I show Columbia opening at -3.5 at home. Does this count?

Never mind. It's not AT Columbia.

LMU is down to -1. *sigh*

Central Florida was widely available at 2 or 2.5 until a few minutes before tipoff

IIRC, the line for this game started at PK so it doesn't count under the system anyway.

i'm on Loyola and NC Charlotte

Re: 2007-2008 CBB mechanical Home small faves System
 

Loyola doesn't count anymore, right? It's down to a pick.

Games started at PK don't count.

First line of post:
'Any home fave that opens at -1 or more'
Games Open at -5 or -15 do count, it's where they are when you *bet* [5 mins prior, 60 mins, etc]. If line drops from -6 to -1 at home, I want in at 5 pts better than LV opened it.

If Loyola is PK, do not bet it.

Daily Open lines can be found on SBR and elsewhere.

Virgin players always win.

Actual story: After losing a small bit fri nite at crapz, I guaranteed that anyone who played with me would win at least $500 at the $25 min table.

Thremp can give results.

Or maybe in a close game the crowd will get involved more?

the refs get more involved as well....maybe as a by-product

Travel, never having played in the gym before - is it a bandbox, dead floors, bad shooting gym, etc, may not be able to get game tape by early Nov,...
UVa plays at NC every year, so seniors have 3-4 games experience and know some of the quirks of gym, other players/coaches, etc.
Clemson rarely plays OOC at, say, Gonzaga. Okla at StJohn's, Wisky at Miami, off-court distractions may also play a role.

I think the refs have a noticeable impact in a tight, 2-pt game with <1 min left and you have Big 10 refs not wanting to hurt Mich St at home v SoIll, LDO.

As mentioned elsewhere, LINE SHOPPING IS KEY, don't take -3 when -2.5 [or -2] is widely available!

Dankhank:
I think that three of those games should be taken out of counting. UCSB game was played at Stanford, Loyola opened at 5, and Central Florida was widely available at 2 or 2.5 until a few minutes before tipoff.

[/ QUOTE ]

CFla opened at PK and UCSB doesn't count, so system has started 5-0 already, is that correct?

Re: 2007-2008 CBB mechanical Home small faves System
 

yeah, waiting for loyola to move off of a PK to -1 is smart...
