    Getting Holm cheap at -310 imo, if my Friday plays out good I'm prob gonna take holm. Taking away from McGregor fight, -550 last I looked, just too much juice

    I'm seeing -320 & -485 on my side....thinking the same thing here, if today pans out like it hopefully will, I may throw a little some thing on Holm later.

    First time poster just looking to add some value.

    As a few guys have mentioned Wich St is a solid play today. My $$$ play however is Wich St -9 1H.

    The Shockers rank 1st in the nation in 1H scoring margin at +9.5 and score almost 37 points 1H but their last 3 games they've averaged 42 points. Loyola is almost dead last in 1H scoring at 28 and they have a negative .7 margin for the season. Not to mention their Last 3 games they've had a negative margin as well. It's s big number but I agree with others that the Shockers will get out To a big start and continue that thru the game.

    BOL all.

    HORNETS -3 over Indiana. Hornets are on a roll since the all star break and have won 8 of 10. Indiana is a middling 5-5 over the past 10.

    The Hornets are finally a healthy team (less MKG out for the season and Spencer Hawes) and Courtney Lee is starting to get more minutes. The guy is a pro and while he does not rebound like MKG, he's a far better scorer....and a good defender. The Hornets are coming off of two blowout wins over Phoenix on Tuesday and Philly on Wednesday where the minutes were distributed all the way down the roster to guys that never usually see court time. Al Jefferson is filling in nicely for Spencer Hawes, chipping in with 19 points in 19 minutes on Tuesday. Jefferson is really a role player at this point in his career, but he can still give offensive minutes.

    The Hornets should be well rested after a less than stressful week, yet they only lay 3 points? Looks like a bargain to me!

    Hornets -3.

    Jong Ajax have conceded 2+ goals in 11 of 13 road games. Almere City have conceded 2+ in 7 of 13 home games.  

    After their big over earlier in the week Jong Ajax is now 12 out of 14 with 3+ goals.  Almere City are also an impressive 20/26 in 3+ goal games.  

    I like the fact that neither team has a lot to play for as this should lead to an open game...no real reason to play tight defense.  Almere had an 11 goal affair the last time out but I don't want to get too greedy and will settle for 4.

    Another highly juiced game but I'm willing to lay it. 

    $$$$ Pick: Almere City vs Jong Ajax over 3 (-127)


    What site would have this? I don't think it's on bet dsi.

    If I thought this concept could actually make money in any other sport - Soccer, NBA, NHL, MLB - I would keep it going for sure.  I have results that include thousands of results in all those sports, and none of them have made money in this format.  Also, the thread was kept going after I stopped each year by someone on CBS and I don't think the results were good.


    I vote for us working together and let's see-it's different people hopefully in here-we should keep in CBB so you keep a lot of the idiots away..I for one am very good in NFL btw

Over half of Donaldson's rounds at Doral the last 3 years have been par or better and 4 that weren't came on the weekend. Guess we will find out in 6+ hours.


    I meant no disrespect on your pick brotha, just wanted to give you my 2 cents. Our picks arent even against each other so I want you to get the W as much as I want mine to win. BOL, so far you're boy Donaldson is doing work ;)

    I am going to be playing the Southern Illinois vs Northern Iowa Over 132.  I am not making it a $$$$ because of the great defense Northern Iowa has been playing but I do think this total is about 4 points too low.  Season average in both meetings was 136.5. I also like Northern Iowa in this match up but I won't be putting a wager on it as numbers show this line should be -4 and my book has it at 6.5.  Good Luck

    I'm seeing -320 & -485 on my side....thinking the same thing here, if today pans out like it hopefully will, I may throw a little some thing on Holm later.



    I just checked my site again. -530 McGregor, and -310 holm. I actually think Diaz is a live dog if he tries to take this fight to the ground, and make it ugly. And by ugly I mean doesn't stand toe to toe and try and trade with McGregor, bc that will be all McGregor, just too much movement. Diaz and his extra wide boxing stance will be no match for mcgregors stand up. But if Diaz tries to make this an ugly grappling fight he is a live dog. But then again we know the Diaz brothers aren't geniuses and they are ballsy egomaniacs, so my guess is he is gonna try and trade with McGregor and fight standing up. If I weren't a huge McGregor fan I would lay some money on Diaz.

Loyola is almost dead last in 1H scoring at 28 and they have a negative .7 margin for the season. Not to mention their Last 3 games they've had a negative margin as well. It's s big number but I agree with others that the Shockers will get out To a big start and continue that thru the game.

    BOL all.



    Brutal push here - Up 14 with around 2 minutes left and that kid hits 2 3's (one from steph curry range)....Even still you have a chance to cover and the guy misses the second FT with 15 seconds left....even STILL you have another chance to cover on a last second 3 that goes in and out! Haha

I also like Northern Iowa in this match up but I won't be putting a wager on it as numbers show this line should be -4 and my book has it at 6.5.  Good Luck


    Agree with what you said about Northern Iowa.  I really like them to win here but the bookmakers got this one right making the number -6.  If this was a number I could reasonably take down to -3 it would be a play for me....will likely just play it at -6 smaller for some early action

    FRIDAY 3/4/16 $$$$ PLAY

    TODAY'S PLAY COMES FROM THE BIG 12

    TEXAS AT OKLAHOMA STATE
    19-11          12-18

    OK STATE HAS LOST 5 IN A ROW AND TEXAS IS COMING OFF A HIDE TANNING BY KANSAS. I LIKE THE HORNS CHANCES OF BOUNCING BACK MORE THAN I LIKE THE POKES STOPPING THEIR LOSING STREAK. HORNS NEED TO GAIN SOME MOMENTUM HEADING INTO THE BIG 12 TOURNEY, (WHERE THERE IS ANY OF 4 OR FIVE TEAMS WITH A LEGIT SHOT TO WIN IT) I THINK THAT MOMENTUM STARTS TONIGHT

    $$$$ PLAY

    TEXAS -4

    My $$$$ play is on Elon -4.5

    1.  They have more points per game
    2.  They have better field goal %
    3.  They have better rebounding %
    4. Drexel has only won 2 away games the entire season
    5. Elon has already beaten Drexel at Drexel's home already
    and they will do it again at Elon's own home.
    6. Don't think -4.5 is to much to win by.

    This game is being played on a neutral. Just a heads up.

    I'm still gonna play it.
