Celaya,
No offense to that comment you just made kiddo, but I hear that everywhere I go, and IMO, it is the silliest form of handicapping info you will ever hear. I can't stop laughing when I hear it. Tired????
Just because a few players played an extra 10 minutes of basketball, makes them tired?? lol.. man, these guys are the best athletes in the world and are so well conditioned, it's not funny. Do you actually believe that they will be tired tomorrow? Even a loser like me wouldn't be tired if I went to the YMCA tonight and played an extra 10 min of basketball, and then played tomorrow. Imagine now, you are talking about KOBE, SHAQ, PAYTON...lol.. You actually think these guys are going to be tired? Come on Celayas!!
Just 3 weeks ago, some poster came in here guaranteeing the Sabres would lose in Anaheim because they were out west and just played last night, so they are tired... lol.. And even though the sabres were a +230 dog, they still won 5-2.
Pro athletes being tired is the silliest thing I have ever heard. What a joke of a stat that is. And if they have been on a plane for 18 hrs in 2 days, so what. These guys are athletes man.. And even if a team really was so tired, you don't think the oddsmakers take that into effect and adjust the line? So where's the value now?

Raily,
That's one helluva beauty there.. But we have many problems there my friend.
#1- It is a very very bad line.
, and you risk of having it cancelled by the Greek.. That line at Oly is -0.5 even, and he fu cked up and put it at 1/1.5, when it should have read ev-0.5. lol.. He will find it now for sure tomorrow now after this thread..
#2- It is going to be tough for anyone to even get this bet down as if I am not mistaken, Oly only allows you to choose one or the other for hockey. IOW, you can only play either the Puck line (which I doubt anyone picked this) OR the Canadian line, which most picked. So you cannot play this because it involves a puck line.

Raily,
That is a very bad line, trust me.
That line should be (Even/0.5) and instead, The greek guy made it (1/1.5)
This game is off by 1 full goal.. He meant to make it (ev/0.5) and instead made it (1/1/5)
The real line is nashville -0.5 even.. I think it might be risky now to put it in, especially after you just announced it on the rx here.
It is a bad line my friend, but good luck to you. You caught Spiro napping on this one, good job. Maybe if you didn't mention it here, you might of had a chance, but now, forget it.
it's not just a bad line, it's a very bad line.
And I can't believe Oly lets you bet puck lines. I thought it was one or the other. I don't have an acct at Oly now, but if you can bet either one at any time and have the choice, I am sending Oly some $$$$$$$ tomorrow, that's for sure. Why would you even choose the puck line, you don't get much value in em, as much as you do with the Canadian lines.

Will you even get this bet in tomorrow?
NO -320
YES +260
___________
Will the Greek or Chris read your post then change line immediately??
YES -380
NO +320
__________
Is this a very bad line?
YES - 3400
NO +2600
____________
If you bet this game, will they honor it if you win..
YES -300
NO +250
________
Rail, 95% of books have ev/0.5 and 1 book or 2 will have 0.5/1. That line is really Chi +0.5 -125. You are getting them at Chi +1 even. A half a goal is worth roughly 50 cents in hockey. So since the line is Chi +0.5 -125, you should have it at Chi +1 -175.. But instead, you have it at Chi +1 even. And you say that 75 cents is not a bad line?
.
That is like saying that if your Angels were +105, and some book had them at +180, would that be a bad line? NO DIFFERENCE here sir..
Good luck tomorrow, and I am willing to lay any odds that line will be different when you wake up tomorrow. And if you put it in already, just make sure you keep checking your email every 15 minutes for the notification of a cancelled bet.. And whatever you do, don't put in the other side of your play until 1 minute till they drop the puck at center ice, so you don't get stuck with one big bet on the other side, or be forced to have a 20 cent negative scalp.
Good luck and fill me in tomorrow. I am really curious, but don't hold your breath.

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><font size="-1">quote:</font><HR> It cannot be canceled and it is not a bad line, they must pay or you can take it up with the attorney general of California. I am glad you were able to get down and I hope you hit the middle Sick.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Now that is hilarious!
Now that is hilarious!
Hell, I middle and even I know a bad line when I see it. Weak lines, fine, outright mistakes, forget it.
Rail, anyone trying to get away by betting on a bad line with the working part of half a brain would know 2 things: you don't cover it until just before game time when you know it will be honored, and you certainly don't post it in a forum that the book is known for a fact to read.
You already fvcked up on #2 - did you also fvck up on #1?
p.s. Spiro might honor that line, but minimum he'll have a very good idea who you are if he sees when the bets were made and compares it to the times you posted - not very swift, Rail.

Well, guess what? Just like the obvious, Olympic has now brought that line down to (ev/0.5) from (1/1.5).lol
I guess it wasn't a good line afterall, huh Rail?
Now I wonder if your bet will stand, or did you already get that email?
I just don't see how Spiro will keep your bet, UNLESS you only have like 200 on it. But if you have 1k or 2k, forget it, that is my opinion.
Keep checking your email..
