TRUST YOURSELF PLAYS 8/29 (7% YTD)

YTD:  8-3 (73%)

BIG PLAYS:  2-0

So I'm gonna start by addressing all the "noise" in my previous thread.  First off, good, bad or indifferent, I do NOT need to post plays.  I also do not NEED attention.  Hence, I do not NEED to create accounts to get my viewership/following up.  All my plays have been posted and listed on here, if you don't like them, a constructive argument or comment is fine.  Otherwise, you don't need to be in the thread.  The plays speak for themselves and while they cannot all win, I do my best to draft a write up so people can understand the thinking and angles I'm using to play the games.  And yes, I know it's a small sample size thus far but I've posted years ago with success as well, so tail if you want, or don't, won't matter to me.

With that said, I do have plays for today but want to be VERY clear.  I do NOT count the LIVE plays I post to my record, I know some people on COVERS do, no worries, just my way of doing things.  I DO post them because a couple of people have asked me to do so.  And they HAVE won, but again, not posted to record.  Secondly, my BIG plays also count as ONE win, though I personally put more units on it.  I trust every person can manage their own bankroll and so do as you please with those.  Currently they are 2-0...on to today.

A couple of days ago, before the NBA came to a screeching halt, I had posted a play on MIL/ORL 1H OVER.  Two days later, I do not see much of what has changed.  I think Milwaukee comes out at the same speed you have seen them previously, and expect the Magic to play loose as they know they are all but finished and having nothing to lose.  I expect the Bucks to get a big lead, just as they have the past couple of games, but I expect them to put the Magic away and win by close to 20, if not more.  The reason i do not want to take the FG OVER is because I do see the second and third units hitting the floor.  BUT, the only thing that has saved the Bucks ATS has been those units, as they have come in and held the cover for the past couple of games.  Again, what's different?  Personally i see the game as 120-100 or 125-105 type of final.  To me, if that is correct, it's just way too close to the current FG OVER for my liking.  Barring some type of unforeseen injury, I like both:

OVER 113 FH (MIL/ORL)

MILWAUKEE (-13) BIG PLAY

I actually do have an angle on the second game as well as some of the other sports today.  I am going to keep everything posted in ONE thread in this forum so if you want to tail, great, they will be listed here.  If not, again, no worries.  Just keep things constructive and interesting, don't appear as a troll I have done nothing wrong and want to continue doing this until I can bear no more.

As for HOU/OKC, I know that Westbrook is returning, but I think that will help the UNDER more than anything.  He is a menace defensively, can get rebounds, and creates shots for his teammates.  I think the current spread of HOU (-4.5) is a little high for my liking so I can see myself taking that LIVE.  Until a game is emboldened, it is NOT a play.  Just so nobody is confused and thinks I'm doctoring the record, as they thought I doctored my own posts.

In MLB, I cannot possibly turn a blind eye on the CWS, as they have won 10 of the last 11 and 3 in a row.  Last night they kept fighting and are loaded, top to bottom, in a lineup I just don't think KC can compete with.  Add to that their best pitcher, Dylan Cease, is starting today at home, where he is 2-0 with a 1.59 ERA and you have me biting.  Moreover, yesterdays win by the CWS was rare in the sense that it was won by a 1 run margin, something the White Sox have done only THREE times out of their 20 wins.  That means they win 85% of their games by MORE THAN ONE RUN.  Throw in a hot pitcher who is most comfortable at home and I feel comfortable enough playing it:

MLB:  CHICAGO WHITE SOX (-1.5) +115

Lastly, I have an MLS play that I will just do a write up on now.  Just so everyone knows, this is one of my best, if not best, sports to handicap.  It's just not all that popular AND most of the leagues haven't even started yet.  But a couple of days ago, I posted in my thread that I really liked LAFC to go to Real Salt Lake and take their first victory.  They are, after all, arguably the top MLS team coming off an upset.  But they don't play tonight.  Columbus, on the other hand, is loaded with offensive talent as well as a stout defense and will go TO Cincinnati, one of the bottom teams last year, in a fight for supremacy in the state of OHIO.  They are a short favorite here and will not only be motivated to not lose to their home state "rivals", but also put their names in the discussion for supremacy in the MLS.  With Atlanta still trying to figure things out without Josef Martinez, Columbus will want to keep the winning ways alive and create some distance for when he returns.  This is the perfect opportunity for them to do so:

MLS:  COLUMBUS CREW (-120) BIG PLAY 

Please play responsibly and tail at your own risk.  While I think these games will all win, as we know, anything is possible.  I will be back later with more NBA and a potential NHL play on the late game.  Hoping everyone has a positive day and, as always, good luck to all...

