nice pick on the knicks last night. I was skeptical about it but I follow your best bets and cashed on that one
Wish they were all that easy
Thanks for the feedback its very helpful keep up the good work
Thanks for watching and commenting

Thanks for watching Paul
Appreciate your work đ Steve!
Appreciate you watching... thank you!
Love the info thanks
You bet!
I watch this every day keep it coming
Thx for the video Steve. The past few games have been getting tougher to cash on but letâs see what happens tonight.
Less games remaining, so lines are getting sharper.
@@stevemerril3086 steve do you ever stop on playoff games? I always wondered what you would be looking at to you start to balance the end of seasons into a single season. I am guessing you are confident until the finals. Thanks as always
@@stevemerril3086 also wanted to say thanks, I learned about the Pythagorean Expectation recently from your best bets. Had never heard of that before. I am going to build a model to come up with the optimal exponent variable , one book I have read talks about it being ~20 for basketball
Cashed in with NY and WNBA Connecticut 1st half and game. Today, I will play OKC, and in WNBA Atlanta with Chicago is a lean. GL (PS: hit that like button folks!)
Thanks Shoch... hitting that LIKE button is fun and healthy!
I really appreciate all the work you do Steve. It's helped me tremendously and as soon as I have the money, I will buy one of your packages.
Looking forward to having you on board... keep building that bankroll!
Very good data yesterday helped out in cash outs thank you
Awesome to hear!
Huh ! Yesterday : Steveâs wrong picks : Indy / NY ov , Devincenso pts ov , , Minn sp , game un, Denv tm tot un , A Gordan pts un , Edwards pts ov !!! Right : Knicks , & Towns pts ov !! His picks stunk & lost $$$$ !!
Youâre right! But in Steveâs defense at the beginning of the playoffs Steve was nailing everyone of his picks. EVERYONE
You mean every one⊠not everyone
The later the series the harder the pick. First 3 games are cake imo
I donât know about you, but I have won so much money off of his pics not every single one of them I take, but I hear them out⊠especially with football man heâs a beast. You can say what you want, but my pocket tells me differently specially when I cash in.
I havenât had particularly good luck with any of my bought picks. Bought his NBA this week and not looking promising so far. I always seem to get handicappers in the regression after a winning streak.
@martybeis5047. It because heâs not analyzing the games at all. Let me know if you want to start winning. No charge at all in the beginning.
Hi Steve thank you again for yesterday. Do you think that the Yankees will take it again today . Thank you
preciate you my boy
Thank you!
Great pick last night Steve. I played on the Knicks but skipped on the Timberwolves. Let's get a great pick today!! Thanks Steve.
Knicks played out nicely
@@stevemerril3086 Yes sir they did.
You a wonderful job
Thank you!
Letâs get this comment section going for Steve! Jordanâs the GOAT undeniable
Hard to argue against Jordan... that was a heated topic though last week - LoL
Steve!!! great call on the over for the points and towns! won 75$ with those picks
Awesome... good luck tonight Daniel
i took knicks live to win by 21+ sometime in the 2nd quarter and took denver live to win -10, finally turned 75 into 300....teddy almost got me pushing that wolves 1h bet i took it and lost 100 but then double downed on nugs they were looking too good and ant man couldn't score...lets keep it going
Nice blowout win by the Knicks
Im thinkig about joing guys but im limited to player props in my state. No spreads money lines yadda yadda.. still worth it?
Beast Mode!!
Boom!
Good evening Steve itâs Thursday night after the game on NBA I just wanted to thank you for your unbelievable picks . I looked at the other CZcamsrs that I use to follow and the predictioned that the nuggets would win . But because I donât follow anyone else but you I won big time today over $75.00 profit . I hope the guy that made a bad remark takes it back . STEVE PLEASE keep up the good work. I am building my bank roll so I can purchase your packages. God bless from Canada Quebec
Great vids u gotta listen though u sneaky fox đđđ can't afford WT but love the knowledge how bout some wnba contentđ€đ€
Lots of great FREE content indeed in these videos... keep watching!
Steve has Kyries role changes in this team. During the season him and Doncic were the only 2 allowed to shoot the ball.
Now it seems his role as a PG has completely changed
Hey Steve, I bet just for fun and the excitement. I might make another bet on the Mavs game. What do you think of this parlay? What would you change?
I think Doncic missing FT will have him motivated, so....
- Luka over 27.5, 3.5 3s, and 9.5 rebounds.
- Gafford over 9.5 and 1+ blocks
- Washington over 2.5 3s
- Irving over 5.5 assists
- Holmgren 1+ blocks
I lean most Over props in Game 5 tonight, so I'd agree
@@stevemerril3086 cool. Thanks for the reply!
Ya I never would pay. I like to listen to figure out what to not do
Good Order, letâs get some cashđ”đ”đ”đđżđđżđđż
Good luck tonight!
Good call w the knicks!
Cashed a WNBA ticket last night too letâs goooooo!
Will be an exciting WNBA season... more than ever this year
Who covers wnba pivks

