    Great work .... but I too was also interested in if you break down how you do on totals, vs sides ...... for example my great friend Mac excels at totals in CBB, but is average at sides

    If you're betting on the worst teams every day, there is no guarantee you will profit on them just like any other sport.  You need to find value in the underdogs you take, and likewise, find the value in the favorites.  Too many people in here stick to taking dogs only, when you really should be taking almost an even mix of favorites/dogs.   Just my two cents, gl this year game.



    I'm not sure what planet you are on but I hit the Nationals at +250 or so a few times last year. I saw +300 plenty of times throughout the year. He didn't say bet every shitty team every day he is talking about finding value!

    How many +1500 NBA dogs hit this year? Look up how many favorites of -14 won SU???, never mind Ill do it for you...

    SO FAR this year favorites of -14 or more are 25-2 SU so good luck picking the 2 to hit the +1500!!

    However Dogs of +200 or more went 199-511 SU last year at an average price of +220. Which one is easier to predict?

    Wow I was just reading all the post and just thinking to myself "what a great post and Game even if everyone doesnt agree with everything or all your picks, you are greatly respected" and I can't remember the last time I was on covers and no matter what the topic is, there is always someone that talks shit, and here we have it. This is unreal, what was the purpose of your post Stever1? Who are you and what have you done? besides come in peoples thread and talk shyt. You don't have to agree with GAME, and GAME isn't on here bragging or trying to become a tout, so what's the purpose of trying to trash him? Totally uncalled for. But the more you live, the more you run into people that you just can't figure out. Thanks for the write up GAME. I've always viewed your posts and must be honest, have never quite liked most of your picks, but for some reason had the utmost respect for you, and now I see why. And the reason why I have never liked most of your picks, because I've always been that classic high fav bettor, you know the one Vegas luvs,  but you have definitely given me a different outlook on baseball. Thanks and good luck this season bro. And all the haters can kick ROCKS.

    just take every one!!!!!!

    $100/game

    2 wins at +$1500 each = +$3000

    25 losses at -$100 each = -$2500

     

    +$500!!!!

    How many +1500 NBA dogs hit this year? Look up how many favorites of -14 won SU???, never mind Ill do it for you...

    SO FAR this year favorites of -14 or more are 25-2 SU so good luck picking the 2 to hit the +1500!!

     

    just take every one!!!!!!

    $100/game

    2 wins at +$1500 each = +$3000

    25 losses at -$100 each = -$2500

     

    +$500!!!!

    For the first game of a series,  I think I saw a site last year which gave the umps about 10 before "post".  May have been DonBest but I am not sure.  BOL this year

    GameHunter,

    I am also interested in Matchbook.  Do you know if they take pre-paid (re-loadable) credit cards?  Also, would you get anything if I used you as a referral?  I heard Matchbook doesn't give bonuses on deposits, is that true? 

    Good luck with the MLB season!  Let's make some $$$$$$$.

    Not sure of teh point you were trying to make here, if you are saying not to play those dogs you gave a bad example, because at +1500, you are MAKING MONEY hitting 2 out of 27.  So I guess your point is you SHOULD play the big dogs?????

    I'm honestly not sure. Their customer service is helpful so give them a call. I don't think referral bonuses are given. If they are, have them donate it to a good charity instead of me.

    Sure if you want to play 27 games to win 2. What if the 2 dont win in the next 27 times? This is a bad play.

    My point was in baseball the +250 dog hits quite a bit more and that is considered a big dog in baseball.
