GL Brackson with that pick! But I gotta tell you I live here in Portland and this is the toughest place to play in the NBA. These fans are Basketball crazy. Even though LA is out for a few games I don't know but hey you're the guy that's won 20 in a row and you seem to have a feel for things so I'm hoping you're right on this one. I may live here but I'm not a Blazer Fan. At any rate good luck on this $25K pick my man!

Can't believe this guy has reach 20wins with making a pick every day, getting to 20wins is impressive, but doing it while making a new pick every single day is incredible, wtg man hope you get that 21st win, I'm going with your pick for W5 myself.

@pana, someone else already suggested that, and it is a wonderful idea. You're both correct, i just don't have the money. It's an incredible opportunity to be in this position, and if it's not meant to be, i'll be happy to win the $1000 i've already earned without having to risk anything.
@a few others, the pick scares me as well. May end the day up $25k, may also end the day wondering what i was thinking. But that's the nature of the beast. With me or against, at W1 or right on my heels, i wish you all good luck today with your streak picks as well as your real wagers.
Off to take the dogs to the park before work to get some energy out for all parties. Please wish me luck with the heart rate, nausea and uncontrollable shaking.

My gut tells me you're going to win the 25k today. Boston +7.5 seems scary as hell cause they haven't beaten any western conference teams on the road since the 2012-2013 season but I see this as a 4 point win for Portland at the very best. Which is enough to make you 25k richer. Good Luck to everyone today who take the celtics. I'll Probly be on it myself for $1500-$2000. Let's all cheer for Bronson. GO CELTICS!!!!!!!!!

thank you all for the kind words and the well wishes. they are very greatly appreciated. taking my mind off all this for an evening with a much-anticipated dinner and ben howard concert with the mrs. hopefully the basketball gods are kind to me for another evening, but if not i still appreciate all the love. good luck to everyone participating this evening.
Man, I am with you, but I think you must bet some money on Portland, so if Boston loses you will have $$$ anyway.

congratulations but why dont' you bet 10k on the opposite bet?you will win mathematically
Completely agree..beg..boorow or max out a cash advance for at least 5k..been in that position before waiting for a Sunday night NFL to complete a parlay for 18k..put 5 on the other side to guarantee some cash!! Its not very often u can walk in a casino and guarantee 5k profit... Short term loan..pay back the interest..just sayin..
G luck!!!!!

@TEEA, whatever you're feelin. I don't have a copyright on the pick, so publish it wherever you want.
@people that want me to hedge, i get it. I majored in finance and i work for a company that hedges 100+ different commodities to make sure they remain as stable as possible. I'm quite familiar with the concept. I'm also american, which means it's not terribly easy or convenient for me to put money into my wagering account. so i'm not interested in raising the suspicion of my bank and the local or federal authorities because someone who was previously a regular schmuck suddenly withdraws 5-10k and takes it to the sketchy food depot to western union it to his "friend" in central america to get it into my book today and place the wager. When you are one win from $25k, by all means, do what you want. But i've stated several times that i'll be thrilled with the $1000 i already have if that's all i end up with, and that sentiment isn't going to change just because i'm one win away instead of three or four.