Thank you!
i like dallas ml tonight + the over total
@dranksippinryan, good luck with your action!
Why dallas
What % of your best bets would you say are totals on average?
Vast majority of my football and basketball Best Bets are Sides... probably 90%+
Bro the over on OKC is not looking good
Hope u do better than yesterday , Steve đ§
Don't know where you got Williams at over 19.5 points?? My bookie has it as over under 20.5
It depends on the book, I'm sure people can find either.
Boston first half and full ml, mavs +4.5
@drewski1298, good luck with your action!
Only capper to watch on you tube! Real close to buying all sports package!

With you on Kyrie, road game makes me think Luka and Kyrie gotta step up more, Luka hobbled, come on Flat Earther! Thanks for videos Steveđ€
Thank you @zacharywhite6801 for tuning in and taking the time to comment!
Thanks for watching!

I agree
Money!! $$

Let's go Celtics big win!
I agree
Really?
Wow that Celtics game 98-113 that 15.5 spread it's always that hook that get you it's like they know have me wondering đ€
I am losing betting this guys plays.
2.9 units on Celtics to win both halves -145
Makes sense... Boston or pass for me tonight.
Game 5 in a 2-2,series is close as you can come to elimination game! Winner of game 5 in 2-2 wins series 83% of the time!!!!!!!
đđŒ
Thanks for watching!
Celtics win by 20+ with or without Mitchell. Think Dallas squeaks it out in OKC too. Last time Luka looked like himself was game 2 in OKC
@MeechyDarko1223, good luck with your action!
@@Wagertalk appreciate it! Couldnât do it without you guys, thank you!
@@MeechyDarko1223 Thanks for watching!
Really?
@@MeechyDarko1223 I had to quit betting this guys and Bender Wins they are getting me crushed this month.

