realize there are like 200 teams all who have a chance (not a big one) of being promoted up from some small soccer club into the Premier League.

Great set up. Should be done with a US sport. I guess I'm a Newcastle fan (sat next to a guy on a plane ride to Wales that loved them)

One thing I will say for anyone looking to give soccer a try.

Watch the Premier leagues games. Those are like exposing someone to Duke/NC caliber type of competition.

Trying to watch an MLS game is like would be like exposing someone to a Wizards/Pelicans game...yea it's the PRO league with professionals but :yuck:

 

[nittanylion]

Nice job, Winthrop backers!

Big South Tournament is being hosted by #2 Seed Coastal Carolina, fwiw...

Charleston Southern apparently is regarded as a dark-horse candidate to steal the Big South Bid. Despite their less than stellar record, they've been a tough out in February, playing close with the Conference's better Teams. Today they play a weak Campbell squad, who they should dominate, based on recent play. Charleston Southern -6.

I think the Patriot League is a 'Chalk Wednesday'. Playing ML and spread on all favorites, except Colgate, who could give American a run, but for the most part, this is a conference of have's and have-not's, and the have's are playing at home...

In order of preference:

#5 Army @ #4 Bucknell -5.5 / -250

#9 Lafayette @ #1 Boston U. -8.5 / -425

#6 Lehigh @ #3 Holy Cross - 8.5 / -425

#7 Colgate @ #2 American U. 6.5 / -290 *pass*

Still looking at Northeast and OVC...
