*** OFFICIAL *** FFA WAGERING THREAD - Merry Christmas!!! (4 Viewers)

saw any idea on 

home teams playing in EST on Sunday Night baseball who are away in an different time zone or same time zone the next day?

 
Currently leaning Q1 - Cavaliers / Celtics O53.5, -110.

The Cavaliers spreads are just plain whack. Q1 -7 and 1H -11.5. The lowest the Celtics scored in a quarter last game was 24, so let's pencil them in for that:

Celtics: 24
Cavaliers: X

So, if that spread is going to hit you'd need the Cavaliers to score 31 points to push and 32 points to win.

Celtics: 24
Cavaliers: 31 or 32
Combined: 55 or 56 > 53.5

Sorry about your Ducks, gussy.

Not sure if anybody tailed after these posts, but had my biggest win in awhile with the Preds winning the West.

FWIW, I did throw some money on the Ducks at those odds so I was going to be happy either way in this conference finals.
:hifive:  Hell yeah bud. I didn't have the snazzy +1600, but opened up sunwager today to hopefuly get a good number with the Cavs and was greeted with a nice bump with the balance.

And yeah, sorry Gussy. if it makes you feel better i seem to have some money on the Ducks too

I think CLE comes out ready tonight - looking at both Q1 and 1H lines.  Game 3 they were up by 20, bored and did not respect the Celtics at all. I think they step on their throat tonight early and don't give them the chance to come back.

-7 for Q1 is pretty steep. not sure i can hang with that, good luck though

They don't give us time zone, I wish I had it. I have a "fade a team  on Monday after a > 7 game road trip that ended Sunday night." That's July 24. But that's all the Sunday night stuff I have right now.

It'll hit $3,000 in the next 3 weeks.  With the supply and demanded inversely related I think we are at just the beginning of the exponential gains.

 
Editorial comment about a play last night:

If you as a book are going to offer the Warriors to win the NBA Finals at -260 to -300, what sense did it make to set the line of the 3rd quarter last night to:

Q3 - Warriors ML, -143

You're giving me a heavily chalked line for them to beat Cleveland in 4 games out of 7 but give them less chance to WIN the last quarter their starters will be playing before the Finals themselves? Against a broken San Antonio team? Soft.

 
[redacted]

Kyrie Irving ends up dribbling the ball out at the end of the 4rth quarter. The 2H under hits! STONE COLD, STONE COLD, STONE COLD.

F5 - Orioles, +100

Taking the home team at even money with one of their best pitchers on the mound. Berrios (opposing pitcher) gave up 3 runs through 5 innings against Baltimore last year.

Tillman has not given up a HR yet this year.

Berrios isn't close to the same pitcher he was last year. Using Berrios' last years numbers in handicapping is a terrible mistake. Not saying you won't win this bet, just pointing out your TERRIBLE logic. Also, TIllman has pitched all of 15 innings this year. He's not super HR prone, but that stat doesn't mean anything.

Any explanation here for us, you used up a whole paragraph on my "TERRIBLE" logic but then just dropped a line.

Show me how it's done, please.
I didn't know an explanation was needed. Berrios looks like a totally different pitcher this year, has given up 4 hits and walked 2 in his first 2 starts (15.3 IP) after dominating AAA AGAIN. He's one of the top young arms in baseball and looks like he's ready to make his move to front line starter status. Tillman has been decent at home, only thing that scares me is that Camden is a bandbox and it's certainly possible that Berrios comes back to earth, I just don't see it in this spot. Nobody in the O's lineup really scares me right now. I think if this goes over it's because the Twins get to Tillman, not the other way around. Both of their bullpens are middle of the road and I'd rather trust the starters F5 than worry about the pens blowing my under late. I don't know. Felt right. Was that what you were looking for. Look dude, I appreciate the thought process when it makes sense. I tailed you on GS FH the other night because there was some actual thought to it. I don't think you know very much about baseball and when you throw things out like "Berrios gave up 3 in 5IP last year against O's" that pretty much proves my point. Berrios came up last year after dominating AAA and was a trainwreck. He still is one of the top young arms in the game and he looks NOTHING this year like he did last year.