Thank you for what you bring to the table. Good luck today and the rest of the way 

Thank you got in over 112.5 

Notice how this account only comments on his threads?

You are a good capper La, but quit bsing people. You got caught and don't wanna fess up. Stop being a diva and just post your plays. 

buddy, no offense, that is your first post i've been on this site for years.  if i needed to comment on my own thread I'd not even start one to begin with.  and that comment clearly was asking for another pick so if that was truly me trying to garner attention one would THINK i would then subsequently respond with, another pick.  no need to comment as I had stated previously...if you want to play Sherlock Holmes then do so within another thread I honestly don't care about the comments or attention I care about MAKING 

Just do what you do man. I do like your picks.

UPDATE:  Just played the Mil/ORL 1H OVER at 112.  Most of you guys are getting these lower lines as well.  Hoping that one point or two won't matter but going to register this as OVER 112 FH.  

UPDATED PLAY:  OVER 112 FH (MIL/ORL)

Best of luck to everyone...

appreciate your plays dude. Keep it up

first have over was looking bad then pulled thru

We look at your plays to make money. Don’t worry about these clowns talking mess. Keep posting for ones who appreciate the insight 

Great win!  Can't believe that cashed after the First Quarter!  Game shaping up how I saw it as stated in my post: "...win by close to 20, if not more".  If I really wanted to put my money behind that I would take the BUCKS 2H (-3).  

PLAY 1:  OVER 112 1H (MIL/ORL) W 

YTD:  9-3

And yes, this time I really AM posting in my own thread...

GREAT DAY so far!  Prob should have laid off the CWS so hope too many of you didn't get hit on that.  Will have more plays upcoming.  Really like Houston but something about the 5 points and Westbrook back has me gun shy.  Much more confident with the UNDER in both the next games.  Think the pace of LAL/POR really slows down and the Lakers put the Blazers into a slow choke hold.  But nobody likes to play unders, I personally like to play winners.

PLAY 2:  MILWAUKEE (-13) W BIG PLAY 

PLAY 3:  CWS (-1 1/2) +115 L 

YTD:  10-4

BIG PLAYS: 3-0

Hoping everyone is having a profitable day.  Back later in same thread.

I have added Columbus into my parlay.

I have no idea about MLS but have faith in you.

BOL

they should win.  no matter what field they play on they are the better side and completely healthy.  something like 3-1 i envision.

also just saw someone had messed with the subject of my thread.  obviously i'm not 7% but 73% but that was also before the day started.  last time they added PENIS at the end of it.

honestly i can just go away i started this to prove to whomever called me a troll i'm actually a lifelong sharp and have already done so.  not sure what people hate about the threads nor why they would think I am drafting messages to applaud myself.

if you don't like the thread, stay out.  it's that simple.

 ignore the idiots.  keep posting for those of us that follow

you'r a troll. you trying to get attention and if you have like 70% after 30 bets. you will go tout...like all others before you... 

A real Sharp bettor will never say he is a sharp bettor. and even dont have time to deal here. go back to your instagram deals or whatever... if you wants to put your plays here. then go ahead. but pls stop this drama.....

as i said, if you don't like the thread, stay out.  you're an angry person attacking people for no reason.  best of luck to you 

Great job LaGaneofinches, ignore the bookies, uP

LA...your thoughts on the late game

Thanks for sharing boss!! Do you like anything in the Lakers game?

Great work today! 

Very impressive LA. Thank You

Man I really should have taken my own advice and trusted myself with this Hou/OKC under.  As they say, hindsight is 20/20...anyways, the next play is pretty straightforward.  I know that Portland still has some solid pieces in McCollum, Nurkich, Grant, Whiteside, etc...but the Lakers are going to be focused and even if those guys get their points, I think the Lakers overpower a deflated Blazers team.  Just no other way to see it in my opinion.  I'm a bit nervous to take the UNDER even though it would make sense with Lillard's points, especially 3pters, missing from the team.  I think the Lakers go on to complete the sweep for favorites today:

PLAY 4:  LAL (-13) BIG PLAY

PLAY 5:  LAL FH (-8.5) 

Good luck whatever you decide.  So far, 2-1 day with now 3 pending.  As always, good luck to all.
