my personal style is motivation--- revenge, too much travel, time zone hopping, poor weekday teams, etc--- that is a style that fits well with p

Im more of a situational bettor, i have the uncanny ability of reading lines and pick maybe 8-10 that really stick out to me then i go from there and cap each one individually. I too read some peoples threads on here that I think have some great insight and if it matches i hammer them. I dont play to many big full games every day, maybe 2 or 3, but do excel in 1st qtrs over the last 6 years, and 2nd halfs have been good to me too, ac and I have found a special 2nd half play called an Almond Joy(which we named) that has hit at a 75% clip over the last 2 years, no systems, just reading lines and watching juice movement is the key for me, it has lined my pockets tremendously over the years along with my full game plays. I also use travel, revenge and motivation like yourself..I have no problem with anyone personally in this thread, I love to see people win and help whoever I can along the way..GL..

I've been wondering about "Almond Joy." I know it's a good thing, but didn't really know what the heck it was.

POOL, look into these 2 games:

Stanford (-3) at USC: is something fishy here? USC is really not very good and only has a few scoring options. i know you are all talking about the UCLA UNDER but this could be a very easy play with the limited scoring options. i think this game goes UNDER and the game ends up being played in the 50's

Chicago State at UNLV (-31): solid thrashing here. i am not sure how UNLV does not cover this game with their type of play and being at home. the last time Chicago State got this exact line they were playing Notre Dame and lost by 37 points. they have also lost by over 40 against Ohio State which has even less scoring than UNLV.

just my two cents.

lastly, in the NBA, the SPURS will be victors tonight, it would shock me if it happened any other way. the Knicks are a mess with injuries, Stoudamire back, their starting lineup not sound, etc...sure they have Melo and J.R. Smith but the Spurs feast on teams when they can smell blood, and the Knicks are bleeding right now.

thoughts are appreciated...

ALMOND JOY HAS NUTS

.....MOUNDS DON'T.

I got a feeling K-State keeps it close tonight. Oregon's defense is better than it might appear on paper, but they are on the field so much that they are bound to give up points. If K-State can string together some nice scoring drives, the could really wear our the UO D. KState and under has got me thinking. Might tease it up though, since the ship sailed on the nice under total already.

I know the charts disagreed earlier but I really like Cal Poly tonight. First home game in conference and they get the defending Big West Champs (not the same team as last year at all). Seems like a situational spot for Cal Poly to come out fired up. They also rank very high in the assist to turnover ratio this year and have shot the ball much better than LBSU. Also taking into account that Cal Poly has played a gauntlet schedule so far (roadies - TCU, UCLA, St. Mary's, Nevada, Santa Clara, Washington) and they have been competitive in each one. LBSU has played a tough schedule as well, but they have been absolutely thrashed in some games. I could see this as a ten point route. If anyone else has any insight on it it would be greatly appreciated.

POOL, about UNLV, they really don't play their bench as much. they keep just walloping teams with their starters so they usually all have good stats which is also why UNLV is a top scoring team and say someone like Ohio State is less so. obviously competition plays a part as well.

the O/U in that Stanford/USC game just went up and is now at 127 from the aforementioned 126. I'm just saying...also a trend towards the UNDER if I can remember correctly. Ugly type of game usually favors lower scoring.

FRAUD, as for Denver/Minn, i really would like to see if Lawson gets cleared to play. Minny played last night and rolled over like i thought they would, was a tough spot for them. they are tired and just not as good on the road against faster paced teams. if you have ANY bit of liking for DENVER, play them NOW. once Lawson is cleared to play the line and O/U will go up. trust me.

What I think is the best bet for value if you will tonight.

Oregon - .5

Under 81

Spurs + 4.

Teased 500 to win 750

advice please....I don't know anything about line movements
re:the Montana St. game, would you advise buying the extra point now that the game is a pick, or not bet the game because the points changed?
