Posting all my records here. Yeah I could be better on soccer betting so what?!? My buddy Hunter recently got into soccer gambling. He just bets Man City and Bayern Munich and he does better than me. Sometimes you gotta keep it simple in this world of sports gambling. MLB Playoffs, NBA Season, NHL Season, CSGO Major (First one since before COVID), Tennis, Soccer, and UFC are all going down this weekend. Should be fun…

Hornets ML -130 for 10 units. LaMelo is a stud. Hayward is a professional. Washington/Bridges are fun. Plumlee sucks. All in all I am happy with where my Hornets are going. Cavs are mids. Hornets are going to be good this year if they stay healthy. Gotta take advantage of these early season lines…

Utah Jazz -6 at -110 for 3 units. Jazz will blow the Kings out. If they don’t, will adjust my view of the Kings. I think the Jazz will be a great regular season team again this year. They covered like 19 some odd games in a row last year. They are 1-0 ATS so far..

Utah Jazz 1Q at -165 for 3 units.

Tottenham +0.5 at -155 for 6 units. West Ham looked good with their backups midweek, Tottenham did not. Makes these odds better for us. Son or Kane can always go off. I do not think West Ham are as good as their record says they are. The best team they have beat this league season in Leicester. I like Tottenham to hold serve.

Everton at -150 for 1 unit.

Dortmund -210 for 2 units.

Bayern win and over 3.5 at -200 for 2 units.

Sassuolo at -190 for 2 units.

Sevilla at -220 for 1 unit. Not writing about soccer because need to post for NBA start times. Good luck this weekend. Let’s get hot and make some money.

Elite 8 – NBA – NHL Predictions

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

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

15-9-2 this season up 14.91 units

Arkansas +8 for 3 units. Arkansas are a solid rebounding team. The Razorbacks play up and down and should be able to keep up with Baylor. The Bears should win, but beating an Arkansas team by double digits won’t be easy.

Houston -8 for 3 units. Houston are just too good at defense. I’m not convinced Oregon State will be able to keep up with Houston’s scoring. It’s that simple.

Heat -190 for 3 units. Miami should have won their past two games. My Hornets beat them on some stellar shooting. Blazers beat them because McCollum went off and there were some phantom fouls called against Duncan Robinson. If Miami can’t beat the Knicks tonight, they may not even make the playoffs.

Raptors -155 for 3 units. Raptors -1 1Q for 3 units. If the Raptors can’t beat the worst team in the league, I won’t bet on them again this season.

Celtics/Pelicans over 229.5 for 3 units. Two bottom 10 teams in defensive ratings here. Just gonna send it.

Kings +2.5 for 3 units. Kings have been hot. Fox is a monster.

Cleveland Cavaliers +16 for 3 units. Jazz gotta get tired of beating these “bad” teams.

Bucks +2.5 for 3 units. Bucks are better at defense and 3-point shooting. I’ll take the points.

Flyers -1.5 at +125 for 3 units. Score in first 10 at -155 for 3 units.

Avalanche -1.5 at -170 for 3 units. Score in first 10 at -155 for 3 units. Just goin on favorites to dominate tonight.

March Madness Day 2 – Round 1 Continued

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

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

11-8-1 this season up 8.01 units

VCU +5 at -110 for 10 units MAX PLAY. Bones Hyland, VCU’s best player, lost two his family members in a fire that started while he was watching this tournament three years ago. The man is going to give it his all in this game and the team will follow. That type of passion is what makes college basketball great. Oregon have not beat anybody great this season. I am confused on why they are favored by 5 and I honestly had this game as a push. I am taking these points with no fear. Ace Baldwin for VCU is one of the best freshman facilitators in the country no cap. FULL Disclosure: I graduated from VCU and love Oregon’s uniforms. So I usually get blinded by my love for my school and my love Oregon’s “fun” uniforms. So this could be a case of the blind leading the blind.

Colorado -6 for 3 units. This Colorado team is one of the best they’ve had in years. They will prove it today.

St Bonnies/LSU under 144 for 3 units. The A-10’s best defensive team will force the under here.

Alabama -16.5 for 3 units. Alabama have been a honey hole for me in 2021 (football title game, first game against LSU when they were barely favored in basketball and won by 100). Bama can play D and make 3s. Things I love in betting basketball.

Oklahoma pk for 3 units. I’ve watched 4 Oklahoma games this season. They looked amazing in two, okay in one, and shithousery in one. I’m hoping for the amazing today. Never forget when Buddy Hield lit up the tournament.

UCSB +7.5 for 2 units. I have Creighton winning in my bracket and then beating Virginia, but let’s have some fun and cheer for the underdawg to cover.

MArch Madness Day 1 – Opening Round

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

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

7-2-1 this season up 16.14 units (Michigan State/UCLA Pending as of writing)

It’s 11:24 PM EST and I have to get up for work at 6 so no write ups really. I’ll be drinking IPAs writing and watching these games for a more complete writeup Saturday.

I will say if Drexel taught you anything, Don’t bet -2’s. Bet the favorites ML if anything.

UNC -1 for 4 units. UNC’s big men should eat.

