joe you broke the bank tonight

tomorrow he chases with dayton

Dayon minus 1, 200$
Missou St under 126.5, 200$

50$ reverse Dayton minus 1, UNC under 151
50$ reverse Dayton minus 1, Missou St under 126.5
50$ reverse UNC under 151, Dayton over 142



As of now no NBA tonight, he just called it in, said he wanted to lock in those lines, I said fine.
What do you think gales?

this kid is going to lose , you are going to make so much coin , you can hire me to be your chauffeur

the nit really i have no opinion

you just can't bail out playing reverses everynight , nobody hits above 55% in any basketball games over an extended peroid , he's gotta hit both to win ......tough spot

i have no nba picks tonight, if he plays a lot of chalk again tonight in the nba he will proably lose , my only play would be a small take on the thunder

Well he would have to sweep tonight to win exactly $1000... Clearly if Dayton losses, that is giant for me, because then he can at best only split 2 of his reverses and losses the straight $200 wager. Today he said he wont chase, and his bets confirm that, this is the first time hes played $50 reverses and not $100. He also said if he takes a hit tonight he might just stop and settle up Saturday. I trust him, and I like Dayton tonight so maybe he will do good.

if you want to keep this guy going , you want him to win Dayton tonight and miss some of the other games , you don't want to send him to the cemetary every night

what you have to bea ready for is if he gets down big he may go to the 4 or 5 team parlay and try to take a shot to get everything back in 1 shot , that might happen on say the final 4 on sat if he is way behind

He is going away for a week Sunday, we agreed 3 weeks ago "this week" ends friday night, and if hes down he cant bet the final four till he settles.... He really wantes to bet the Final 4 and title game, but he knew well ahead of time he would have to settle up first, he basicley has 4 days Today-Fri, we are getting together Saturday morning, already set, up either way. I almost want him to get smashed tonight be down like 1700 and settle up and be done, I will have made about 3k in a month if that happens, and Ill be happy with all of it.

this combination of bets is a sure sign that you can't win , if he goes 1/2 the most likely probablity he is adding to his losses when there is no need to

just play the 2 games straight or just play a larger reverse

what is the figure now?

Its weird cause if he sweeps its exactly $1000, then Im assuming he might just pass on the next 3 days and feel good about himself, he was down 540 at one point, got it up to plus 250, and now this.... It was an $800 swing his way and now another $1350 back my way.

Right now, he is Minus $1015.

Chasin with revs..... the sure road to ruin. GL KP

Gales my guy cant help himself. He just called in $200 on the Pacers minus 6.5 and 50$ reverse Pacers minus 6.5 and suns minus 3.5

What do you think?

Sounds like the guy needs an intervention.

When he called we talked for about 15 minutes, I told him his number is getting high and to not put me in a bad place "because he thinks Im calling everything in" He said its not a problem, if he gets to or over $1500 he will stop and come pay me and end it.

I hope you are right, but usually they can pay the first couple of weeks. He will go bad and not pay sooner or later. Your best case scenario is him losing a few hundred a week for an extended period of time. He is such a crappy gambler he has no option but to stiff you. I know you don't like me but ask Gales what he thinks, this is what is going to happen. Gales has seen this before. Get as much out of him as you can because you will eventually get stiffed. Good luck

I highly doubt he will stiff me, hes a local guy. I know where he works and I know people who know him. I dont think he wants to be embarressed. He also dosent really like his girlfriend knowing, so I dont think he wants to deal with that.

Assuming UNC stays under and really looks like its going to, he won a little over $500 TONIGHT, his number going into tomorrow is minus $555.

Now that we know these facts, you're good.....there's no way he'll stiff you. :rolleyes:

Gales where are you? Hes going heavy NBA tonight....

what does he got?
