Baseball, Hockey, Soccer – Lets get it

Leave a comment

Mike Trout has 4 homers in his career against Sonny Gray. I think he gets his 5th today. Rooker and Swanson have started hot.

Trout/Dansby Swanson/Rooker Home Run Parlay risking .5 units to win 9137.5 units. or +18275 no sweat parlay on DK. Feeling Lucky!

Basketball no sweat bet on Draftkings today – Miles Bridges 30 points rebounds assists with no LaMelo. Fred VanVleet over 2 3s. Nuggets ML and over 114.5 team total. +225 parlay them all

Have a 100% boost that I am using on Crystal Palace over 1.5 goals, Hurricanes in hockey over 2.5 goals, Man City to win first half and man city to score 3 or more. Leciester and Southampton two of worst teams in league. Capitals are doing their Ovechkin thing and giving up goals in the process. Seems like they love giving up two goal leads lately. Hurricanes can apply the pressure and win, but feel safer with the 3 goals.

All My Parlays Lost – Discouraged, but not giving up!

That is the parlay life. Got to be able to stomach the losses in between big wins.

Fenerbache/Virtus Bologna over 168 +170 for 1 unit. Taking my talents to Europe on this one. My Euro league betting record depends on this game.

100% boost on Draftkings risking 1.5 units to win 7.38 units – Sengun over 25 points/assists – Rockets over 114.5 – Ohio +8 and over 17.5 team total. Toledo is favored in this game. I do not think they should be. Ohio’s offense has looked great since their loss to rival Miami. Toledo are not bad, but I think Ohio will simply score more. Pacers cannot play interior defense well enough to stop Sengun. Should bang easy, especially if Jalen Green is out. He is questionable as of writing.

No sweat bet risking 2.5 units to win 18.79 units. Lillard 3 threes and 25 points. Fred VanVleet 18 points and 2 threes. Wagner 38PRA and Magic ML. Bulls and Pacers are not great at defense. Magic are better without Banchero. Wagner should takeover against Clippers. No Norman Powell for Clips, so I expect their bench to suffer. Watch Nic Batum go off now…

Giannis as my draftkings star of the night over 30 points -185 for 1 unit.

Charleston -10.5/Columbia -425 parlay risking 1 unit to win 1.35 units. LIU and Citadel suck at basketball. Favorites should roll in these spots.

November 18th Locks (Parlays Really)

Leave a comment

Jon Jones is beast. Hornets beat the Bucks. Jim Harbaugh and the Chargers are rolling. Giants sat Daniel Jones. Panthers have a higher winning percentage in November than the Chiefs, who they play next. CMC is back, but 49ers lost to Seahawks on late Geno scramble. Derrick Henry fumbled for the first time in over 500 touches and Ravens barely lose to Steelers. Justin Tucker also missed two field goals.

Heat/Pacers Parlay risking 1.75 units to win 4.18 units.

Jared McCain over 28.5 Points, Rebounds, Assists parlayed with Ivey over 25 PRA and Cade Cunningham over 34.5 PRA. Bulls defense is bad. 76ers have been bad, but Jared McCain has been good. He looks comfy in the NBA only 10 games in. the 76ers and Raptors are bad, hoping they stay bad tonight.

Michigan -17, North Texas over 58.5 points, George Washington under 82.5 and NJIT +13 first half for 2.5 units to win 7.86 units. NJIT have been playing first halves well. Hoping they make it ugly against GW. North Texas are not as bad as the line suggest, but Mcneese can score so staying with the points. Miami of Ohio do not have the depth to compete with Michigan.

Nick Suzuki to score +360 for 2.5 units. Oilers allow goals – they score them too, but I like the Canadiens to score on some power plays and Suzuki will capitalize.

Hooker over 4.5 tackles/assists and Dowdle to score and Cowboys to score 13 risking 0.25 units to win 1.62 units.

Brandon Miller will be better than Anthony Edwards

I realize saying Brandon Miller will be better than Anthony Edwards is a hot take since Ant just dominated the defending champs, but B Miller is nice. Brandon Miller plays for the Hornets, who sucked because of injuries yet again. These injuries gave him a chance to be the focal piece of the offense at times. Brandon Miller shot better than Ant did his rookie year (numbers above), and he has a higher shooting ceiling (form and height).

My Hornets could keep sucking forever, but if LaMelo can ever be healthy and they can ever find a 5 that can play defense. They have something with Brandon Miller. Miller doesn’t have the “pop” athleticism that Ant has, but he does have the ability to hang in the air like Ant. I mean look at this dunk.

