Then again, while Denver won their division last season they were actually quite poor ATS.

So what I'm saying is that Sharp Gamblers bet on situations/systems not their favorite teams!!!!

If you have money against your favorite team are you truly a "fan" of them for that game?  I bet against my favorite teams all the time as well.  As a Bronco fan I'm forced to, but I'm not rooting for them win a game I bet against them.  I understand being pissed on a loss like this.  I was so pissed last week when it happened to me, but I was pissed at my team for giving them the open look, not at the team that made the shot. 

Example: I bet the Lions two weeks ago against MY Redskins because of the situation and made money!!!!!

Bleh, had a big long response that I'm not retyping.  I think we all understand what everyone else is saying at this poing.  Lets just hope we are on the right side next time.  GL to everybody tonight.  and

Games arent fixed.  When we lose we blame it on fixed games... when we are on the other side of the ball we say it was good capping... 

Overall theres noone to blame but to move on.

Thats why we call it gambling.  If there is someone to blame its chicago for not making both free throws to put the game away for the chicago betters..

The way I see it is Denver knows how to close out games strong... losing or not... and chicago sits on leads and doesnt know how to close out games...  Use that for future handcapping to our advantage.

 

thats my two cents..

Much respect to you Hammer!!!

Ummm, well, actually Chicago had a late 4th quarter comeback just to be in that position, so I wouldn't quite say that.  They closed out the game when they forced a Denver miss down 3.  That last one....as some of us have said while blue in the face....was MEANINGLESS to Chicago and has no reflection on them.  Pure and simple.  Sure, Deng should have made both FT's.  Fine.  Moving on....

Luckily I stayed away from this bullshit. Ive been burned by last minute NBA fouls/free throws/players not caring way too much. Lesson learned again!

If you are going to bet the NBA, only bet the moneylines! Are you really going to risk your money on Tyrone's meaningless free throws at the end of a game? or maybe Jamal wanting to pad his stats by making a layup instead of running the clock out with 4 seconds left and up by 9 points.

Come on guys, this is nothng new and its only in basketball. if you bet the game straight up, at least u know your not going to get screwed on meaningless bullshit at the end

good capping? thats fuckin retarded. so youre saying that people that had denver are good cappers because they "finished strong" by making a pointless basket when nobody cared. just how denver backers drew it up, right?

Thats not true, Chicago came back from a double digit deficit in the fourth to end covering a 9.5 spread.

anyways, to everyone who posted in this thread,

also a victim of that game, went from making 40 grand to 5 since i had chicago as an individual bet and tied into a 3 game parlay as well. time to move onto Miami covering tomorrow. maybe the fixing will go my way this time.

Life is fixed, get used to it and move on to the next rigged game...

i went to bed thinking bulls won 94-90.woke up and it was 94-92...it has to be fixed, if they were really trying they would have shot a 3 and hoped to get foul...the 2 points did nothing for them since the game was over..

It was definitely a peculiar play.
Had Denver 2nd half and cashed it, so I am glad I avoided the mess of the whole game bet.

Why would the refs know the spread?????

ive had games like this, all you can do is pray your on the fixed side next time LOL I know the feeling though, i've beattin the stuffin out of some pillows before, even put my remote into the wall before so ya it sucks but what it boils down to is you got 2 sides to bet, you got a 50 50 chance of being on the right side, that the way i look at it
