NBA Playoff Betting Strategy

NBA Playoff Betting Strategy In the second game of each series, if the Posted Total is the same, 1 point lower or higher at any number, [U][B]Hit The UNDER[/B][/U] as quickly as you can regardless of what the outcome of the first game was... Ok, you can talk amongst yourselves now...

interesting. tried and true?

If I ran the query properly for last year's playoffs you would have gone a respectible 10-18 on the over-under. Here is the query I ran: [B]season=2009 and date>20100417 and p:total-1total[/B] Sound about right BP?

The "system" says to bet it at any time. Also, you did not include the qualifier of this being a Game #2 in a series. There are only 15 Series 2 games each playoff season. I am surprised BP didn't mention that when you brought up the 10-18 record for last year.

[QUOTE=BigPappa;41759]I don't know the record last year. I think I made that pretty clear..[/QUOTE] Well, you said "you weren't sure".... I didn't think that was "pretty clear". If there are only 15 series 2 games each year, I would assume you would have made it more definitive regarding somebody quoting a one-year record with 28 game results. Just trying to protect people from believing that a system produced such a great record last year, because it is completely impossible to produce a 10-18 record according to your qualifiers. That's all.

My Bad. I thought he was quoting a 2 year since his query had a 2009 in it.. Should have read more closely..Busy today and jumping in and out of here and not thinking in the process..

My bad too. The query double counted games and did not include 2nd game qualifier. Last year's playoffs had a result of 5-9 (64.3% on small population) ov/un without the 2nd game qualifier and closing total. The revised query is: [B]season=2009 and playoffs=1 and H and p:total-1total[/B] Since 2006, the result without a 2nd game qualifier is 29-37 (56.1%). Query is: [B]season>2005 and playoffs=1 and H and p:total-1total[/B]

I do appreciate the strategy, BP, and your work, Hicksey. It will interesting to watch how it does this year!
