Doosan is back. I'm seeing 9.5 at one of my books. Giddy up with the Keselowski win.

 

My Der Klassiker bets for tomorrow — Haaland +510 first goal and +105 for combined over 3.5 goals.

 

For Doosan totals, I'll just grab the lowest total I see when the lines open. Then, at the end of the night (before first pitch), I'll see if I can catch it tonight for a middle. I put 5 units on O9.5 -115. My other books are 10 Over -120 so their next step to 10.5. if I can get this at 10.5 (or even 11) later tonight, I'll try and middle it.

Dumb luck on Keselowski on my end but it was +1600.

Any time he's at least +800, I consider that good value on him. He usually wins about 3 circuit races a year.

As for soccer, with no fans, I'd blindly just take the OVER and look to pair it with a ML on the favorite. I believe we'll see it in soccer and, especially, the NBA playoffs. When a team that knows it has less talent is trailing, I think they'll be more likely to quit when playing in a vacuum.

 

I think NBA totals may not even be that far off from normal. The shooting may not be as good right away... but I don't think the defensive intensity will be as easy to pick up with no crowd.

I'll look for better teams but also younger teams that can get back in game shape quicker.

 

If they're really going to play 7-game series, I anticipate a whole lot of just picking favorites. Even more than usual.

 

Doosan didn’t get to 10.5. Bought four units back at 10. See if it hits 10.

 

5 in the 8th and give up 1 in the 9th for a 6-4 win.

Let me add that up. That’s ten runs. Middle.
