Got the KC and TBAY +1.5 runs, KC almost won, as well as TB. Stranded runners in the MINN/TB game kept an under in control.
"Line Support" + - for the two best bets of the evening (both won)
TBAY
MINN -165(e) -165(o) -155 -157 -155 -155(gt) = E -10 -8 -8 -10
Play was the dog (TB) +1.5, with a possible win, due to low LS for MINN.
FINAL = MINN 3-2
KC
BAL -135(e) -125(o) -123 -122 -119(gt) = -10 -12 -13 -16
Play was the dog (KC) +1.5, with a possible win, due to low LS for BALT.
FINAL = BALT 2-1
21-10 ytd, tonight if you go straight-up, 2-2. Unit-wise, went -1 unit, but this does NOT include the parlay and straight amounts bet on these two dogs.
The 10.5 over was a straight up loser, not a factor with parlay.
So, another pretty good night. Sorry to see any of you get sucked and f**ked by the ATL game. That was a chump game deluxe. Did weather play a factor, or was it simply a case of LINE-JUMPING, as I like to call it?
Again, PUBLIC money, PUBLIC perception, I mean, c'mon a 8-1 team vs. a 1-8 team. Logic creates an autonomic response, as if WASH didn't exist.
THESE are the games to avoid. The ones that look AUTOMATIC and TOO EASY. Gotta go with your gut, if it looks too easy, no line-movement at all, plus a slightly LOWER opening line vs. the EARLY line (-300 early vs. -282 open), then progression thru-out the day rose to NO MORE than 300, then you have the recipe for a set-up. This isn't a case of hindsight, more a case of "I've seen this, felt this, before."
Good games tomorrow, I see a couple of nice dogs already, if the ML moves accordingly. Let's watch, and see.
