I'm actually on my way out for the night, but i can give you quick reasoning.

quick "eye-capping" of the games last night had me leaning to Wash and Char both winning outright.

usually in football i make my own plays, in basketball 90% of the time I simply fade a few "friends" who play thru me. Because in long run they bet at bad numbers and taking too good to be true bets.

when a combination of my lean, and one of them plays against it, it becomes a definite play if not a big play for me.

also when my fades go on a lucky run and start winning, they usually increase the size of their plays. my fade has had ridiculous breaks go his way the past few days - and now he is pressing his luck going bigger on these tonight when I truly feel he is due to lose.

So in short, combination of how I capped the games, plus a fade that is IMO due to come back down to earth.

I hear that, especially when you're on the right side of the juice.

Big night tonight!
