MY NBA PICKS.

Believe it or not, craps is not the only game in the casino. Savvy players have a back-up plan for when their craps game is off. If Heavy isn't winning at Craps you're likely to find him playing Baccarat, Blackjack, or even Roulette. If the table games aren't working out he may even take a cigar break in the high limit slot area for a little hit-and-run action. But just like craps - you have to plan your play and play your plan. If you have a question on slots, video poker, carnival games or any table games other than craps, this is the place to post. Let's hear about the games you play when you're not playing craps! What's your game? What's your strategy? How's that working out for you? Inquiring minds want to know!

Between charting and this thread, the only drama on this board!

Heck, house of orange the only drama here are jaime's earthquakes, hurricanes and choking on dinner. We gotta keep him alive so I can make some money. LOL.

I passed on the Heineken and went right to the Ron Zacapa rum.......

I got -5 from the M book (William Hill), tricky last 45 seconds as Doncic turned it over twice, 6 points does job, gracias :)

Everyone here, but Stations (-7) has OKC - 6.5, cheers, D.N8R

The on-line betslip builder for Rivers by me lists OKC as -7 for the spread.

I'll check it again when I'm there tonight and see if I can actually get through the betting process successfully this time.

Thanks again Jamie for posting up your picks like you do.

Goodmorning grinder,r_ventura,rickhem,dartnarth,and all members,

In the long run, their will be more Heineken nights then not.

Members, i am running a experiment to see if the game played in the NBA can be beaten in the long run.

So far the answer is yes.

So far, i find that if you only bet one team a night and the same amount of money/units, it can be beaten.

Comments please.

Luck at the casino.

No soda for me. After what the stock market did to me I am drinking Titos. What a brutal week.

I bought the Thunder down to 7 tonight.

I had appointments this morning so by the time I got to the book it was -7.5; I stuck with that vice buying it down to -6.5 at -130.
Had a good day at tables, so this is a bonus bet, DN8R

Hi Jaime1943

Hope youre doing well.
Your comment above "...So far, i find that if you only bet one team a night and the same amount of money/units, it can be beaten..."

Q1) Do you only wager one gm per night because you look at it as a : Good, Better, or Best ranking of your finalists?
So im guessing you only give us your 5***** pick? :D

Q2) Do you every have >=two picks that have the exact same ranking according to your strategy? If so how would you determine the top selection?

thx

All the best,
Tgold
All the best,

Greetings Tgold,

To me, this system is easy BUT is so hard to explain.

later on today, i will answer your questions more in detail.

The biggest thing you have to remember about Handicapping these games IS in the long run, and i am playing in the long run, the GOOD teams WILL beat the BAD teams, so i try to find a good game that a good TEAM will beat a bad team.

Some times a bad team will beat a good team, that's why i say only bet one game a day.

So far by just betting one game every day, i am up $1,820 dollars, lets take a player that can bet $1000 dollars every day, and can handicap like me OR better, he could make a good living at this game.

Luck at the casino.

jaime.
