At Joe Duffy’s Picks, winning streaks always have and always will outnumber the losing streaks since I went public in 1988. No better time to lock in long-term as the bookie gets payback for a rare losing streak. We have said many times about the importance of counterintuitive reasoning. Today, “conventional” thinking wins out. One in college basketball exploits the unique situations that back-to-back tournament games offer. Hint, hint.

Today, we have three winners for free, all on the same fantastic, yet recently slumping angle:

LA Clippers-Portland OVER 233

Denver-Minnesota OVER 228

Milwaukee-New Orleans OVER 228

All of the above fit into When a math total has a large enough difference to the posted total, we use the oddsmakers knowledge against them. Because we store each over and under differently in each sport, the over and under angles will have different records, but in reality one could combine them for an overall record. The over version goes over at a rate of 1127-847. It’s had a rare, very rare skid lately, so weighing it a bit less and not an almost-automatic premium play.

But years of winning assure me top metrics almost always bounce back. Odds from Betonline, home of the opening line
