After taking a beating this NBA finals I've decided to seek the holy grail and put too many units on the dreaded ML.

-290 (Yes, it's already moved)

After David Stern felt it necessary to do a series of big market radio shows to defend NBA officiating, I smell a big time correction game 6. If Dallas doesn't get love tonight, Cuban will have to sell his house to pay all the fines he'll receive from 5 months of official bashing.

Also, no one will have a problem with this series going 7.

Pray for me fellas.

not sure what this means but he is paying almost 3 to 1, which i consider to be quite alot of juice for such an evenly matched game. This is the type of juice you pay when the white sox are playing the royals. Alot of people are taking this route tonight which could spell disaster. i would wish you good luck but i have the heat + 180 for the series :suomi:

bmore, if you REALLY don't know what he means when he sais you don't pay juice if you win, then in my opinion, you should quit gambling...........Just a thought.......now think about this..........when is the last time you paid juice on a bet that you WON? And if this is the case, and you insist on continuing to gamble, then I REALLY want to be your bookie.......:fatboy:

I'm just messin with you.........

Good luck to you and all......Ricardo

In reality the winner does pay the juice technically, two people bet opposite sides 110 to win 100, 220 dollars bet ,the winner gets 210 dollars and the bookie takes his 10% from your winnings. The loser pays only what he bet, 110 but the winner risked the same amount to win only a100. I call it built in punishment for winning. I know your thinking this sounds stupid but use the number 110,000 and how stupid is this, thats 10k of your money just to hold your bet and believe me when your betting those kind of numbers you know who's payin the juice.

Obviously you don't PAY anything if you win but to risk 350 to win 100 is stupid. that is a ridiculous price to pay on a team who is not even more talented than the Heat.

Its is not stupid if a team has a 90% chance of winning... or even a 4 to 1 chance of winning. I would say in this situation Dallas has about a 75% chance of winning, maybe more. I would lay almost twice as much.

-290 you must have played that last night as the line at Pinny is now -343. Played it myself last night -300 just don't see Dallas losing this one. Hopefully it will be a non-sweater for us.
