---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not a very good night, first bad night I've had in over 3 weeks. The NCAA Over hit a cold spell for 2 minutes late that really cost us. Kansas never looked like they were going to cover.

Miami teased us late but blew a late lead in a game that was close throughout, Houston a big lead early but after the 1Q was outplayed.  Toronto up 2 with 30 seconds, NY misses a shot and Toronto can't grab the rebound.  NY hits a wide open 3 for the cover. Grab the rebound and we have a good chance at the cover. Lost both 50/50 games and that spells a losing day. We've had our share of breaks over the last couple weeks, tonight we came back to earth a bit. Not to worry, on to tomorrow.

                                         NCAAB
Longwood/Charleston Southern UNDER 153: (24-5, 0-0)

                                          NBA

Add Ons in the morning.

Have a great day and Good Luck with your action.

9AM ADD ONS:
                                          NBA
Utah -1: (32-13, 2-2)
Phoenix/Memphis UNDER 209.5: (55-24, 11-6)
          This total must stay below 210. 209.5 is the limit. Wait for this line to settle, if it goes to 210+ it is a PASS.

Mississippi St +13 was a play, but their leading scorer/guard is out tonight so I'm passing. If anyone was interested in this game the numbers are (169-68, 12-5). Its officially a PASS.

Hoops Blog Record: 222-172: 56.3% (+33.75)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We scratched out a winning day, going a combined 5-4 good for 1/2 unit or so. Folks we won't kill it every day, or every week for that matter. There is nothing wrong with taking a small win and moving on to the next day. Tough beat with New Orleans or we go 6-3, the margin between a decent day and a good day can be very slim at times. Iona closed +3 and missed a 3 pt shot at the buzzer for the push. When I put "Dog Only", I will grade on the closing line. 

These last 2 weeks have been crazy good, and I hope all of you took advantage of the hot streak. This week we went 36-18, picking up an incredible 17.1 units.  The NCAAB went 18-12 and the NBA 18-6. The previous week  we went 35-22, picking up 10+ units. NCAAB 17-12 and the NBA 18-10. Over the last 2 weeks the NCAA went 35-24 while the NBA went 36-16 for a combined 71-40 (27+ units).  We had only 2 losing days. The NBA has really picked up, something I suggested would happen a couple weeks ago and it hasn't disappointed. 

I had a couple folks send me a gratuity, and I would like to thank those of you that did. We have made a lot of money these last 2 weeks specifically, and really since Day 1. Over 33 units in less than 2 months, lets keep it rolling. 

Not all lines are out, so this is what I have so far.  I expect to have several add ons tomorrow morning.

                                       NCAAB
Kansas -13: (70-25, 7-2)

                                        NBA
Atlanta +5: (45-18, 1-4)
Miami -1: (74-33, 0-1) FAV ONLY
Houston -10: (17-4, 4-1)

Have a great day and Good Luck with your action.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I graded Cleveland as a 1U loss. Steve posted a comment that it was too late to get off the game due to the line shift.  You could go back to the Saturday comments section to read my response. Going forward I will be much more specific regarding line moves, player availability, etc.. Sometimes I assume too much, thinking that everyone is aware of player status. Going forward I will be much more mindful of those types of things.

Saturdays are hectic, and plays will pop up throughout the day unlike any other day of the week.  Going forward this will be my Saturday schedule for putting out plays: Initial list early morning, 9-9:30am add ons, one last add on list at Noon.  All times PST.  If anything pops up after that time I just won't post them. This goes for the basketball season only. 

Today was another fantastic day. NBA went 6-2 with the NCAAB going 8-5 for a combined 14-7 record. That is good for 6.65 using -105 or 6.3 with a -110. Whatever your price it was another outstanding day.  This week we are absolutely crushing it, a 31-14 record and a 16.3/15.6 unit profit. Last week we picked up 10+ units, so over the last 2 weeks we have picked up over 26 units of profit. 

I have a PayPal Donate button on the right side of the page.  If anyone would like to leave a gratuity they can do so with that link and it would be greatly appreciated. Its set at $20, and to those of you that have done so previously I appreciate it. Some of you have sent a bit more by donating multiple times. I'm not trying to get rich, but it does offset my expenses.  I use a couple sites that I use for my system analysis, and it costs me a monthly fee to use them. There are people charging $300 for the rest of NCAA thru March Madness.  $25/day, $80/week, $200/month. You would have a hard time finding anybody on the Site Promotions forum, or the entire forum for that matter, putting out the results that I have been doing and will continue to do.

Here is what I have for Sunday so far:

                                    NCAAB
Xavier +1.5: (59-16, 8-4) DOG ONLY
Iona +2: (35-8, 3-0) DOG ONLY
Wait for these lines to settle before playing. If they flip its a NO PLAY.

