When you have to go out of your way to get 10 cent MLB lines - and that is considered to be the best you can get - that is really paddling upstream. Betting in to MLB with 10 cent lines is tough as hell. Cant imagine being able to do it.

I used to bet in to 1 cent (yes, 1 cent at MB) MLB lines. With commissions it used to work out to closer to 2 cents - but even at that - with the grind of MLB - it wasn't a sure thing.

10 cents is suicide IMO.

The day Matchbook died, part of me died as well.

Ill say this...for what i do, i have to watch the last 6 minutes of every game. And quite often, the kings scrubs close strong in blowouts. (They get blown out quite often) Hopefully for your sake, its within striking distance in the last 6 mins.

Karma???

Karma or not...

This game is fu**ing over!

I told this guy he doesn't know who he is fu**ing with in taking these sons a bitc*es. The have NO PRIDE!

He ignores it all.

It's like he thinks he Frank Sinatra.

He sings I did it MY WAY!!!

Yeah, you sure did.

You are in the process of burning your whole roll....YOUR WAY.

And at the end of it all what will you have?

A thread on covers that will disappear and two dozen youtube videos with 100 views among 10 billion others.

What a consolation prize!

It only cost ya 30 grand!

I sure hope he doesnt piss away years of saving in vegas in less then 2 months.
If you lose tonight, take what you have left, go find a smart mon ey manager and let him try to grow your money for your retirement in the future. Then go find another 9-5 job

Kings still could come back and cover, highly doubt it, but maybe.

A pro gambler would have watched how bad the kings were against the heat 3rd stringers and never dared risking 5k on them against one of nba's best teams. no way no how

Anyone who thinks the Kings are coming back to get within 11 is OUT OF THEIR MIND.

Write it down!

CG, plan on withdrawing yet another 5K for tomorrow's debacle.

Kings still have a good shot at a backdoor. Leave now and place these bets, and a small parlay.

Knicks +10

Suns +5.5

Pepperdine +14

BYU -9.5

Throw in the Knicks ML to the parlay as well. I'd say add the Pepperdine ML, but that might blow your mind

Did you know a $95 bet on the Knicks and Pepperdine ML parlay pays right at 5K .....

Add the Suns ML & U214 & BYU -9.5.....$25 gets you $15,000

The +11 is still is still very much in play. Based on the past couple of days Phoenix was down 30 and covered +11. Clippers were down 19 and covered +8.5.

Mayweather bet 450000 on

The backdoor is still in play, looking unlikely but I've seen this many times in basketball ( especially the NBA).

Oh it's over.

I've bet the Kings FOR YEARS.

No pride.

No hope.

No accountability.

And their best player hates his own coach.

Say goodnight baby.

This one is as dead as a doornail.

This is a FIFTY win Hawks team with the best record in the NBA against the hapless nothing Kings.

CG,

Get up off your knees. No amount of prayer is gonna get you inside this number.

Start capping tomorrow's slate to save this dumpster fire of a trip.

I had my backup plan. I'm grinding now with my 22K bankroll. I stated why I made this play I was dominating, until my fam came and was pi$$ed and wanted to take my shot to get back what I lost with them here. Took my shot didn't work out... No forget about it (if possible) and grind with my 22K bankroll. Rent not due to June. Paid 3 Months up front...