Best bet of the day is going to be Luka Over 27.5 -125. Going all the way back to when he first made his playoff appearance. Whenever he had a terrible game and scored 20 or less points AND lost the game. He always bounces back STRONG. There have been 4 occasions his entire career where this has happened and the following games he scored 43, 42, 42, and recently 29 game 2 OKC. Averaging 39 ppg. This upside player spot reminds me so much of the recent one I discovered with Anthony Edwards whenever the twolves lose by 20 plus he comes back the next game averaging around 35 ppg with his two three recent games dropping 40 plus. Which lead me to sprinkle on his 40+ points prop for +500. Today I am hammering Luka Over 27.5 and sprinkling on the 35+ and 40+ points.
@G-Units777, good luck with your action!
Luka may not be totally healthy. His last 4 are 19/29/22/18.
@@paulweeldreyer7457 so far on offense he looks freaking great. Itâs on defense were u can tell he isnât playing good. Just letting people drive right by him
@@paulweeldreyer7457 cash the over 27.5 đž
Boston just isn't as good as their record shows and most of the league is weak, otherwise they are nothing special. I don't believe it when some people say Boston can turn it on when they want. They shoot way too many 3s, and so many times go 1-1 while the rest of the players just stand there and watch. Then there is nobody near the basket to rebound. Love to see them get knocked out of the playoffs.
Playoff bball. Let's go Steve.
Boom!
Boston -16 is hard they could lay down in the 4th w starters I like the half better
Celtics can win large... if they want to.
@@stevemerril3086 they could definitely you gonna lay the pts?
What if it is fixed?
đ°đ°đ°
Thank you!
Boston -16, okc vs dallas over 213, kyrie irving over 5.5 assists, pj washington over 2.5 3 pointers. No prop play in boston game. Good luck. Big Daddy
Is that pajama Washington ?
Pajama Washington is crazy đ€Ł
Can the cavs win today?
Not likely
Why not?
Steve. Celtics TT O 1st Half đ°
@TD-fq2qd, good luck with your action!
What do you think??
Tatum O 25.5
Horford O 6.5
Mobely O 13.5
Strus O 9.5
Brown O 21.5
Assist
Garland O 5.5
Tatum O 4.5
Reb
Garland O 3.5
I know you always wish luck steve I want your take on my prediction
@Morose999, good luck with your wagers, and thanks for tuning in and commenting!
Thank you!
Ķyrie Irving always lets me down he's not consistent. He can't take over the game when he wants to against a good defensive team.
Pleeeeease Steve we need you to have a perfect day. Ouch!!
Since you really want a perfect day... I will try... LoL
I noticed all these people from this channel give the same info.... In other words get x amount of viewers/subscribers to bet what we say so we can win the opposite of what we agreed too.
Levert is out too !! Cavs are cooked
Don't play player props. It's a coin flip.situation at best. IMO.
Hopefully we have a bit better of luck today unfortunately your nba bets over the last 2 days have been a bit disappointing good luck for today people
These games are all toss-ups
I think you're in a little slump you need to go ahead and talk to Ralph. See what he's got going. Maybe you can make it a big turnaround. I had three losers last night overs and the under. But I still love you
MJ was the man back when guys drank beer and smoked cigs at halftime
Jt over 20 points
Celtics ML
Over 204
@GTAMW3., good luck with your action!
@@Wagertalk no luck đ just analysis đ§
Wolves gotta get out they head to snatch both of these wins đđŸđđ€ŠđŸââïž
Please stop sending out baseball pics they all loose!
Yes I have had enough
This guy is on one hell of a losing streak. Be aware. Mostly losing by double digits.
Knicks last night? He smoked that pick by double digits too. Id double back on that math
Nobodyâs perfect bro! Cold streaks happen, itâs about long term consistency which he clearly has.
I agree with you on the cold steak comment 100%. Iâm just stating the obvious here, hope it improves. Not much confidence though when the play released for today has no series data backing it and is essentially unplayable.
Cold streak, I meant.
this person has only been on here for a few days obviously.
With all do respect, why would someone ever pay for picks when nothing is guaranteed? Do you go to the store and buy something hoping it's gonna be good or because you know it is. And at such a high price...$7 a day for your picks is crazy when they might not hit. If I'm ever gonna pay it's gonna be for somebody who never looses, because doesn't that make sense?
Paying someone that has a winning track record over years and years in sports betting makes sense. Finding someone who never "loses" (not "looses") is an impossibility. I never want to hear a f***ing idiot such as yourself discussing what does and doesn't make sense ever again.
Don't talk about how to spend money when you are clearly smoking the cheap drugs with whatever it is you just typed upđ€Łđđ€Ą
highest NBA hit rate amongst cappers right now, if you buy picks thinking not one will lose, youâre in the wrong space and should get out while you can!
Even if the picks donât cash, he send you other picks for free thats a guarantee & will cash. Stop being cheap!
With all due respect* Steve Slander will not be tolerated
