Lesson learend again, from WNBA Game, West Coast LAte Game You have to be out of your mind to bet the Eastern team in the 2nd half (or at all) when the game starts late:

Ok, I apologize for the past post, but I don't exactly spend a light of time on this stuff.
THis is a very seroius post.......along the lines of the 'betting audit' I suggested JK do......which of course he blew me off on.
However, as all serious CAnada Football buffs know, when Montreal travels to Vancouver, and we get that ridiculous 8 pm PST start time, it is a ridiculous edge in the 2nd half, since the other teams body clock is so off. Note, this DOES occur in other sports too......the Zags POUNDED Gtech in a late game start time in Vegas for example 5 years ago.
Bottom line, critical here to SPLIT UP YOUR BET and play some or most on the 1st half if you like the Central/East Coast team......given these gals likely were practicing during the day, this was a ridiculous unfair edge for the LA gals.........
The Viking girls looked tired late.....fatso point guard fell down late on a drive, couldn't get up. Late rebounds for the LAs sealed the deal......and this Candice gal parted the Vikings like they were the red sea late.
BASIC STRATEGY: East coast team going West, 2 time zones, AND a silly late start time 8 or 9 PST, 1st half only or pass.
EVEN BETTER when we get this scheduling dynamic IN THE FIRST GAME, since the teams aren't even used to playing/practicing in the evening (ok I know their must be exhibition games, but most of the preseason must be practices).
OF course the time zone stuff is EVEN BETTER with 9am PST games for the West going East (Cal @ Md the poster child in the NCAA football).
WNBA capping note: I wouldn't be fooled by this win. The Vikings ARE the better team.......LA just sucked out with the time advantage here IMO........back up the bus if The LA team goes to Minny in the next month, AND the game is an EARLY start time!
Also, total opens 162.5, closes 155.5
pps. gotta LOVE that mean looking NO8 on the Vikes.......should play for the Heat......a call goes against her, thought she might knife the ref by her facial expression.
THIS SHIT IS REALLY HARD TO WATCH........1st game I've seen since the Lady Spartan Pie Eaters GOT SMASHED in the NCAA finals .......
