NBA Betting April 2010

[eberetta1]

Starting April fresh record 0-0 . won $0.


------------------------------moneyline
Portland Trailblazers...-9......-475
LA Clippers...............193.5..+375

Risking $24 to win $5 choosing Portland Trailblazers moneyline.

I feel Portland Trailblazers has everything it takes to blaze a trail using hair clippers
with an 87-109 win the last time these two teams met.

This is the time of season where teams that already have a lock on the playoffs rest up their players. So this could in all actuality be a foolish bet. Looking for my team to win in the 98-87 range.

Cashed in one of my sportsbooks that had over $300 in it. Just got a moneygram for $200 same day. Left $90 in it so I can work it to over $200 again. Too bad the place charged $34 for processing fee. Last sportsbook charged a $9 processing fee. Another thing to think about when you choose a sportsbook.

I'm not much into sport betting, but I think I will start again, just for the thrill of sweating.
I'm usually betting on soccer and tennis but I also did some NBA playoffs with success (i'm a Lakers fan)

Anyway I'm not sure what sites americans have access to, but I'm using bwin.com and bet365.com. You should check and see if they accept US. They don't charge any fees.. I was using Visa debit for both deposit and w/d but they have other methods too.

Last night's results

Portland 93
LA Clippers 85

Portland moneyline bet won $5.

April record 1-0. April winnings $5.

Hey kingmotan,
I probably need to give them a bankcard of mine, but that is petrifying in case the government confiscates my bankcard for gambling. So, so far sticking to the Moneygram method of receiving funds. I do have a bankcard that has so little I would not mind it being confiscated. Thanks for the suggestion, I might go that route before my next withdrawal.

And be careful betting the Lakers this year(if you choose). They have not been playing with the dominance that they have showed in years past. I think they have received so few good draft picks due to their dynasty that other teams have caught up to their level of play.

Believe him King, I am a lifetime Lakers fan, even go to the games but this years team will in all likely hood be tossed from the playoffs in the first round, no joke they are playing like weak sauce

The money line is at -245 for tonights game so...

I am risking $12 to win $5 that the Chicago Bulls defeat NJ Nets.
Last meeting Chicago won by 23 points so not much risk here, except Chicago is not the home team this game, oh well. Chicago is favored by 5.5 in the point spread.

Both teams played Milwaukee recently with Chicago losing by 5 and NJ Nets losing by 19. BOL.

Friday night's results...

Chicago Bulls 116
NJ Nets 127

Chicago moneyline lost $12.

April record 1-1. April total, down $7.


Had a good day today in a few freerolls. I was in the money 4 times good for
$4(5th place), $6(1st place), $6(4th place), and $3(6th place). Not a bad Sunday at all.

Earned my free $20 chip at Full Tilt's 9th day of their Take 2 promotion last night playing Rush Poker 9 days in a row earning 5 points each day. On the 5th day of the Take 2 promotion Full Tilt also gave me a $5 chip. So I earned a total of $25 in their Take 2 promotion.

That Full Tilt account was empty until ScrawnyBob put a $20 in there the first week in March for me winning 1st place in the February posting contest. I did not know if I had enough in FullTilt to win the full amount offered in the Take 2 promotion until Scrawny Bob put in another $15 early last week for my 2nd place finish in th March posting contest. It made me know I would not run out of funds at FullTilt, since I had lost 6 bucks during the first 4 days of the Take 2 promotion and was down to $14 with 5 days of play remaining, I won $6 bucks the 5th day, so I ended up not needing the $15 as backup, but it sure was nice to have it just in case.

Have you ever tried for horse racing as, it just gives you the best betting experience, bet365 is no doubt a best site to make yourself updated with all kind of online games betting and mainly soccer.

Horse racing is one of my favourite and I would like to know all the strategies that are necessary while stepping into online betting.

Thanks

Horse racing has too many upsets for my style of betting to succeed. The jockeys pull the reins and prevent my choice from getting the job done. Even at Tampa Bay Downs, where I did most of my betting, they had to lay off 4 jockeys for colluding a while back.

[Peteyweestro]

Besides the fact that the favorites only win 33% even when it is a straight up race and the jocks and trainers aren't pulling fast ones to set up a huge payout down the road with a beaten favorite they keep stuffing until the public gives up on the nag then they finally turn it loose while at 45 to 1 or something

It is true that it has too many upsets but, still it is a real thrill to experience this as, people are so much into it that they just cant stop doing it and they wins too. As you mentioned, that some illegal activities happens as in every game, large colluding takes place and players and some senior authorities too had a lay off but still game never stops so, there is no problem in doing betting but, it should be a proper way.

Thanks
