Down here in costa rica waiting for my nightly blow job appointment to get here and was killing some time reading this.
Have a couple questions for you.
Line opens at -6...during day it creeps down to 4 and then 2 hours and up to 30 minutes prior to tipoff line goes to 6...do you have any "steam" play with this game?
Seems like confusion with myself and alot of others what steam is and when steam occurs and confusion identifying steam.

Johnny B, we lucked out on this play.... No Iowa *did* keep the game within single digits at home after all (35-26 in 2H; lost by only 6 after losing by 15 at halftime; most important info here would be how No Iowa was a -3.5 home favorite, I guess).Johnny B said:
Congrats on the win. :toast:

You post about ucla total and stanford last night.
Last night Nebraska steamed from +7 to 5/5.5 and was blown out.
Ill Chicago was bet from +16 to +14.5 and also crushed.
W&M was bet from +15.5 to +13 and got buried.
Seems like instead of always following steam, this thread is picking and choosing when to follow steam and blindly following steam is ticket to the poorhouse. No fucken way id tell people to always bet games following steam.
earlier in this thread you said you prefer following lastminute steam and now you are posting you should grab the early move to 4 and ignore the late move to 6.

steam went somewhere around 9-3 last nite so you may need to go back check and by the way I don't care if it losses 10 in a row th next 2 nites. It is called gamblng and variance happens but I can almost promise you that over the long haul (key word) you will hit 55% if you get the good number.

if you can't grasp it don't get mad at me. Seems pretty simple and you seem like the one who is picking and choosing. Did you get N. Illinois +13.5 tonite (winner). I am gaining NOTHING by posting this so I am telling the complete truth. I have won at a 55% rate for cbb hoops season following steam and the Pinny lean for 1,500 bets. Please don't come in here and critique 3 games and tell me what you seen.
For your info I was at a meeting last nite (not happy about missing these either):
Austin Peay -1.5
under 135.5 Villanova
UNC Wilmington +8.5
Samford -4
W. Carolina -4.5
VA Commonwelth -13
Delaware +9.5
Wrigght st +5
under 130.5 Nebrasks
ST Peters +2
Look them up. Good luck
uppy:What is happening is that this is a science. You just cannot bet steam...you have to know a little more than just betting steam. There is a lot to it. Like anything else once you have it down you have mastered it and it may be easy. But it is not easy to people looking to learn. Ice did you get mentored is my question? SOmebody helped you which is important. Hard work.

no buddy I missed it. I have been doing quite a bit of work at nite for my real job latley. I try to have a wininning month and do everything in my power to see that happen. 7 straight winning non baseball months and counting so I have took my foot of the gas for Jan so to speak but still up 4k and I have not bet over $200 on 1 play.

real good question. I tell my partner (a guy I took under my wing) is that I like to teach people and really enjoy it but I think sometimes I think maybe assume they understand me a little more than they do.
I started scalping and mostly middling this time last hoops season as a poster (randy rohm) showed and expalined everythig to me. After a while I started to realize that I was beating the bad number way more than the good number so I asked around and few at Fezziks place (who IM'd me) and showed me some more tricks. I also read between the lines on a ton of posts as alot of guys don''t like to tell to much. They bascially said just bet the bad number (the one that moved). I then watched the Fezzdaq everyday. There was zero capping involved in that.
Go to the search function and look up Pinny lean to learn more. As for steam plays you need as many tools of the trade as you can get it makes your life alot easier. Dual monitors, dynammic lines, lots of outs, square books, line service and decent bankroll help. Can't stress 2 monitors enough. Like I have said earier practice scalping/middling and you will get way better. If it makes you feel better my partner has failed to make these bets online and I have just let him be in charge of calling locals only. If you have a local you willbuyr him if he is not up to date with line moves.
