Yes, for the most part. As any successful gambler in our history, I havine strict money management strategies that I stick to. If you have trends/stats/line movement as information to make picks, you should be equally as confident in all of them.

Meaning, if you have a $2,000 starting bank roll - Bet $110 for $100 on all of my plays. If you build your bankroll to $3,000 - Start betting $165 for $150. $4,000 bankroll $220 for $200 and so on.

It's silly to win 3 bets on your system, but then say you know what I really like this last game so you bet 3 units and lose. Now your whole system has broken even or cost you money on the day instead of having the 1 loss but 3 wins to keep you in the green.

MONEY MANAGEMENT. Make sure you have it else if your gambling, please switch to my local book so I can collect off of you each week! LOL

Good Evening Threaders,

Thursday Night NBA Action makes me get that warm feeling inside. A few amount of games which gives an ample amount of opportunity for the public and average joe to dump their money on one side of each wage. Well I am against them on 1 game but with the public on 2 of the games tonight. Good Luck to all that follow. Money Management People!

Thursday - 1/24/13

Toronto Raptors.............. +4

New York Knicks............. +1

Los Angeles Clippers.....  -5


This Week: 14-5-1

The Knicks opened at +2 last night.. After looking at the lines once more before bed last night, I saw it already shifted down to +1 to I grabbed it right there. I am a hometown fan so I will state, this play also gets because I am doing well this year and will back my favorite team.  All the money is on the Knicks so usually I would be on Boston in this situation in any other game but not against my home team!

Also, Clippers opened at -7 and went down to -6 after some betting. As I stated in my first post of the thread, on my plays I will buy .5-1pts so if you need to do this to match my plays, do so. Reverse Line Movement in this game. Clippers have most action coming in but the biggest wages tonight are on Phoenix +7. 

Tonight I feel is another card where you have to use your stronger judgement/knowledge of the team to determine if they will cover the spreads or not. I watch every single game twice so that's why I feel I am a good capper. As a former D1 college player and having some friends in the NBA, it's all about film study when trying to really become great at capping games.

It's not as simple as just going against the public, or looking for reverse line movement, etc and making your bets. Yes on every night, any given side you bet on will have one of those common betting trends but those trends alone are no way, shape, or form deciphers on whether or not your bet will be a Winner or a Loser.

Good Luck Once Again!!!!

It's always great to start off the night with a win! The Knicks scare me though they are shooting awfully from the field! Pissing me off!

Well we have gained units no matter what tonight! This is why you stick to strict money management and wagering. If you went heavier on the Clippers and lose tonight, you don't have a profitable night. Remember, profitable days = profitable weeks = profitable months = profitable years!!!!
