---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just another outstanding night on the NBA hardwood, we went 7-3 to put us at 23-11 for the week good for 11.2 units.......and we started the week 0-4. The combined NCAA/NBA has been phenomenal, one of my better overall years. Its up 56 units and that is with the 15 unit loss in the NCAA post season. The NBA has really picked up, starting out a little flat and then the last couple months really getting good. Similar to last year.

I know some people aren't comfortable playing a high volume of games, it puts a chunk of bankroll in play most days. However, you don't need to hit high win percentages to make a very nice profit. Take our NBA for example. We are up 30 units. If you played 100 games, you would need to go 67-33 to win 30 units. Thats 67%, do you have any idea how difficult that would be?? How about 300 games?  172-128 is 31.2 units good for 57.3%. What if you played 500 games?? You would have to go 276-224.  That is 55.2%. 

We have played 712 games, going 383-329 for 53.7%. On its face that doesn't sound very good. Now, we have hit a few 2U plays along the way.  The point being that contrary to what a lot of people think.......that playing a lot of games is a bad idea.......that line of thinking couldn't be farther from the truth. My win percentage is actually low for what I usually do, yet I still have won a nice profit on the year. As long as you take care of your bankroll, playing a high volume of games is a good thing. You know what is a bad thing?  Losing more than winning, and that goes for those playing 50 games, 200 games, or 700 games. The idea is to pick more winners than losers, and if you can do that then the more games you play the better. Its just basic math.

Oregon and the UNDER popped up as a play for the Final Four.  Its not an official play, my post season has been awful and I'm not playing any more NCAA. I'll take the nice profits we've won and bank it. My NBA plays haven't appeared on my database yet, so I will post those either later tonight or early in the morning.

I hope you all are enjoying this winning streak and making some good money. I get a little boastful on my thread in site promotions, but thats just to get a little exposure and to try to get people to come over to the site and join us. I fully understand how good we are running right now and appreciate the good times. I'll be back later with the Saturday NBA slate.

                                          NBA
Orlando +3.5: (35-13, 6-3) Up To 3.5. 4 or more is a PASS
Orlando/Brooklyn UNDER 222: (35-11, 9-1)
Los Angeles Lakers +15: (75-35, 4-4)

The UNDER play is 10-0 when the opponent is on a BTB. Looks like a very nice play. 

10AM ADD ON:
Atlanta/Chicago 1H UNDER 97: (59-17, 2-2)

I meant to put UNDER, not OVER on the Oregon game.  Oregon +5 and UNDER 153 are the plays that popped up if you are interested. 

Light night, just the 3 games. Enjoy your Saturday.