The Hornets rarely hit on lottery picks. Hell I wanted them to draft Scoot – maybe it’s just cause of the Miller-Alabama gun stuff – but boy was I wrong. Miller can play. I doubt the Hornets will hit on this year’s 6th pick. I think they should go with Salaun (6 foot 9 hardworking frenchmen), Topic (Tall guard if LaMelo doesn’t pan out), or Cody Williams (nba starter at least). If the Hornets can hit on this pick this year, they are actually setting up nicely. Davis Bertans, who won’t be resigned, is the second biggest cap hit right now after LaMelo. The Batum signing was terrbile. The Rozier/Hayward signings were not viewed as bad, but they kinda were. Rozier and Hayward got paid about 50 million a year combined on the Hornets and didn’t ever make the playoffs. Rozier and Hayward complained and said snide things about how shitty they Hornets culture was after they left – yeah yall were brought to make it better as veterans.

Brandon Miller may never be great because of the team that drafted him, but I think he can be a top 10 nba player and in MVP conversations on the Hornets. If that happens, Hornets fans (me) would love him forever.

Wild Jags Story

Leave a comment

The Jaguars hired a sex offender. Found out. Fired him. He would remote into the Jumbotron out of spite? He did it enough that the FBI tracked it and he had more sex offender stuff at his house. Maybe not as crazy as the Baltimore Bridge collapse or P Diddy and Cuban Gooding Jr being sex offenders but the World keeps on spinning.

MARCH. IS. HERE. BEST TIME OF YEAR AHHHHHHHHHH

Leave a comment

70-62-2 on NCAAB in 2018/19 up 8.95 units

46-38-1 last season 19/20 up 13.96 units

15-11-2 20/21 up 8.91 units

1-7 this season down 7.48 units

Scottie Scheffler winning the Players back 2 back washed away a lot of college basketball sins. An Auburn over didn’t hit, even though they scored 86 (South Carolina had 55). UNC let up 35 to Pittsburgh in 1H, but Pittsburgh couldn’t break 67 points. I ain’t worried about losing some close ones. A lot of basketball left. Congrats to all the conference winners – especially NC State and Duquesne for winning their conferences for the first time in a long time (’87 and 77′). Sadly those two teams beat my teams. VCU made the NIT. UNC got a 1 seed. Last year VCU made the tourney and UNC didn’t – be cool if they could both make it. Real Cool.

Kentucky -13.5 for 4 units. Using my DK 64% boost here. Hit this one when it opened, and the line hasn’t moved. Oakland allows a high percentage of shots in transition (5th most out of any team in tournament). That scares me against Kentucky’s guards. Over/under is 163 – There will be points in this game and Kentucky will get too many easy ones. Kentucky has almost become a lovable loser in this tournament – They have a chance to go on a run this year.

NC State +5.5/Creighton -13.5/BYU Duquesne over 140.5 Risking 1 unit to win 3.9 units. I watched NC State beat UVA and UNC in person. Burns and Burns are problems. OConnel can shoot. Texas Tech allows 60% of opponents shots at the rim. That’s a lot (6th worst our of tourney teams). The human escalade is gonna get his..

Creighton beat UConn by 19. Once I saw that happen – I was betting their line in NCAA tournament until they lose. They can outshoot anyone

Duquesne have been scoring since they beat VCU in Richmond – Honestly he milked the injury a bit. Just almost lost a tooth. Happens to children all the time. Dae Dae is a problem for the Dukes. BYU have a smooth offense, but I do not think their defense is crazy good. BYU are actually one of the few teams that the tournament seeded correctly. BYU love getting out in transition.

South Carolina/Creighton/Auburn -12.5 risking 1 unit to win 2.89 units. Jay Bilas said Oregon would win, so going with the Cocks. Creighton ain’t losing to Akron – RIGHT? Yale are not great at offense or defense. They just beat Brown by 1 to make the tournament on an unathletic looking last second shot. The opposite of Kyrie’s game winning shot against the Nuggets.

Creighton +2500 for 1 unit. Dook +2500 for 1 unit. North Carolina +1200 for 1 unit. Auburn +1400 for 1 unit. Picking a team from each Region and letting it ride.

Also placed some more golf bets – Wyndham Clark top 10 all 4 Majors on DK +8000 for 1 unit. Lowry top 10 all 4 +8000 for 1 unit. Scheffler top 4 all 4 +650 for 1 unit.

