    MLB buys for 2022

    Recap: 1-1, -$1 Record: 10-11, -$137 Yesterday, I ignored two norms I use in betting on any sport: the "Johnny-Come-Lately Jinx" and the "I will not bet games that aren't from one of my spots!" rule. What I call the "Johnny-Come Lately Jinx" is where I have a team that qualifies as a spot to...

    NBA Season 3

    MLB buys for 2022

    Recap: 1-0 Record: 9-10, -$136 Got a nice W with Az yesterday. Yesterday I wrote: "GP is now 14-19, -$373. Is this spot going to get back in black this week? Is it time to ride a few of them?" I was looking at this play's performance last year, and wondering if it was a fluke winning season...

    NBA Season 3

    Yeah, just like I said yesterday, kicking myself for not taking the Over. But, I have a few disciplines in buying, and one is to not buy a bad line. If you're going to win, part of it is buying smart. Yesterday, smart would have been to buy the Over when it opened. But I thought it opened high...

    MLB buys for 2022

    Passed on "9-losses-in-a-row" Oak in the GP spot and as expected they sucked, scoring just 2 runs. But the Tigers sucked worse, scoring zero. Record: 8-10, -$256 GP is now 14-19, -$373. Is this spot going to get back in black this week? Is it time to ride a few of them? I'll take it game by...

    NBA Season 3

    Lowell, I thought so too, but with four early fouls, Paul was unfortunately removed from the equation. I'll take a split and be happy because that game had "Over" written all over it after 62 pts in Q1 and 124 at halftime, leaving just 91 pts needed (45.5 per quarter) in the second half to kill...

    MLB buys for 2022

    Recap: 1-1 Record: 8-10, -$256 Hit with LAD (+$100) missed with TB (-$100) where I was 2 outs away from the money when they gave up a game tying HR in the 9th and went on to lose in the 10th. Had I stuck to my commitment to play ALL 5WRD spots I'd have banked two plays yesterday instead of...

    NBA Season 3

    No buys, no recap. Record in the semifinals 0-1. It took a lot of discipline for me to lay off the Over in the Bos/Mil game yesterday, and I'm glad I did. It would have been a tough loss to take after watching the game stay under by just four points because they went a combined 18-57 from three...

    MLB buys for 2022

    Recap: 1-1 Record: 7-9, -$256 Won $100 with TB, lost $100 with Houston as they won the game but by only one run and I had them on the run line, -1' +110. No gain, no damage, broke even on the day. GP spots went 2-2, +$6, record is now 13-18, -$378 Today: GP has TB +107 5WR has Chi WS and LAD...

    NBA Season 3

    No buys, no recap. Record: 0-1 All five "W" spots won yesterday. I didn't buy any because the record for these spots in the postseason was a combined 14-20, but in the semi-finals these are a combined 9-1, so maybe give a little more weight to the semifinal numbers? No matter, I don't have...

    USFL 2022

    Recap: 0-2 Record: 1-5 Down 4 units and juice. This is pure, coin-toss sports betting and it's showing in my record. I expect the level of play to be less than the NFL, but the coaching is even worse. Jeff Fisher showed us once again why so many bettors and fans used to say, "How the hell does...

    NBA Season 3

    No buys, no recap. Record: 0-1 Good move factoring in the "Pendulum Effect" and looking past the solid #'s I had on the Phil/Mia game (a combined Fade of 13-29, 69%.) Both games went Over, so the semi's are 4-4 now on Ov/Un. Today I have no plays for totals, but I do have three spots to...

    MLB buys for 2022

    Three days ago I had a profit. Then I bet three games that were NOT from one of the situational spots I track, and . . . I go 0-3. AND I used Favs, which meant I didn't get my usual dog odds/+ $ so I had to pay extra juice. At 6-8, -$256 I have some work to do, which means I'm back to being...

    Recap: (chalk on the blackboard): I will not bet games that aren't from one of my spots. I will not bet games that aren't from one of my spots. I will not bet games that aren't from one of my spots. I will not bet games that aren't from one of my spots. I will not bet games that aren't from one...

    NBA Season 3

    No buys, no recap. Record: 0-1 CORRECTION on yesterday's plays. The BW spot was Mil, not Mem. I did okay not trusting GS like I did in the same spot Sunday. The problem in game one (even though they barely got by with a 1 pt win) was they couldn't stop one guy - Ja, as he put up 34 pts against...

    MLB buys for 2022

    Recap: 0-1 Record: 6-6 +$20 GP: 10-16, -$494 No GP spots today. The lesson from yesterday should be the familiar . . . "DON'T MAKE BUYS ON GAMES THAT AREN'T FROM ONE OF YOUR SYSTEMS!!!" The lesson will be ignored today as I buy not one but TWO games that are not from any of the situational...
