Default Jmathes +30 Unit Playoff Guarantee!

I don't make alot of guarantees like some people on SBR but I can stand by my word on this one. Since basketball is my specialty I will make atleast 30 units over the NBA playoffs. Jump on board early because this money making will only last about 2 months until the playoffs are over.

My picks will be on a unit scale which will range from 1-5 units. Alot of people don't like the unit system but with proper money management and good discipline you can make a great deal of money. Please tail with caution...GOOD LUCK!!!

I'm in for the fun. Of course I missed the Chi game since I did not read your post until after it started but cashed in on the Over with Clev. I'm hoping you know what your doing with all these 3 teamers. Seems like a lot of what if's. Either way I look forward to my 30 units.

Does it make sense to buy points to equal your lines? I'm getting almost a half point higher or lower than your posted lines at my book right now.

it depends on the game and how i feel. the only 2 games i would consider buying pts would be with atlanta and new orleans covering their respective spreads. i jumped on these games 2 days ago before the lines jumped and feel very strong about them. i would post these plays as soon as i see them but the thread gets faded and its pointless to post them here. if you want me to email you the plays earlier send me an email and let me know your email address. here are the games and the run down on what i think you should do:



utah & los angeles over 209.5 3.5 units this will go over 220 so no pt buying should be needed

los angeles -11 2.5 units the lakers will probably win this game by 15+ points. its the jazz on the road

atlanta -4.5 3.5 units this game is questionable. i believe that you will be ok but ill leave it up to you

miami & atlanta over 185.5 3 units dont think buying pts is needed. my spreadsheet simulates this at 197

new orleans +6 2.5 units this game is questionable and could come down to the wire so maybe buy half pt

philly & orlando under 192 2 units this isnt a terribly strong play but simulated total is 185

philly +10 .5 unit this is strictly an action play. only betting .5 unit and don't think a half pt buy is needed

i am trying to stay away from doing write-ups for this thread because i am giving these picks away for free. i will say that pubic perception isn't everything. even though all four games went over yesterday that doesn't mean anything today. 90% of the betting public bet the under on the cleveland & detroit game yesterday and lost. if you did your homework and looked at trends it appeared the game was going to be very low scoring-WRONG. the sharps and myself were on the over yesterday in that game and won it big. the nice thing about it is that i balanced my bookie on that game and he payed me +110 for the bet. im not always right but 65% for nba plays means plus units. please know that my games are on a 1-5 scale meaning 5 is the strongest. with that being said 2 units isn't terribly strong but at the same time, its a decent play. you can't win them all but you can you can definitely win most of em. good luck buddy!

Nice writeup!

I agree with you on the Utah and ATL overs......scary thing is if Utah tries to slow the pace.

Otherwise great info!

a little dancing with the bookie yesterday but still came out on top. tonight's games are small action plays but take advantage of the future plays because those are going to cash big time. i found these on 2-3 different books all with the same price give or take a penny. good luck.

My book has the Den series at -430? I also get the Lakers at -105 to win it all. Still worth going after in your opinion?

I wouldn't jump on either one because of the risk/reward factor. I think that there is a very good chance the Lakers will beat the Cavs in the finals and Denver will win their series but the line has already moved way too much. The Nuggets will definitely win their series but -430 is a terrible reward so I wouldn't bet it. I caught it late last night and couldn't pass this up . The series will probably be done in 5 games and 6 at most. Sorry you caught it so late. Good luck!

Just to let everyone know I am going for the homerun today. If I hit the big games I will automatically gain atleast 12.5 units. If I miss one of the 2 bigger games I will be down slightly in units for the day but the reward here is too good to pass up. I locked in this parlay last night with my bookie and also found it on several sites (5dimes, betjamaica,wagerweb,etc..)

now why would you do that parlay with 2 same plays + a play with opposite bets ?!?! ´just parlay denver -5.5 and atlanta -5.

got about the same plays though with denver and atlanta. and sixers should cover, too.

BOL

because one unit pays out +600. denver and atlanta are very solid picks and if i win those first 2 games i can't lose the parlay. you will see my friend.

If Denver and Atlanta are solid picks then you might as well do a 2 team parlay for 200 winning $520 instead of two 3 team parlay which in your case one will lose and winnning you only $500. This way you win $20 more and if either Denver or Atlanta loses then the results would've been the same regardless whether you played a 2 or 3 team parlay -200 dollars.
