Non-MMA Sports Betting Discussion - March 2016

thoughts on Berdych +5? or is it safer to play the over?

over definitely safer, cause he's never beating djoker 4 & 4, imo. you run the risk of the dreaded 6-1 3rd set against djoker if berdych manages a tight set win

f tennis, tho!

so salty from yesterday

days like that are the worst! but i have no doubt you'll make it up quickly

Kind of weird how Sasha is -400 right now, but Charlotte is only +110. I'm holding off on that match til the weekend in hopes of a line shift.

I'm leaning Undertaker. I just don't see him jobbing to Shane McMahon in his last match, which is the stipulation if he loses. But your reasoning is definitely valid, the brand split has been teased. Gonna hold off on this too until the weekend in hopes of a leak that shifts lines.

I see where your coming from...but it won't be Takers last match. First thing Shane will do on raw the next night is reinstate him.
Already big line movement on Shane....I know you like that lol

Considering this is WWE we are talking about, I wouldn't put it past them to go that route and make that stipulation completely worthless lol. Leadup to Mania has been sooooo garbage, been months since I watched more than 30 min of Raw and doesn't sound like i'm missing anything from what I read

Shane is getting bet?! Yeah if Taker hits +200 i'll be all over that.

I don't know what I'm doing w/o ya EZ, I bet on Simon b/c I'm a degen and an idiot (not a good combo). Never trust a man named Gilles, I guess.

Oh forgot to give you props for the Detroit play yesterday @iGnP. Well played sir. Followed on Hawks ml tonight since line was only 1 instead of the 2 and I live dangerously.

Hawks are -1.5 now at my book. Did you get them at dog odds?

Yeah got them at +103, I see they're down to -118 now. Right side of line movement again, nicely done. Thanks for the heads up.

Fingers crossed it hits

Ah shit... I did like Goffin. I was trying to be smart and chill for a day (aside from the monfils +2500 play and mandatary flyers bet).. But I live bet him ... So weird winning a match...

Sorry for your Simon loss

5d I just got Hawks at +103 on the ML too. Tailing, I like ignp's b/d of this one. Would be nice if Lowry sits (though Joseph is a capable backup) but even if he plays he's been shooting poorly due to that elbow.

Helwani is saying Aldo-Edgar at 200 for the interim. Tough fight to cap, is Aldo on the downslide?

Hard to say based off a 13 second fight, this fight should give us a more clear answer to that. But either way i'll be on Edgar

 

[SamHale]

Any reason why Golden State Warriors are only -4.0 tonight? That line seems like a gift but surely i'm missing something?

 

[iGnP]

Regarding Jazz/Warriors:

If the Jazz are gonna cover this game and potentially win, I think they'll have more success in the second half than in the first. I am probably gonna sit back and look to bet the Jazz in the second half with no pre game bets on the game. Jazz are too inconsistent offensively to trust the entire game but I think their tough defense could tire the Warriors out as the game goes on and we could get a favorable line if the Warriors start off strong

The books don't just give out gifts. With that being said, I was curious so I looked on various bball betting threads and the Jazz are a very public side tonight. Could be the books trying to bait some Utah money by setting a low line (doubt it, though)

 

[Medical Marijuana Man]

Clippers + Warriors

Won $150

Raptors

I just have to share this bad beat, i dont know if there's anything more ridiculous

Wizards-Kings game. I live bet the Kings at -10.5 when they're up like 12 or so in the fourth quarter. Fast forward to the end of the game. Kings up 16, give up a lay up with like 6.8 seconds left (up 14). game is all but over, all that needs to happen is the ball needs to get into play. Rondo commits a violation in-bounding the ball and proceeds to get two technical fouls for mocking the referee. Cousins also gets a technical foul. John wall hits 2/3 technical free throws (lead is now 12). then the wizards in-bound the ball to wall and he hits a three at the buzzer (kings win by 9; i dont cover).

seriously, this has to be a sign for me to quit betting lol
