Gonna pull trigger on Peli's while i can get -1 hosting the Hawks.



Hawks missing a roster tonight.

Pelis No Zion nor Ingram.



Total down 11.5 off open, sits at 212.5.



Close to 70% of bets coming in Atlanta yet line swung from ATL-2 to Pelis-1 giving us reverse line movement confirmation.


NO Pelicans -1 -110 (Best line @ Bet Stars)



Personal Trends: Won 3 of 3 wagers last 2 nights (VAN ppd) posted in NHL forum.

Lakers team total ov 104.5 -110

Since Lebron James injury Lakers tend to score well vs opponents with low ranked defenses while quite the opposite is true against teams with good defenses they have problems getting to 100.




Streaks: 1 of 1 cashed yesterday. Noel in foul trouble early resulting in reduced minutes, and somehow he pulls it out. I also faded the Knicks live leading at the half because they cant seem to maintain a lead against anyone. When you cant enjoy rooting for your team to win, you can feel dirty and be a little bit richer by fading them at the half.

Anyone interested in futures picks?

A little while ago I made several bets on the finals matchup being the Nets Vs. Lakers. I also made individual bets on Lakers winning the Western Conference and the Nets winning the Eastern Conference.

Does anyone else like to make futures bets? I feel like I have had wayyy more success on futures than individual games.

Futures bets can be cool and provide hedging opportunities when youre close to winning them. However they often offer poor odds. A team like the NY Jets should be 1000-1 to win the Superbowl but no one wants to post that as Brady could decide at any second that he is going to play for them.

Also, Nets played the Wolves on April 13 instead of the 12th, breaking my bet. Extra day of rest for the Nets to regroup. Nets > Wolves (10/15)
