    DK's SGPs give awful value imo. +265 seems really really low for that

    Rough night. I also had u219.5 and of course the game finishes at 220 with 8 points scored in the final 45 seconds.

    Tried courtsiding today. It’s damn near impossible. First I get there and it’s 99% woman so I stuck out. Then one lady had it in for me. She followed me like a hawk. Orlando had a nice 2nd floor terrace so you could see all the matches. I’m sitting there watching and I see her take a picture of me. Then she had an ITF rep come to her and next thing you know that rep was behind me for like 5
    Minutes.

    finally get a chance and they take the lines down so fast on individual games. Points we’re updAted very fast as well. I think if you spent all day, you might be able to squeak 1 or 2 but with them watching me, I bounced

    I was running way too hot on nba playoffs, I knew a night like that was coming. I could tell from the very first game when bogda destroyed the under with a meaningless bucket at the end of the game it was going to be rough. Didn’t even watch the rest of the games to avoid live betting my way out of holes.

    Probably going into a nosedive, so here are tonight’s picks for you to fade

    Mil/Chi u224.5
    Phi -1.5/o216.5
    BKN ML

    I’m putting multiple units on the nets tonight. I’m hoping the refs call it tighter than game 1 and KD can actually move so he can score a billion points.

    Courtsiding is very frowned upon in tennis. They kick people out for it. They have a Tennis Integrity Unit and train them what to look for. They could probably just tell I wasn’t a normal person hanging out there

    The whole point is to bet individual games. So when it’s game point, some books have those live options. So when you’re live, you see about 5-8 seconds ahead of the information being available online. However they close the individual game lines pretty quick when it’s game point now

    yes mr gordon bombay gave me something

    i was listening to a podcast and they talked about parlaying the top 32 selections into great odds. i was excited to do the same on DK but they apparently don't allow it. seems shitty.

    i was going to bet memphis when the they cut it to about 12 near the end of the 3rd thinking that i would just copy ohhaithur 's strategy. but then minny fought off that run and quickly made it 20 and i figured it would be a waste of money. whoops!

    i just don't understand how you can bet on a road team down 20 and think it's positive ev. it obviously is but i think the line i saw was +1700 and even $10 felt like a waste.

    of course, i bet on utah tonight so i am comfortable wasting some money.

    There is no situation in which it's impossible to be +EV.

    It's all playing the relative odds. I wouldn't have done +1700 down 21. But I would've done +17000. It's all about having a model that finds value

    they're just shutting down in the second half. Even just then it was 237.5 with 5 minutes left and they didn't come close

    Yeah not many garbage time points. Most teams have just let the clock run out and accepted defeat, I think that could change as the series go deeper and teams get more desperate.
    Friday I think I am rolling phoenix, milwaukee, Miami
