The PLAY: Portland Trail Blazers +16.0 (-110)
Blazers vs Thunder NBA Free Pick
The Angle: The Oklahoma City Thunder have, not surprisingly, dominated this series in recent seasons, winning nine of the last 10 meetings. The Blazers are 6-4 against the spread in those games though, and lost by just eight as an 11-point underdog when hosting OKC a month ago. The Thunder are 2-4 against the spread in their last six as they've been asked to cover bigger and bigger numbers. I'm siding with the underdog in this one.
The Bet: BLAZERS.

Consultant Bio
Mike "Moneymaker" Lundin's experience as a professional poker player has proven to be an immeasurable asset in sports handicapping. He's a numbers guy, with a keen eye for spotting trends and stats that just don't jive with the odds offered by the bookmakers. All Mike's plays come with write ups backing up his selection, giving you a glimpse into his process of breaking down games.
----Bankroll Management----
Mike rates his plays between 2-5%, with the 4% & 5% plays being “Top-rated” plays.
2% = Free picks and low-confidence / high-variance plays
3% = Regular plays - most plays will be given a 3* rating
4% = Top Plays = Play of the Day and other top play releases
5% = Max Bets = Game of the Week, Month, and Game of the Year releases
Just as in cash game poker, the goal is not to win that giant pot once in a while, but to build your bankroll slowly and steadily by identifying +EV situations to exploit.
----Handicapping Methodology----
As a former online poker pro, Mike knows the value of creating systems and winning formulas through statistical analysis and math to use as a baseline, but much like poker, sports are played by human beings with emotions and feelings.
Identifying letdown spots, bounce-back spots and situational betting in general plays a big part in Mike's success in picking winners, but he's also not a stranger to locking in a bet based on stats and trends alone.
