    Ya, you said the problem you have is that when you make a play sometimes the line goes the opposite of what you bet and that a lot of times you get out of the bet! Only time I've gotten out of the bet is when I pushed the wrong button and bet on the team I didn't mean to play, never when the line moved a few points like. GL

    The reasoning after the pick on Houston is pretty much like the one on Dallas yesterday. Boston has shot over 54% in a first half. That won't continue.

    Wouldn't Houston's defense be responsible for easy looks and 54% FG, rather than 'shooter's luck'?

    One big note on the Knicks and Bulls game can already be taken: when line drop that brutal as in this one spread wise - something is cooking  - I missed that point here that despite big public support for the Knicks the line remained at the Bulls +4. I did stay away as I had a hard time believing the Knicks would give a third game in a row to the Bulls. Sometimes the bets picks are the hardest to place

    Mavin you will not believe the night I am having.....

    I told you earlier about how i cashed out...
    well i decided to do more then 1 cash out and took all my money out of my account by mistake....so I got a gigantic cash out (which I am ecstatic about)...but it left no money in my acct by mistake....

    So I had to go to moneygram to put more money into my acct...because it takes a bit to recieve my cashout, and also I made the mistake of putting on my 2nd cashout my full amount (that was in my acct completely)....when i meant to leave 5  grand....so when i went there i was like well whatever no big deal....I'll just recieve a bigger cashout and I can send the money tonight, have it in my acct and start betting....

    Well the person from betonline gave me a name, that i then give to moneygram and complete my transaction....so I went through the entire process, got back home, put in my reference number, waited a half hour for the money to go in my acct......after 45 mins still nothing in there....so i call betonline and ask them, why havent you recieved the money, and picked it up so, there is no money still in my acct...well the frist betonlline person i talked to that gave me the initial name, actually gave it to me backwards......

    so the person i talked to said no big deal, just call moneygram and change the name and your transaction will go through....and the guy gave me hte number to moneygram...

    So i call moneygram, and argue with the person over the phone for two hours about my name, and the reference number, and on top of it she barely even spoke a lick of english...so I kept giving my name, the receivers name, and she kept asking me for a ten digit number....I'm like listen lady I only have a 8 digit number....there has only been 8 digits every time I have done a transaction...So we argue back and forth, and for the first 40 mins I held my temper and was patient with her....but then it just got ridiculous after a while, so i talked to the manager, once again nothing under my name and also I should have a ten digit number...

    so then i call cvs back (the place i actually did the moneygram transaction)....and the girl is like listen I have your order on the computer but there should only be a 8 digit reference number....

    So all confused now I call betonline again....infuriated, wondering why in the heck I had a problem....and the worst part about it, is they always give some 3 word weird foreign name to send the money too...so b4 I initially sent the money I called betonline to check on the name...because it was stated Haroldo R James...so I asked her is that the right name??....she says no its James R Haroldo....so when I initally did the transaction I gave that name....and when i first called betonline back they said no that name is backwards it should have been Haroldo James R....I'm like listen lady I called you guys b4 this transaction to make sure the name was stated right and the last person gave me the name you are giving now, only backwards......so after arguing, with betonline, then calling moneygram, arguing more about them not knowing my transaction, calling cvs, then calling betonline again.....DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE FUCKK HAPPENED....

    when i first called betonline back and the name was wrong...hte guy gave me the number to western union...instead of moneygram

    so there i was arguing with someone from western union for 2 hours about a moneygram transaction...and that is why they couldnt see my transaction to change the name, and why there was no info under my name.....I couldnt friggin believe it...

    so then i promptly called moneygram, found my transaction, changed the name and called betonline back to tell them it was all set....and joke around with the person i was talking to about the whole situation......so finally it all goes through and do you know what she says....sorry sir but it is 9:03 and we stop recieveing money at 9:00 pm....you won't recieve the money till tomm....unfreakingreal.......patience is a virtue Mavin...

    well somebody didnt want me to bet tonight....hahaha
    but whatever good to take a night off....
    and cashing out over 160 units total....wasnt so bad in its own right....unfortunately they wouldnt let me take it all out in one transaction so the initial mistake was breaking it up, into smaller checks and then some how mistakenly taking all my money out of my acct...but whatever.......just in time for me to buy this car i was trying to get...and in the end I truly am happy with my cashout....and how well things have been going for me lately...
    BUT WOW WAS THAT NUTS...LOL

    BOL GUYS TONIGHT!!!

    Mavin you will not believe the night I am having.....

