Re: FROG's NBA Regular season thread...
Updated record 7-4 (63%) +4.2 units. Winning days 3-2. Winning weeks 1-0.
Pretty sure record is correct but if I ever screw it up please let me know. Could have used the 5 cent juice plan ACE has since I split the last two sessions. I count those as nonwinning days because losing juice is not winning. No preseason record either. But what I want to emphasize is the longer term results are most important. I can handle losing days, but losing weeks are tough. This is one long season, after the preseason then post season so we have to remain focused on the ultimate goal, consistently remaining profitable. I could put all sorts of dollar amounts, $3,000 plays and other bs but that is marketing.
So I can pretty much recap this 6 day opening week.
The Good: Decent conservative start here. In real world went 6-0 for the week with a lot of fortuitous results. The Laker 6 on Kobe's return was the only way I would make anything that day. Yesterday I got pinned on a 76er money line that was not hedgible at the half, even with Shaq a nogo. So my good fortune continues.
The Bad: Bad timing on two of the losses, Atlanta, which has looked like world beaters since the crummy could not cover if we let you game and Celts over getting notched by a hoop when they are in a 240 game the next game. Timing is everything.
The Ugly: Yesterday I probably fumbled 3 to 4 times. I should have known Shaq was out, Don Best did not urgent message until game had went off, that sucks for $600 a month. But I know better and still did not know it, with the rest of the world. Obviously without Shaq the under play was dead from the tip. First time in a long time I botched a bet, naturally that won. I won't mention the book, but they have a real weak confirm screen, and I did not get a confirm even though I wrote it good. Again, my fault. Then I am working all of the numbers and I get most of the totals moving except the NOK game, which naturally middles because I missed it. I ended up going over 82 without any un 188 or 187, which were available. Not going to do well with those kind of amatuer hour mistakes, so I better get my act together.
You may think wtf FROG you went 6-0? That is hardly the point. Results mean a lot, but luck will not hold out. I need to be as mistake free as possible. I just slipped and tripped, maybe this 20+ day run has me a little slack, but I sure got a wake up call on that.
I called up SKY, griped about the free 1/2 point being gone. But clerk said management decision and it is bad form to get disgruntled with her, she is just doing her job. I could have requested to speak with management that made the decision, but I have more important things going on. Made my withdrawal and transferred bulk of funds to grandfathered IIS reduced juice sister shop. Also back in Matchbook per our union rep, thanks Jimmy. Have a lot of comm credits so I should have already been there. I don't like leaving best numbers out there.
Have been testing the waters on totals, and 2H's. Fair on totals, very good on 2H's. I sure hope someone out there took over and 76ers 2H yesterday. I see a lot of numbers moving with pretty good breadth. I will discuss that at a later time. I also am struggling posting the stuff I am getting because of it and because I want to build momentum rather than comeout guns a blazin.
Well, in a nutshell, can't complain about the start, but I still do, as I expect perfection on procedures. No excuses to half ass it. Life's been good to me so far...
