JAN 23 Wednesday Card Tally
FAVE to DOGS (4-7) PUBLIC to FADES (3-8) WEDNESDAYS (since Jan 2, 2013) FAVE to DOGS (15-29) PUBLIC to FADES (14-30) PROPS* EXPERT PICKS went 3-1 today. Went 2-0 again today with DEN ATS and GSW ATS. 2-0 for the past 3 days, and 8-1 since Sunday. Again, this is just tallying numbers I've been noting. This does not conclude anything at all. It just assists me at times and adds to my leans every now and then. If someone out there can conclude anything from this data, I'm all ears. GL TO ALL.

hmm, you're right! nope, I'm not seeing a new trend, and if I do, I'll post 'em up quick. So far I'm posting what the numbers show. No BS.
Hey Mavin, if you could be so kind to post the trends that you have collated long before this, (for each day e.g. monday, tuesday...) of the week), I'd be very happy to test the numbers on it. From the time that I had been taking notes on this trends, I have been making good fortune. Having started this Sunday, I'm 6-1, and 2-0 for two consecutive days. Last week, I was 11-3. So, hopefully, this run continues and the trends I'm tallying will help us more. I have not been regularly posting my picks since I have a day job and capping is just a hobby for me. Just a recap my pks for today are DEN ATS and GSW ATS. BOL TO EVERYONE.

I really cant exactly recall where or who I heard it from, but they said that weekends, wednesdays and fridays are dogs/fades day..I'm not really sure about that so taking notes and tallying has been my way of checking if this is really what it is..

OKC@GSW +2.0
pk - GSW +2.0 IMO the bookies want us to believe that since GSW was beaten by LAC, and OKC won against LAC, ergo OKC wins at GSW? hmmm.. OKC is playing its 3rd game in 4 outings. PLUS the 2 games they played was against (IMO) elite teams. One of those match-up even ended up in an OT loss. Fatigue must be setting in.. RLM angle is also seen in this match up. Public pounding OKC, and still the line moved in favor of OKC. Classic recipe for the RLM. As I have tallied in my personal notes, RLM resulted in a 10-4 ratio. Out of 14 times I've applied this theory, I won 10 times and lost the rest. Not bad. I guess I'd be applying it one more time. BOL TO ALL! BTW, I only write about ATS trends, I've never played totals. But if someone out there could educate me about connections or trends of the totals in relation to spreads, I'd be very happy. THANKS!

As promised, here are the stats I've collated this past few days
MONDAY (1/21) - Martin Luther King's day - HOLIDAY - Monday was said to be a FAVE day, but since it's a HOLIDAY, I deemed it more fit to the weekend trend of DOGS and FADES day. FAVES to DOGS (ATS ONLY) 7-1-1 PUBLIC to FADES (ATS ONLY) 7-1-1 TUESDAY (1/22) - Said to be a FAVE day. - Let's see the trend... FAVES to DOGS (ATS ONLY) 3-1 PUBLIC to FADES (ATS ONLY) 3-1 WEDNESDAY - Said to be a DOGS and FADES day. - For all the expert pick lurkers out there, expert picks last Wednesday turned out 0-3 - here are my picks and short write ups DEN@HOU -2.0 pk - DEN +2.0 (2u) This is not my write up but damn I've got to share this one. Really well written. Go see for yourself. This is from "swolesbee" "These are the top 2 teams in the NBA as far as pace goes. Transition is the name of their game for them. Neither team has much of an offensive post presence and neither team is very effective in a halfcourt setting. The difference here is that Denver has very good transition defense(5th in the NBA), Houston does not(26th). When both teams have to run some offense Denver actually is more effective than Houston (I will rarely ever get to say that about Denver). If Houston can't score on the break all they do is try to break a team down off the dribble(Iso plays with Harden), or they run a pick n roll. They really don't have any threats with the roll man and most of their pick n rolls or pick n pops are designed for the ball carrier(Harden or Lin) to get their own shot. Teams are starting to figure this out though and as a result the Houston offense is really struggling lately. Denver matches up-very well because as I mentioned they play great transition defense but also because they are really good at defending the ball handler in the pickn roll. They are top 6 in the NBA in all 3 of these phases: transition defense, isolation plays, and defending the pick n roll ball handler. Denver also has 2 other HUGE advantages. The way to beat Denver is to slow the pace down, make them play half court offense, box out their bigs, and attack them with a low post presence. Houston absolutely has no chance at doing any of that." https://www.covers.com/postingforum/post01/showmessage.aspx?spt=22&sub=101539315&page=1 - I also noticed that the Reverse Line Theory is applicable in this one. Public pounding on HOU, and the line moved from -2.5 to -2.0 still in favor of HOU. hmmm.. Reverse Line Theory tallied (in my personal notes) at 10-4. Took DEN right away. CONT. ON ANOTHER PAGE... |