    I told you earlier about how i cashed out...
    well i decided to do more then 1 cash out and took all my money out of my account by mistake....so I got a gigantic cash out (which I am ecstatic about)...but it left no money in my acct by mistake....

    So I had to go to moneygram to put more money into my acct...because it takes a bit to recieve my cashout, and also I made the mistake of putting on my 2nd cashout my full amount (that was in my acct completely)....when i meant to leave 5  grand....so when i went there i was like well whatever no big deal....I'll just recieve a bigger cashout and I can send the money tonight, have it in my acct and start betting....

    Well the person from betonline gave me a name, that i then give to moneygram and complete my transaction....so I went through the entire process, got back home, put in my reference number, waited a half hour for the money to go in my acct......after 45 mins still nothing in there....so i call betonline and ask them, why havent you recieved the money, and picked it up so, there is no money still in my acct...well the frist betonlline person i talked to that gave me the initial name, actually gave it to me backwards......

    so the person i talked to said no big deal, just call moneygram and change the name and your transaction will go through....and the guy gave me hte number to moneygram...

    So i call moneygram, and argue with the person over the phone for two hours about my name, and the reference number, and on top of it she barely even spoke a lick of english...so I kept giving my name, the receivers name, and she kept asking me for a ten digit number....I'm like listen lady I only have a 8 digit number....there has only been 8 digits every time I have done a transaction...So we argue back and forth, and for the first 40 mins I held my temper and was patient with her....but then it just got ridiculous after a while, so i talked to the manager, once again nothing under my name and also I should have a ten digit number...

    I won't be playing either late game. If I played anything I would look under in Golden State. I can't find a pick to save my life though so no plays. 

    Looks like a 2-1 or 3-0 night which I will take my money and run. 

    Good luck with tonight's plays.

    Would you ask the same question if you did not see that Spurs came back in a second half?

    Thanks guys I really appreciate it...Looking back I am actually a little glad that I did take out the full amount....I wouldn't say I got a little more wreckless...well yeah i guess i can say that...i got a bit lucky with some things happening the way they have for the last week and I realized I need to get back to teh system i was using, and that Mavin perfected when I came on here...Let's just say he turned my hard work into harder work....that certainly came to pay off with this theories...then for the last couple days I got a little off target, trying some new things....and despite still making money, it was more luck then hard work and assesment....back to basics of managing bankroll and creating profits slow but steadily....

    It is hard work though...it's like Mavin says cutthroat business

    But I still can't believe the night I had with those people...especially the guy giving me the number to western union instead of moneygram, and arguing with western union about a moneygram transaction for 2 hours....they never even mentioned the word western union one time in this discussion haha...

    But yeah the more I gathered in my notes from last week the more I realized I had some dumbluck that I thought was an accumulation of hard work.....but back to basics, less games, and slow steady increase....while splashing a few big underdog straight up bets (in spots where they looked right)....really helped increase my bankroll....not this parlay dumbluck bet 20 games bullshit....

    Anyways thank you Mavin for everything you have taught me....I was already making money but there is no doubt I made even more because of you....

    I don't middle every game. I do it rarely and if I am taking second half bets - it is because I see something valuable. It might not work each time but will most of the time.

    @ Melos, so you spent couple hours dealing with poor customer service, and have to wait a whole extra day for your money. And you took that long ridiculous post to girl about it.  Jeez, so what everyone has been there.

    Ya my question had nothing to do with the Spurs coming back. I was looking at it at halftime and was waiting for you to pull the trigger like with Dallas the other night but you didn't. So I was just curious that's all

    hey stocktrader....nope nvm your deff not worth the time.....

    yeah I thought it was a pretty crazy story about how it turned out...
    It was less about crying about it...more how crazy, that deposit turned out...and how it was weird that the situation got worse and worse by the minute....i've made tons of deposits in my lifetime, and they have never, ever, gone close to that...maybe the name being wrong or having to redo something....not like 5 mistakes in a row....

    but yeah stocktrader i'm sure deposits like that for you happen all the time...cause like you said, you've been there......ok buddy..

    if you have nothing good to say....why bother...seriously>??

    I'm not going to force any plays today unless I will see something very attractive at the half. I hate forcing the plays. I am all on NFL now and will posting soon on NFL thread. GL all. Grats to melos and everyone out there that did good today or recent weeks. I'm enjoying seeing everyone working together and getting the results. On your own. That is a biggest compliment I can get.

    Recaps will show that some line movements are cashing big:
    Look at the Pistons "suddenly" destroying Milwaukee. Look what Chicago did in NY and the Hornets in NO. All the others cashed in a first half. Friday of line movements
