kev211 Posted January 20, 2015 Author Share Posted January 20, 2015 QUOTE (kev211 @ Jan 19, 2015 -> 03:58 PM) Took Hornets -5 Wizards -14 Hawks -8 Pacers +10 Bulls ML I parlayed each game with each game for a total of ten bets. Since the first 3 already happened I won my bet back. Hopefully the pacers cover or bulls win since I'll win 3 parlays on each. So much for sucking at NBA betting. Glad I hedged this.

ChiSox_Sonix Posted January 21, 2015 Share Posted January 21, 2015 QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jan 19, 2015 -> 04:27 PM) Can you list your bets you make? I watch soccer but I'm not very knowledgeable about it. I pretty much bet on any sport as long as I have some information. I like Burkina Faso today and the over 2 in Gabon/Congo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had 3 posts and have now had 38 shots through 2 matches and have yet to score Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boogua Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 Illini -3. I have been betting against Illinois for the most part recently (hit the IU ML on Sunday), but I feel like they matchup much better with Purdue than IU. Egwu should be able to stay near the paint, where he is a much better defender. Purdue isn't a great shooting team from the outside this year either (34% as a team). One of the starters, Aaron Cosby, has been ruled out for Illinois. If you have watched Illini games this year you'll realize that this is probably a good thing. The only thing to worry about is depth now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pettie4sox Posted January 22, 2015 Share Posted January 22, 2015 4 team parlay came through yesterday. All ML; took Grizzlies, Warriors, Cavs, and Pelicans. I'm going to take the Blazers and Clippers tonight at the max teaser amount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Against the celtics? Thinking about taking the Bucks, Bulls, Blazers, and Clippers at max tease. So in the end it's Bucks +1 (1/2) Bulls +15 (1/2) Blazers +3 Clippers -3 (1/2) Parlay.

It could affect the totals. Propositioned, yes. Players have still been investigated in recent years in the Championship, Serie A, national leagues in the balkans, etc...but coverage is so widespread and thorough now that it's not really something people should worry about in major leagues and events. Now, if you're betting on the 10th tier of English football, or the 3rd tier Albanian league or almost any domestic African league, then yes, you should not be surprised if something comes up fishy Edit: I'd be much more worried about someone (or official) being on the take in an NBA game today than a major soccer league.