SAC@NOH -6 pk - SAC - Same thing with the IND-MEM matchup. Line moved in favor of NOH so I picked SAC. That simple. HOU@CHA +7 pk - HOU - Line moved in favor of CHA. Picked HOU. MIN@ATL pk - ATL - There is a slight movement in favor of MIN. Picked ATL. BRK@NYK -3.5 pk - NYK - There is a very slight increase in the line in favor of BRK. Picked NYK. SAS@PHIL +6 (POD) pk - PHIL - Line movement favors SAS. Picked PHIL in this matchup with 1unit wagered. - Line moved for SAS in spite of the public betting on SAS. PHI enjoys the home court advantage, PLUS a revenge factor angle. This also has the FATIQUE FACTOR THEORY, SAS playing 3rd game in 4 outings. I was not able to read the other games so i'll stick with this. AGAIN, this is only for the sole purpose of testing if this trend is applicable or not. The picks I have made does not take into account other factors so as to make this experiment a control of other settings to come. It is also a MONDAY, and last week I observed that FAVORITES won and covered most of the card. PS. Hopefully, no one ends up bashing me for this. LOL Once again, whatever ur picks are, BEST OF LUCK. So far, 6 games have been played and 3 more to go. The tally shows the following: MARTIN LUTHER KING DAY - Monday/Holiday RP Approach 1win-3loss-1push (sas@phil still ongoing) - this approach is not that useful as I thought... Dogs to Faves ratio 4dogs-1fave-1push Consesnsus 4faders-1public-1push standing today: IND@MEM - won 1u SAS@PHIL - won 1u 2-0 today

If we put the MONDAY factor away from the equation, the reverse psychology is still played. It just so happened that 4 favorites and 2 dogs came out from this experiment. For what it's worth, the results of today's card will be put on the holiday/weekend list and not on a monday trend.

Thanks MAVIN.
As an additional info on this experiment I'm doing, I'm leaning on 4 FAVES and 2 DOGS. Plus the MONDAY FAVE DAY angle. If this turns out well, MONDAYS will definitely be a day! OOPS. No jinxing just yet! Will tally the findings after today's games.

Just a quick observation. Been keeping tallies of discreet trends over the past week. Noticed that underdogs win/cover most of the time during weekends, just like last night. Monday last week, I also noticed that all the favorites, except MIA, won and covered. Hmmm. Any thoughts on this would be very appreciated. :)

So far, favorites have been covering all the games today except for MIA. Just 2 days ago, underdogs have also covered all games except for MIA giving a blowout.
Just my thoughts

I will definitely update the tally on those theories every now and then. My bookie only plays ATS games so covering every game is a must for me to bank in goodies.
RLM (4-3) TTG (4-1) FFT (5-0) Again, no single theory is absolute. These will only help us in making wiser decisions. GOODLUCK TO ALL!

SAC -5.0 (my bookie)
FATIGUE FACTOR - CLE is winded up for sure. 4th game in 5 days. Played against LAL last night and was given a blowout. PLUS SAC rested and fumed to win coming from being given a blowout too. SAC NEEDS this win to get going again. Nonetheless, whatever your picks, may it be the Seattle Supersonics, BEST OF LUCK!

Here's a little contribution of mine. Hope it helps
For the past few days, I have been tallying and tailing games according to some "theories" I have learned on this thread, other threads and some personal observations. First I'll state and describe the theories, then I'll state the How to win part and lastly, the tally how it went the past few days (about a week). Please do note that the tally is not my standings/wagers, but rather the game results as a whole. I study the line and use these theories in choosing winners. If it wins then 1-0, it it loses, then 0-1.So here goes... (hope this doesn't confuse anyone ) Reverse Line Movement Theory This is when an (obvious) underdog and a (obvious) favorite is set-up in such a way that the line moved in favor of the favorite despite the heavy public betting on the favorite. They say that this line movement attracts the bettors to wager on the side which the line (movement) favors, so as to make Vegas "richer" by making the underdogs win/cover the game. How to win? They say that betting on the underdogs makes winners most of the time. This is where the saying "fading the public" comes from. The tally (4-3) The TRAP Games This is when a line is called "fishy." For example, OKC@WAS +1.0 Obviously, people will jump on OKC, sleep, and then wake up as winners after the game. This is pretty self-explanatory. This are the type of lines where the spreads does not actually conform to what people perceive as fairly set spread. If the line stinks, then it's fishy indeed. How to win? Go with the underdogs! WTF BUT WHY?!! Let's go back to the OKC@WAS +1.0. FOR VERY OBVIOUS REASONS, people will bet on OKC. If all turns out well, the consensus will show about 70%-90% of bets on this side. For you to understand this, let's say that you are the bookie. As the bookie, what side do you want to cover? The favorites?..then pay them ALL the BIG BETS they wagered? Or have the dogs win and get that 70%-90% bets from the public? The tally (4-1) Fatigue Factor Theory This is when a team is playing its 4th game in 5 days, 5th game in 7 days,etc. This also applies to 4 road games back to back. Well, you get the picture. When one team is rested, and the other is winded up, expect for a let down. How to win? Well, go for the rested ones. Simple. This Theory is tricky, but (personally) effective. Look for teams that have played 4 games in 5 days. Look also for those teams that played 2OT the night before...those that played with the MIA, OKC and LAC in 3 days straight..even a well rested WAS will kill any team that is fatigued. The tally (5-0) The theories stated above are NOT FACTS and does not apply to ALL games. OKC are called road warriors and the fatigue theory wont make you winners against this team. RLM does not work all the time, favorites are called favorites because they can crash teams if they wanted to. And lastly, TRAP games may not be a trap after all. But if used wisely and backed up with a good mind, I'm pretty sure that every now and then, these will make some of us winners. BOL TO ALL! p.s. Thanks MAVIN
