NBA Wednesday

I've been reading about Sharp money and what people think it means. Everybody has their own definition, but simply this is professional money. What is professional money? Is it handicappers that make a living from sports wagering? Far as I'm concerned only professional money are the bookies. Traditional bookies in the States are still going strong and Off-Shore books have made things easier for these illegal books to offload the difference to balance the wagers they have taken. If there are games likely to take one way action the bookies can hedge these by taking early position. Balanced wagers are the only guaranteed profit for the books collecting juice. I've been around the block, but I have yet to meet a single professional handicapper that does nothing but wager on sports to make a living. Sure there are guys that wager daily, but they all have other income or investments and if they're high profile, so called, professional handicapper they tout for guaranteed money. That's all nothing mystical.

Moving on to Wednesday's game.
Magic is getting healthy and Hornets are coming to town. I give Hornets some credit for their last game against Miami and this game should not be much different with focus on the entire game. The bees at Orlando will likely see better scoring I like this game to reach 180's and that's what I'm playing.

NO/ORL Over 176 at -106 for 2 units(L)
---------------------------------------------------------
Playing against the line with GSW/BOS and this will be a short game.

GSW +0.5 First Quarter at +106 for 1 unit(W)
Bigger wager lost and that Over was lost in the first half. Warriors was a thriller and +o.5 was the winning difference. Stay tuned for Thursday.
1-1 -1.06 unit