                                    NBA

Toronto -4.5: (69-35, 21-12)
San Antonio/Los Angeles OVER 212: (70-31, 21-12)

Lets close this week out strong.  Have a great day and as always, good luck with your action.

Before I get to the recap, I want to welcome those folks that are new to my site. If you want to know more about what I do, I have a background post on the right side of the page for your review. 

I keep it pretty simple.  I post the plays and let the results speak for themselves. No cute buzzwords. Locks, Inside Information or Sources, 50* specials, Vegas, etc... The usual promotional jargon. I let the record speak, nothing else really matters.

Just another fantastic night, I hope you folks were on board for all of the plays today. I added the 2 plays in the SA/LAC game this morning, I hope you checked back and got them. 

8-2 on the heels of a 6-1 the night before makes us 14-3 over the last 2 days. The NCAA continues to be phenomenal. Let's keep it rolling.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We start off the second half of the NBA season with a solid 4-1 night, combined with the 2-0 NCAAB we went 6-1 with the basketball. A tremendous night on the hardwood. The NHL split out but playing by playing dogs we won a fraction of a unit tonight, giving those of you that played the NHL the last couple nights a 1.5 unit win. 

We are back in the black for the week after tonight's 6-1 hoops, as we continue to build on the momentum from the last several weeks. I really hope you guys don't back off after a small losing night or nights, its a grind and if you stay with it you will build your bankroll. The basketball has been tremendous as the record will show.

I hope everyone is checking the site as early as possible every day. Tonight the Hou/NO Over was a push for some, a win for others, and if you waited until very late you lost.  I got 227 on the overnight line, and looking at the line movement that line didn't get to 228 until 12:30 PST/3:30 EST. There was plenty of time to grab that 227. At worst a push with 228. I've said it many times, grab these lines ASAP. We are usually on the right side of the games and lines more often than not will move against us. 

Here is what I have so far:

                                           NBA
Utah -2.5: (71-35, 14-10)
Memphis/Indiana UNDER 207: (63-24, 17-9)
Los Angeles Lakers/Oklahoma City OVER 221: (24-9, 4-2)

                                            NCAAB
Dartmouth -2: (41-17, 9-6)
Saint Peter's -6: (74-30, 8-6)
Harvard -5.5: (91-45, 10-4)
Siena/Monmouth UNDER 156: (95-40, 35-21)
California -18: (69-25, 6-2) If this line goes above -18 its a PASS.

Any additions will be posted in the morning. Thank you all for your continued support of the site, and good luck with your action. 

ADD ONS 10:25AM:
San Antonio -4: (62-19, 6-5) (71-35, 14-10) (31-13, 1-2)
San Antonio/LA Clippers UNDER 210: (75-26, 0-0)

This is the final list. Have a great day!!

1-1-1 with the push very hard to take. Up 12 at half, ND St loses the lead only to get it back. Up 2 with a min left, they get a stop and get fouled. They make both Fts and now its 4. Another stop and 2 more FTs with 5 seconds left.  Make them both and we cover, but we split the pair...and you just knew what would happen next. Dude dribbles down the floor, put up a contested off balance 30 footer that hit bottom as time expires for the push.  Hard to complain too much after the DePaul miracle Sunday, but we have taken the worst of the last second decisions this year.  The NHL game with Edmonton scored nicely as a +120 or so dog if anyone played that game. On to Thursday, where the Association gets back into action.

                                         NBA
Denver 1H -4: (55-19, 11-4)
Houston -3: (61-28, 8-7) (53-27, 1-3)
Houston/New Orleans OVER 227: (55-34, 11-5)
Cleveland -10: (17-3, 4-0)
Cleveland 1H -6: (107-54, 4-2)

                                          NCAAB
Northeastern +4: (70-31, 7-7)
Southern Mississippi +17 (62-28, 7-9) (167-68, 10-5)

NHL plays would be Calgary +127 and Arizona as a big dog of +237.
I will post any additional plays in the morning. Have a great day and good luck with your action.

9:30AM:
NO ADDITIONS.  This is the final card.

This looks like the final play list.  Just the 3 games today. NBA starts back up tomorrow. In the NHL Edmonton looks like a decent play at +120 tonight. Haven't been posting it, but its actually been pretty good lately. Have a great day and good luck with your action.

2-3 night as we had a chance at that Under at halftime. However those guys scored 100 in the 2H for the Over. An unremarkable 2-3 night, not a disaster after having a nice run the last 2 weeks. 

I'll post Tuesday's games in the morning. I had a long night at work and just want to get some sleep. Doesn't look like a big card so far.
