Dr. Bob gave out WV over 146, so that is probably why the number didn't crash.

Thanks Coast. It's nice to supplement during the week this time of year. This was one that didn't lose value by the time I got it.

dr. bob is giving out hoops totals picks? Really? That's freaking hilarious.

hey gd...if it works for you, i may just delay my send outs to the boys in vegas to 5, 5:15 or 5:30. I put them out at 530 tonight. That's still 30 minutes ahead of the first starting games and much earlier than midwest and west coast games. i can post them on the board here, but the lines won't crash til 5:30....if that works for you guys, i'm happy to do it. I

Things go on line for me as of 5:30 so it might help if its no trouble to you.

If the line moves with your consortium picks, why are you not looking to manipulate activity? Make a book think you are going one way and when they adjust go huge the other way if it is a game you love.

The books are not moving on my action, they are moving on the big guys' action. If they were moving on my own action, I would give them a head fake. I could get the "consortium" to go along with a head fake I suppose, but there are limits to how much they can get down on any one play. So if they, for example, got down $50k on a play through their various outs..enough to move the line substantially...it is not at all certain they could go to the same places and get down $100k on the other side. College hoops totals are much different than football. The books will take only so much action on certain plays, then they close you off. Happens to me a lot. I can make only one max bet at a given number, then one other at another number. After that, I get the "Sorry you have already bet the maximum allowed on this game." Even the guys in vegas have to deal with that even with them actually placing their bets with off-screen books in Asia who have local credit reps (aka street collectors) in Vegas.

I've got a 2** tonight fellas, and as much as I'd like to hold this one as late as possible before I release it, I'm not sure that someone else won't give it out earlier and the line won't go much higher upon their release. This has already moved a few points from the open so I anticipate somebody is already hitting this hard. I still love it at this current number.

Double shot time. I like this one more than any i've seen in a week or two.

Creighton-Dayton OVER 128, 2**
Both teams are playing much faster than previous years' teams. Both have good defenses but can get out and score in transition too.

Bet with your head. Not over it.

I bet 2 units on over 129. At the half, I bet 1/2 unit on under 72.5. Very nice. Great success.

Season Record on Game Totals here: 20-9, +12.1

Two for Thursday, 12/11

507/508 St Joe-Villanova UNDER 130, 1*
Both defenses are better than their offenses and both teams are playing much slower than they have in years past. There should be fewer than 130 possessions and the strength of the defenses leads me to think we'll get less than 1 point per possession. I'm expecting something on the order of 120, not 130.

509/510 Miami Ohio-Wisconsin Milwaukee UNDER 128, 1*
Wisky Milk likes to play fast, but they'll get no chance to do that. Most Miami games are under 120 possessions and their defense keeps teams (especially offensively challenged ones like Milk) from being very effective. My over/under on Milwaukee tonight is 54. Miami hasn't scored 74 all year except vs. a 1-AA team. I don't think they'll get there tonight either. I see this one staying at or under 120.

When I played hoops, my favorite move was the head fake. I still love that move. But you gotta really sell it to be effective.
