Has our hero hit rock bottom? He is hoping that his online sportsbook/poker accounts have hit bottom, but you can always go lower....They say that you have to hit rock bottom before you get help for an addiction, but if the addiction is profitable...

Tuesday Action

So far I've bet FLORIDA(-2)over tennessee, and I've parlayed
syracuse(-9)over PROVIDENCE, under 158. If you look at Syracuses' totals, you will see that they don't give up alot of points. I think this will need to be the case for them to cover here. The parlay pays 2.81/1.

Florida opened as a 4 point favorite. If the cowards at bodog would post a line in a timely manner, I could get a middle. That's okay, because Florida will win by 9 or 10.

It's probably safe to say that Kansas State is better than Texas right now. Having said that, Sports Objective was incredulous that UT would be favored by 6 over anybody on the road, as they were last weekend vs. Texas Tech. I bring this up because right now TT is a six point dog hosting K State. This line opened at four, so in this case we can blame bettors instead of the books. Still, since I can't get a middle here, the play would seem to be
TEXAS TECH(+6)over kansas state. Bodog won't post a total, so teasing is out of the question.

SOB recommends a thread where a cat named homedawg has been making some nice picks. Another guy on there recommends uner 162 on Syr-Prov. Where the fuck did he find 162? The highest I've seen is 159. Anyway, homedawg likes rutgers(+12)over SETON HALL, and he likes the under, but since the cowards at bodog aren't posting the total for this one, I'm stuck with rutgers(+12), while I really wanted to parlay this with the under.

I have some recent bad memories involving Louisville and Georgetown which leave me less than thrilled about touching their matchup. Since the 'Ville have had their share of low scoring games when they cover, I've parlayed LOUISVILLE(-4)over georgetown, under 141. Pays 2.73/1. Now they just need to avoid a repeat of their 91-89 win vs. Notre Dame, because that would be way over, and they wouldn't cover. SOB took the Louisville moneyline, which was (-165), but is now (-180) on bodog. Fuck that.

Did I mention that I won $$ on UCONN(+3)over west virginia last night? Well I did, as UConn tooka care of business at home, winning 73-62. Right now I'm just hoping WVU finds a way to stay overrated. I feel completely dialed in on the Mountaineers, not to mention Pitt.

Miami-Virginia opened with Miami favored by 5, and has since moved to 6. I really want to tease this back down, but bodog hasn't posted a total for this one. As bad as the Cavs have done, I really don't trust the U...ironic, since you can't spell trust without u....

Well, the U won and covered, not that that did me any good, 74-62. Meanwhile the parlays didn't exactly treat me right, as Louisville lost outright (while the under covered), 70-60, and Syracuse covered 99-85, the under failing miserably.

On the other hand, Rutgers lost but covered, 76-70.

Right now it looks like the Red Raiders will lose and fail to cover, as K State leads, 64-54, with 6:42 left to play.

It's halftime of Tennessee at Florida, and it's tied, 37 all. Florida jumped out to an early lead, but given the flow of the last 10 minutes or so, I'm happy with a tie, and failing to cover by only two.

Now it's K-State, 72-59. They just showed some highlights from that one, and the Tech crowd looked completely dead. If I knew K State would not face a hostile crowd I may have bet the other way. Of course, they probably deserve credit for taking the home crowd out of the game.

Given that Northern Iowa is ranked, fading them should have been automatic. I guess I still don't have them on my radar. While they have come back to within a point, they almost certainly won't cover the 9.5 or 10 point spread.
