    Default Potential boxing play for SBRers this weekend

    It's a pair of fighters only diehard boxing gurus know of. Sort of like those who were in the know on NMState in college football this past weekend. Your putting your neck out when you just give one pick, because us sharps are dependent on volume but I'll put it out there when the line comes out Wed or Thurs. You may kindly ignore if desired. Anything -200 or better will be acceptable but I'm hoping for the oddsmakers to overlook my guy a bit and have it close to even or a plus #.

    "I shall be telling this with a sigh
    Somewhere ages and ages hence:
    Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--
    I took the one less traveled by,
    And that has made all the difference"

    Thank you for the (lack of) information.

    Hey koko, "You may kindly ignore if desired"

    I was going to wait to see which sites will even carry the line and get better info on it. The intentions of my post were good. Basically saying I see a nice deal coming up in what I specialize in before the lines are even out.. and I will share...

    Punchy knows his stuff and I will play it.

    Punch bring up thread when it gets close to fight time.

    I think you need to get you scarcasm meter checked.

    You might want to back off on the name calling as there's no reason for that.

    Seriously, though... What would you think if I said...

    "I know a horse that is running next week. I dont know what the odds (go off or even morning line) will be,and I dont know if even if any book will allow you to bet on the race, but, if someone does take action on it, I'll think it will be an overlay.

    I'm not going to tell any of the specifics now, but I will do in a couple of days"

    koko I see punchy's point,

    Sometimes I like games but will not release them here until 5 minutes before they go off because I do not want guys betting my play and moving the line too much.

    I don't even know what an overlay is.... ummm from my experience , there is a 90% chance that there will be a line on at least one of the major sites, and a good chance that my man will be overlooked. I was leary of overpromising and underdelivering. Also buttmunch( sorry, couldn't refrain) maybe an oddsmaker glances at these sites and does a little more research if he sees a name being talked about before the line is set, particularly in a non-mainstream sport. It was just a tip to go back to the thread on wed/thursday if you want to add a little more spice to your weekend. The fight is Friday nite... and the idea is to lock in the overlooked fighter early on..

    True, I will put my wagers down and then share immediately though, perhaps if enough money goes on my guy, the opponent becomes so attractively priced, the option to lock in a profit arises.

    Case in point , this past weekend..... Carlos Quinatana comes out at +350, his opponent Cotto -400, toss a cool 500 bucks for $1750 pay out on the dog Quintana. Mucho dollars came in on Quintana and Cotto was available for a long time at -210!!!!!!! Throw $1525 on Cotto at -210, and it's over $200 bucks no matter who wins. The oddsmakers actually got this one right with the initial line as Cotto blew out his guy, but they didn't anticipate how the public was thinking...

    I hear Rocky Balboa is going to fight again starting this weekend, or soon. Sure hope Apollo Creed doesn't hit him too hard and bust open Balboa's latest nip/tuck work

    Can you tell me if I'll be able to watch the fight without par-per-view? If so, I'm even more interested to hear the play.
