Celtics versus Knicks Preview
In the current New York Knick homestand they have seen Kobe Bryant come in and score 61, and LeBron James score 52. Now they are set to face the defending NBA Champs. However the timing could be right to face the Celtics. Boston lost in overtime last night 110-109 to the Lakers. This will be [...]
Lakers snap another Celtic Win Streak
As most sports fans already know the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Boston Celtics 110-109 in overtime Thursday night. This means the end of another Boston win streak, as this one is haulted at 12.
Trading on Betfair I was doing great half way through the fourth quarter. Here is what my book looked like:
I should stress the [...]
Lakers Celtics Betting Preview
Kevin Garnett is expected to return to the Celtics’ lineup as Boston will host the Los Angeles Lakers in a rematch of last year’s NBA Finals. However, the Lakers have injury problems of their own. Center Andrew Bynum will not play as he is out eight to 12 weeks with a medial collateral ligamnent tear [...]
The LeBron James Show
What an amazing athlete LeBron James is. He netted 52 points tonight in a 107-102 win over the New York Knicks. This guy looks like he is playing against little kids. His strides are so long and he explodes better than anyone. LeBron’s triple-double tonight gives him 21 for his career.
It was a pleasure [...]

Allen had 23 points while Paul Pierce had a game high 29 to lead the Celtics who were missing Kevin Garnett for the second consecutive game. This win gives the Celtics [...]
Golf Trading: FBR Open
Kenny Perry bogied the 72nd hold of the FBR Open to force a playoff with Charley Hoffman. Perry won the tournament by sinking a 22-foot birdie putt on the third playoff hole. There was a fair amount of liquidity while trading the winner market. As you can see below I did quite well, capitalizing on [...]
Super Bowl Trading on Betfair
Wow, what a football game! Back and fourth right to the end. For the first three quarters it wasn’t a good game to trade at all. However, the fourth quarter was a trader’s dream. Santonio Holmes and Larry Fitzgerald made it an amazing Super Bowl. It was without a doubt better than last year’s Super Bowl to [...]
Betfair Trading: Nets versus 76ers
With the New Jersey Nets trailing by 12 with ten minutes remaining in the fourth quarter in Philadelphia Vince Carter left the game with a sprained ankle. At this point you could get great in-play odds on Betfair for the Nets to win the game. The Nets did indeed beat the 76ers 85-83. Here is [...]
Super Bowl XLIII Preview
Where is the value on Super Bowl XLIII?
Both squads are playing great football right now. Arizona’s offence has been great for most of the year but just recently their defence has been playing well, maybe even above their head. They have been creating turnovers at an incredible rate. I think the advantage on defence still [...]
