Darryl's daily double

[DarrylParsons]

LOL, thanks Mr. O for the confidence boost but I can't help but notice the bare facts...

A coin flipping monkey would do better than 9-12-1 about 2/3 of the time. So just imagine one of these :monkey: is supplying the picks...still I'm confident we'll get to where only 1/3 of the monkeys can beat us! Patience is the key.

Yesterday another split (monkey's good at that too lol), let's see if we go 2-0 for a change...

YTD 10-13-1 -3.70 units

New Orleans +13 -107 (Hol)
Stanford -1.5 +101 (Pin)

GLTA!

Hey Darryl

You have the hard part down (money managment), the pics will come. Never underestimate the Home Pup.
GL, I've decided to jump on with you today, as you are due.
Bud

 

[DarrylParsons]

Thanks Bud. It's nice to know I've got some believers even though I haven't proven myself yet. Another split, another day, another 0.06 units. Here we go with what I believe are solid picks for a small card Tuesday...

YTD: 11-14-1 -3.76 units

Tuesday's plays:

Fordham +18 -101 (Pin)
Illinois Chicago +23 -107 (Hol)

GLTA!

 

[DarrylParsons]

OK that was a pathetic showing but it's not time to fade myself just yet. We had a clear head going into this thing and we decided that we're not allowed to re-evaluate the strategy until we hit -10 units. If we hit that soon it could be a blessing in disguise for we may have found a good fading system. Remember that finding a way to lose big is just as valuable as finding a way to win big. We're not there yet, though, since we still have coin-flipping monkeys on both sides of us.

Anyway, for those who are brave enough to stay with me, here are today's plays:

Wednesday:

YTD 11-16-1 -5.84 units

James Madison +32 -108 (Pin)
UL Lafayette +19 -105 (IIS)

GLTA!

 

[DarrylParsons]

Well as the saying goes, every dog has his day and last night our dogs had their day as we had our first 2-0 showing of the season! It's about frickin' time!

Let's keep things rolling tonight with one fav and one dog...

Thursday's plays:

YTD: 13-16-1 -3.84 units

Texas Tech -8 -103 (Pin)
Tennessee State +17.5 -102 (IIS)

GLTA!

 

[DarrylParsons]

I think a lot of pros and sharps got burned on Texas Tech last night, and it makes me wonder if the Chinese mafia had something to do with it...but no excuses as we swallow a bitter 0-2 pill and try to make our losing streak just as short as the winning streak which never got rolling...

Friday's plays

YTD: 13-18-1 -5.89 units

Idaho State +4.5 -101 (Pin)
The Citadel +24 -103 (Pin)

GLTA!

 

[DarrylParsons]

A win and a push -- I'll take that any day of the week but I would assume many who took The Citadel won that game because the line went up to 25.5 by game time. Big card today and a chance to move into the plus column...

Saturday's plays:

YTD: 14-18-2 -4.89 units

525 Towson State +26 -106 (Pin)
530 Wake Forest -7 -107 (Hol)
546 Xavier +3 -112 (IIS)
549 Michigan +5.5 -104 (Pin)
592 Gonzaga +6.5 -107 (Hol)
601 W Carolina +22 -105 (Pin)

GLTA!

 

[DarrylParsons]

A good day yesterday as the good guys go 4-2. The Xavier game was interesting until the final minute...would have been nice to go 5-1...but there's no time for dreamland as reality waits for two more plays...

Sunday's plays:

YTD: 18-20-2 -3.08 units

Morehead State +23.5 -107 (Hol)
Georgia -1.5 -107 (Hol)

GLTA!

 

[DarrylParsons]

Another 1-1 day just so we don't get carried away with anything like a winning streak...remember it is very hard to go a very long time without a winning streak so let's have confidence we won't be able to do it....

Monday's plays:

YTD: 19-21-2 -3.15 units

Cornell +27.5 -107 (Hol)
Long Beach State +15.5 -107 (Hol)

GLTA!

 

[DarrylParsons]

There, that's more like it! Now we're batting .500 again and we have a great chance to finally get into that elusive plus column...

Tuesday's plays:

YTD: 21-21-2 -1.15 units

Indiana State +5.5 -103 (Pin)
Bradley -12.5 +101 (Pin)

GLTA!

 

[DarrylParsons]

Well we finally did it ... welcome to the plus column!!! We needed an incredible fluke out by Ind. St. but hey, I'll take it. Lord knows how many of those have gone the other way in the past so it's nice to have one go our way for a change. Let's see if we can muster up a little streak here...

YTD: 23-21-2 +0.86 units

Wednesday's plays:

Long Beach State +8.5 -106 (Pin)
Indiana U +1.5 -107 (IIS)

GLTA!

 

[DarrylParsons]

Well ladies and gentlemen...we are on a ROLL! 6-0 in our last 6 and 12-3-1 in our last 16...if that is not the definition of HOT then I don't know what is...just squeaked by on Indiana last night but a win is a win is a win and by any other name would taste as sweet, or something like that...let's keep up the cheer going into the holidays...

YTD: 25-21-2 +2.86 units

Thursday's plays:

Florida Int'l +12.5 +101 (Pin)
Stanford -16.5 -107 (Hol)

GLTA!

 

[DarrylParsons]

The sizzling heat continues over Christmas as our streak goes to 8-0 (last 8) and 14-3-1 (last 18). Any cappers out there hotter than that right now? Not sure but if so, there aren't very many...

Monday's plays:

YTD: 27-21-2 +4.87 units

Cincinnati - 11.5 EV (Pin)
Tulane +8.5 -105 (IIS)

GLTA!

 

[mr.obvious]

good luck

 

[DarrylParsons]

Welcome back Mr. O...you are a sharp capper so it's only a matter of time before the plus column finds you. GL to you too!

 

[Illini]

Darryl, you are on fire, my man. Hey, still looking for our first play for the WSOP team. I posted a suggestion in the main forum about Oregon St over Notre Dame. Looks like everyone so far has said they're okay with it, but nobody loves it. Let us know what you think, as you are probably the only pro bettor on the team.

 

[DarrylParsons]

Illini,

Thanks for the heads up. I made a post in your thread and I like the play so I'm in if it's official.

This streak is starting to become obscene...10-0 last 10 and 16-3-1 last 20. If you started following me when I was 13-18-1 you'd be sizzling like a firecracker. OTOH if you thought I was out to lunch and decided to fade me, well, you'd be looking like this by now:

Let's keep it alive...

Tuesday's plays:

YTD: 29-21-2 +6.87 units

Yale +14.5 -102 (Pin)
Weber State +16 -107 (IIS)

GLTA!

 

[DarrylParsons]

Well if these plays are monkeys throwing at a dartboard at least they're rockin' partyin' monkeys ... un frickin believable 12-0 run here and 18-3-1 last 22...let's make it 14-0 tonight...

Wednesday's plays:

YTD: 31-21-2 +8.87 units

Tennessee Martin +5 +102 (Pin)
Jacksonville St. +27.5 -101 (Pin)

GLTA!

 

[DarrylParsons]

Well nothing lasts forever and we proved it last night by ending the amazing streak. Still a respectable split so no cause for alarm just yet. Lots of games to choose from tonight so here goes...

Thursday's plays:

YTD: 32-22-2 +8.87 units

SMU +7 -104 (IIS)
Long Beach State +2.5 -106 (Pin)

GLTA!

 

[Kornholio]

great run darryl, i knew it would come. I was telling Illini that when you were down that i might hop on your plays, cause i figured a streak was comin'. Didn't bite though (my loss). Congrats on the streak keep the winners comin'.
