    Bell won the Atlanta race Sunday. Played him and Byron in Daytona 500 last week. One week early on Bell. Did not follow up on Bell the following week in Atlanta.

    You are really locked in on this NASCAR

    Take some money from the bookies - they already have enough. 👍

    Thanks. Hope the early luck is indicative of future riches. It's a long way to the championship.

    I never tried to handicap NASCAR or watched the lines. I wonder if they have live betting or not?

    Must be gut wrenching when an accident begins to happen, and ya try following the carnage to see whether or not it affects your particular wager. Might be similar to steeplechase racing when horses fall down and ya hope your horse isn't involved.

    Only won my Daytona bet with Byron due to an accident. Late in that race my other play was Bell. Late in the race he was second on the outside and got taken out in a mishap. In Atlanta this past Sunday Larson looked like a winner and got passed on the last lap. It's never over till it's over in NASCAR. So many positions change in the last 20 laps. That's when the boys get serious and can be sure the caution will come out within those final 20 laps.

    I like Lafayette ML a little bit in the 7:00 game.

    Parlay with the extremely short odds lock, Duke ML game.

  • stevekstevek Posts: 29,604 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I like the Nevada ML and Gonzaga ML in the later games.

    Parlay as well.

    My NASCAR play this week is not filled with a lot of enthusiasm, due to the event being a road course race. 1 of 6 I believe this year. Not my favorite type of race. The play is Ryan Blaney for a top 5 finish. It's said gotta be in it to win it, or to lose it.😀

    Celts were down at the time of the bet and were positive money, Brooklyn was up over 10 and was at +500 so did a lil parlay dart action and promptly lost both sides of it

    I was following the Brooklyn game and saw where they were up early in the game. Brooklyn was around a 13 point dog before the game. They did wind-up covering the spread, but lost ground during the game and couldn't win the ML for ya.

    The Celtics on the other hand, they have been erratic this season in some games. I think they were around a 6 point favorite, and they wind-up getting blown out? Although the Pistons are hot, having now won 8 in a row.

    I know this sounds sick, but I would have hated to win the juicy part of a parlay, only to get screwed by the much easier part of it. So better the Nets lost for ya anyway, less aggravating.

    You have been knocking on the door with some nice odds parlays. I know you've hit some good ones in the past, and hopefully hitting another one is right around the corner.

    Thanks Steve, parlays are tough as your well aware!

    I like the Kansas City ML in the 8:00 game a little bit.

    I like Wright State ML in the 9:00 game.

    Also like San Diego a tiny bit in the 9:30 game as a +12.5 ML flyer for some inexplicable reason. With a spread saver. Could turn out to be a very ugly pick. LOL

  • stevekstevek Posts: 29,604 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I like Sacred Heart ML, and also Fairfield +1.5 in the 7:00 games.

    Parlay as well.

  • stevekstevek Posts: 29,604 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I like the Clippers ML a little bit in the 10:00 game

    Parlay of Clippers ML, Harden over 14.5 points, Zubac over 7.5 rebounds

    Harden shoots 5 for 22.

    What a stinking performance that was. 😒

    I never bet the NBA until the finals. Too much (insert you're word here).

    Okay, I'm a glutton for punishment, I admit it. 😆

    I again like the Clippers ML on the re-match of Friday's game against the Lakers.

    Maybe I'll like the same parlay again, I gotta think about it. 🤔

    Two wins in a row. Pretty impressive.

    He was my other play in the Daytona 500. Got wrecked, and then wins the next 2 when I did not follow up on him.
