I'm Canadian, so obviously a Raptors fan haha.. Anyways tonight vs the Mavs will be very very tough. The Mavs are coming off a loss to the Hornets and 3 days rest, Raptors played and beat the Hornets last night. -7.5 looks great straight up I think, if not A teaser down to -3.5 with Denver +7 looks amazing to me.

Total looks like it could go either way, not touching it. Any thoughts on this matchup would be great, i have been betting for a while now with ok results (I play poker for my main source of income) also have lurked in this place for a long time, haven't posted much. Just looking to learn, i know things like bankrolll management and understanding variance are very important. Anyways gl to all you!!

Oh one question, are SBR points only awarded to you when someone ships some to you? Thx

[suicidekings]

you get 2 per day for signing in, 4 per day for posting at least once, and then there are bonuses for hitting certain milestone number of posts. Then if you go to the points forum there are a variety of SBR members running sportbooks with the currency being points.

About the mavs/raps game tonight I agree with your analysis. One problem though, the raptors are probably going to be the most unpredictable team this year. There isn't really a good way to analyse their game and know what team is going to play.

Bosh shot 9/9 last night and that was a huge factor in their performance. If he doesn't show up I think the raps are going to be pretty hopeless no matter who they're playing. However, they have beaten an underperforming cavs this year which shows that they do show up in big games.

The mavs loss to the team the raps just dismantled may be a concern as well. I wouldn't be worried about the raps being tired or anything as it is still early in the season and the team is pretty young.

There are too many questions so early on to get a good grasp on this game. It's either going to be a close buzzer beater game or a mavs blowout. I don't think playing a teaser with the mavs at -1.5 has much value in it compared to something like taking the celtics at -6.5

BOL, let us know what you decide