North Texas +7 for 4 units. I watched North Texas play VCU tough last year live. I miss going to live sporting events. Nah but really, I think North Texas is underrated and Purdue is overrated. Crazier things have happened in March.

Texas Tech -4 for 4 units. TT has underperformed this season in my eyes. All that can change with a good tourney showing.

Virginia Tech pk for 4 units. Florida is trash.

Illinois/Drexel under 144 for 4 units. I see a 75-55 type of game here.

Georgia Tech +5.5 for 4 units. Georgia Tech’s coach below is all you need to know.

Without a team, Josh Pastner coaching his kids in his driveway

San Diego State at -155 for 4 units.

Rutgers at -130 for 4 units. Ron Harper should take over this game.

PARLAY ALERT WEOOHOOWOEHOWHEOW

Texas Tech ML/Tennessee ML/Oklahoma St ML/Lousiana Tech ML risking 4 units to win 21.02 units.

NCAA Tournament First Four Predictions – March Madness is Finally here!

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

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

6-2-1 this season up 13.06 units

It’s Finally HERE!!!

Drake -130 for 4 units. “Don’t think about it too much” Just bet it baby! Tyson Etienne can ball for the Shockers. Drake just extended their coach, DeVries, for 8 more years for a reason. 4 More Years! Twice! Darnell Brodie is a solid big man for Drake and the Bulldogs have guards. Good formula in March – good guards and a big man. The Shockers are the public favorite and have the more March experience, but I like Drake.

UCLA +2 for 2 units. UCLA hasn’t won a game since 2/25. They are due! The Bruins are 11-0 when they hold opponents to 62 points or fewer and 6-9 when opponents exceed 62 points. Michigan State can struggle to score at times. I like UCLA to cover in a close game. I like the under a little too, but life’s too short to bet an under on the first day of the long-awaited March Madness.

March Madness and UFC 259 Predictions (SOme NHL Too)

8-3 on College Football this season Up 25.99 units

Haven’t written an article since I predicted the Bama/OSU National Title game perfectly. Won 26 units on college football this past season. It was a fun ride. Shoutout to Iowa and Bama.

Gambling has become legal in more states since last time I wrote (like Virginia), BTC keeps going up, Trump is no longer President, Hornets have the best player in the league in LaMelo Ball. Panthers are gonna get Watson I hope. Good time to be a North Carolinian living in Virginia besides all this COVID shit. Going to start posting my plays religiously like I used to when I was a younger better man. I am no longer going to use working at a hospital during a global pandemic as an excuse.

70-62-2 on NCAAB in 2019 up 8.95 units

46-38-1 last season up 13.96 units

0-0 this season

Haven’t wrote about College Basketball in 366 days right before shit hit the fan with COVID. March Madness will always have been crawling back. One of the best tournaments in all of sports. Let’s get this Bitcoin, USD, or whatever you bet with nowadays.

Miami -4 at -110 for 3 units. Gotta take advantage of trash teams like BC this time of year.

North Texas -5.5 at -110 for 3 units. North Texas

Loyola Marymount +2 at -110 for 3 units.

NHL

Lightning -1.5 at +130 for 3 units. Score in first 10 at -185 for 3 units.

Knights -1.5 at +115 for 3 units. Score in first 10 at -170 for 3 units.

Casey Kenney expects LFA 'champ-champ' status to lead to UFC call - MMA  Fighting

6-1 on UFC/MMA in 2018 up 9.90 units

16-11-1 in 2019 up 3.93 units

2-3-1 in 2020 down 2.46 units

Casey Kenney -135 for 3 units.

The real truth as to why i started doing this early 5th grade, it was a cloaking device for me. During the summer of my 5th grade year I was around more family. Some that names will be left alone I was around more. I was sexually harassed, raped, abused, I even got accustomed to it because being at that age you don’t know what is what. I was a gullible curious kid that didn’t know what the real world was. I had a mindset that my hair was something that I can control. My hair was what I can make and create and be mine. And it gave my confidence. As of recently I wasn’t at my best. Previous History popping up in my head and it sucked mentally “demons”….. because of this virus, I began to truly look at myself in the mirror and see who I truly was even behind closed doors. Long story short I have found peace and internal happiness through this journey god willingly. I forgave everyone even the people that don’t deserve it why? Because it’s dead weight. Time doesn’t wait on anyone so why should I waste my time on it ? Me cutting my hair was more than a cut. My hair was a mask of me hiding the insecurity’s that I felt the world wasn’t ready for. But now better then ever. Out with old. In with the new. I have shed my skin mentally, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. Life will always be hard. Gotta play with the cards your dealt with and try and make a winning hand. And if you lose. It’s never a lost. It’s a lesson 🙏🏾. I’m gonna be off this for awhile still growing through this. Just know I love each and everyone one of y’all. Peace love and happiness 💕🙏🏾

I’m Back

I know all 7 of my readers missed me greatly. I have not written an article for 25 days, which is the longest I have gone since I started this website a couple of years ago. Corona will do that to ya. I have had dreams about betting on the Raptors/Nationals in the playoffs and all the money I won last year. I will find more angles. A global pandemic can stop a lot, but it can’t stop me from being a degenerate. I just took a little hiatus. Let’s get back to winning money. Mini retirements are good. Winning money is better.
