2-0 +200 in the SuperBowl, +700 2005 YTD...

I usually wait until mid February before plunging into Hoops plays. I track power ratings, matchups, etc and usually fare pretty well in College Hoops from mid February through March Madness. I will rarely post an NBA regular season play, but have a solid track record in the NBA playoffs.

I'll be in Daytona this weekend, and can't wait for the NASCAR season to get underway.........

+700 2005 year total in all sports....
+3445 2004 year total in all sports....
+9475 2003 year total in all sports....

---------------------------------

2* KENTUCKY WILDCATS -4 -105

*Analaysis:

This one is by the book. My (beloved) Gamecocks usually cover in Lexington early in the year, then get rolled in Columbia. I expect domination from the Cats............

My power rating have KY by 7.5, I think the margin will be more......

KY 74
SC 57

---------------------------------

2005 College Football (2-1 ATS +190)
2005 NFL Playoffs finished (5-1 +510)
2005 College Basketball (0-0 +00)

Everything,

Yes, I have been playing (those picks) but only about 1/10 to 1/4 unit. I don't bother posting a play on my "card" unless it at least a 1 unit play....

Hook. You're doing well.. I just wanted to hear you are playing the games.

I have action on lots of games.. figure I'm gonna have more winners than losers weekly, so let The Sportsbook calculate my Total.

Everything,

You've been awesome. Keep it up. Fact is I can't go back and site my record in the contests that I posted ONLY on this forum.

I have posted my plays, in my own thread, and tracked the record on this and 3 other forums for the last 3 years. Unless I post it in my own thread, and on all of these forums, I do not count it in my year to date total.

I won 95 units in 2003.
I won over 44 units in 2004.

I don't have wacky 20* or 50* plays. I achieve the above totals with 90% of my plays as 1* or 2* plays. A 5* is a Game Of The Year play for me, meaning it is my largest wager of the year in that sport.

My last 10* GOY was a College Football GOY featuring a 1 point underdog that won 63-17! Those plays don't come along often, and I don't press like a sports service does. I do this to make money, I do, and I always will.

The majority of my action is scalping and middling. When I do have a play on a "side" I have good reasons, and I share it (after I make my wager) on this and other forums.

Keep up the great work!

Hook
