Post-All Star Break NBA by ensign_lee

[ensign_lee]

Allrighty. I think the offshore environment has stablized a bit to allow me to post up at the books that I trust.

Still in the process of getting my money back offshore (in little bits at a time) for now, but have money at 5dimes after a western union deposit process that was surprisingly easy and hassle free.

Already one bet that lost (Minnesota Moneyline (+120) vs. Washington on the 20th), so I'll start my record here at 0-1.

YTD: 0-1
Units Won: -3.00

For tonight, I like the following games:

Orlando M/L (+115) (it's +110 right now, but hopefully 5dimes moves to match everyone else in a bit)
2 units at 5dimes

Minnesota +6 (-110)
2 units at 5dimes

Alanta +4.5 (-110)
2 units at 5dimes

Now, it gets interesting. Because I only have 4 units offshore at the moment, I have to do an 'if' bet to get action down on the above games:

If Minnesota +6 (-110)
1 units at 5dimes
IF Orlando M/L +110
1 units Orlando M/L

If Minnesota +6 (-110)
2 units at 5Dimes
IF Atlanta +4.5 (-110)

Orlando M/L
1 unit at 5Dimes

So if Minnesota doesn't cover tonight, I'm totally fucked. Because then I will have no action on Atlanta and only 1 unit on Detroit.

But nevertheless...gosh I hate having a limited bankroll offshore.

GL lee! Good to see you getting back on the horse

[ensign_lee]

Hehe. Thanks, zook.

Well, thanks to my lack of an offshore bankroll, my only win tonight won me $0.

Woot.

0-3-1
Units won: -7.00

I'm counting my shoulda been a win as a tie. Let this be a lesson. Keep enough of a bankroll offshore to hit up all your bets.

I've been very cold again. I think I'm 1-4 my last five, so yay... Feel free to take the other side. It'll probably make youmoney.

P.S. Is anyone reading this?

I'm watching you. Not a fan of picking the underdoog though. you can see my picks above on that site. Sadly I'm below, but it's good because it taught me not to bet moneylines <200.

[ensign_lee]

I'm saddened. You use that site instead of mine?

On a serious note, good to know SOMEBODY'S watching. I'm curious though, what appeals to you about that site? Could always use some user feedback.

[ensign_lee]

YTD: 21-19
Units Won: 16.66

Here is a detailed breakdown of my bets so far

Kudos to Ace-Ace and Snets who are neck and neck behind me and who could overtake me at any moment.

Still in the midst of my cold streak, so fading me would probably make you money right now.

Charlotte M/L (+100.94)
2 units at Matchbook

Sacramento +7 (+100.94)
2 units at Matchbook

[ensign_lee]

YTD: 23-20

Orlando / Milwaukee UNDER 199 (-118.37)
1 unit at Matchbook

Saw the line dropping at Pinny and already fallen at thegreek and hopped on it elsewhere as soon as I could.

[ensign_lee]

LA Clippers M/L (+135.24)
2 units at Matchbook

Would love to do a record recap and all, but game tips off like NOW!

Allrighty, here goes:

Orlando -12 (-110)
1 unit at BetJam

Pinnacle doesn't want me betting on Orlando, eh? Well, that's reason enough for me!

Allrighty, here we are, the NBA Playoffs. (GOOOOOOO ROCKETS!!!)
These are very exciting times, but remember: don't bet huge on a game just for 'action'. Have reasoning with your picks y'all!

---
For the first slate of games, here we go:

New Jersey 4.5 (-106.12)
2 units at Matchbook

Both Pinnacle and theGreek both are trying to shun action on New Jersey. Plus, I think New Jersey and Toronto are about equal as far as talent goes. That's good enough for me!

[ensign_lee]

YTD: 26-22

That Suns/Lakers game was INTENSE! It was very entertaining to watch.

Allrighty, on to my only bet for today's NBA Playoffs:

Dallas -5.5 (-110)
1 unit at BetJamaica

The main reason I'm making this bet is that every other place has this at -115 or even -120. Even Pinnacle is only offering this at -111. I think that Dallas will come out fired up and take care of business. Let's hope I'm right!

YTD: 26-23

Houston Rockets (+133.28)

Units Won: +16.97 units

Allrighty, for today:

We have Cleveland, a #2 seed, who swept their opponent during the first four games. Granted, it was a crippled Wizards team, but you can't really just discount it based on that. Plus, they've had tons of extra rest compared to the Nets, who had to spend lots of time and energy fending off a hungry Raptors team. Heck, they just played and won a 1 point game two nights ago.

So let's see if I can't blow my profit from the regular season now.

Because of the extra rest factor, I'm going to increase my units on this play...by a lot.

Cleveland -6 (+100.94)
11 units at Matchbook

[ensign_lee]

Correction: 5 units

[ensign_lee]

Bringing this back up to 11 units.

The Pinny lean was worrying me, but hopefully that's gone now.

[tannari]

hmm
