*** OFFICIAL *** FFA WAGERING THREAD - Merry Christmas!!! (16 Viewers)

Today is some kind of weird gambling purgatory. All there is to bet on is a Wildcard Game with my favorite baseball team and a bunch of NBA Pre-Season games.

I clicked the withdraw button on all my sportsbetting accounts in anticipation of redepositing with bonuses tomorrow.

A dark, dark day...

 
The Major League Baseball Wild Card Game is a play-in game which was added to the Major League Baseball postseason in 2012.

Both teams lost yesterday so it will be the first time any team has attempted to win this game on zero rest. N=12 with the home team 5-7 SU 1±1 rpg in the seven losses and 8±2 rpg in the five wins. The games went 6-6 O/U. The games that went over the total saw the winner score six or more runs. The games that went under the total saw the winner score five or fewer. The twelve games were decided by an average margin of 4±2 rpg. sdql

Still think there’s value in Ser Pounce

 
The Rockies are starting freeland on three days rest. If the Cubs can take pitches early and work deep counts he may only last three or four innings. I would think on three days rest he can only go about 60 or 70 pitches

Freeland started 33 games this season and struck out an average of 5±2 per game - striking out at least 4 batters in 26 of his 33 starts. This seems like a really fishy line with the flat 4 juiced 70 cents to the over - especially when you can buy o4½ a lot cheaper if you shop around. Feels trappy. I'm gonna try the under.

Freeland strikeouts u4 +155

 
Brewers to win WS +850

Unfortunately I think they roll past the Cubs/Rox. Dodgers could be a tough series, but they are
going to hit regardless and that pen is dominant. I'll buy out when they face the Red Sox. Would
have played Red Sox/Brewers WS but it was only +950

 
under 7,5 cub rox 2nite

The UNDER is 40-16 (+20.5 Unit$, +36.6% ROI) in Kyle Freeland's starts the past 2 seasons. This includes 22-9 UNDER this year and 6-1 UNDER on low totals of 6.5 to 7.5.

Going to take a shot on the A's at +176

Lot of value on a team with a great bullpen, Sevy has been dreadful the last few months for the Yanks

 
What are you guys using for books these day? I have BOL which won't let me deposit which I still don't understand, and started using BetUS which I'm not real thrilled with.

I'm sure there are others that you guys are using...... All opinions appreciated

Teams starting a pitcher on 3 days rest in wild era are 23 games under 500. @MLBNetwork @VSiNLive

NitrogenSports you bet in BTC and offer the fastest payouts. No verification needed.

Betnow.eu I can confirm pays out fast, within 24 hours. Very responsive. You're not going to get as many props as Bovada, but they're willing to give you more rope to hang yourself.

Sportsbook.ag. My favorite book. They seemingly will never cut you on sides. Lowest I ever got cut to was $200 on quarter bets. They always pay though. Once they made me wait a week, but I was gouging them pretty badly at that point.

They offer a pretty sick BTC deposit bonus that got taken away from me a long time ago, lol.

Honorable mentions: Bovada (recreational book), 5dimes (####ty interface), Intertops (easy props, ####ty payouts)

Many years ago, BetUS was kind of scammy. I remember them giving me hell about making a withdraw.

They offer a ton of free plays though. They gave me $150 in free play this week alone for football. Them along with sportsbetting.ag /betonline.ag are good about giving you free money. BetUS is only a 5x rollover, iirc.

I've never bet on NBA Preseason but am willing to give it a shot. Cleveland has nobody. Their best players are JR Smith, Tristan Thompson, and Kevin Love.

I don't know if they're playing or who is actually playing in this game. But based on what I've seen, Brad Stevens is some type of coaching savant. He wants to win this game. He wants to build good habits.

Even his skeleton crew could beat the Cavs starters, who based on my experience I question will even play or show up.

Game is in Boston. Parquet floor. Travel. Etc.

 
***NAOYA INOUE 2u to win the WBSS 118 lb. tournament -165***

Caution, this will take approx 8-12 months to come due, hopefully closer to 8. It's an 8-man single elimination tourney, 3 rounds. Inoue kicks it off this weekend and should win without much trouble against Juan Carlos Payano. Likely to fight Zolani Tete next, who knocked out Sibiniso Goya with the only punch of the fight last year, but has nowhere near the ability that Inoue has, and then a likely final against Ryan Burnett, a very good up-and-coming Irish fighter.

It's a good field, but none of these guys are in Inoue's class.

Seems exactly like the kind of wacky nonsense that you'd have a good read on.

 
Cubs live (+115)

Was hoping to get a chance at plus money with a 1 run deficit. Johnny has had rough starts before
settling down a lot lately. Cubs got Freeland to go 19 pitches in 1st, Rockies pen will definitely be in
play sooner rather than later in this game. If Johnny can go 7, advantage Cubs.

 
Got a freind who is white hot with college football this year.  He’s 5-0 with his “Lock of the week” (he posted two last week).

His LOTW this week is Bama -34.5

I got Gendry.  He was 75-1 at one point and he had a bunch of bets roll in on him a few months back when they were writing the script.  Not sure how familiar you are with the show but “poetically” he makes a lot of sense.  Plus he was gone for 3.5 seasons and he just shows up near the end of last season?

Extremely familiar. I'm the nerd that has read the books AND watches the show.

I’ve heard they’ve shot multiple endings to keep even the cast guessing
