Allready cahsed on Magic tonight.
Later on the card i got:

Lakers -6.5
Celtics -10.5

think I'll make a play on the thunder too.

What's your leans?

[laban82]

do you mean over 206.5?

[Danskeren]

do you mean over 206.5?

Talking to me?
- If so, then it's a play on thunder +3 I'm considering.

[laban82]

No. BL plays over 196.5 but when I see it it is over 206.5 so just wondered if I should pass on 206.5

[BL]

Congratulations on your Magic win! I cashes the over in that game so I am pleased, too
I like the Lakers and the Celts to win big tonight. I made a play on Lakers 1Q (2x) as they will come out angry tonight and simply roll over the hawks.
My lean in the Celtics-game is Boston to win but NO to cover. I would not recommend to bet on the Celts ATS because it's the biggest spread for this matchup since years plus the line not moving with almost 80% on the Celts.

[Danskeren]

I see . The lakers 1st Q seems like a good play too.
Try and have a look at the Thunder, and tell me what you think.

Uh sorry my fault! Of course it's Memphis@Denver Over 206,5

Portland b2b plus in this matchup the hometeam is 9-1 SU in last 10 games. Oklahoma looks like to be the play as the spread looks quite low if you compare it with the spreads in the past! I really like it but don't know if I'll add a play on Oklahoma as I already booked Portland 1Q

[Danskeren]

i see. Just hate to overthink a game - if you know what i mean.

[williams22]

Danskeren-
I like the Thunder here, but I'm only going to go small on them as I'm not sure if they are for real yet. They should be ATS killers this year, but I need to see how they do against stronger competition. I'll take them for 1 unit here.

[BL]

best of luck. Let's hope Portland wins 1Q but will lose big the entire match

[travisowain]

BL, thats solid insight on the line not moving but 80% of the bets on the celts. linemakers totally egging us on to keep betting on the celts. i teased them down to -3.5 and have them in a 3rd quarter bet. im real high on 3Q bets with solid teams who know how to win. its the quarter that most correlates with a win and has the highest pt differential for the winning team 3rd>1st>2nd>4th

[italiano22]

if u dnt mind me asking...how do u recieve points on sbr and wat r they used for?

Travis this sounds really interesting. As I like to play 1st quarters I am really interested in getting feeling for betting the 3rd.
Celtics 3Q looks like a really solid bet based on these statistics:

Last year Boston was leading 58 times after 2ndQ. They were leading 65 times after Q3. Hornets were leading 45 times after Q2 and tonly 43 times after Q3. So there really seems to be a trend. You got more statistics or insight? You really caught my attention on those bets

Check out my thread, you'll see I've been making quite a profit off of 3rd quarters. I bet them at halftime though, not prior to the game. In games with large spreads (like the Celtics tonight) I love it because the favorite generally tries to make a strong push in the 3rd so the starters can rest in the 4th.

I should note, my Cavs are one team I don't bet much in the 3rd quarter, as they normally have a let down after halftime.

[BL]

Thanks williams, I really have to take a deeper look at your 3rdQ plays.

I played them in a parlay with chargers -7 2nd half.
Lost big on Jets and giants tonight, hopefully i can get some of it back!

Deal .

[italiano22]

thanks alot man

[williams22]

I don't have the numbers, but I'm pretty sure the 3rd quarter is the highest scoring, on average, yet the linesmakers generally make the o/u for each quarter pretty similar.

this is the best i could do right now. i have a test tomorrow, otherwise id be compiling 3rd quarter pt differentials/spread ratios all night long!!! its worked solid for me this year so far, i know we are only a couple games in, but the teams who know who to win will win the 3rd and separate themselves more so than any other quarter. i played overseas/D1 and its just one of those things good teams do (trust me, ive been on teams who cant do it! and we sucked)

[BL]

thanks a lot

Where can you bet quarters during halftime? I always thought they close the quarters line at the start of game.

I use 5Dimes.

I'm taking the Celtics -2 in the 3rd.

I didn't bet Celts 3Q because I think it's even better to bet on teams 3Q which did not cover the first half. Hope you cash your ticket! I am watching my Portland 1Q play right now... up by 10, 2:30 to go

Good call sitting this one out. Celtics look slow out there. Definitely not the same team that beat up on Chicago and Charlottle

[travisowain]

so 5 dimes will let you bet the 3rd quarter at half time? what about the 2nd quarter after the game has already started? or the 4th? just wondering, cause im on bookmaker and they close the quarter bets during the game

[Danskeren]

That celtic game was heart breaking . lost by ½ point..
- worst day in many months. Really got killed in the NFl tonight.



Hope you manage to do better tonight!

[ztballer]

Hey BL, how did you know that the total was going over with the Lakers play?

[williams22]

Sorry for the delayed response. 5Dimes lets you bet the 3rd and 4th quarters at halftime, as well as 2nd half lines. You can't bet the 2nd or 4th quarters mid-game. My system has been very profitable so far for selecting proper 3rd quarter Over/Unders. I find the 4th quarter much more difficult to predict, and therefore normally avoid it.

[BL]

Kobe Bryant Could have been a great day if he didn't miss the last shot in 1Q

Lakers 1Q 220 to win 200 LOSER
1Q Raptors -0,5 110 to win 100 LOSER
Den-Mem OVER 206,5 110 to win 100 WINNER
Orl-Tor OVER 200 220 to win 200 WINNER
1Q Portland -0,5 110 to win 100 WINNER



Starting bankroll: 2000 €

Actual bankroll: 1965 €

won/lost/push: 13 / 11 / 0

Hey BL, how did you know that the total was going over with the Lakers play?

noticed some RLM as only 60% were betting the over what is very low for a total and the line went up 2 points at most books. Didn't bet on it as I was leaning the under before

[BL]

Nets@Bobcats
Bobcats -6,5 240 to win 200

Here my first play of the day! A lot of smart money on Charlotte tonight! bought half a point.
Highest spread so far for this matchup played in Charlotte. The public is pounding Nets for sure but the
line already moved in the other direction at most books! I liked Bobcats to win this one before the spread came out.
After I saw it was at -7 I knew it is the right play! Don't be fooled and bet on the Nets. This one has Blowout written all
over it !

[BL]

anybody has an opinion on the UNDER 203 at Sacramento
