  • On The 2009 NCAAW Tournament Hardwood

    Keeping everything in one thread for the tournament like past years. I pretty much bet this tournament exclusively & ignore the men's game other than a play here or there. The wagering options are not what they once were so I doubt I'll get 800+ wagers down & kill them like I did a few years ago. Either way it will be another profitable tournament! Anyhow...........

        They took OSU's big punches & hung around after starting out well. If they do end up losing by 20+, it will be from wearing down in the 2nd part of the 2nd H. I think they can keep this within 15 easily for the 1st 10 mins.

        I am not completely giving up on the outright but they will have to stay within 5-10 at the halfway point to really have a strong chance.

        No plays on the other 2nd halves.

            Montana +4 1st 10mins 2nd H -115

            I see this as a good time to take a stand on a good opportunity. Over the years one of the biggest sucker bets in basketball is betting on a big favorite in the 2nd H at a # that lets you win without them having to cover the full game #.

            This is the case as at -7.5, Pittsburgh is asked to win by 9 when the spread is 3.5 points higher. I have seen many get taken in by it. I've made nice bank over the years jumping on the opposite side here. It is not a lock by any means but I have won much more than I have lost.

            Plus the fact that Montana is not the least bit intimidated by Pitt, have not played their best, & still only down 1. They were very live to me going into the game & still are as I expect them to win outright.

            Nothing on the other 2nd H's.

              I apologize about Montana, I did not see an almost 30-3 type run coming on. As far as Kansas State goes, laying -500 might sound risky but in this case it is not. Drexel has played nobody & will get exposed for that by a battle tested Big 12 team in Kansas State. The Big 12 is arguably the toughest conference from top to bottom in terms of the tough games to be had especially on the road. They have more talent across all 5 positions than Drexel is used to seeing. This should be a wire to wire win for the Wildcats. If this game is even remotely close at HT, I will probably go heavy on Kansas State in the 2nd H.

                Kansas State -240 2nd H

                Gonzaga +160 2nd H

                Shady line on Xavier as the 5 point favorite just has to win by 1 to push & 2 to cover. Besides that, I think Gonzaga is the better team & is playing much closer to home. They are playing at their tempo & keeping the Musketeers in check. I think they pull away & win by 10-12.

                I am looking to go heavy on Marist in the 2nd H. They are not nearly playing as good as they could & are still up by 5 as I type this. Virginia already came into the game with depth issues due to their Senior PG being suspended. Now they are dealing with foul troubles as well.

                While they have the size advantage over Marist at most spots, they do not have the bodies to take advantage. Marist will win this game by double digits unless they totally tank. They should have been laying at least 6 as I said prior.

                  Marist +155 2nd H

                  Yet another shady line as the small favorite in Virginia does not even have to win to cover. Those types of lines usually do not pan out for the favorite. I will pass on the +3 & just take the ML as I think they win by double digits as I just mentioned.

                    UC Santa Barbara +7 2nd H -105

                    UC Santa Barbara +350 2nd H

                    Strict principal wagers here for the most part. UC Santa Barbara could not have played any worse in the 1st H shooting an abysmal 19.4%. The books are making the 22 point dog +35 for the game with this #.

                    Stanford tends to coast after getting big leads. They have proven their point as UCSB is not winning this game. They will take it easy in the 2nd H & be comfortable with a 18-20 point win here. So of course I am loving the +350.

                              Both teams being blown out due to turnovers & shooting a low percentage. I think both teams make a game of it in the 2nd H, especially TCU who will not lose by more than 25 in this game. I think it will end within 15-18 points when all is said & done.
