Been watching the NBA for a longgg time now while keeping a keen eye on spreads and totals.. AT LEAST some games are fixed , its not even about capping properly or choosing the correct side logically..its about being on the right side of the script

You’d be naive to think that professional sporting events are never rigged. But you’d be a fool to believe they all are.

Cause they are too a certain degree which sucks but is fine with me if they are. My goal is like everyone else’s and that’s beat the bookies! Gotta think like them in a way cause they don’t take loses as much a public does.

I HAVE TO AGREE......Golden State (if they wanted to )  Could have beaten tonight's Knicks (Minus Porzingus and a few others) by any amount above 20 points that they wanted to.....  The Warriors were up 18 with 0.53 seconds left and had the ball, and "let the Knicks" score SEVEN (7) Quick points to win by ONLY 11 !?!?!?!?!?!?    Lucky for me I had G.State -7.5 (LIVE WAGERING- THE ONLY WAY TO HAVE A CHANCE TO STAY ALIVE WITH THIS GARBAGE) and I fortunately WON my wager.  

The Warriors could have and should have won by 22 or more, BUT DIDN'T because this NBA Crap is BOGUS !!!

... I had GS -11.5 ... That shit stings. I don't mind losing but losing like that hurts. For a game so out of reach and give up 2 turnovers and 7 points??

Lakers beat Indiana at home, Indiana beats San Antonio on the road, Orlando beats Boston on the road, San Antonio beats Cleveland, Sacramento beats Orlando on the road. This shit is getting harder to cap than trying to hit a number at the roulette table! paint_help

Notice how Dubs seemed to be capped at 123 points when they stopped scoring (and playing defense) in the last minute to blow the cover.  Date was 1/23.  Almost like a slap in the face to Warriors backers lol

This Golden State loss tonight was a bad beat for a lot of us...Putting your scrubs in up 18 with 2 minutes left and having a 6'9" forward touch the ball, when a PG who can make free throws should be dribbling the ball...It may not be rigged, but Steve Kerr knows the spread, and he knows when he puts bad reserves in the game, and gets off the Golden State winning script, he knows, just like Lane Kiffin joked last fall, that he f^cking gamblers...note to self, never back Golden State ATS again...

I hate these fence-riding posts. Pick a side and stick to it. Either it is rigged, or it isn't.

Dont say its not, then proceed to make a case for why it IS rigged. Lack of balls.

What happened in the last minute tells me that the NBA game lacks integrity...players may not get paid, and wise guys may not get paid, but this fking with gamblers is borderline corruption....I know the Las Vegas books and the offshores won big tonight, so they don't care, but if they had any integrity at all they will call for an investigation and ask the NBA to look at that last minute, considering the line, and see if there was corruption...I usually call degenerate gamblers who say college football or college basketball is fixed, and many of those poor souls think it is widespread...What I saw tonight in the last 50 seconds by Golden State disgusted me so much, that I will never back them again, and I hope anyone beats them for the NBA championship this season...and I hope their key players get hurt, and their corrupt coach is forced to retire...

there is a difference...rigged to benefit financially - is the definition of rigged...knowing the line, and almost intentionally stop play hard and putting in 3rd team scrubs that almost never play, and knowing that you fking the gamblers, that's corruption and attacks the integrity of the game...

NBA bettors won so much ATS on Warriors and Cavs games last year.  The conspiracy theorist in me wants to say Vegas got tired of losing money on games where 70%+ of the public automatically bets the favorite.  So when people on covers say this year is harder to bet than years past, I somewhat agree.  Nothing seems to be "easy" unless you've been doing this for several years and can see through the BS

LONGHORN, same thing. It's why point spreads were invented. Whoever came up with that idea was one of the smartest people in history. Just think about it.

You think team owners do not bet on their teams? Why do you think gambling addict Michael Jordan wanted a team so badly ?

You don't really think they make their money on tickets, hot dogs and merchandise, do you ??? 

College boosters bet royally on games as well. For cryin out loud, the NFL itself was started by mobsters, bookies and gamblers. Couldn't possibly be rigged, right ???

when there's a 30 to 10 free-throw discrepancy in games it really makes you wonder Doc rivers called out on it last night and got ejected the ref told him not to TALK! Doc replied "what ref tells you....you cant talk?

 I can, but every time I tell people...I get the classic trolls telling me I am crazy. I deposited 50K into my Betcris account on January 17.

Today, Jan 24, 6 days later, I am at 143K. I have been going at it for a five days straight, on very little sleep. I bet on EVERYTHING.

I know butkkus about soccer, yet I make tons of money betting live. Here is my thread, and ALL tickets are REAL and genuine. 

https://www.covers.com/postingforum/POST01/showmessage.aspx?spt=21&sub=102648917&page=4

Let me be clear. I DO NOT sell picks. I am not in that line of business.

SPORTS ARE RIGGED........and I am good at what I do

Nice.  Don't think I saw one loss in that thread.  Of course most people who do what you do professionally share the same beliefs.  You just catch a lot of flack from haters on Covers because the people who win consistently are either banned or have no time to deal with the negativity.  Again great job

First, thank you for your kind words.

Second, I did clarify in one of my postsa in that thread---I bleive Post number 1 or 2---that I only post the winnign tickets. Beleive me, I do have lots of losers. I bet a lot of volume, so I take many chances and have my share of losses, too.

Mostly cuz I tend to go for a lot of plus money----especially with soccer. I bet lots of totals. Thats actually (if you notice from my tickets)--the bulk of my betting activity.

stick to college for this reason, not external motivations and u get 100% effort (most of the time) so you can properly cap motivational angles etc.

dude the nba, players, and coaches don't give a shit about your $50 or $100 bet, they make millions.  Yes they likely know what the # is but there is no "script".

just because you lost by 1 in the last minute doesnt mean its scripted. you feel its scripted because you had an expectation that you would win and when you didnt, you felt the need for some sort of explanation that absolves you of fault, hence, fabricating the fact that the sport game was indeed scripted and that your money was doomed from the very beginning.

Its fixed if you're on the wrong side, and you're a great capper if you're on the right side. Everyone goes through it with all sports. That's the life of gambling, making excuses for losses and when you win no questions are asked. We are gambling, there is a luck factor, hell even kenpom has a luck factor. 

You probably don't even know when you're on the right side of the "fix" because you don't care, you won.

No, I disagree...not in the case of Golden State versus New York last night.  This wasn't a late 3 by NY to BDC...This was concentrated effort once GS got up by 18 to lose the cover by the behavior of the coach to insert NBA salary min players and instructed them to run GS regular offense, and not stall the game to close it out, like a team normally would...I am not advocating that  Kerr or anyone else is on the take...I am just saying these coaches know the spread, and with the Durant ejection, and NY's best player sitting, these GS coaches knew they were fking the betters...That attacks the credibility of the game...its disgusting...I find the nuts who claim fixes in college games and NFL games to be half crazy...what happened last night with the circumstances between GS and NY was not sour grapes by GS backers.  Anyone who watched that last minute with any degree of pragmatism would suspect that GS changed its tactics...its dirty as hell...
