Well, 1H, NY -3, cashed before anything else processed, but ya, a disappointing 3-2 on the night..one bad quarter in NY (32 combined points scored) cost the Over, which still, only stayed under by 6 points. And in effect was the difference between what should have been a 4-1 night, and the 3-2 night that it was. I'll take the above .500 night, and the small profit, and look ahead to tomorrow, though. I'll go through a stretch like this every year, with every sport. Trick is to bounce back, stay patient, and get another solid wining streak going.
Nice to hear from you Paddy
Hope you had a profitable night,

well good luck tonight...btw I played the newyork over last night the middle theory had some value but was forced to dish off the whole play in the second half since there was only a 2 point middle avaible to grab...so ended up just costing some juice which i have already payed back with a couple of your previous winners
thanks again
thanks again
2-2, split tonight.
A disappointing 2-2 tonight. Rockets played great basketball, and deserve alot of credit for their performance. They played tonight's game with a high level of confidence, and got a big boost from McGrady and Artest, who combined for 39 points, in their return from injury. Rocket's excellent passing, was key in this one. It led to wide-open shots all night, specifically from beyond the arc, where Houston shot almost 50% for the game. The first quarter, is, where the story is best told. Rockets shoot almost 70% from the field, and nearly 70% from beyond the arc in the opening quarter, to force Detroit to play in an uphill battle type of game for the rest of the night. Again the key, for the Rockets was excellent ball movement. The rest was history, as they say. Pistons showed heart to keep it close, but too little too late, and the Rockets pull off the W. Both plays in the Pacers game, cashed, to deliver the split on the night, for the 2-2. I cannot say that I am not disappointed, but I will take the split and move on. Need to be patient, through this slump.

mr N you said it best. I've been see sawing the past 5 nights and today broke out. Thats the forumula and you spelled it out very nicely for all. "Avoid hits and then wait on the day to move forward it can only be done with patience." Good cappers like you understand that and thats another thing i apreciate about you (that and the way you can print so well its like reading poetry)
Like I've said before, ur posts are alway appreciated..
I, remember, you saying you were a hockey fan,
How about the NHL All-Star game today? 12-11, final score, with 10 total goals scored in the 2nd period? 2nd highest combined score, all time, in NHL. The shootout, as always, was exciting. Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews also connected late in the 3rd, for what was a key goal, and that was good to see, being from Chicago and all. As far as gambling, the Over was already in the books at the end of the 2nd period, when it was 8-8
Good game for hockey fans, and a good game for my pocket..too bad Crosby didn't play..
Glad to hear you "broke out" today, and thanks again for the words..patience is key, if you are in this for the long run..

Imo, New Orleans injury situation, should be a cause for concern for them in tonight's game. With West and Chandler out, New Orleans has been struggling to defend the paint, they gave up 52 points in the paint when they recently played the Timberwolves, and lost as a result. That does not bode well for the Hornets, considering that Philly averages near 40 ppg in the paint, and has their best post player back on the floor, in Elton Brand. Giving up easy buckets in the paint, will make it difficult for any team in the NBA to win games. Philly on the other hand, comes into this game, hot, as they have been playing great basketball of late. They are 9-3 in their last 12 games, and have beat some good teams along the way. Tricky situation to say the least for those interested in backing the Hornets in this one. What Hornets backers do have working in their favor is a low line, the fact that they are playing at home where they have played great basketball all year, and Chris Paul who can take over a game. Imo, New Orleans will have to shoot the ball very well in this one, to pull off the W against this hot Philly team. Leaning on Philly plus the points. But dont go against what you feel and think, it is your hard earned money that will win or lose. Hope this helps.
Good luck tonight,
Z