Maverick McNealy top 10 Valspar Championship +650. Brian Harman in my One and Done.

Some NBA Bets for tonight if you are a degenerate and can’t wait for NCAAT like me.

Kyrie Irving 4.5 assists/Kyrie 3 3s made/Mavs over 114.5 tonight against the Spurs. Riskin 1 unit to win 1.89 units. Doncic is Prolly playing, but I like Kyrie to get a little more usage with Luka’s hamstring issue. Kyrie seems to be locking in. He has played in 18 games straight for the first time since 2016 I think it was. Spurs defense will be great one day with Wemby, but that day is not this season.

Jordan Poole first 3 +390. Bet & Get on DK for 0.5 units. No Jones for the Wizards. Was going to go with Kispert or Poole, but Poole’s odds are better. Dk has nuked their odds on this promo, but I hit on Kyrie with Luka out, Kuzma with Jones out, and D Mitchell with Strus out.

BYU ML/1H ML and over 142 against UCF today for 1 unit at +152. Using draftkings SGP insurance boost.

Just gotta get a little action in before my VCU Rams play at 2.

St Mary’s looked good against Gonzaga to win the WCC last night. Zags just don’t have the offensive fire power this year. Scoring is important in basketball.

UNC gonna beat dook 3 times to win the ACC Tourney Title? Idk but stay tuned!

2-3 on NBA this year up 3.70 units.

Sabonis over 41.5 Points/Rebounds/Assists for 2 units at -115. Sabonis will hit 44 or more in this game. He is a triple double machine lately, He leads the NBA with 21 of them. Jokic, who he is playing tonight, led the NBA last year with 29 of them last year and won the title. Sabonis will give it his best tonight against Jokic. Sabonis had 40 PRA in this last meeting, but that was a low-scoring 102-98 right before all-star break affair. I like this over to hit with more points being scored than that meeting tonight.

Pacers -220 for 2 units. Line moving towards Pacers even more cause CJ, Zion, Ingram all may not play. Pelicans bench is depleted as well. Haliburton getting healthy.

Hornets +8.5 even money against Jazz for 4 units or $200.00. Reverse Line Movement here – 80% of bets are on Jazz, but line has moved from -10 to -9. Hornets have covered every game since Tre Mann was added to the team. Hayward, PJ Washington, Terry Rozier, Frank Ntilikina, Ish Smith, James Bouknight, and Kai Jones are all gone and the Hornets should be better off because of it. LaMelo is still out, but he does not move the needle enough compared to public perception.

Tatum/Shai Gilgeous-Alexander/Donavon Mitchell/Curry/Fox/Doncic/Booker all to score 25 points tonight risking 0.1 unit to win 1.05 units.

Josh Giddey over 3.5 assists and over 0.5 3 pointers made and Thunder race to 20 1Q Parlay risking 2 units to win 8.25 units. Thunder are better than the old Clippers. The Twolves called the Clippers old not me. Twolves should be calling anybody anything till they win something, but I am a Hornets fan….

College Basketball is heating up. VCU was rolling until they lost by 22 to UMass. Penn State kicked their leading scorer off the team and then beat Illinois. UConn was looking dominant untill they got smacked on the road. UNC has a point guard, 3-point shooter, and big man so they can always make a run. Houston’s defense is suffocating. Auburn looked great until a home loss to Kentucky. I’m locked in so some plays will be coming..

I also bet on Tony Finau, David Lipsky, Emiliano Grillo, and/or Alejandro Tosti to win this Mexico Open. It is a course for horses and Cameron Champ is already off to a hot start. Hojgaard, Shelton, and Ghim are the guys I wished I would have bet after watching 15 minutes of golf this morning..

Terry Rozier or Jimmy Butler in Crunchtime?

Leave a comment

The Heat are in the middle of massive losing skid. Since they took Terry Rozier from my hornets for Lowry’s big – let me tell you they already have problems. Rozier scored 8 of the Heat’s first 11 points last night in the loss to the Booker Suns. Then he asked Jimmy to take the technical free throw and Jimmy shook his head no. Jimmy made the free throw, but gotta let the new fan favorite cook. Terry’s offense then suffered and the Heat lost the game. Jimmy lets Herro shine – can he also let Rozier shine? Time will tell, but I would not bet on the Heat going back to the ECF with their defense playing like it is.

1-1 on NBA this year up 1.80 units.
