The Durito 500

I am Monkey. Actually that thinking is why I didn't play Central Florida today. While they rated out very high as well they haven't covered their last 2 games and almost lost their last game out.

I'm starting out with Missouri and then deciding on San Diego St since they don't play till 4. James Madison and Kent both play at 7 so no wait and see on them.
 
The challenge was I couldn't "PICK" 500 games and "SHOW" a profit. I never said or agreed to playing every game. If this bothers some of you so be it. I will start over and bet every game I post. It will take 3 years but if you think that's what you want, what the hell.

Oh and if anyone would read it says right in today's post that I AM NOT PLATING THIS MANY GAMES. Nothing it hidden so stop trying to make shit out of sugar.

Reno, you are correct with that. I rushed to get these done and never even noticed I left that part out. There are no MONEY LINES today and the lines posted were the current lines at time of posting and were all (-110). All are $100 to win $90 and will be graded as such.
 
MrMonkey, I ran every game on the board. Boston College rated out as -6,5 which at the time was only a value of 1 since the line was at -5.5. I am still refining this particular program and have nothing for home court built into it yet since over the holidays there were so many tournaments. If you were to factor home court into this game it would be closer to a 4 point value maybe but still just shy of what I like to use when available.
 
In my life I have never made this many selections at one time even if it was just for fun. It goes without saying I am not playing this many games even if it was $10 per but they all qualified as plays so I am using them all for the 500.

NCAA Basketball:

Syracuse -7.5
Hofstra +2.5
Missouri -4
Denver -1
California +1.5
Utah St -8
Texas A&M -6.5
San Diego St -11
Kentucky -5.5
Ball St +4 Ball St -4 NOT +4
Central Florida -8
Vanderbilt -5
Miami +3.5
James Madison -6.5
Kent +4
Iowa St +4
Wisc Milwaukee +3
Saint Marys -14.5
Fresno St +6.5
UC Santa Barbara +2.5
Davidson -1.5
Samford +1.5
Eastern Illinois -1
Montana -11.5


I didn't realize the mistake till now. Ball St was -4 not +4 and was intended to played as -4.

10-14 -$500 on the day and a combined 13 points cost me 8 wins. These were straight program plays as they all have been to this point and I haven't adjusted the program for home court yet. Also never realized it but all 24 selections were road teams. Will need to make some adjustments now that we are in conference play.

RECORD 31-23-1 (+$574)
 
NO PLAY'S TODAY

Only one game meets the minimum requirements in college hoops (Indiana St +1.5) and only one game lines up for an UNDER in hockey (San Jose/Anaheim) so I will pass today.

If you are considering hockey though a couple key trends to mull over.

* Tampa Bay won their last meeting with New Jersey but had lost 9 straight prior.
** New Jersey comes into the game against Tampa Bay on a 4 game skid.
*** New York Islanders have won 6 straight over Chicago.

I'm taking the day off and going to play golf.
