    Like I wrote earlier in this thread to you - if everyone had an attitude like yours, the masses would get walked over by the few that are in power.  Look back at the last eight years of this once proud nation's history to see what I'm talking about.

    Damn, sounds like that rigged game last night fucked you up every which way, but I'm glad to hear you recovered the money tonight.  And you made a great point about the huge difference that one stolen bet can make to our bottom line.

    Fuck yeah, it was.  And those that are brushing it off or denying it altogether are as spinless as they come.  Even guys who had the over knew the game was bullshit!

    Funny though. The commentators mentioned in the first quarter how these teams foul alot on any given night and love getting to line. Boy were they right about that Thursday night.

    I was on that over last night and won, but I knew there was something up when the 4th quarter started, I even posted about it.
     
    The one thing I can say is that you must play ALOT of Fixed Over/Unders because I always feel that I am on the winning side, and you are on the other, yet I still agree with fixes, if I win or lose.
     
     

     

    I've only complained about two games this season.

    You write that they discussed the situation in the lockeroom.  That is way out there IMO.  One rogue ref like Tim Donapoop cheating is one thing but to say an entire ref team is collaborating seems impossible.

      Maybe it was rigged maybe it was not.  I just saw the game and saw nothing suspicous.  The Jazz foul the most of any team in the league (I think?).  They shot horribly but got enough offensive boards to keep it close and draw alot of contact inside.  Plus Sloan left Korver on Smith which is the real reason the over hit as he was so overmatched.  Refs  also called the 4th quarter extremely tight in a close game with alot on the line.  Just my take.

    robertgould79, I don't doubt that there are guys who can win money by betting on overs.  Of course there are, you're one of them.  I, however, historically suck when trying to bet overs.  I am under 50% lifetime.  That's why I hardly bet them anymore.  The few I've done lately have all been because I tailed you (and thank you again!).

    It's funny Bator....I didn't have a penny on the game and was leaning hard on the Under myself...and I posted about how weird the fouls were and how fast they were coming at around the 3:00 mark in the 4th quarter. I hate to use the word "fix" as I've taken so many bad beats and tried to blame it on this out of frustration...but that game was crazy. The worst part was that half the fouls in the final minutes weren't even contact fouls to the ball handler....they were away from the ball fouls and we couldn't even see what the hell was going on. It was hilarious...the whistle blew every 20 seconds and even the players were like "What the Fuck"....kinda looking around to see who the foul was on.


    Just a very weird game all around.

    Hey Bator...I see people say you do this for a full-time living. Pretty crazy...how come you don't post plays ever? I see once and awhile you'll mention you're on a side during a game conversation..but rarely post a pre-game pick. I'd be very interested to see your handicapping style and picks someday.

    It's never made sense to me how any of us can tell each other that we're betting too much when we have no idea what each other's bankrolls are?  Eight grand might be a lot but it also might be a little.  You never know.  As for my bets last night, they were for $4,400 each, one on under 209.5 and the other on the second half under 109.5.  I spent the first half kicking myself for not betting enough!

    I have to side with MrBator on this one. I really do not understand how the cheating, lying, scamming referees don't infuriate more people. The game is suppose to "naturally" play itself out. There is nothing natural about an outcome that has already been decided for us. How is that okay with some of you? What ever happened to honesty and integrity?

    Why?  It's only three guys, all of them probably bitter to some degree that players much younger than they are are making truckloads of money while yelling at them all game long.  I'd want a little bigger piece of the pie myself!

    Yea but he was coming off the bench and only scored when Korver was in the game.  So he basically got all his points in 15 minutes
