Gtown vs W. Virginia?
 
I need some solid opinions. My buddy wants 330/300 on Gtown plus 2... I dont have much of an opinion and might eat the bet for action... Who wins this game?

If you are on the fence and are just lookin for the action, book half and lay the other half off.

RockHardTen1985 03-16-2010 12:55 PM

Ok I guess I am a bookie for this guy through the Nit and Ncaa tourny...
He made 3 bets today and clearly I still have time to lay them off, what do you guys think? I gave him a $1000 a week limit, and do have the option to call anything in... This is what he took tonight, opinions?

William and Mary plus 8, $200
Winthrop minus 3, $50
Jackson State plus 22, $100

Untl he starts laying them off

randallscott35 03-16-2010 01:07 PM

Much for likely the guy betting through him goes on a 10-0 run and PG leaves town

Yea, but only taking 1 dudes bets could be disaster. What if he gets hot and theres no one else to fall back on? I wanna discuss the games he likes then decide if I should call them in or eat them... I GUESS ALL THAT MATTERS TONIGHT IS UNC, HES LAYING 220/200 IF HE DROPS THAT GAME HE CAN WIN THE OTHER 2 AND BE DOWN..... DISCUSS

DISCUSS THE DAM GAMES

kenny p 03-16-2010 01:10 PM

If your gonna book the plays, just bookem all. If you try to decide which to keep and which to layoff you will get killed. March Madness is when many gamblers just get absolutely ruined.. GL KP

RockHardTen1985 03-16-2010 01:13 PM

That was my original thought.

I will say that those are some pretty comedy games to be coming up with to be playing on a Tuesday, especially with the tourney starting on Thursday, where there is plenty of action all day.

LOL I thought that 2.... He bet Gtown the other night and pushed, then he dropped 170 on Sunday. He bet Minnesota for 200 he lost, Ga Tech for 100 he won and the Celtics for 50 and lost.... He owes me 170 tomorrow.

I couldn't name one player on any NCAA team so discussing the games isn't an option. But if you are going to lay off games do it strictly based on financials and where you want the money to be placed. Ignore any thoughts you have of where you think you can beat the guy who is placing bets with you. If you manage it properly and with the vig, you should be OK.

Take the action on UNC. W&M could beat them straight up. I don't get this line at all.

Sorry, read that backwards. I still think you should book his bets though overall.

Im going to, I kept all three. GO UNC.

RockHardTen1985 03-16-2010 08:14 PM

Come on Pine Bluff, lets close this out strong kids.....

RockHardTen1985 03-16-2010 08:42 PM

1-0 in my career as a bet taker.

RockHardTen1985 03-16-2010 09:35 PM

Come on UNC, strong second half kids....

RockHardTen1985 03-16-2010 09:51 PM

This ****ig team does not miss from 3, the one kid is 6-9 putting on a dam show.

So you have NC -8 right?

ateamstupid 03-16-2010 10:13 PM

If Schneider had come to play like this in the CAA title game, W&M would be studying its tournament opponent.

Scav 03-16-2010 10:13 PM

Ole boy is feeling it, showed where he was going and defender had 4 inches on him and he still drained.

W&M big guys have some decent skills, just lack the most important, quickness

Scav 03-16-2010 10:24 PM

Roy Williams looked like he had a heart attack after that shot

Scav 03-16-2010 10:25 PM

All you need is 4 FT's...!

Scav 03-16-2010 10:26 PM

I can see PG pacing his crib right now

Scav 03-16-2010 10:27 PM

Whoa!!

Scav 03-16-2010 10:28 PM

!!!!

RockHardTen1985 03-16-2010 10:31 PM

I'll take it man. I'm starting to like you....

No doubt. They are so crazy good when they're shooting threes. They were outscored 11-0 over the last 4 minutes when their big guy fouled out. Damn it, f*cking 2 losses in the final 3 minutes with leads for the CAA tonight. F*ck. I don't even want to see ODU's game now.

I like ODU alot in that game. ND is garbage. I have watched a bunch of there games. To me, they are the exact type that gets smoked in the opening round.

I like Louisville to beat Duke also. I think Cornell goes to Sweet 16

What do people know about Wofford?

Good teams, bad matchups. Wisconsin is not the kind of team they could knock off. And Cornell got totally hosed by getting paired with Temple- a team whose coach knows inside and out from his many years at Penn.

I agree with you- ODU has a huge advantage rebounding on Notre Dame and I think they win because of it. Vegas seems to agree with me, the number has been beat down to -2 already and I wouldn't be surprised to see it go to pick, which of course never happens in a 6/11 matchup unless the 11 seed is the real deal. This game is really an 8/9 game if you think about it, ND is overseeded by a couple and ODU underseeded by 1 or 2. Notre Dame is not strong on the defensive glass whereas ODU is #1 in the nation in offensive rebounding % and I fully expect them to dominate down low. On top of that, ND does not create turnovers (#343 in the nation) and that is probably ODU's biggest weakness. Finally, ND's biggest strength is it's overall offensive efficiency (#2 in the nation- 1.146 pts/poss, an absolutely superior number), which is negated by ODU's defensive efficiency (#7 in the nation, .881 pts/possession which is an absurdly low number.)

RockHardTen1985 03-17-2010 06:16 PM

Tonight he took...

Webber St plus 10.5 for $50

Memphis minus 6.5 for $100

Dayton minus 7.5 for $50

Last night he went 1-1-1, with a profit of $45



Webber St looks ok so far with 10.5

RockHardTen1985 03-17-2010 07:58 PM

He is 1-1 tonight so far and minus $5. His bigger bet is Memphis, I would love St. Johns to cover here, giving me a little cushion going into NCAA.
