Billy Blastoffs Picks 11/29/06

[Billy Blastoff]

yesterday 1-0 +$250
overall 10-3 +$1675

Today's plays are: all bets are $250

BOISE ST +1[(I bet it at +2 at 12:37 vs BYU BB line says the no soda drinking Mormons should be a 4 point favorite. Don't get greedy and bet the money line

Game of interest but no play is Temple . Based on BB numbers they should be only a 3 1/2 point favorite. Line opened at -8 would be a play but Rutgers Qfactor numbers. have improved which sometimes means a good game is on the horizon. Too risky a play.

Good luck to all

And yes I do believe when I place my bet I will get +2

Today's plays are: all bets are $250

UNLV +14 vs ARIZONA BB line says Wildcats at home should be a 18 point favorite.

I see you counted this as a win. Arizona won 89-75. Shouldn't it have been a push?

BG...BB got it at 15...

BG...BB got it at 15...

But he posted +14 as the play. I'm just trying to understand the record keeping. Usually, whatever line is posted with the pick is how it is graded regardless of later line movement.

This is what gets me sick of this forum. I tell u my selections early. I often tell u when the line will change. Yet there are people that arent happy with winners. Starting tmmw I will post my 7PM games at 6:59 PM so there will be no cofusion as to what the line is and what my record is.

 

[Rcxslam]

BB..imo don't even post a record...will eliminate all the problems...

 

[BGFalcon]

Don't get so touchy...I was just asking how +14 counted as a win. It seems fair to assume that if you post +14 as a play you are playing it at that number.

i think you should continue to post the plays as early as possible and just update the line at the time you place your wager. most of the lines for the underdog picks continue to rise throughout the day so any of us with common sense will wait and get the best line. i think most people agree that posting early is beneficial and we can decide when to place the wager.

There were no 14's available! All of us got 15 and a win. Don't let this guy mess with you, Billy.

If you read the whole thread he posts later on in the day got +15 and placed the bet. The line at the time of his post was 14, he waited and got 15, what's the problem with that? That's a win in my book.

BGFalcon is listed as a "degenerate" He probably calls his book and asks "what is the UNLV line?" and the bookie knows he is donking his whole roll on the Running Rebels so he gives him 14 instead of 14.5 or 15...so he pushes while the rest of us win by the hook or whole point!

 

[Flipper13]

Billy I think the guy is just asking like I kinda did the other day, but I understand what you meant and held out for better which paid off yesterday....

Perhaps 6:58pm would be a little better?:toast:


Good luck today and thanks again for posting.

I love Lute, up 14, he instructed his scrubs to hold on to the ball with 20 sec left to preserve our win. To get to 14, UNLV drove it in and make a nice dish for a layup w/ 25 sec left instead of shooting one of those off-balance threes.

Btw, I got it at +15. Thanks BB - keep blowing and going.

BB - I for one appreciate your post early as 7pm is right in my drive time. But whatever you decide, I will make adjustments, because I like the winners. Some of us longtime members with very little posts appreciate you going out on a limb and giving us info. Bottom line, I appreciate your taking the time to even post. Good Luck.

Nice first post. I ask a simple question about record keeping and you turn it into a personal attack.

There were no 14's available! All of us got 15 and a win. Don't let this guy mess with you, Billy.

There were plenty of 14's available. Where do you see that I am messing with anyone? I simply asked a question.

I will let it go and let you all continue your lovefest:142hump:
