    Ill tell you how to win.  Deposit about $2000 in your account.  Follow Matrixxx plays of the day, Lawstyle, Airforce, and Kindergartencapper, wizardsinfos 1st halves (he's 17-0), and wussieman choose 3 of their plays you feel comfortable with and play them at $100 a play, then parlay the 2 strongest plays in your opinion for maybe $20 or whatever you can afford.  Don't chase your losses and dont put your whole bankroll on a game because you'll lose.  Then if you have some extra time and your home, follow jsnots halftime picks, play his bolded and underlined picks for maybe $50 (play about 2 of those at most a day). 

    You should get a good return on your investment.  If you win 20 more than you lose playing 90 games a month (3 per day), you'll profit a good $1500-$2000 per month in the long run.  Increase your bets as your money increases and don't stray from the system

    g/l

    p.s.  DONT CHASE

    I hope the spurs play the pistons and the NBA finals is at all time ratings low,    of course if it was boston v la probably one of the  highest.   I have stopped paying going to nba games years ago, spend 100-150 dollars for a night of pro hoops was so not worth the entertaintent value for me.  i have more fun spending 8 bucks and sitting outside watching minor league baseball.  FUCK THE NBA  hate it.
